Hey #louisville! Anyone know these dogs?? Found them running around the Highlands between Barret and Baxter. Collars but no tags. I’ll take them tomorrow to see if they’re chipped but in the meantime if you could help me out that would be great!

Why Daylight Saving Time Messes With Your Brain
To "spring forward" is more damaging to our health than to "fall back," according to some surprising science.

Most Americans on Sunday will “spring forward,” the annual ritual of advancing our clocks by an hour in a bid to capture more sunlight.
But most Mexicans won’t adjust their clocks this spring after their country ended daylight saving time. wapo.st/48M2Hvl

There are so many examples of Trump mispronouncing words, slurring his speech, etc. And he’s not someone who has an actual speech problem that they’ve largely overcome. Yet the media doesn’t say a damn thing about it.

A long shot but wtf.
When I was photographing birds on the empty beach south of Barcelona's airport, this magnificent gentleman waved to me, pointed to himself, and immediately struck a pose. I fired off this frame, we shared a laugh from 50m, and went on our ways.
I'd love to get it to him.

I have a thick memory of sitting on a plane while Christine Blasey Ford testified. It was on every in-flight screen. 40% of the plane was sobbing. A woman reached over while I cried and held my hand. It was a national trauma to watch a woman testify and know it would make no difference.
At the 4 minute mark in this clip Jake Tapper says Brett Kavanaugh was "unfairly smeared" during his confirmation hearing which is quite a fucking claim to make.
