Slowed speech
This is pretty funny. Rob Beschizza, "Trump slowed 50%", BoingBoing 4/19/2016:
Everyone sounds drunk or stoned when slowed down 50%, but doing so to Trump reveals that his bizarre, digressive speech patterns are uncannily like a drunk sped up 200%.
So it seems appropriate to try the same trick on some other politicians.
Here's Bernie Sanders, from a segment of this town hall event:
| Slowed down by a factor of 2: | |
| Sped up by a factor of 2: | |
| The original: |
And Hillary Clinton, from this town hall event:
| SLowed down by a factor of 2: | |
| Sped up by a factor of 2: | |
| The original: |
And Ted Cruz, from this event:
| Slowed down by a factor of 2: | |
| Sped up by a factor of 2: | |

And, just to play completely fair, here's the author Rob Beschizza himself:

Czechia.
An Adam Taylor story in the Washington Post, to be filed under “About time!”:
Politicians in the Czech Republic are set to put decades of debate to an end this week by officially announcing a new name for the country: Czechia.
In a meeting with reporters this week, Foreign Minister Lubomir Zaoralek said he supported the move, suggesting that foreigners often mangled his country’s name when he met them abroad. “It is not good if a country does not have clearly defined symbols or if it even does not clearly say what its name is,” Zaoralek said, according to the Czech News Agency.
When the decision does go through, Czechia will officially become the conventional short-form name for the country, while the Czech Republic will remain the conventional long-form name.
As always, not everyone is happy (Karla Šlechtová, the minister of regional development, says the change will mean wasted funds in rebranding and the new name is too close to Chechnya), but I am. Thanks, Eric!
"The Old Man And The Sea, Featuring SHARKS" would've worked fine, honestly

Today's News:
Two days ago, I went downstairs to check on our crying toddler. Turns out she left a wooden toy on the bottom step. Long story short, fractured my fifth metatarsal. Readers should notice no difference, except for my planned 6 weeks of jokes focusing exclusively on metatarsals.
בפרסומות רבות, הגלידה המצולמת היא למעשה מחית תפוחי-אדמה.
