Today’s word of the day is ‘football personified’ as go football as in Jim Harbaugh as in Michigan as in Los Angeles as in the NCAA as in the NFL. Jim Harbaugh is back in the NFL as the head coach of the Chargers. No more NCAA scandals. He leaves to join Justin Herbert in LA. The Milwaukee Bucks felt they had a sickness so they hired Doc Rivers. He’s back. From ESPN to Milwaukee. Giannis and Dame did it. But will it result in a ring? Review: Love Actually. A scandal has rocked Hockey Canada for years now and it’s now gotten worse. The NHL is involved. Canadian government is involved. And it’s all bad. Where is the commissioner? Oh, he’s releasing statements about Utah!

🛸 The Ayahuasca Era: How Neal Brennan Finally Found Joy (And God) | PTFO

For all of the Aaron Rodgers-ization of psychedelics, they remain revolutionary, and the co-creator of Chapelle’s Show turned standup comic has the ultimate endorsement: Sure, Amazonian plant tea might make you cry for two hours after drinking it with Chris Rock. But ayahuasca is a mental-health medicine that will also help you fall in love and, you know, feel the presence of God. So relax about the throwing up. Fear not the toad venom, and embrace the white void before the Big Bang. Ignore the football players yammering about “ego death,” and consider the possibilities of a road-to-Damascus experience. Or not.
