I appreciate that @Delta makes it so easy to travel to with a dog as opposed to @JetBlue who runs an entire interrogation program around it.

“DOGWARTS!”

[Peter Howell 🖊 @peterhowellfilm]

FOLKTALES: Tempting to call this Norway school Dogwarts for its canine pals and magical effect it has on young people liberating themselves from modern woes. Rachel Grady & Heidi Ewing find beauty in Arctic milieu and illumination in the lives of 3 teens. A #Sundance2025 charmer.

"FOLKTALES" (at @sundancefest) is a documentary about a Norwegian folk school that revolves around dog sledding - and is, to date, the fest's most heartwarming film.

Incredible story

[The New York Times @nytimes]

The military conscription of a beluga whale might sound like spy fiction. But it's a well-documented practice.

This is the story of Hvaldimir, who escaped captivity and became a global celebrity. Now, no one can agree on what to do with him. https://t.co/yU6r2bAbjl
