I saw something on YouTube recently where a guy found one of the national (USA) school lunch program's original recipes for pizza, and he shrank the recipe and made it at home. Secret ingredient? Marjoram in the tomato sauce. Pure nostalgia.

The Pope literally dying after scolding JD Vance on Easter would be such a condemnation for any real devout catholic. I hope Vance feels that for the rest of his disgusting vacuous life.

The junta will definitely want to funnel all aid to Naypidaw FIRST, then maybe let it trickle out to military bases and junta-friendly outposts. I'm concerned that if INGOs insist on their own distribution policies, the junta will lock the doors.

Thank you for the excellent report.
There are a couple of inaccuracies in the photo gallery. The collapsed bridge is the Ava Bridge leading into Mandalay, not Pyay or Mae Sot as labeled.

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
