"The redemptive power of love!” — Bishop Michael Curry delivers the #RoyalWedding sermon. @PB_Curry #RoyalWedding2018

@BenMank77 💯

The Paper remains one of the great journalism movies ever made. Criminally under-appreciated. And Duvall is magnificent. Scene where he spies on his daughter (Jill Hennessy), sees she still subscribes to his paper - so he gives a little Duvall fist pump & skip - the best.

We are saddened by the passing of Jim Lovell, commander of Apollo 13 and a four-time spaceflight veteran. Lovell's life and work inspired millions. His courage under pressure helped forge our path to the Moon and beyond—a journey that continues today. go.nasa.gov/41tbrpq

As Steve Benson said to me 6 years ago after his layoff: Political cartoonists are canaries in the coal mine:

John Feinstein, a Washington Post sportswriter who became the best-selling author of more than 40 books, died March 13 at his brother’s home in McLean, Virginia. He was 68. wapo.st/4huvjh7

Everyone’s Got An Opinion – D.D. Degg shares his about Michael Cavna, @scripta_bene, @washingtonpost not running a year end "Best of" feature, and Michael Leunig's sister is verbally spitting on his grave. dailycartoonist.com/index.php/2025…

Literally crying in the Target parking lot right now. 🧵 I was struggling with unloading my toddler, my bags and wrangling an unruly cart (seriously — why do some lack power-steering?) A fire truck from Redondo Beach (E61) had just parked nearby and four firefighters got out.

Already an epic disaster. Fire now in Mandeville Canyon and threatening to move east toward the 405, up to Mulholland and down into Encino. UCLA campus okay but is on the far outside edge. Praying for the firefighters and everyone in the area. Godspeed, L.A.
