Try a round dining table. There are no bad seats at a circular table, especially when you’re entertaining a crowd.

I recently started reading From Superman to Man by Joel Augustus Roger’s (130 pages, 1968),but decided not to finish it. The book is structured around a conversation between a highly educated, well-traveled African American Pullman porter and a racist Southern senator.
The porter is incredibly patient and polite, using his extensive notes and literary knowledge to debunk the senator’s prejudices. While the discourse on race is historically fascinating, informative, and necessary, it lacks a strong narrative drive. As an African American woman, I found the senator’s ignorance and the porter’s endless patience with him exhausting to read.
I have a 50-page cutoff for books, and I reached that point and decided to put it down. While it is a powerful and educational read that effectively dismantles various stereotypes, the content made it difficult to get through as a story. I would still recommend it to anyone looking to become more racially informed, but it functions more as a rhetorical debate than a novel.
I love the Op-Ed section of the paper. I believe we all need to write at least one letter on something we’re passionate about in our lifetime. In saying that, I applaud this reader
Re: “Trump loves that ‘Colbert got fired,’ hopes Kimmel is next” (July 18, Nation & World):
Watching Stephen Colbert lose his platform, while President Donald Trump celebrates and calls for other critics to be fired, is a chilling moment for American democracy. This is not just about TV shows — it’s about silencing dissent.
When satire becomes too risky, and companies cave to political pressure, we edge closer to authoritarianism. We must wake up, speak up and educate ourselves to vote for leaders who show honesty, sincerity and a real commitment to truth.
Washington state has always been a place for independent thinking. Let’s defend that. Let’s ensure that truth, compassion and fairness — not fear — guide our future.

maturity in love is realizing you don’t want fireworks. you want warmth. you want someone who texts back. who shows up. who listens when you ramble and hugs you when you don’t know what’s wrong. you want someone who feels like peace,not adrenaline. – Gor
