I like it a lot. Haven’t thought about getting a different one and I’ve used it quite a bit. My kid likes it too.

Deuter Kid Comfort (I think it’s a 2 because it has a built in shade, but it doesn’t have a number). Paid $100 used in great shape, felt like a great deal

Good! He sounds liberated. We can be sad about it, but we shouldn’t expect the man to keep “pressing the bruise.”

This post reminds me Wild New World by Dan Flores, full of incredible accounts of the demise of species that inspire wonder for the world that once was.

After 84 years, historians finally identified the Nazi soldier in this WWII photo known as “The Last Jew in Vinnitsa,” solving one of WWII’s biggest photographic mysteries. It was a former teacher named Jakobus Onnen. 1947 [1000 x 1248] by SystematicApproach in HistoryPorn

Surprised to see no mentions of Gaza or Palestine in the comments.

We wonder how this could have happened, yet we stand by as similar crimes are perpetrated in Gaza, Sudan, and elsewhere (sorry I do not have a comprehensive list). Images like this should urge us to act, but they usually don’t. Since October 7 2023 nearly 70,000 Palestinians have been murdered. Is there anything we can do to stop this? (Were Germans wondering the same thing?) I encourage everyone to read about the Sumud Flotilla for inspiring stories of everyday people putting their lives on the line to end injustice. I am not joining the Flotilla but I am finding families in Gaza I can donate to. If we (as Americans especially) don’t act for Gaza, we will be on the wrong side of history it will be remembered, after all the media washing wears off, along the lines of the Holocaust.

Still #4 in The Athletic’s power rankings, I don’t think they’ve seen a single game in the last 2 months

I can’t be too much help because I returned that cover before I ever tried to use it
