Was listening to the Notre Dame radio broadcast while doing leaves (before it started pouring), and they use the ND band playing what I can only describe as β€œren and stimpy” music coming back from break.

Amanita phalloides is the most poisonous of all known mushrooms.[6][7][8] It is estimated that as little as half a mushroom contains enough toxin to kill an adult human.[9] It is also the deadliest mushroom worldwide, responsible for 90% of mushroom-related fatalities every year.[10] It has been involved in the majority of human deaths from mushroom poisoning,[11] possibly including Roman Emperor Claudius in AD 54 and Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI in 1740.[12] It has also been the subject of much research and many of its biologically active agents have been isolated. The principal toxic constituent is Ξ±-Amanitin, which causes liver and kidney failure.

Reading about Death Cap mushrooms. The phrase β€œβ€¦responsible for 90% of mushroom-related fatalities ever year,” is an incredible thing to say.

Poor ICE agent going to sporting events later in life and getting PTSD flashbacks at hot dog vendors or when they bring out the t-shirt slingshot

β€œJuan Soto cannot save you from eternal damnation” I yelled outside of Citi Field, being dragged away by the police. Mr. Met lies bleeding on the ground, a blood-stained bat signed by Benny Agbayani lying next to him.

I remember watching like UCF vs Memphis or something years ago and it was just constant points, and Chris Spielman was openly disgusted by the lack of defense being played.

The tight end for Ole Miss literally fell down and then popped back up to catch a touchdown against Oklahoma. This game is off the rails.

Firing a guy after a horrible home loss to Northwestern to then hire a guy who also lost at home to Northwestern would be incredible.

The Electric City The city of Scranton took its first step toward earning its reputation as the Electric City on December 6, 1880. On that date, electric lights were introduced at the Dickson Locomotive Works. This …

Very, very bad news for the futures of our hospitals in NEPA. Geisinger is poised to be the only game in town in a year or two.
