Democracy.
Also our now governor, Mike DeWine, was attorney general, and he promised it was a big drug cartel murder, which we should all remember. (Spoiler: not a big cartel hit.)

I really loved Sarah Jean Horwitz's newest middle grade fantasy novel, Falling to Fairyland. Classic fairy tale feels, but with fantastic surprises, and a search for self identity and acceptance that is really, really needed in modern times. Definitely recommend!!!
👀👀 Ohhh, we loved The Dark Lord Clementine!
My next middle grade novel, A WISH WITH WINGS, comes out next month. It’s earned three starred reviews so far, and features a fierce girl who is proud when others call her feral.

United States Ambassador To Italy Mrs Clare Boothe Luce Listens To The Words Of Pope Pius Xii,During An Audience At The Pontiff'S Lakeside Summer Residence.13 October 1955
American conservative politician Clare Boothe Luce converted to Catholicism in 1946.
In a 1953 meeting with Pope Pius XII, she was fiercely lecturing the pontiff on the Church's moral duty to fight communism when the Pope finally interrupted her.
"You know, Mrs. Ambassador, I am a Catholic too."
My guess would be a tremendous about of burping.
