The cyclospora outbreak has reached 13,895 cases across 47 states. The FDA has recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination. Screwworm cases continue to rise. And we’ve just surpassed 2,500 measles cases — breaking 2025’s record. “Make America Healthy Again.”

David Attenborough, the voice of Our Planet: “Things are going to get worse”
The voice of some of the most stunning nature documentaries ever made is pessimistic about the future of wildlife on earth.

Have you guys heard about Jimothy, the raccoon who was born with a shortened spine? He's famous in Seattle and, as of late, worldwide. Someone created a theme song for him, and it's awesome. I love this little fella. I might start calling my dog Libby (Mooch) "Libbothy."😆

Repost @mickydolenz: This month in 1967, @themonkees released “Pleasant Valley Sunday.” Written by the extraordinary Gerry Goffin and Carole King, the song reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 11 in the U.K. And somehow, it still feels just as much fun to sing all these years later.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are on a walk, and pass by a gas station under construction.
Blue: Oh look, they're renovating the gas station.
Green: Huh.

Blue and Green sit down to watch the work.
Green: I wonder where they put the old guys who always sit at the front.
Blue: I think they're still there.

The foxes watch as the group of old men sit at an outdoor table right next to the construction site, stoically enduring the sand and dust getting into their eyes and coffee mugs.
Green: Impressive dedication.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is a soft muted grey. In this one, Blue is helping the foxes' elderly neighbour carry groceries.
Neighbour: Thanks for helping me run my errands.

Arriving at her home, Blue sets the groceries down, while the neighbour starts digging her purse.
Blue: It's nothing, we're neighbours and I was home anyway.
Neighbour: Here's for your trouble.

Seeing the neighbour offering money, Blue leans back, trying to reject it. Determined to reimburse him for his time, she leans in just a aggressively as he is trying to lean away.
Blue: Oh, no need-
Neighbour: I am not a charity case. Take the damn money.

Arriving home visibly shaken, Blue is carrying the money that the neighbour offered. Green is sitting at his computer, looking towards Blue.
Green: How was it?
Blue: She drives a hard bargain.

Its funny how everyone's idea of heaven is a complete untouched paradise, crystal clear waters, lush green forests, enough food for everyone, classless, moneyless, stateless, a Utopia of peace, unity and happiness. But here on earth it's considered a leftist ideology.

A contractor building Meta's data center flushed its "closed-loop" cooling system straight into Cheyenne's sewer. It carried a bacterium and knocked the city's water-reuse system offline for months. They sell these as sealed systems that barely touch the water. This one poisoned a city's.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are outside, as Green frowns at an unwelcome noise.
Green: Ugh, someone's watching videos on full volume.

Green turns to Blue, who calmly hands him a pair of earbuds.
Green: Do you have my spare earbuds?
Blue: Here.

Taking the earbuds, Green starts swinging them by the end of the wire like a slungshot. As he lets them loose, they hit the video-watching stranger on the back of the head with enough force to startle them and drop the phone.

GOOD NEWS! A personalized mRNA vaccine, known as mRNA-4157, has shown promise in keeping melanoma, a deadly skin cancer, from returning. FIVE years later, NEARLY 70% of people in the vaccine group are CANCER-FREE. The vaccine also cut a person’s risk of the cancer metastasizing by NEARLY 60%.

A personalized vaccine for melanoma cut the risk of cancer returning after five years
If the vaccine is effective in a late-stage trial, it would be “paradigm-shifting,” one expert said.
