Q: Are you planning to do a federal takeover of DC soon since it looks like there will be a socialist mayor? TRUMP: *rants about reflecting pool*

If only institutions were willing to address this problem upfront when they were warned that this was a well funded and well coordinated disinformation campaign that would create lasting and devastating effects, including medical boards and organized medical bodies.

How these quacks are allowed to practice medicine is beyond me. At least their board certification was revoked. #MedSky

That's the outcome this sort of sentencing incentivizes, yes bsky.app/profile/alex...

MacFarlane: You have a smell that's emanating now that is reminiscent of a high school locker room. You have a police force and National Guard presence that is profound. It's like a jewel heist from the muppet caper is going to happen. It seems to be a misappropriation of resources.

This is a lot of words to say Trump lied and we quoted him, oopsie.

Virginia Citizens Defense League newsletter comes out against FLOCK Safety and calls for a ban in Chesterfield County of FLOCK cameras. VCDL is the largest advocate group for gun rights in Virginia.

I mean, how many hours do you have? oh wait you're talking about just soccer.

musk thinks he is more powerful than congress and he will be until they decide he isn’t, but once they decide he isn’t, that’s the ballgame for him

important to add in this context that musk is a federal contractor whose companies are existentially dependent on federal contracts and subsidies pursuant to congressional appropriations

Elon Musk is apparently going with "the Lancet study that proved I am responsible for the deaths of millions of children was concocted by the evil Jewish puppet master." Because Elon Musk is ideologically a neo-Nazi.

Rahman told me yes, it's hard to imagine DHS taking her complaint seriously as “we’re watching them unconstitutionally violate everybody’s rights.” But that doesn't mean you do nothing. "I think one way that our rights get eroded is when we give up on having them." www.huffpost.com/entry/aliya-...

I got a copy of the complaint Rahman filed today. It describes in horrific detail what she endured during her assault, her arrest and in the ICE detention center She was never charged with a crime, and now lives with PTSD + chronic pain from her encounters with fed officers.

This is Rahman's second federal complaint after her assault by ICE agents in January. And likely not the last. Federal agents ripped her out of her car, arrested her + left her unconscious on the floor in a cell in a detention center. Ignored her pleas for help. She thought she was going to die.

JUST IN: Aliya Rahman, the Minneapolis woman whose image went viral after ICE agents inexplicably dragged her out of her car on her way to a doctor’s appointment, just hit DHS with a federal complaint alleging its officers violated disability and human rights laws. www.huffpost.com/entry/aliya-...

Heat pumps are good but not going to help you this Thursday. Don’t let the weird morality around work and taking care of your body and home the “right” way endanger you now.

I think it’s important both to recognize that this is an emergency (so routine has to take a backseat to safety) and that this is going to become more and more common. Infrastructure doesn’t go up overnight, though, so do what you have to to stay safe now.

—of people who die during heat events do so at home. A large portion of those victims have an air conditioner, but did not turn it on. The energy bills are high, but no cost is greater than losing a life. Stay safe and careful, and when in doubt, rest.

Every year people die during heat events, often due to poor public education about health impacts. Heat isn’t just a little annoyance. It messes with your metabolism, your ability to process distress signals. Poor information about air conditioning kills, too. In the US, the majority—

That’s okay. Your body is coping as best it can. 19. If you can’t sleep due to heat, you still need to rest. Don’t get up and overexert yourself. 20. Your gym routine or running habit can wait. So can mowing your lawn. Do not try to do these things. 21. Heat is as dangerous as cold.

—consistent is important to processes that regulate your temperature. 17. Fans aimed over a bowl of ice can help bring your temperature down. Just remember that this has to do with the evaporation of sweat, not actually cooling the air. 18. You may feel tired during the day and alert at night.

15. Fans work by interacting with sweat. If you have a dog, fans do nothing for them. If you don’t produce sweat due to medical conditions, fans will be less effective. 16. Eat smaller snacks throughout the day instead of three meals. There’s a variety of reasons, but chiefly keeping blood sugar—

13. Avoid cooking, standing in front of the oven/stove whenever possible. It’s easy, especially when hungry, to overheat. 14. Many extremely common medications, like SSRIs, blood pressure medication, HRT, etc can make you more sensitive to heat. Look up your medications and take extra care.

11. Everyone gets exceptionally bitchy during extreme heat events. Recognizing that ahead of time will help you avoid getting into Situations. 12. The reason Americans joke “at least it’s a dry heat” is because humidity will fuck you up fast. You might not feel thirsty—drink anyway.

9. If you go swimming, recognize that natural water sources are still really cold, and that you can easily go into shock, especially if you’re going hot to cold in quick succession. 10. If you’re taking kids to splash pads, etc, do not neglect to pull them out of the sun every so often.

7. If your house is retaining too much heat, plan to be out during the day. Try to find somewhere with air con. Libraries, museums, churches, sometimes shopping centres, even driving around is better than broiling. 8. See item 1. This is not the time to be tough.

4. Cover any windows that get substantial sun. Even if you have to nail a blanket to the wall, this is going to be your best defense. 5. Freeze some water bottles. Not only good impromptu ice packs, but a good reminder to hydrate. 6. Drink water. Not coffee, tea, alcohol, lucozade.

2. You will be tempted to open the windows, since that’s your primary means of cooling. You don’t want to do that unless the air outside is cooler than the air inside. 3. When you do open windows, try to get cross ventilation. This pushes the stagnant air out.

Okay, UKsters, the media is useless re: extreme heat, so let’s do this. I’m from Southern California, spent the last ten years living outside Seattle, which has a similar climate to Scotland, where I am now. Here’s what I know. 1. Heat exhaustion and sickness are no fucking joke. Do not tempt them.

On Newsmax: "Every war scenario since 1979 has involved the Iranians closing the strait. And for one reason or another, this administration was not prepared for that.”

Justice Jackson flamed her conservative colleagues’ “misguided” decision to make it easier for border agents to detain green card holders returning to the country.

I resent how this administration makes me feel like a conspiracy theorist.

A U.S. Olympian says he was locked up for five hours and held “incommunicado” after he dared to touch the peeling paint in Donald Trump’s algae-infested Reflecting Pool.

Just sharing this again at a time of what's happening in Australia. In Event Horizon Sam Neill requested that the Australian flag on his character's uniform remove the Union Flag from the corner & for it to be replaced with the Aboriginal flag, the way he thought it should look in 2047

Write a story about, and show picture of, the vulnerable Parisians dying in their apartments from the extreme heat you cowards.

I am *never* going to get over the Court holding that targeted student loan forgiveness was a "major question" that Congress needed to weigh in on, but refusing to intervene to stop the dismantling of the entire cabinet agency overseeing the student loan program.

The mass shooter who murdered 23 people at an El Paso Walmart in 2019 was sentenced to 90 consecutive life terms. He was motivated by neo-nazi beliefs and primarily targeted Latinos. During trial, it was revealed the neo-nazi believed he was carrying out Trump's wishes as expressed by his rhetoric.

Jon Stewart was stunned by a surprising new figure in Trump’s algae-infested pool disaster.

We feared that Bill Pulte would do nothing but damage to our national security. And now that fear is realized, as he makes massive cuts to the counter-terrorism workforce. What could possibly go wrong? www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

He’s threatening to sue the media over pool coverage. What an unbelievable, petulant manchild. Everyone knew he was going to fuck up the reflecting pool. He fucked up the reflecting pool, and now he’s invented vandals (despite the fact that the pool is under 24/7 video surveillance) to blame.

“ I watched my baby take his first breath, and I watched my baby take his last breath,” Vellesiya Wiley said, eight days after a police officer shot and killed her 1-year-old son in her arms in Senatobia. The family is seeking an independent autopsy and demanding the release of video footage.
