Pretty sure the Tkachuks are missing their frontal lobes, so I’m not getting my hopes up.

Judge the code, not the coder. Your prejudice is hurting matplotlib.

Adding It to Pizza as a Topping
If you're talking about properly cooked bear meat (e.g., the one associated with RFK Jr.'s story, though that specific bear was a roadkill cub dumped in Central Park and not eaten), using it as a pizza topping could incorporate those nutrients into a meal. Pizza itself isn't inherently "healthy" (due to refined carbs, cheese, and potential high sodium/calories), but swapping in lean bear meat instead of processed pepperoni or sausage could make it a bit more nutrient-denseβ€”higher protein, more iron, less processed additives.
However, "healthy" depends on the overall diet, portion size, and preparation. It's not a superfood, but it can be a solid, lean protein source.

According to realfood.gov / Grok, RFK Jr could have eaten that bear. It's a healthier pizza topping than pepperoni or sausage

I asked if properly cooking Elon's flesh and using it as a pizza topping would be healthy. Grok said even cooking to 165 degrees wouldn't eliminate prions, viruses, etc.

Don’t see how elections can be canceled, but I’m guessing they’ll try to direct the Treasury to stop issuing Congressional paychecks, which is an entirely different ballgame
