Is bellini a proper noun, or did NYT Spelling Bee leave it off their list for a dumb reason?

Katherine Doyle used to work for Washington Examiner, a conservative publication, so maybe that's why fact-checking doesn't matter to her? I'd like to think this was carelessness and not her deliberately laundering a vile conservative senator to make her extremist fascist views more palatable?

This article says that Alabama Senator Katie Britt's husband is a Super Bowl Champion. He is not. You would think NBC News' Katherine Doyle could do simple fact-checking.

This kind of stuff pisses me off because if you get details wrong how can I trust any of it?

Our backyard has been plagued with "mosquito-eaters," which look like mosquitoes, but aren't, and which don't actually eat mosquitos. So F Minus on the name, scientists.

According to the NYT Crossword, CPR training is required to graduate most high schools. Great idea, but is this true? I've never heard of this requirement before.

Periodically, I have to take exams to obtain professional certifications in my industry. Took the most recent one today, AND I FAILED BY ONE QUESTION. There's no consequence to failing, I can try, I think, 3 times a quarter, but SO ANNOYING!
