Today's The Day We All Guffaw At An NPR Headline.
Happiest of Tuesdays, mein liebchens! If you had a long weekend, I do hope it was enjoyable. And if you didn’t, I hope yesterday was slow but pleasantly productive. Sigh. Sometimes with these intros, I have to tamp down the anxiety in my head that is yelling at me to make this the cleverest, or at least link to something charming, but instead all I want to do is let y’all know I’m thinking about you, and that I hope you got enough sleep last night. Don’t forget to drink water today! Deep breathing is helpful! Have you gone for a walk recently? You’ve got this!
TO THE INTERNET!
I guess that the massive ad buy on Criminal Minds is paying off? Michael Bloomberg Surges in Poll and Qualifies for Democratic Debate in Las Vegas.

Sigh.
Yikes: Apple announced it will not meet revenue guidance due to the Coronavirus.
Today, in GOOD (FYI, autoplay on the page): Bikram yoga founder Bikram Choudhury trapped in Mexico after passport seized; fleet of CA cars to be auctioned.

And finally, I promise this is a SFW, I promise: As Warm Winters Mess With Nut Trees' Sex Lives, Farmers Help Them 'Netflix And Chill' (NPR, what are you doing, trying to get this Missive caught in work spam filters? FOR SHAME also LOL.)
By the way, in addition to having a far superior CMS and a stupidly easy-to-use interface, Substack does a great job of presenting thumbnails in these here emails once published and shared on the socials, which means I am doing my best to make sure I ALWAYS include and image or a gif. So here you are:
That’s it, that’s all! Have a wonderful day, and be kind to each other, won’t you?
