Yesterday morning, the baby panda passed away at the national zoo. Not even a week old. It appears she may have had a problem with her liver.
In terms of earth-shattering, horrible news, this wasn't the worst. The Ambassador to Libya's murder was sad. Torrey Smith's brother's death was sad. This was just...sadness.
This world can be too much sometimes, and a baby animal's birth and the joy it brings lit up the screen in DC last week. It was a bipartisan moment of joy in a bitter presidential campaign. A moment we all can agree that we are happy about.
Sadness. RIP Baby Panda. We wish we could have met you.
