I know John Fetterman will be okay after checking himself in to Walter Reed for depression. I know he will. Half the country will be as small and evil as we can possibly imagine, and that is on them and there is nothing we can do to fix them. — People mag / NYT gift link on his recuperation challenges from a week ago that I thought would be meaner and shittier than it is, maybe the NYT should think about what it's been up to lately that would make its subscribers assume it's going to be mean and shitty.
Indicted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sues Biden for unconstitutionally signing a congressional spending bill passed by the US House and Senate. One of his gripes is about illegal immigration, so that's obvious.

Did Columbus kill so many Native Americans that it actually led to global cooling? Maybe! (Archeology) Which reminds me of a wonderful tour guide we had at the ruins in Tulum who gave us a very urbane and intelligent and ecoterrorist summation of how the Mayans had absolutely deforested the peninsula by ... living a completely subsistence lifestyle, so not sure exactly what he thought people should do to "not die."
