Reminder to go touch grass
A scientist in Japan demonstrated that the air inside a forest strengthens your immune system for a full month
The study is incredibly fascinating:
Qing Li, an immunologist at Nippon Medical School in Tokyo, took 12 men on a 3-day forest trip. These were slow walks with no breathing exercises and no set route.
Then he tested their blood and found a surge in natural killer cells -- the immune cells your body uses to fight cancer and virus-infected cells.
Remarkably, the effect didn't fade when they went home, it was still measurable 30 days later.
A control group that walked the same distance through a city showed no change at all.
Pine, cedar, and cypress trees release compounds called phytoncides to defend themselves from insects and bacteria. You breathe them in, and Li believes they switch your immune cells into high gear.
He estimates one forest walk a month may be enough to keep those cells elevated all year.
The best medicine might not even need a prescription -- just a walk among the trees.
🚨 WOW! Aaron Rodgers just WENT OFF
"I'm gonna plead the 5th...like that absolute COWARD! Tony Fauci! Absolute coward. Are you kidding me? You got a pardon, you pleaded over 100 times? What are you SCARED of Tony?! I thought you were the 'science.' You were 'I AM SCIENCE!'"
"And you get up there and can't answer a question?"
"And how much time did the network spend on that? How much time did they spend on my responses every week? My vaccination status? On Taylor and Travis' wedding? Did they do even a minute on Tony Fauci?! I bet they didn't."

Aaron Rodgers successfully:
1. Calls Russini a hoe
2. Makes the entire McAfee set recoil in fear
3. Highlights the story getting swept under the rug
4. Makes me like him again
RODGERS FIRING SHOTS AT ESPN FOR THE DIANA RUSSINI SCANDAL:
“What are we doing? You have an individual that used to work at ESPN, that covers our league at the highest level… it’s a major scandal and NOBODY can talk about it? Like what are we doing?”
Jerry Jones on Tuesday: “Make no mistake about it, George (Pickens) could be a Cowboy for the rest of his career, and that’d be a long time.”
Pickens’ thoughts on those comments: “Super excited. I’m always super happy when someone thinks highly of me, so shot out to Jerry.”
Never forget the American who looked Fauci in the eye, refused the COVID vaccine, and called him out on camera.
Still one of the ballsiest moments of the entire pandemic.
Argentina fans were insulting a Mexican fan for supporting Spain in the 2026 World Cup final.
He responded by showing them a red card and dancing in front of them. 😂👋🏼
I agree with @MicahhParsons11 on this one.
Dak Prescott deserves more credit. He’s never had a losing season, he’s the only QB from his draft class that’s still on the team that drafted him.
If it was easy, everybody would do it, but they don’t.

The captain of Iran’s National Team, Mehdi Taremi, calls out FIFA and the U.S.:
“This is a disaster World Cup. We can’t stay in the country and have to travel every time we play without any recovery. Now we can’t stay in Seattle and have to return to Tijuana. This is not fair.”
