“Today, we are able to breathe again.” — Philonise Floyd
Apologies for the long break, I was launching a small business.
You’ve already heard that Derek Chauvin was convicted of murdering George Floyd last summer, which shows that there’s some sanity in the justice system, sometimes.

Justice by the ton: Elephants trampled a suspected rhino poacher to death in South Africa.
Speaking of elephants, Cher is hanging out with one in a new documentary.
A federal judge is ordering the city of Los Angeles to provide housing for everyone living on the infamous skid row by fall.
I’ve pledged not to do politics on this letter, but the climate crisis isn’t political, it’s existential. So here’s some more good news: President Joe Biden is launching an aggressive policy blitz to deal with climate change.
And it’s almost summer! So you’ve got that going for you, which is nice.
