The US Federal Communications Commission released thirteen pages of public complaints on comedian Michelle Wolfe’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner performance.
Ironically, the majority of the objections focus on obscenities and profanities that the dotard Trump himself forced uncomfortably into the public sphere and lowered standards all around by his own words and actions.

We enjoyed exploring the distinguishing architectural conceit that become variations on a theme by browsing the photography of Andrรฉ Vicente Gonรงalves’ Windows of the World collection. Much of his portfolio centres on the vibrant styles to be found in his native Portugal, like the pictured collage from Praia da Vitรณia on the Azores, but Gonรงalves’ beat covers much of Europe and a few localities in Asia with equally distinctive designs.
