@FreddyLA7 @valeyo The South, and really "rural and small-town America," can be the loveliest and most generous; visiting can be a true joy.

When you don't conform to the local "norm" in terms of looks or beliefs? That can be a very different experience.

Impt to acknowledge both can be true.

Just praying @FreddyLA7 & friends don't get the explosive diarrhea parasite before leaving the USA...🤞

If you ever doubt how magical this world is, one day you will decide to go to a World Cup watch party in Oakland that you found online to root for a country where you spent two years trying to coax English out of the mouths of Cape Verdean teenagers. 1/7

NEW: American curler Rich Ruohonen criticizes ICE at the Winter Olympics, says it has been a really “tough” time for people in Minnesota.

“We'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention what's going on in Minnesota…”

“I am a lawyer, as you know, and we have a constitution… and what's happening in Minnesota is wrong. There's no shades of gray. It's clear.”

Joel Quenneville said he's moved on. The hockey world seems to have moved on, too. His return to Chicago last night felt like the final page of the Blackhawks' darkest chapter.

But we shouldn't forget what they're moving on from. Not ever.

Chicago #Pope dropping truths is one thing I still enjoy about scrolling here.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe
