The famous “this is fine” cartoon by KC Green depicts a dog sitting at a table with a thousand-yard stare and a coffee cup surrounded by flames. It also depicts how it feels to read work emails with the new Trump admin orders to shut down all federally funded diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

When Tsar Nicolas II was a young military commander, he would allegedly get drunk, strip naked, and prowl the streets of St. Petersburg at night pretending to be werewolves with his friends. From Vodka Politics by Mark Lawrence Schrad:
As one observer noted, “the main occupation of the Hussar regiment is getting drunk.” Based at Tsarskoe Selo—the suburban residence of the royal family located south of St. Petersburg—he described the ridiculous behavior of the elite regiment’s leadership: “They would frequently drink all day and into the evening, to the point of hallucination,” believing themselves no longer humans, but wolves. The officers all “stripped naked and ran out into the streets of Tsarskoe Selo, which are usually deserted at night. They crouched on their hands and knees, raised their drunken heads to the sky and began to howl loudly.” Apparently such lupine behavior by the young commander was so common that it was not at all surprising to the [continues] old commissariat waiter, who understood his place in this routine. “He would carry a big tub out onto the porch and fill it full of vodka or champagne. The whole pack of officers would then rush on all fours to the tub and lap up the wine with their tongues as they yelped and bit one another. Occasionally, an intoxicated commander would have to be pulled down—naked—from the roof of his home, where he was howling at the moon or drunkenly serenading the merchant’s wife.”1 Such behavior would be unbecoming for any regiment in a modern army. But this was no ordinary regiment: it was the elite Cossack cavalry of Russian Hussars.

can anyone help solve the mystery of what variety of pepper I planted? All I remember is that’s it’s probably sweet. I have no idea when to harvest 😅🌱

The head of the conservative Federalist Society tried to get a protestor charged with disorderly conduct for calling him a fascist.
Excerpt from The New Yorker: Leo said that he recognized Durand-McDonnell, who, he claimed, had been “harassing” him and his family “for weeks.” He told the officers, “I think it’s time for us to press some charges.” He continued, “I have to be honest with you . . . the man looks unstable. He looks hateful. He looks really angry, and he’s really starting to concern me.” (Durand-McDonnell acknowledges that he had blown kisses at Leo’s security guards, but denies harassing anyone.)
