Last year, I interviewed a variety of people close to Jimmy Carter and walked away with a profound respect for his impact on not just America, but the world. Truly one of the greatest men to ever hold the office.

With the death today of Jimmy Carter at age 100, we examine the former president's legacy as a humanitarian, peace advocate, and champion of public health and affordable housing. His work with @Habitat_org and @CarterCenter earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. Read more: https://t.co/smH7QxbJMF

@MikeIsaac @lukas___ha One Sunday when I was a kid in Bethesda, Md., Arnold Schwarzenegger filled up a quart of soup from the Sutton Place Gourmet hot bar and walked the store around drinking it, then left without paying for it. No one stopped him.

This was a fun exercise (but honestly, I would have been embarrassed if I scored less than 20/20). What is #YourMIST? 🧐 https://t.co/LLz97L968V #misinformation #fakenews

@JaneyMacaronii @Utterly_Jean Exactly. Pregnancy is only the beginning — basically the boot camp of maternal sacrifice.

Waking up in an #aurora haze this morning

Ask yourself...what two times you were most happy this year?

I'll bet two of them were the total solar eclipse and the aurora, because nature is amazing and so are shared experiences

@Bookieherring @Out5p0ken It’s like a parental guidance label for what not to believe

@growingwisdom It was the perfect morning for a cup of maple coffee on the porch in my favorite hoodie

@LucianoWombato @hammossa00 @westerosies That was definitely Caraxes if you look at the horns and the red tone to its scales. But yes, also a metaphor.

[M.J. Prest @mj_prest]

@1frBlvxk It was confusing. I watched it several times and it was out of chronological order. Daemon saw Caraxes’ death and then his own drowning, but only after Brynden Rivers made his appearance

@AncientLantern @Dinaemyra Senile old Vhagar is like “time to slay some grand babies”

You know why fall is the best season? Because it lacks a type of day people complain about.

Rainy? Great I want to watch football and use a crock pot

Unusually warm? Nice one more beach day before it gets cold

Chilly? Sweet first fire in the fireplace

Crisp and sunny? 💯
