Thank you for continuing to report even when it is overwhelmingly awful. We need a P.O. Box for birthday sour candy deliveries

I have to say Aaron, the daily news is getting to me too. It’s a heavy weight to carry around all the time. I couldn’t image having it to be all consuming and literally my life and job. I’m a nurse and can handle a lot of emotional turmoil but this is too much.

I feel the same. Today was a tough day.

Happy Birthday Aaron. We are in this together 🙌🏼

I hear you Marnie! I retired as a nurse recently. Currently push wheelchairs for passengers at my local airport. It gets me out of the house, pays better than minimum, plus, I get to “take care” of people but, no one is my responsibility!

That’s wonderful. I have about 7 years to go, god willing! Lol We just gotten through a 7 week strike. All I’ve done is consume news! 🥴 I need a break but I’m afraid I’ll miss something! Like a stroke? Maybe a heart attack? 😂

That is exactly what I am waiting for @Sue!! A nice big bite, not chewed well enough, a bit distracted and death by BigMac!

OMG, we often take the AA flight from DCA to CHS. Will be doing so next week. Two crashes at DCA since Orange blob is unacceptable- unless he’s on it. Time to change airports !

The best news here is Trump having to face a defamation lawsuit. Those 5 men do not deserve what they've already had to endure.

This made me happy. The things he said about those poor boys were awful. And to not back down on those opinions in 2024 when we know damn well they were innocent, is barbaric.

The tariffs for China is an absolute joke. What a ridiculous timeline we’re living in. And heard about them lying to go into the elementary school. Judges need to appoint security for these schools!

Aaron, reading your work I feel like a knife goes into my heart with every new issue you report on. Yet you are the first person I read in the morning and the last I read at night. Thank you for your amazing, succinct, well-written and informative journalism. It’s certainly not your fault all the news seems to be awful lately. But you make it easier to digest. Keep up the fantastic work.
