Destiny Pinto was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at the start of college, after which she heavily relied on compression gear to relieve the pain she felt throughout her body.

Meet Tiffany and Kalyn from Canada. If there’s an event or party in Paris, they’re going.
For the Paris games, Tiff and Kalyn, both 35, have a color-coded Excel spreadsheet of their 12-day Olympics schedule. They have tickets to 13 sports events, maybe a dozen party houses to hit, a thousand commemorative pins to collect, and the aim of having the best time ever, over and over again.
“People who have the most incredible time at the Olympics have a plan but can still be flexible,” Tiff says. “You have to be a ‘yes’ person, and go where the wind takes you.”

Meet Allison Reese, a TikTok creator in Los Angeles, who began crafting her impersonation of Harris in 2019. One aspect that Reese has mastered: Harris’s laugh, one of the candidate’s most defining and most dissected personal traits, for better or for worse.
“[The laugh has] become its own thing, its own character.” Reese believes that expressing joy in spite of the heaviness in our culture is important. “It doesn’t negate those horrible things,” she said. “You can be fighting for something bigger than you, and you can also express joy in your life.”

It stands out on Taylor Swift’s European tour schedule.
Sandwiched between concert stops in Milan, and Hamburg, it is the one city most people have never heard of.
This city is so pleased with its momentary good fortune that it has hung yellow signs declaring itself “Swiftkirchen” — literally, the churches of Swift, as hundreds of thousands of Swifties prepare for the show.
