A small, multicolored plush ball (red, green, yellow, and black) sits on a rough, sunlit asphalt surface, casting a long shadow to the lower left.

You know the nineties are back when you live across from the high school and you find a sad lonely hacky sack in the street.

Screenshot of a tweet by Aaron Rupar showing a Fox News clip labeled “Audio from inside the Supreme Court.” The graphic displays two headshots: U.S. Solicitor General John Sauer and Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch. The tweet quotes an exchange where Gorsuch asks whether Native Americans would be considered birthright citizens under a legal test, and Sauer responds hesitantly, saying he would need to think it through. The lower banner reads “Court hears citizenship case w/ Trump in attendance” and “Supreme Court oral arguments.”

How it's going at the Supreme Court for the birthright citizenship hearing. #SupremeCourt #BirthrightCitizenship #IndianCountry

Thank you for being here 💛 4/4

Please read this gift article about the four Army Reserve officers killed in the Iran Conflict.

May their memory be a blessing and their bravery never be forgotten, along with the other two, yet to be named American service members that were killed.

Clear plastic cup filled with an iced layered matcha latte, showing white milk at the bottom and vibrant green matcha blended above, topped with ice cubes on a café countertop.

One of this month's special drinks at Småstad Coffee Roasters in #Sonoma – matcha Earl Grey latte. As a tea drinker this is a mind blower. The Earl Grey is added using housemade Earl Grey syrup. Soooo good. 🍵 smastadcoffee.com
