What I am learning this weekend is that however much document-related crime you think Trump did and however stupidly you think he did it, it was way way more of both of those things.

Can confirm - I have all of these symptoms except asthma attack (so far!). Stay safe and inside, everyone.

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

New Yorkers: smoke from Canadian wildfires will continue to impact air quality in much of the state today. Our team is monitoring conditions closely.

I, for one, welcome our new orca overlords.

[Will Rinehart @WillRinehart]

Orcas have sunk 3 boats in Europe and appear to be teaching others to do the same. Scientists think a traumatized orca initiated the assault on boats after a "critical moment of agony" and that the behavior is spreading among the population. https://t.co/zJdP8eHtQW

We all thought #SuccesionHBO was going to be like Game of Thrones but actually the template they're using is How I Met Your Mother.

The number of people responding to this (mostly on FB) who think I'm asking because I am unfamiliar with these books/series/universes is HILARIOUS. Folks, this is a playful thought exercise, not Please Explain My Favorite Books From High School To Me

This lecture was also my introduction to the apparently common nutritionist terms "TOFI" (Thin Outside Fat Inside) and "Skinnyfat." The belief that fat must equal unhealthy is built into the professional jargon, no matter what their own research finds.

I once spent a memorable (mandatory, for school) afternoon listening to a sports medicine researcher saying exactly this (insulin resistance and weight are loosely correlated at best) and then immediately pivoting into 2 hours of how his clinic helps people lose weight. Sigh.
