Watched the recorded correspondents' dinner last night, and Joe was funnier than Roy Wood Jr, kudos to his speechwriters ;-)
And, heartwarming that B Hayes with 25 friends will get their own prom due to the overwhelming support from their community after they were not allowed into the school prom because of wanting to wear a suit instead of dress... seems like a ridiculous rule that all females must wear a dress, when really, I've seen some beautiful pantsuits worn for formal adult occasions.
edit/add: and THIS was brilliant - "The World Wide Web was the brainchild of Tim Berners-Lee, a 37-year-old researcher at a physics lab in Switzerland called CERN. The institution is known today for its massive particle accelerators."
It's really amazing that many of us are old enough to remember a time before WWW existed...
A rare comment on my part to thank you for all the good news you post on Sundays. Sometimes, I catch my breath-it’s such good news. Some of it that I didn’t know. Really appreciate your activism every day - but especially the Sunday wrap-up. A long list of positives is very very supportive and encouraging, as we face another Monday, another week.
Wow! B Hayes prom!! CFA letter to US Attorney re: TN Speaker Sexton!!! Disney V DeSantis!!!! American ( S. Korean ) Pie!!!!! The week was SO great, I ran out of exclaimation points. Love you, Jessica; you're the BEST
Everything you included made me smile. Thanks, Jessica! Also apparently governor of WA signed bill banning sale of assault style weapons, and Colorado and Maryland also strengthened gun safety.
Plenty of negative out there, and people want to bash the Biden attempts to right the ship and get it moving in an ALL for the U.S. direction.
I just want to say, it has taken 4 decades for us to get in this mess. Too many fell asleep at the wheel frankly and the rest of us zzzzz on board (Me included)
So a Win is a Win! Even small ones, Biden isn’t perfect, stop comparing him to your ideal. CELEBRATE the Wins! Be more positive then the opposite. Find a way in where you fit in. And get Louder and Confident that you are on the correct side of any argument if you have Love for ALL people in your heart!
And Simon Rosenberg has the data for you stat geeks over at Hopium Chronicles. Dive in Peace, Act fellow CWCW family. Thanks for what you do Jessica!
“My friend, Jimmy Madison.” Biden is quite funny about his age. Good one, Joe.
Agree. Or he hired really good people to write his material.
Sure he did! Thanks for posting the link, Jess!

Amazing, right?
Love these Sunday updates with the good news. Otherwise would be lost in the doom and gloom. Thank You!!
You're very welcome, Monica. I consider it the most important edition of the week!

Medicinal, isn't it?
It certainly is! Keep that coming!

Lots of good news, Jess. Thanks.
Very welcome, Mim!
The npr article on the teen who was kicked out of prom was amazing. Thanks for sharing
Of course! As the mom to a nonbinary kid it touched me especially hard--glad it spoke to you as well.
Kolfage is a nasty piece of work but I still feel bad for him having to go to prison as a triple amputee. I hope he's treated decently.
Oh good God is he? That is awful.
Thank you. ❤️
It’s my pleasure.
What a wonderful way to greet the day! Thank you, Jessica, for reminding us that we’re making progress, one step at a time.
Always!
Jessica, I really appreciate you sharing all the good 💗 I especially liked the video of American Pie-very heartwarming 🌸
Wasn't that terrific? I'm telling you, Joe Biden brings out something really special in people.
He really does!
Thank you, Jessica! This is such a boost. Great way to launch a new week. I will share :)
Please do! We ALL need a lift!
Thanks. Really needed that today.
