This is absolutely insane. Is there no charge of vehicular manslaughter in Australia? The punishment is not proportionate to the crime. Driver fined $2,000 and disqualified for killing Melbourne student Jack Davey - ABC News

Sad to hear of Alice Munro's passing today. I still remember Moons of Jupiter, which was the first story of hers that I read. Such a powerfully evocative writer, who proved that short stories are an equal form of literature.

Taylorâs reverie is interrupted by a phone call. Itâs Roger Goodell, commissioner of the NFL and, as of five months ago, Taylorâs indentured servant. She answers on the last ring. âYou donât call me,â she says. âI call you.â https://t.co/7U5ymotI4F

Gaza becomes âa graveyard for childrenâ as Israel intensifies airstrikes In just three weeks of war, the number of children killed in Gaza surpassed the total number killed across all the worldâs conflict zones in any year since 2019.

A child is killed every 10 minutes in Gaza, Save the Children says. Families are mourning not just their own losses, but what feels like the loss of an entire generation.

One reason (among many) that VC firms of different shapes & sizes have refocused on seed/early A in this tough capital market -- the multiples on narratives & promises is infinite while the multiples on evidence & traction is painfully finite.
