Our man is in trouble this time, reader. Art supplies are scattered around a painting of an abstract cityscape. On the canvas we see a man in a telephone booth making a frantic call to his cat, Bongo. In the foreground, an answering machine is taking his voicemail, [Leave a message at the beep] --- “Bongo, Daddy got stuck in the painting.

A woman was drugged, raped, and sexually trafficked to members of a fraternity. Two of the men involved were expelled. Five were given the opportunity to mitigate suspension by *writing an essay.* The dozens of other men who knew this was happening and said nothing? You already know the answer.

Making gluten free pancakes from scratch. I want to take a moment to honor my ancestors who couldn’t farm their way out of a bucket. I don’t know how we fucked up wheat but we did. Shoutout to ergot fungus. Not a problem on any other continent by the way.
