Yesterday was the third time this year that an ad stating Chelsea Clinton lives in a beautiful Virginia home popped up on my laptop. My computer did not warn me this was a dangerous site, so this time, I clicked on the link.

History Facts lists eight names US parents no longer give their newborns, which you may no longer hear in Virginia. The girls' names are Doris, Gertrude, Mildred, and Judith. I know or have known women with all four names, but they are either baby boomers or boomer parents' ages and someone's grandma or great aunt.

	For his show “Hughmans,” New York sculptor Hugh Hayden has converted Lisson Gallery’s snazzy, pristine Chelsea space into a public restroom. Visitors circumambulate the gallery, opening gray stall doors and finding sculptures inside. The playful intervention offers rare moments of privacy in a bustling city—and thus encourages mischief in turn. As I spoke to the artist outside one of the stalls, we noticed that the door had been locked, and peeped two pairs of feet poking out underneath. Surely the duo could hear us discuss our desire to get inside, but did not unlock the door for another ten minutes...

The mantis shrimp is one tough customer.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.
