In the Library

Charles Simic
1938 –2023

There’s a book called
“A Dictionary of Angels.”
No one has opened it in fifty years,
I know, because when I did,
The covers creaked, the pages
Crumbled. There I discovered

The angels were once as plentiful
As species of flies.
The sky at dusk
Used to be thick with them.
You had to wave both arms
Just to keep them away.

Now the sun is shining
Through the tall windows.
The library is a quiet place.
Angels and gods huddled
In dark unopened books.
The great secret lies
On some shelf Miss Jones
Passes every day on her rounds.

She’s very tall, so she keeps
Her head tipped as if listening.
The books are whispering.
I hear nothing, but she does.

"White lies matter."

It’s the ultimate gaslight: the same party that has overseen decades of D.C. insider trading is now pretending to be the "ethics" police. Rep. Haley Stevens’ new bill would ban stocks and board seats for families, a move that conveniently comes after countless scandals involving liberal lawmakers and their well connected spouses. They’ve ignored Republican backed reforms for months, choosing instead to push a bill so extreme it’s designed to fail leaving the door wide open for more backroom deals. why are they so afraid of the Insider Trading now?

The "Bad Guy" never even got the to same floor as trump and everyone else.
Did the other cops shoot the one guy who got shot?

Meet Denim: 3 months old, 31 pounds… and already shopping in the “future gentle giant” section.

What kind of dog is he? Your guess is as good as ours. We’re thinking maybe a mix between a Clydesdale and a terrier… with just a dash of “oops, he’s going to be HUGE.” What do you think?

This big-hearted boy is as friendly as they come and ready to grow up with a family who understands that “puppy phase” + “extra large edition” = commitment. Think training, patience, financial commitment for meals, consistency… and maybe upgrading your lap expectations.

The good news? Denim is already off to a great start. His potty training is going well, and he’s eager to learn and please. With the right guidance, he’s going to be one incredible companion.

Denim is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and ready to start his next chapter.

If you’re ready to go big (like… really big), come meet him.

Williamson County Animal Center is open Tuesday–Friday from 10am–6pm and Saturday from 11am–3pm.

Republicans always lie.
We saw thus happen.
How can their dupes be so easily misled?
Satan. He has taken over their hearts and minds

Five years after a mob of Trump supporters violently stormed the Capitol to stop certification of Joe Biden’s victory, the Trump administration is still fixated on a false narrative.
