Mossy Character sends in: Notre Dame's resurrection: Its chief architect on rebuilding France's 'heart' in 5 years.

I guess after Notre Dame burned down, Macron declared that it would be re-built within five years. And good news, everybody! It burned down on April 15th, 2019!

But as the reopening fast approaches, Villeneuve confessed his lingering anxiety.

"I'm not calm -- not at all. I'm completely stressed out," he said. "This was not just about restoring a building. This was about restoring the heart of France."

Here's a different link with some photos of the shiny new interior.

I'm even a little surprised at the amount of schadenfreude surrounding the murder of the United CEO:

Only about 50 million customers of America's reigning medical monopoly might have a motive to exact revenge upon the UnitedHealthcare CEO.

Heh. And I'm seeing lots of it on social media, too.

Also:

Last November, the estates of two former UHC patients filed suit in Minnesota alleging that the insurer used an AI algorithm to deny and override claims to elderly patients that had been approved by their doctors.

The algorithm in question, known as nH Predict, allegedly had a 90 percent error rate -- and according to the families of the two deceased men who filed the suit, UHC knew it.

So yeah.

John Paul Bremmer of ¡Hola Papi! with My Heinous Gift Guide for Sworn Enemies:

Target Pride Blazer: Befuddle your heterosexual bête noire or outright offend your homosexual antagonist by gifting them this outdated rainbow blazer from Target's Pride Collection in 2022, a year or two before Target agreed that being gay isn't quite normal. This Rorschach test of a gift registers as a threat to a straight person, telling them, "dress up like the Rainbow Riddler, or you're a bigot," and an insult to a gay person, to whom it says, "this is what you all look like to me, Skittles." It's a lose-lose, perfect for the cursed Christmas vibes you're angling for.

The whole thing is a delight.
