Wow. Just reading this news about the Brown/MIT professor shooter.

They are now investigating whether there is a connection between the Brown shooting and the shooting of the MIT professor in Brookline MA. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/18/brown-university-shooting-suspect-mit-professor-link

Along with there being no suspect or motive in the Brown shootings, there is also no suspect or motive in the shooting death of prominent professor from MIT at his apartment in Brookline MA. :( https://www.cbsnews.com/news/mit-professor-killed-nuno-loureiro-mystery-homicide-investigation/

Thank you!! 😍 😍 😍 😍

Now that I've seen it I want to answer this, oh my god YES!

I like the concept, but yeah, Madison's outfit needs some adjustments.

Berlin suited her perfectly. She was able to arrive with no German and still get employment and ultimately learn the language. Of course not everyone can handle something like that. She's very social and outgoing. She likes Berlin because it is so open and for lack of a better term bohemian. She...

My friend who moved to Berlin in 2006 from the USA loves it there. But she's concerned about the rise of Neo-Nazis and adjacent hatemongers. I don't think there is any good place to go, but then I wouldn't leave the US anyway.

I don't like tea out, I brew it myself so I always have had my morning hot drink before I go out. The habit of buying coffee on the way to work or wherever has puzzled me but now its so expensive. One day I had to be out and I got a small iced chai at a coffee place and it was over $5. I'm...

coffee yogurt! I like coffee ice cream too. But I don't much like to drink coffee. I love black tea, Assam or something strong. With milk. Well, soy milk actually. some seltzer but mostly just plain water
