My cousin lost his job with USAID - his particular focus was the rehabilitation of child soldiers.
It's funny because it's true.

JUST IN: Viktor Orban conceded his defeat in Hungary.

Looking up Artemis II splash coverage this morning on Instagram and, wow, there are a LOT of flat earth accounts out there...
it's crucial to understand how systematically surveillance companies like Flock just ignore the requests and demands of local governments they contract with; once you've signed that contract, you lose so much control

Gonna wear my "Wisconsin: Center of the Women's Hockey Universe" shirt in Las Vegas to remind the other 3 schools there that they are inferior for not having women's NCAA programs.
In 2006, Wisconsin hockey pulled off the double natty.
We're very much alive for that again 20 years later.
If it helps enhance the happiness of the moment, Stephen Miller went to Duke.
I like how all the comments are just "no."
Fascinating article - not only because I went through 10 infertility treatments to achieve a live birth myself, but methodologically in relation to my dissertation. How do historians study things that people don't want to talk about?
As a huge Station Eleven fan, this is so exciting!
