Nah he is legally blind. He can see barely and has a machine in his home from the VA that helps him read. He just has us to help him when he really needs it.

For some reason, the line “We enjoy your play, Mr. Papagiorgio,” has become an inside joke in my family.

This is awful. But if anyone can come back from this, it’s this guy.

Added sugar is part of the problem, but also concentrated sugar like fruit juice. Fruit has sugar, but if you eat the whole fruit you're unlikely to over do it. But if you drink apple juice, you're probably eating 3-4 apples worth of sugar.

Casey, this entire post is beautiful, refreshing, and rare. And it spoke to me like a dear and trusted friend. Your story is unique to your experiences by the very definition of the word but so broadly meaningful in its universal implications. I too grew up with, and still suffer from severe depression, anxiety and

Yeah. I think trade schools really should be just as supported and well acknowledged. This could extend to internships/apprentices. I think the notion that you need to expand past your field of knowledge is incredibly important, the way universities go about it, i.e. take 1 humanities class, isn’t right. What if you

Frequent kayaker here; I live within a dozen miles of Bannerman’s and paddle often on the Hudson. Yes, if you want to kill someone on the river, especially on a chilly, windy day, you have a very good chance of success if you pull the plug on his boat.
