Elon Musk is starting to risk getting Jess Phillips killed. She's been safeguarding minister for six months. She oversaw nothing relating to the rape gangs. As an opposition MP she was one of the most prominent campaigners for the victims. What he's doing is a travesty.

President Jimmy Carter has passed away at the age of 100. He was a symbol of what is best about America: kindness, compassion, duty and service. He will be missed, most of all by those who long for a return of that kind of country, led by a man with such strength of character.

A little piece of knowledge that touched me years ago when I first heard about it: In Japan, people who arrive early to work park further away from the entrance so that those who arrive later can arrive on time. Our world needs more of this lived compassion. Much, much more.
