Musing about what single thing he would rescue in the event of a fire, the master Invariably settled on his desk. Constructed from remnants of the original Ark of the Covenant, it possessed special powers, and secret drawers where he kept his mood elevators. #TolstoysTalesofTrump

A hospitality house isn’t a place to send the down & out, @RobertEllsberg says so well, but a sign pointing us toward the fellowship we all can practice everywhere.
