Endurance athletes have been drinking pickle juice for electrolyte replacement for years. Glad to see the NFL finally figured this out.

The β€˜Kuhn, the autocrat’ is spot on. He is also never wrong, just ask him.

Bison zoomies. That could get out of hand.

Perhaps now would be a good time to volunteer to be an AE for PLOS GPH. If the SEs at GPH have as hard a time getting AEs as we do at PLOS NTDs, I am sure they would be interested. I routinely carry 10-20 manuscripts as an SE so asking SEs to review as well as manage is a bit much.

Can DOJ close the cases and refile in, say, 4 years? Assuming Trump doesn’t somehow pardon himself?
