The folks at #NewspapersDotCom have sent out a not-so-subtle message on social media.

Dictators hate to be ignored-- especially on their special days.

Remember to avoid posting about his parade on social media. Try not to interact with people who post about it. Keep the focus (and the algorithm) on things that will take the air out of his balloon, like #NoKingsDay #protests -- and pictures of #dogs .

I saw this while researching #genealogy in old newspapers:

"He decided to exit the highway where there wasn't an exit..." 😂

"He Taught His Baby Vile Oaths"

This stacked headline from the #AlbanyNY newspaper sometime in the 1930s caught my eye. Reading the story, no question the vile oaths were the least of it.

Not all of you can be a #GirlBoss. Some of you have to be a Girl Elevator Operator.

I grew up in the '60s and '70s; the idea of advertising jobs by sex is, unfortunately, not foreign to me. But I've been mystified by this one in a couple of directions. First, impressed they thought a female was qualified to operate an elevator. Second, confused why they would specifically be looking for one (this was not a single-sex hotel).
