Where was the president in the eight hours after the Sept. 11 attacks? The strange, harrowing journey of Air Force One, as told by the people who were onboard. It's a LONG read but worth it.

"Nearly 13 years after my sister's death, a reluctant Sunday visit to the 9/11 Memorial Museum, where public spectacle and private grief have a permanent home together."

It only makes sense that a genre dealing in emotions as old as time would take cues from writing that’s practically just as dated.

In an election season harried by mail delays and COVID-19, getting updated information is key. Here's the ultimate guide to voting in the 2020 election.

I know I'm behind on this one but I have been hesitant to start it since I bought it a few months ago. I find myself pulling away from heavier subject matter because *gestures vaguely*. Based on the real story of a reform school that operated for 111 years and warped the lives of thousands of children, it's a Pulitzer Prize winner and on every best book list imaginable.

The title comes from a conversation the author had with a Marine Corps general. "Officers eat last," he said. Sinek watched as the most junior Marines ate first while the most senior Marines took their place at the back of the line. What's symbolic in the chow hall is deadly serious on the battlefield: Great leaders sacrifice their own comfort--even their own survival--for the good of those in their care. Dramatic? Slightly but I loved this book.

This one of my all-time favorite books. This modern love story is told entirely through dictionary entries which are brief and concise - but punch you right in the gut and tend to linger.

Fifty more things I found on the Internet - including some great fall jackets, dresses for events (RIP), and some great plus-size finds.

For anyone in the Dallas area, check this out! It's a delivery service that offers three kits, as well as several al la carte items like half gallons of frosé, meatballs, garlic bread, and more. The Standard Kit ($65) includes a half gallon of frosé or vino tinto or bottle of Chianti, an antipasto spread, and garlic bread. For the whole family, go for the Baked Ziti Kit ($105) or 200-Layer Lasagna Kit ($120). They're also the masterminds behind Ritas and Queso.

"I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to get my hands on some f*cking gourds and arrange them in a horn-shaped basket on my dining room table. That sh*t is going to look so seasonal. I’m about to head up to the attic right now to find that wicker f*cker, dust it off, and jam it with an insanely ornate assortment of shellacked vegetables. When my guests come over it’s gonna be like, BLAMMO! Check out my shellacked decorative vegetables, *ssholes. Guess what season it is — f*cking fall. There’s a nip in the air and my house is full of mutant f*cking squash." If you read one thing this issue, make sure it's this. Probably my favorite thing that has EVER hit the Internet and I look forward to it every fall.  

Ever wondered what an antidepressant would look like as a home? Yeah, me either but I think this is it.

It me. I'm Collin. Shockingly, I hate talking about myself but here are the CliffsNotes. 31, Texan turned cruise ship character turned Texan turned Chicagoan turned Texan. Event designer and planner. Interior designer and stylist. Corporate badass. Partner and double dog dad. Cursed with an aggressive gluten intolerance but also a passion for bread and no fucks to give. Why a newsletter? It gives me a creative outlet with a deadline and my therapist says these things are important. Plus, I love to read, shop, share, and most importantly spend time on the internet. I don't sleep.
