The missing Nobel laureate reminds me of being lucky enough to chair the late, great Seamus Heaney at Edinburgh's Int. Book Festival. When he was given the honour he was ubiquitously described as being up a mountain. He said that was rubbish. "I was in the pub."

It’s hard to overstate how deeply weird it is the way so many people have committed themselves to sanctifying this sundowning grandpa.

Apparently it's illegal to put your mug on a coin. But why would Trump give a toss about the law of his land?

Rodney Taylor still needs our help!

He’s still locked in an ICE camp.

He’s still going without his new prosthetic legs.

He’s still facing deportation to Liberia.

He’s still having necessary disability accommodations ignored.

Please keep sharing his story. Public pressure works!
