In a savvy move, Trump undoes sanctions on Russia after Russia helps Iran target Americans.

He spent his life building a $1 million stereo. The real cost was unfathomable. Ken Fritz spent 40 years turning his living room into what some audiophiles called the world’s greatest hi-fi system. What would it all mean in the end?

If there's a longform article where a relative recounts the loss of their parent/spouse to a bizarre personal megaproject, I will be first in line www.washingtonpost.com/style/intera...

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for
