I stumbled upon these books by accident mainly because I liked the narrator’s voice on the Libby app (Justine Eyre). What I found was a delightful series about the logical men’s society and the dangerous women they encounter in these tales told by Cathy Maxwell. Just be sure to read them in order!

Another gripping novel by @tkingfisher.com that will have you standing up and cheering for the protagonist, who is way overdue for a break in life. And for the people around her, who show her the true meaning of family. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Swiftie Dads doin’ their thing🥲
In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

This video by Kristi Noem is not nice. It is fake and that's not the real Santa at all.
Many grownups have let Santa know what Ms Noem did and we are told that she is very very very much on the naughty list!

Imagine interviewing a victim of torture and independently confirming the details of his torture and then being told you can’t broadcast it because the people who ordered the torture wouldn’t give their side of the story.

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense
One explanation for Bari killing the story is that she did so as a public act of fealty to the administration. But another is that, as an inexperienced journalist, she doesn’t understand that a refusal to go on the record is a kind of comment in and of itself

In a national address, US President Donald Trump claimed the Gaza truce he helped broker brought peace to the Middle East “for the first time in 3,000 years.” Trump’s statement comes despite ongoing Israeli ceasefire violations and near-daily attacks on Gaza.
