40) Excellent report from on candidates who have little to say on the extreme heat experienced by many Americans in the South, a geographical base of party support.

While GOP candidates acknowledge that is real, they’re unwilling to acknowledge the impact of

There's a powerful story today on , the public non-profit news from the US, on Ukrainian mothers crossing the front lines into Russia to recover their children, after not hearing from them for many, many months.

"Since the start of Russia's invasion, nearly 20,000 Ukrainian children have been transferred to Russia or Russian-controlled territories."

It's hard to imagine the emotions of these reunions.

I rarely watch any of the “news” channels. The only I watch with any consistency is which does quality reporting and interviews which thankfully lack the mosh pit incivility all to prevalent elsewhere

Huh, I've heard people say "unless you've been living in a cave for 500 days with no contact with the outside world for a social isolation experiment," but I didn't think that was a thing people actually did.

PBS NewsHour briefly covers Spanish athlete emerging from cave:

Tom from Oklahoma, Katie from Texas, and Gini from Italy got me thinking about inequality here at home and how more people could reach the American Dream if we were more open to learning from other countries.

I just watched your story about Texas's new law which restricts the availability of birth control to young people which was previously available under Title X. Your story raised many important questions (I think you should explore them all). But I'm surprised by the mindset of your piece, that all
teens are obviously sexually active. Considering that abstinence among teens was assumed & controlled for generations, all over the world, under many religions, why do we assume that's "impossible"? What abt our culture/times/beliefs makes us think that? I'm not opposed to birth control access. But this attitude was PROMINENT in your piece. Pls explore.

At 20 years old, Frederick Douglass escaped to Newport, Rhode Island, but couldn't stay there because it was a slave state. From there he went to New Bedford, Massachusetts, which had a large, free black population. Massachusetts had ended slavery in 1783:

I think for February I’m going to attempt a mental cleanse / reset of sorts. For the rest of this month:

• I’m going to stop watching local TV news in the morning, and instead rely on / and .

• If I get an itch for TV News, it’s going to be only

• Avoid political soundbites as much as I can, too much hate right now.

• Work on my costs app at least two times per week

• Reach out more socially on for discussions instead of Reddit
