"U.S. consumers cut spending by the most on record for the second straight month in April while boosting savings to an all-time high." What if saving instead of spending becomes a HABIT, like it was for the Great Depression generation? reuters.com/article/us-usa-e…

Censorship is fun. Next let’s burn books! Seriously, I wonder at the desire to surpress new works of art. That’s what any translation is, after all, whether of Shakespeare or Chekhov. The original remains untouched and undamaged. Why can’t we have both old and new?

#DeepSpringsCollege goes co-ed this week! After 101 years. This will probably not get a single RT, because no one at DS is on Twitter (well, maybe @DaveHitz) but still. It's an enormous step for an astounding institution, and I'm really excited to see what happens next!
