Bear found in two day sugar coma after eating 40 pounds of ice cream. When workers opened an Arkansas ice cream shop, they thought the bear on the floor was dead. The freezer was destroyed, cones were crushed everywhere, and CCTV showed the bear breaking in overnight and eating its way through more than 40 pounds of ice cream before collapsing beside the display case.
Wildlife officers rushed him to a clinic, where vets realized he was still alive. His heart rate had dropped, his breathing was slow, and his body had basically crashed from the sugar, cold food, and exhaustion. For two days, he slept under watch, and when he finally woke up, he was groggy, sticky, and still licking vanilla off his paw. The shop turned the chaos into its best ad campaign ever, selling a new flavor called “Bearly Awake”

One thing everyone might be missing: are adults not letting their older teens have a glass of wine anymore?
When I was 16, my parents would (on special occasions) let me have a glass of wine with dinner.
Perhaps that was never common. But I wouldn't be surprised if it is less common today. Maybe that is contributing to the decline in teens who have ever had alcohol.
Not sure what you all are seeing with other families.

Just found this official decree from the Washington Governor’s Office…
They’ve officially banned aimless driving.
No more cruising. No more joyrides. No more “I’m just clearing my head, officer.”
You must have a lawful destination at all times or face a $1,000 fine.
Welcome to the People’s Republic of Washington, where even your Sunday drive needs prior approval.
Governor Ferguson has solved traffic congestion by making driving illegal unless you’re going somewhere productive.
Next up: banning “aimless walking,” “purposeless staring out the window,” and breathing without a five-year plan.
Washingtonians, start practicing your excuse scripts now:
“Yes officer, I am driving to acquire oat milk for my emotional support latte.”
This is peak 2026 energy.
Government: “We care about your safety!”
Also government: “But first, show me your destination on this here form, citizen.”
The only thing aimless now is common sense. Hopefully you got a chuckle. Now days I wouldn’t put anything past them.

@BangSwitchMatt @BairyHalsack Lefties know the truth. They promote policies leading to violence and chaos to justify seizing power.

Not sure how I am only just now hearing this*, but in case you had not heard it, that POS dirtbag with the AR that went on a shooting rampage in Cambridge, MA the other day, he was stopped by an armed civilian who was joined by a cop, they worked as a team, and stopped the suspect.
You know, ALL of the stuff that the antigun crowd says NEVER happens.
In fact, this one incident is the perfect example of how every relevant democrat policy is dead wrong.
- Democrat soft on crime policies put a multiple time convicted felon and attempted cop killer back on the street in the blink of an eye.
- MA strict gun laws (rated an A by Giffords) did absolutely nothing to prevent a convicted felon from getting a gun.
- An armed private citizen actually engaged the suspect.
- When the cops arrived, despite what antigun Dems love to say, the cop was immediately able to tell the difference between the armed civilian and the armed shitbag.
- The cops did not shoot the wrong person.
- The armed civilian did not shoot a bunch of random innocent people.
- The armed civilian and the cop worked together to end the situation, saving innocent lives.
Guns Save Lives! Practice your ABC's - Always Be Carrying!
(* Actually, I do know why it took so long to come out, the MSM doesn't like it when armed civilians save the day.)

When I was a college student, I once addressed a professor as “Mister” and he condescendingly tut-tutted me and said “Doctor.” Hey, listen, unless you can save someone’s life or you’re Julius Erving, you can settle the fuck down with that energy.

Today, a CIA whistleblower sat before my committee and confirmed what I've said for years: government officials, including Dr. Fauci, deliberately misled the American people about the origins of COVID-19. This is not a conspiracy theory. This is sworn testimony. 🧵

Silvio Berlusconi’s ‘Rule of 30’:
‘Before appointing a minister, you should ask them a simple question that’s more useful than any CV. How many women have you been with? Because if they say fewer than thirty, they can’t be a minister. They’re not vaccinated against life.’
Michele Arnese@Michele_Arnese
Sul Foglio, l’ex deputato di Forza Italia Andrea Ruggieri racconta a Salvatore Merlo di quando, con Silvio Berlusconi, aveva elaborato la seguente teoria: prima di nominare un ministro bisognerebbe domandargli con quante donne è stato, «perché se quello risponde meno di trenta, il ministro non lo può fare. Non è vaccinato alla vita». A riportare d’attualità questo aneddoto è il pettegolezzo riguardo a un altro ministro del governo Meloni deciso a ricalcare le orme di Gennaro Sangiuliano e Matteo Piantedosi, vicenda di cui tutti parlano senza fare nomi, ma solo iniziali (lo ha fatto Fiorello in radio). Merlo ricorda in proposito quello che Giorgia Meloni, mesi fa, avrebbe confessato ad alcuni amici: «Quanto sarebbe meglio un governo di sole donne». (Francesco Cundari)

Blacklock gave Judge D’Metria Benson until Friday to justify the policy or withdraw.

Robert Kennedy Jr. wants to do the most basic thing science can do - compare the health outcomes of vaccinated children to unvaccinated children using the largest medical database in America. That's it. That's the study. That's the scientific method. And the American Academy of Pediatrics is suing him to stop it. Think about what that means. Not content with blocking changes to the vaccine schedule, they are now going to court to prevent an investigation into whether the schedule is actually producing healthy children. The one question the entire program should have been answering for fifty years, and the people who run that program are fighting in federal court to make sure it never gets asked. This is an industry protecting itself from its own data. I am not accusing anyone in medicine of malice. I am saying that the long-term health investigation has never been done with the seriousness it deserves, and now that someone is finally trying to do it, there is a worldwide effort to shut it down before it starts. We have to do this study. We have databases right now, like the Henry Ford Health database, that could give us real answers. Every database in this country should be opened to this investigation. The scientific method demands it. The health of our children demands it. The only people who have something to fear from the truth are the ones fighting this hard to hide from it.

NEW: A disabled woman is suing homeless services in Portland, Oregon, after she was denied rent relief due to her low score on the city's race-based prioritization rubric, which awards more points for requesting "culturally specific services" than for having a disability.🧵
