Experts estimate USAID cuts are leading to 88 deaths PER HOUR. A UN office called these “the deepest funding cuts ever to hit the international humanitarian sector.” If funding isn't resumed, they estimate an additional 10 million cases & 2 million preventable deaths by 2030: tb.impactcounter.com

As far as the Open Cup goes, Austin FC waits for a semifinal match in September with a chance to host the final. But the most important wait now is for the star forward's MRI results.

Just saw Presence in theaters. It was good, but not a horror movie at all. More of a drama movie that’s a tad bit spooky.

Big sign of ambition from #AustinFC. You can imagine a scenario where ownership is tired of paying players/staff to go away and telling Rodo that he has to work with what he has. The fact that they are allowing this buyout is good news for Austin fans hoping for a big offseason.
Sources: Austin FC exercise contract buyout on forward Gyasi Zardes.
The move removes Zardes from the club's roster and salary cap, freeing up flexibility.
Zardes, 33, is the 10th all-time leading scorer in MLS history with 106 regular season goals.

Pleasantly surprised to see that Leroy and Lewis is still a quick lunch option after their star. Great food and the line wasn’t crazy.
Plus, they’re the only good barbecue spot I’ve ever seen open on Mondays

I’m making a rum cake this morning and I thought I had all the ingredients but it turns out I somehow forgot to double check that I had vanilla extract. Time for a quick run to H-E-B.

3. I read the thing so many goddamned times while writing and revising. So many. YET STILL I ERR

Is there a modern day alternative to Urban Spoon? Something to make the decision on where to eat when you don’t feel like making choices yourself?

Why does anxiety have to suck so much? I took my meds and I still feel like I can hardly get out of bed this afternoon. Here’s hoping things get better soon.
