In Portland, Oregon, there’s a small coffee shop called Cozy Bean. During the day, it’s what you’d expect—people stopping in for a hot drink, soft background music, the usual warmth of a neighborhood café. But something unexpected happens after closing time. Once the customers leave and the lights are turned off, the owner turns them back on—but not for more business. He opens the doors again, this time for a different kind of guest: street dogs. Since 2018, Cozy Bean has quietly offered shelter to stray dogs in the area. There's no advertising, no big signs, no posts asking for attention. It’s just something the owner does—every single night. Inside, he sets out old blankets, cushions, and bowls of clean water. The dogs come in from the cold, some limping, some soaked from the rain, and they find a place to rest. They aren’t locked in or forced to stay. They just know they’re welcome—and they settle in like they belong there. Some of the dogs are regulars. Others come and go. But every night, they have somewhere safe to sleep. A break from the noise and danger of the street. The owner doesn’t do interviews. He doesn’t expect anything in return. He just makes space for those that have none. It’s a simple act—opening a door, turning on a light, offering a little comfort. But it shows a level of compassion that’s hard to find in today’s world. This isn’t about saving the world. It’s about doing what you can, right where you are. And that, in its quiet way, is something extraordinary.

Ladder 3 was one of the first firefighter units to show up at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Sadly, its crew perished in the collapse of the North Tower. Their truck is now displayed in the NYC Memorial.

Long before she became a feminist icon, Gloria Steinem—who passed away this week at the age of 92—was a contributing editor at Glamour, writing about the intersection of dating, style, politics, and culture. Earlier this year, she welcomed Glamour into her home for an original interview and photo shoot, reflecting on the lessons she’d learned along the way. Read what she had to say on marriage, work, style, and activism—and why you should only take her advice if it fits perfectly into your life. glamourmag.visitlink.me/d7nvC2

Gloria Steinem, a co-founder of Ms. Magazine and a trailblazing figure of the women's liberation movement, has died. She was 92 years old. In 2023, Rita Braver spoke with Steinem about the origin of the magazine, which aimed to push feminism into the mainstream: "We didn't want to just focus on women's outsides, but also, our insides." cbsn.ws/4h5Tqpo

Dolly once wrote me a letter asking if I’d listen to a song she’d written and consider singing it with her. The truth is, I didn’t even listen before I said yes. When Dolly Parton asks, you say yes. When God made Dolly, He broke the mold. This one really hurts. 💔

Listen to these people, out on the street, singing a song about hope and still having time, in echo of the man who gave them it and whose loss yesterday would give anyone cause to question either. If anyone knows the power of song abd music in shock and grief it’s Dubliners.
