One mom’s Facebook post has gone viral after she shared a permission slip she wrote in order for her sons to be able to climb trees. Julie Holcombe of Yardley, Pennsylvania, recently wrote on Facebook that her twin sixth-grade sons, Ryan and Patrick, were scolded by a man they didn’t know for climbing trees after school in a field between two of the neighborhood’s schools.

Hillary Clinton’s campaign gave Friday afternoon Twitter a gift today when the Democratic candidate tweeted a Venn Diagram-esque graphic on gun control. In the graphic, the 2016 front-runner’s campaign was trying to point out that both the majority of gun owners and the majority of Americans support universal background checks before gun purchases. The only problem was, as FiveThirtyEight’s Ben Casselman pointed out: Twitter users, likely happy for a distraction from the Friday afternoon doldrums, had a field day. Most of the mockery took the form of actual Venn Diagrams: Some made fun of Clinton’s graphic design team: Others mocked the candidate her…
