. @dog_rates THREAD: This is my Stormy boy. He adopted me on 2/19/10 when he nervously approached me in the parking lot of my office. I thought he was a puppy, but he was just a bit emaciated. I took him in to keep him alive and warm, and find him a good home... #heckcancer 1/

At this hour, every station in Arizona and Nevada is recording a new *ALL-TIME* monthly record highs. Numerous other states have a majority of stations also recording new all-time high temperatures. Historic is, in my opinion, an understatement.

All 1,077 of Braden Smith’s NCAA-record assists - here’s how they were distributed to his teammates.

A good read. Note that we are still in a pandemic. IMHO for public health to adopt the new paradigm will require new leadership. Only then will the toxic culture of «I know best, I’m the expert» be forced to change. lnkd.in/gvBq4D8h

I believe this is where the radar that detected the first hook echo was once located. It’s at Willard airport and you can see it from hole 14 of university of Illinois golf course (the blue course) if you’re ever in Champaign!

Did your kid commit suicide or shoot up a school with detailed AI instructions and encouragement? That's just the price of progress, you can't hold big tech accountable, how dare you even think about it. - The White House

Enormously massively huge studies have shown that each wave of Covid infections causes damage to people's immune systems. The science is incontrovertible. And yet you will not find a single media article about the current meningitis outbreak that mentions that.

These are concentration camps

We're at the "hide the coffins" stage of the war.

I hope for a world that normalizes and encourages therapy for all. I would go as far to say most people don't become the best versions of themselves without it I hope one day what A.J. said in his tribute to Rondale Moore here becomes reality. It would change lives

After Rondale Moore’s death, A.J. Green is calling for better mental health resources: “I’m not an expert on mental health. I’m a former football player, and I’m writing this as Rondale’s former teammate, and — more importantly — his friend. So please have that in mind when I tell you, in my opinion, Rondale wasn’t planning on any of this. To me? He was just a kid. And he was a kid who was struggling a lot with the idea of losing his identity as a football player. It’s two major injuries … two long rehabs … two seasons away from being part of a locker room … two years of not knowing if he’s ever gonna have more NFL checks coming through. So you add that all up, and it probably doesn’t take an expert to think there’s a good chance Rondale was depressed. But I could also see encouraging signs. Like — he was talking about the future. He wasn’t just on one of these downward spirals. If anything, he seemed to be slowly pointing back in an upward direction. The thing is, though, that upward direction……. It’s not a straight line. There’s gonna be dips. And when those dips come, for whatever reason, you need to be able to manage them in time before your shit hits the bottom.... To me there’s a lot that could still be improved in the NFL, as far as how the league is helping its players with their mental health. And one way I would start is by making it mandatory, if you have a major injury, that you see an independent mental health counselor as part of your rehab. And by also making it mandatory, if you have a second major injury, that you see an independent mental health counselor for an extended period of time, even after your rehab. And the reason I say this — it’s because I’m not an expert. You know what I’m saying? Like, Rondale, he had a support system. He wasn’t alone. He had friends who loved him, family who loved him. But those relationships can be complicated. And while those people can give you love and support … what they can’t give you is professional help, and what they can’t do is equip you with tools so that, if you ever do have a mental health crisis, or even just a really bad day, you know how to handle it. And you don’t go and do something you can never undo. In my opinion, if Rondale’d had those tools, he might still be alive today. And I want to make sure we’re never saying that again about a young NFL player. Because I keep coming back to this one part about it — and it may be the part that’s most heartbreaking to me: Rondale was 25, man. He was so damn young. He really was just a kid. And then there’s one more thing I want to say about mental health in the NFL — and I hope that everyone who needs to read this is reading it. All the rules … all the initiatives … all the public statements about awareness … none of that means anything if the people who are making the football decisions, in private, are viewing mental health issues how I feel like a lot of times they still get viewed: as a red flag. That’s the truth. No one in any front office will ever say it out loud. No scout is ever gonna put it in a scouting report. But that’s how it’s viewed in this league by a lot of people. And as long as that’s the case? Stories like Rondale’s will probably keep happening. Because it means we’re telling players that having a mental health issue is gonna fuck with their money. And if we’re telling players that, then we’re creating an incentive for them to lie about their mental health. And if players lie about their mental health, then they’re going to feel shame about their mental health. And they’re not going to get the help they need — and whatever issues they’re facing are not going to get better, and are probably going to get worse. So that’s one of the big reasons I want people to read this. I want to celebrate Rondale’s life……… but I also want to make sure we’re having the realest conversation possible about his death. And the way I see it, while Rondale didn’t necessarily die because of NFL culture — NFL culture also didn’t do him no favors. It didn’t HELP him. And I just hope we can get to a place where, for the next young player going through a mental health crisis, it actually does help him. Or it even saves him.” playerstribu.ne/Rondale

“Not all your friends are your teammates. Not all your teammates are your friends.” I understand why Kyle Pitts was disappointed with Rondale Moore’s teammates. It’s a reminder that teammate doesn’t equate to friend. Although, I’ve felt it imperative to show up for my teammates who have passed & their families. I actually attended a funeral this weekend. One thing stood out. Showing up for your people is priority #1! It’s imperative to create the memories now that we’ll celebrate for eternity. @ThePivot #RCconfessionals “Pivotal Points” #KylePitts #RondaleMoore #Friendship

Got to #12 before starting to tear up. Beautiful tribute to Rondale Moore. Thank you @Aj_greene15 💛🖤. theplayerstribune.com/aj-green-nfl-f…

Well, if yesterday's map was ridiculous, I'm running out of superlatives to characterize today's. Countless locations from Pacific Coast to Great Plains are currently experiencing all-time record March warmth, w/ some locations approaching/exceeding April (or even May) records.

Jesus, I thought Colin Jost was exaggerating....

So sick of fucking billionaire supervillians.

@VORTEXJeff We try to do the same unless time is a factor. Some of the best meals I've ever had.

Our sit-down meals are almost always at local places

Here it is! FIRST CONFIRMED METEORITE. Roberto Vargas, a Meteorite Hunter from Connecticut was the first to find an official fragment from the St. Patrick's Day Asteroid Explosion in Medina County Ohio. It weighs 10 grams. Officials from the American Meteor Society also confirmed 2 other 5 gram fragments were found nearby today. All are rare fragments known as "achondrites," formed by the melting and re-crystallization on larger asteroids. No meteorite of any kind has been found in Ohio since the 1990s...until today. Truly historic! Show this to you friends and family.

@TYHilton13 @1075thefan Proud to have been in the building for your first pro TD in 2012. We love ya, TY!
