Happy "Bacon Cheeseburger on a Friday During Lent" to all who celebrate! 🙃
Photo of an office desk showing a McDonald's "Shamrock Oreo McFlurry" and Bacon Double Cheeseburger 🥓🍔

I figure this pretty much checks all the boxes:
– Meat and Dairy
– Pork's neither Kosher nor Halal
– Hindu's aren't too keen on the Beef
– and Catholics wish it were Fish, today

Lirty Dies:
Tronald Dump
MY stext nory is about that dealer wheeler, TRONALD DUMP. And his spuvely louse, Trissus Mump.
When the Dumps were worst fed, they were mappily harried. But they signed a denuptial preal. Then Dump went on the trast fack, got rilthy fich, and met a porgia jeech. It was his ducky lay!
Trissus Mump felt schnotally tookered, and Dump was in trig bubble. But Trissus Mump isn't honey mungry. All she wants is the Plump Traza, the Bump Trilding, the Shump Truttle, And the three Trittle Lumps. Chat fance, Trissus Mump! Getting trough out of Dump is like taking stud from a blone. He doesn't have a pickle in his nocket!

Even though I'm usually pretty loose with my humor, sometimes I've been known to come up with a comment even I consider offensive and in bad taste. Thus I'm not gonna post it; sorry, not sorry. Look I get it, you're curious if it's REALLY that bad but sometimes you just have to take my word for it!

Sean Penn as Jeff Spicoli from "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" saying, "People on Ludes Should Not Drive"

(I've never been sure whether he was accusing OTHER drivers of being high, or was simply self-aware of his own inebriation, and didn't care...)

ELI5: Imagine these springs are DNA. I could attach dozens of longer springs (helices) to build all kinds of 3D shapes... inSēquio lets you design those complex 3D DNA nanostructures "in silico", and can simulate how the molecules will behave *BEFORE* you spend a lot of time and money in the lab.
