Dear Annie

Dear Annie: I am depressed and deeply heartbroken over the final breakup with a man whom I have loved for eight years. I went to endless therapy and even went to a wellness center in Germany to help me get over him. Nothing has worked. Here’s the backstory. “Steve” has hurt me deeply many times, and after a few weeks or months of my begging him to come back, he always did. He’s broken up with me many times, ruined my birthdays and holidays, and he’s excluded me from family functions when his ex-wife and adult kids would attend. I met “Steve” while he was separated ...

Daily Horoscope

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Here come the tough customers. Cover the basics before you try to fulfill their extra requests. Resist the urge to impress and don’t get too ambitious. Keep your offerings simple so you can serve them with immediacy. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Most of the world’s boundaries are drawn on maps yet unseen on ground. It is not uncommon for the people who live on and walk over them each day to be unsure of where they actually lie. It’s also true metaphorically. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re not sure how much of yourself to share with someone, but if you ...

No law protects from media bias

There are no laws to shield people from misinformation. So, as the nation chugs toward the final stretch of the presidential campaign season, Americans need to take a good look at where they gathered the information that forms their political opinions. If your news flows primarily from social media sources such as Facebook, Twitter or YouTube, you are not alone. A Pew Research survey shows that 78% of citizens under 50 get their news from these sites, mostly from Facebook, which as more than 2.7 billion active users. But given the way Facebook aggregates information, it is likely ...

Dear Annie

Dear Annie: I was troubled by one particular sentence in the letter from “Missing Love,” who wanted another relationship after his wife died. He said, “My problem is that I still love her.” My husband died four years ago, and I can assure Missing Love that he will continue to love his wife, and that is a FACT, not a “problem.” What lame sort of love would it be if it just came to a screeching halt with her death? In time, he might even come to see that love as a blessing, not something in need of a solution. He may or may not find love again, but if he does, the new, ...

Daily Horoscope

ARIES (March 21-April 19). People try to show one another the best parts of themselves. Just remember that others, no matter how polished they may seem, have ridiculous, embarrassing and insecure sides that they hide, just like you do. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). At the heart of innovation is a desire to understand what others need and align with what they want. For problem-solvers, seeing a problem in action is an opportunity and a gift. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There you go striving to exceed expectations that others may have of you. Stop and consider what’s being asked. Also, ...

Their seductive agenda

Halloween, like so much else, will be different this year from previous years, but it also offers an analogy that can be applied to the current presidential campaign. The purpose of Halloween masks is to hide the identity of the person wearing them. They are also supposed to be scary. Inversely, as I see it, the purpose of the “masks” being worn by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris is to soothe those who see and listen to them and hide the scary faces beneath. Politico reported last week that “progressives” (that is, the far left) have put together an agenda they hope to use to ...
