DNA is really so crazy, have y'all heard that story about the woman who had a baby with her husband and when he got a DNA test done he wasn't the father the mother insisted he was the dad so much so that they repeated the test numerous times the couple got divorced and the man refused tor be in the child's life it later came out based off the DNA results that he wasn't the father but the uncle of the child which was impossible because he was an only child after a more extensive DNA test they found out the husband was actually a chimera which essentially means he had a twin brother that he ate in utero essentially absorbing his DNA. So basically the unborn, twin brother was the father even though the husband bore the child.

A parasite that has been eating people for 3,500 years is about to be wiped off the planet. It infected 3.5 million people in 1986. Last year, it infected 10. And I have not seen it make a single front page.

It is called Guinea worm. You drink contaminated water from a pond in a poor village. A year later, a worm up to three feet long starts coming out of your leg through a burning blister. There is no pill that stops it and no surgery that works. You wrap the worm around a stick and pull it out slowly, over days or weeks, inch by inch. If you rush, the worm breaks inside you and causes a fresh infection.

Guinea worm is ancient. Preserved worms have been pulled out of Egyptian mummies from around 1000 BCE. The Ebers Papyrus, an Egyptian medical scroll from 1550 BCE, describes pulling the worm out with a stick. For three and a half thousand years, that was the best humans could do.

Then in 1986, public health workers decided to kill the parasite off. They had no vaccine and no drug. What they had was cheap cloth water filters and a small army of volunteers willing to walk from village to village for decades.

The plan was simple. Give everyone who drinks from a pond a cloth filter to strain out the tiny water fleas that spread the parasite. Then send volunteers walking house to house, year after year, teaching people how to use the filters and keeping anyone with an emerging worm out of the water.

It worked. From 3.5 million cases a year to 10. Four were in Chad, four in Ethiopia, two in South Sudan. The other four countries where the worm used to be common, Angola, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, and Mali, had zero human cases for the second year in a row. The World Health Organization has already certified 200 countries as Guinea worm free. Six are left.

The last hurdle is dogs. Cameroon had 445 infected animals last year and Chad had 147, so a lot of the remaining work is on animals, not humans. Strays get leashed, and crews treat ponds to kill any remaining worms. The campaign keeps watching until the number hits zero.

When Guinea worm hits zero, it becomes the second human disease ever erased from the planet. The first was smallpox. It will also be the first parasite humans have ever wiped out, and the first disease ever ended without a single dose of medicine. Volunteers walked village to village with cloth filters for 40 years. Now a plague from the age of the pharaohs is about to be gone.

Made a “Wizards Misery Bracket” a few years ago that I feel like I should post here

This team is so brutal

[Nick Bateman @nickbateman33]

The Wizards haven’t won 50 games in a season since 1978-79

They haven’t played in a conference finals game since 1978-79 (longest drought in American sports)

They have exactly 50 wins in their last 250 games (3+ seasons)

They have the worst win % in the NBA from 2000-2026, 2010-2026 and 2020-2026

They were 1 lottery ball away from Zion, Wemby & Flagg

Gilbert Arenas pulled out a Glock in the locker room on Christmas Eve

Instead of signing Kevin Durant in 2016 they signed Ian Mahinmi

John Wall slipped in his bathtub and shattered his Achilles right after signing a $250 million supermax and never played another game with the team

They drafted Kwame Brown

They drafted Jan Vesely over Kawhi. Vesely retired with more fouls than points

They wanted Steph Curry but traded the 5th pick in 09 for Randy Foye instead

They officially have the worst record in the NBA again and if Adam Silver gives this team the 5th pick there will be legitimate riots in DC

Let me explain exactly why every new subdivision in America looks like the top photo, because the math is wild.

A mature tree increases a home's value by 7 to 19 percent. On a $400,000 house, that's $28,000 to $76,000. A single shade tree produces the cooling equivalent of ten room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day. One tree on the west side of a house cuts energy bills by 12 percent within 15 years. The bottom photo is worth more, costs less to live in, and sells faster. This has been documented by the University of Washington, Clemson, Michigan State, and the USDA. The data is not in dispute.

Removing those trees saves the builder roughly $5,000 per lot. Concrete trucks need twice the dripline radius of every standing tree. Utility trenches need flat ground. A bulldozer flattens 200 lots in an afternoon. Preserving trees adds weeks and thousands per home.

So the developer pockets $5,000 in savings and the buyer eats $50,000 in lost value for the next two decades. The person making the decision and the person paying for it have never been in the same room.

The Woodlands, Texas is the proof of what happens when they are. George Mitchell bought 28,000 acres of Houston timberland in 1974 and preserved 28% as permanent green space. He forced McDonald's to build behind the tree canopy. That McDonald's became one of the highest-volume locations in Texas. The first office building, designed to reflect the surrounding forest so you couldn't see it from the street, leased completely.

The Woodlands median home price today: $615,000. Katy, a comparable Houston suburb that clear-cut: $375,000. Named #1 community to live in America two years running.

Fifty years of data. The trees are worth more than removing them saves. Developers clear-cut anyway because they sell the house once and leave. You live in it for 30 years.

Developers def did not take that animation into consideration 💀

Median family income in the US increased from $10,000 in 1971 to $106,000 today, a 10x increase.

However, the median cost of homes increased from $25,000 to $445,000, a 17x increase.

And the median cost of cars increased from $3,600 to $50,000, a 14x increase.

The median cost of college increased from $2,900 a year to $45,000, a 16x increase.

And the average cost of healthcare per person increased from $350 to $14,600, a 42x increase.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE.

My friend has this unhinged habit every time he stays at an Airbnb and I swear one day he’s gonna get banned from every listing on the map.

Dude checks out, but before he leaves, he goes room to room and strips every single sheet, pillowcase, and blanket off every bed in the place. Not just the one he slept in , all of them. Then he piles everything onto one bed and builds this full “sheet person” sitting upright like it’s waiting for housekeeping to walk in.

He says it’s “just a harmless joke” and that the cleaning crew needs a good surprise to keep the job interesting. I told him that’s not a surprise , that’s a mini ❤️ attack at 10 in the morning when you open the door alone.

He was proud of it too. Took a picture like it’s a tradition. Meanwhile I’m like yeah… enjoy that future cleaning fee and the permanent host notes on your profile 😭

AVERAGE TOM BRADY COMMENTARY: As a QB, you’re looking to see if your receiver has that extra step on the corner and can cut back outside. You’re dealing with fine margins, Kevin.

AVERAGE TONY ROMO COMMENTARY: You ever think about eating a football, Jim? I have.

[Nick @NicholesCage]

False. President Trump failed at being a president and shut them the country because he had no idea what to do. He is incapable of solving problems like this. Remember back in 2013 how he once said that a government shutdown will always be the president's responsibility? If there is a shutdown, the blame rests on the president. Here's the video where he said exactly that. As usual, you losers shift the blame where it doesn't belong
