\*\* Statisticians (or anyone who knows about statistical analysis): HELP!  
What kind of snake? \*\*

Let’s see…within two standard deviations, and using a Gaussian distribution, I’d say there’s a 22% chance it’s a Burmese python, a 17% chance of being a puff adder, a 31% chance of being a water moccasin and a 25% chance it’s a crawling king snake. On the bright side, there’s a 4% chance it’s just a hypertrophic earthworm and 1% chance you imagined the whole thing. If you’re bitten 100 times and record the symptoms precisely, we can narrow the odds down considerably.

\*\* Toronto’s alleged crack smoking mayor. Why is he still in office?  
pregnancy \*\*

Yep, it’d be professional suicide to fire a pregnant _woman_, and that’s before you factor in the political fallout from transphobia. Crack allegations or not, no-one’s touching that.
