Dear world, how about a giant search-and-replace of DEI -> IDE. Same concept, different order. That way those afraid of "inclusion, diversity, and equity" will have little recourse without also erasing tides, brides, double wides, snarky asides, hunting guides, slip-n-slides, & political divides.

Providence, RI representing. It was a nasty, cold, rainy day here and I could never see (or hear) the far end of the crowd.

I wish I could do more, but for now I will tell the Ukrainians, Poles, Europeans, and friends all over the world defending democracies that I thank you, I love you, and I am doing everything I can to support you. pamohara.substack.com/p/a-love-let...
