There are a handful of blogs and newsletters that I will read whenever friends or colleagues point me to them, but yours is the only one I subscribe to.

Thank you for today's virtual and vivid escape to a part of the world I grew up in and continue to love but have been unable to visit for too long. And thank you for all the previous posts that I haven't thanked you for until now but have enjoyed immensely. And thank you also for publishing the link to the short documentary about Mohamedou Ould Salahi and Steve Wood. I have been following the story of their remarkable friendship in The New Yorker and other media, including The Guardian, or as my Irish husband calls it, The Breakfast of Champions of Justice.

Keep up the good work.

I love this. I don't want anything but the real world. More and more I don't listen to stuff, I don't watch stuff, I don't want any of it. It's all too much and every little bit of it is just contributing to burning up the world I love. Some days it is almost more than I can live with.
