Congratulations to my NIU Huskies. I was a Huskie first. I grew up in those stands. I remember being at the game that ended the longest losing streak in the country (amid a rain delay nonetheless.) That school has overcome so much. Celebrate today's victory.

I have no idea how this NIU/ND game will end, but Northern Illinois just got jobbed with the worst spot & review in the history of football.

. @noodlescompany rewards is the absolute WORST. What kind of loyalty program FIFOs points to expire? I just made a purchase at Noodles on 6/15 but received this email on 6/17 that I'll be losing some points. Why isn't recent avtivity enough to keep ALL points active?

Let's play…What Bin? The game where we figure out how to best dispose of certain items.

Today's item is: plastic take-out containers.

Dispose of clear plastic take-out containers in your recycling bin! Black plastic can be reused or thrown in the trash. #WhatBinWednesday

Oh please yes.

HOT TAKE from Milken Conference:

Very possible a viable 3rd party candidate pops up. And soon.

There is money and momentum behind it. Not a fringe.

Massive frustration with DNC moves even among left/center left.

Mitt Romney and Glenn Youngkin kept coming up. Newsom too. Both Youngkin and Newsom were at the conference. Newsome at dinner in Bev Hills last night.

May not happen but a large number number of left-leaning heavy hitters are making moves behind scenes.

Not saying it will happen but it was being whispered pretty loudly to me.

I'm disappointed the "return to work" nursing clothes I ordered from @hmusa before Easter still haven't arrived. Telephone customer support was no help yesterday. I'm grateful you carry clothing for pregnant & nursing women. Please consider adding to your in store collection.

. #Motherhood is wild. I'll take 57 identical pictures of my baby & not be able to delete a single one because "she looks so cute." 🤣

It's been 15 years since the mass shooting at #NIU. I, like so many others, will never forget that day. #ForwardTogetherForward https://t.co/1tevTsqjtn

Rihanna returned to the stage on Sunday to headline the Super Bowl halftime show and made a major personal announcement without saying a word: A representative for the singer confirmed that she is pregnant. https://t.co/sYdPDej9b7

With F22 fighter jets shooting million dollar missiles maybe China’s secret balloon strategy is to slowly bankrupt us.

[Secretary Pete Buttigieg @SecretaryPete]

Sometimes an airline will offer you points or miles as compensation, but you are entitled to a cash refund when your flight is canceled.

When deciding whether to accept miles, it’s helpful to know their value, which varies, but often is estimated at 1 to 1.5 cents per mile.

Police could have stopped the Uvalde school shooting in 3 minutes, says a top Texas law enforcement official.

Instead, it took them about an hour and 14.

“Spare me the bullshit of mental illness,” says Sen. Murphy of the United States. “We’re not an outlier on mental illness, we’re an outlier on firearms”

I’m a gun owner. Do not tell me our Founders conceived of this carnage when they wrote the Constitution. Do not tell me they would have tolerated this madness. Do not tell me that teachers must be armed. And do not tell me your AR15 is worth more than another 14 children’s lives.

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way
