Scissors are like phone chargers for me, there is one of each approximately every 5 feet in my house and I still lose them

This monster caught a bird this week. Through the window. My indoor cat punched a hole through the window screen to grab a bird that was sitting on the window ledge. I did not find this delightful but she certainly did

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

What do you name an animal that can assume the shape & size of a volleyball? If you're the San Antonio Zoo, you name them WILSON. Wilson is a southern three-banded armadillo (Tolypeutes matacus), the only genus of 'dillo that can actually roll into a ball. (📷: San Antonio Zoo via FB&IG)

My biggest advice for youngsters: take pictures of the places that matter to you. Your home, your bedroom, your classrooms, the stores you frequent, etc. You'll probably have plenty of pictures of the people in your life, but the spaces change and disappear, and they're a wonder to revisit.

Offer them water. Ask if they need something with sugar but ALSO ask if they need something with salt. Electrolytes like LMNT or Liquid IV are very helpful. Don’t try to get them to stand. Ask if this has happened before. If it hasn’t, ER. If it has, stay with them until someone can take them home.

DSCC statement on Maine senate race

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and DSCC Chair Senator Kirsten Gillibrand released the following statement on the Maine Senate race: 

"The allegations reported today are incredibly disturbing - violence, abuse and defiantly assault are absolutely unacceptable.

"Graham Platner needs to immediately withdraw as the Democratic nominee for Senate and allow Maine Democrats the opportunity to choose a new candidate who can defeat Susan Collins. The DSCC will not invest in the Maine Senate race if Platner remains on the ballot. "

This is definitely because I've been reading romance through a heatwave (working my way though Angela Casella's back catalog, can recommend) but this looks like it should be the background to a very hot kiss towards the end of a romcom
