Because You’ve (Still) Lasted This Long
We’re fans of Eliot Nelson’s daily rundown of the political news, “Huffpost Hill.” His column finishes with a “Because You’ve Read This Far” feature, usually a link to adorable animal videos, presumably because the political news is usually so dismal that the only reward is total emotional distraction. (That’s where we found last week’s romp into a kiddie pool full of ice by Nora the polar bear.) So, we’re going to follow suit until November 9. Here’s a newborn elephant chasing away a bunch of swallows. —Eric Gould
