The United States of America: home to just 4% of the world’s population but 40% of the world's guns.

We're told that if we publish this Democrat's mugshot - she'll sue us to take it down. Our response? BRING IT ON. Grace Carol Brown 22 of New Braunfels faces a Texas t*rrorism charge after a January fire at the Comal County Republican Party headquarters. ⠀ On Jan 14 employees found a broken exterior window and a small fire that caused only minor damage with no injuries at the Landa Street building which also houses other businesses. ⠀ A Comal County grand jury indicted her in April on the first degree t*rrorism count along with earlier state arson and burglary charges. ⠀ Federal prosecutors later added an indictment for actual and attempted malicious damage by fire alleging she broke a window threw in a backpack containing ethanol gasoline a lighter and matches then lit a rolled magazine and tossed it inside after failing to climb through. ⠀ She allegedly left a note calling the local GOP the Nazi Party of New Braunfels and attacking ICE and certain executive branch officials she labeled enemies of the Constitution. ⠀ Brown was arrested without incident on Jan 22 after search warrants and if convicted faces five to 20 years on the federal charge. ⠀ Political disagreement belongs at the ballot box and anyone who tries to settle it with fire deserves serious consequences if the allegations are proven. ⠀ #PoliticalViolence #TexasCourts

When scientists let dogs pick their own food, something surprising happened. The dogs did not reach for the starchy kibble most owners buy. Instead, they built their own meals that looked a lot more like what wolves eat in the wild. In one careful study, dogs from different breeds were offered several foods at once. Some were high in protein, some high in fat, and some high in carbs. After the dogs had time to learn what each food did, they settled on a clear pattern. About 30 percent of their calories came from protein, 63 percent from fat, and only 7 percent from carbohydrate. The same balance showed up across breeds. They actively avoided the high-carb options and kept going back to the fatty ones. When food was unlimited, they also ate more total calories than their bodies strictly needed—an old “feast or famine” habit that helped wild dogs survive lean times. A follow-up test that ran longer found the same idea. Dogs started by grabbing the fat-rich food first. Over the days they slowly added more protein, but carbohydrates stayed a tiny part of what they chose. Other work with free-ranging dogs shows they hunt for meat smells even when cheaper scraps are easier to reach. These studies do not prove every dog should eat only raw meat. They do show that, given a real choice, most dogs still prefer a high-fat, moderate-protein, low-carb mix. That preference lines up with their ancestry far better than the carb-heavy bags sold at most pet stores.

I was talking with a friend about this yesterday. It’s literally unfathomable to me that someone would prefer to live somewhere not walkable just to have a bigger “nicer” house. Even with kids. I just cannot wrap my head around making the trade off of having to get in your car to do anything

I still genuinely don't remember making you all this stupid.
