Yikes, indeed. I had no idea that serious metal health issues were so prevalent in the United States.

The last bit of proof that you need that Madcow isn't a journalist, when she upbraids her colleague for actually doing real journalistic things.

Pity no one got it on video.

The second half of the video is an excellent explanation of what's going on right now, too.

I'll give up some tax breaks if Trump gets like 24,576 new mental hospitals online, and brings back the guys in white coats with butterfly nets.

Fun reaction thread. I especially liked the guy who walked through midtown Manhattan in a MAGA hat the day after the election.

I'm surprised, though, that no one attached the guy.

The first one, I don't know if she just wants an excuse to persuade people to wear masks regardless who's president, or if she just likes to feel like she's had some brilliant insight. "Who are you who are so wise in the ways of democracy?" -  I'm guessing it's both.

The third one is an SNL sketch come to life.

BREAKING: Ontario Premier Doug Ford threatens to cut off fuel to the United States if Trump tariffs Canada.

"We need to be ready to fight [on] January the 20th."

"We will go to the extent of cutting off their energy, going down to Michigan, going down to New York State and over to Wisconsin."

"I don't want this to happen, but my number one job is to protect Ontario, Ontarians and Canadians as a whole since we're the largest province."

"Let's see what happens as we move forward. But we'll use every tool in our toolbox, including cutting them off energy that we're sending down there."

Here in the STL, I have an ongoing challenge to a few of the true believers, who claim that it really was mostly peaceful, etc., etc...
 
I'll buy a pair of MAGA hats. We go to the west end of an entertainment district, put them on, and walk the ten or so blocks, during Friday afternoon happy hour.
 
No takers as of yet.
 
Mostly about "I'd never put that hat on." Sure...
