I work at a bridal consignment shop where we sell secondhand wedding dresses.
Last week, a young woman came in completely alone.
No friends. No mom. No champagne.
She found a dress she absolutely loved.
It was $400.
She quietly placed $200 on the counter and asked if she could put it on layaway because she was trying to save little by little after her fiancé recently lost his job.
I looked at the tag and remembered the original owner had been trying to sell that dress for months.
At one point she even told me:
“I honestly just want it out of my closet.”
So I pretended to check the computer and then said:

Let every province, state,territory and first nation of our great land come together and celebrate our grey skies, snowcapped mountains, abundant valleys rivers, and seas...and share microwaved snacks at the table of the cafe car.
RETWEET if you want Joe Biden to declassify every single page the U.S. intelligence community has compiled on Donald Trump over the last 10 years, as well as every single page the Department of Justice has compiled on him over the last 10 years, as well as every page the FBI has.
I have decided to nominate Commodore Oh as head of the Department of Federation Intelligence. Our secrets will be safe with her! CONGRATULATIONS COMMODORE OH!!
BREAKING: A judge ordered Cobb County, Georgia to send over 3,000 ballots to voters via express mail, and accept those ballots if they are received by 5pm on November 8th.
This is a major victory for voting rights.
At Madison Square Garden, Trump spoke of “a little secret” he and Speaker Mike Johnson have that will impact the election. It could be that Johnson plans to block certification of the election.
But if Dems win just 4 seats, Johnson won't be speaker.
