Photo: Horrible woman selling puppies on a street in Seoul. Yelled at everyone who dared look at the puppies. Knocked the phone out of my hand (no damage).
We’re always interested in the sufferings of the rich, basically because they seem rare. The Economist has a special report on how they may be in for an “extended period of austerity”. Depends on how you define austerity. Flying first class instead of chartering the whole jet?

I saw a woman selling bunnies on a sidewalk along Agora Market, in San Juan. I hope she wasn’t selling them as food.
