Are we really, *really* sure Republicans are best with the economy? And before y'all come after me that the Pillsbury brand costs $6, read the ingredient labels side-by-side to see if you can solve the mystery of which one is actual food versus whatever TF that Doughboy is serving.

Over the weekend, I spent a fair amount of time explaining to my brother-in-law why Jill Stein is a deeply unserious person. She is nothing more than a contrarian political cicada, waking only in election season in the hopes of destroying everyone else around her. And now:
Dana Houle posting a screengrab of Jill Stein's tweet, which reads: "If you had high hopes for Democratic Party reform, you may want to reset your expectations. PS. Stop drinking the cool aid." Dana points out the use and spelling of "cool aid." Cicada Stein likely meant Kool-aid.

Reading the praise of Mahomes recovering from torn knee ligaments, but feel like this quote perhaps adds important context. To compare, Mahomes got the MRI within an hour, surgery the very next day. Our healthcare is capable of being great. We just...don't.
"For [most people], it's 10 days for an MRI, it's another doctor's visit and then another week to schedule surgery and so on," said Borgmann, describing general practices involving a torn ACL. "But we're not professional football players. I stand on this: NFL players of today have the best medical care in the world due to our healthcare system and our availability of imaging.

"We have more doctors associated with NFL teams than any other professional sport in the United States. It is the best medical care you can find in the world."

Absolutely losing my mind at Washington State University's new logo that looks like a FABULOUS snapping turtle with perfect lashes. I'm told it's a cat of some kind, but I truly can't see it.
Washington State University's logo, where the letters formulate the body of a creature. It looks like a snapping turtle or snail. It is supposed to be a cat type of animal.

Email from Loftie, reading:
Good afternoon, and happy Sunday.
 
Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Jr. Day—a day to honor one of America’s most inspiring leaders, who confronted one of our country’s deepest injustices with a message grounded in peace, dignity, and love.
 
Like many of you, I’ve been deeply unsettled by what’s unfolding in Minnesota this week. Fear, uncertainty, and trauma take a real toll on people’s lives, families, and sense of safety.
 
I can’t change what’s happening. But I can encourage care.
 
Today and tomorrow, for every Sleep Sweatshirt purchased, I will personally donate the full amount paid to two Minneapolis–St. Paul nonprofits providing legal services and mental-health care to Minnesotans.

The thing is, this is pretty dang close to old school Lara Croft. Certainly more Lara Croft-y than in the most recent games, as voiced brilliantly by Camilla Luddington (tbh, my favorite Lara, but I digress). It's the b00bz, right? You want giant 3-pixel stabby b00biez? I hate it here.

From the AP. This was the point. Trump WANTED this to happen.
The Trump administration quickly ordered 500 more National Guard members to Washington following the shooting. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said President Donald Trump asked him to send the extra troops.

Fun scoop: Oregon Republican State Legislators are preparing to stage a walkout. Why? Because their items are being crossed out due to Trump threats to remove funding. Republican-backed bills in OR use words like "underrepresented" in them to boost the indeed underrepresented voices from conservative rural areas. This is what happens when an illiterate idiot goes on a vendetta against words.
