Because there are only about three or four food companies, I would avoid all iceberg lettuce for now.

What I would do instead is CLOSE THE WINDOWS, then get another box fan, and put a bowl of ice in front of it. That will cool things down in your place. It is much safer than keeping the windows open right now.

No one has been as vindicated as those of us who sounded the alarm early about the danger Trump posed to the US and the world.

Who up talking to the mold spores they keep telling me to bite people

Hahaha remember the cop bee video? lmao so good

The world is chaotic. The pillow is soft. I have chosen wisely. #cats #BlueskyCats #gato #CatsOfBluesky #Caturday

A quick word on Taco Bell: That's where we found the suspected lettuce, and it's not bc Taco Bell is gross. It's bc Taco Bell is REALLY GOOD at tracing product! Keeping track of exactly where they got their ingredients, & exactly what restaurants each shipment of ingredients went to!

Very similar where I am right now.

New: Late last night, Taylor Farms quietly posted an official recall notice We now know that the parasite-linked iceberg lettuce was shipped to Walmart & food distributors in 27 (!) states It was for some reason still being sent out up until Thursday July 16 www.consumerreports.org/health/food-...

Every day this guy does something like this and every day the same people who dress him up as a terrifying commie destroyer of civilization do a dozen things to sabotage the public good, to murder and destroy and hate and kill, and I can't anymore handle those who won't see the clear difference.

I'm watching this compilation of videos about a huge pool restoration project at the Mapperton Estate. Maybe there could be some useful information for fixing the Reflecting Pool. youtu.be/s4RxBnKrZMk?...

Goodemorning Gonzobongos! IT IS MY BIRRTDAY HABBY BIRRTDAY TO ME I AM NAOW 5 YEERS OLDE A REEL GROWED MANN !! !!!

Two weeks complete at new job. No longer having to pay $40 per week in gas to get to and from work is beneficial right now. I actually have a little bit of extra funds going into next week. Next Friday, I'll get my first paycheck from new job. And I need to do the insurance stuff too.

OH MY FUCK THEY ACTUALLY DID THAT

IMO every system of government is inherently complicated. The question is which format gives you the best ratio of "stable + free + majority-reflecting + minority-protecting" to complications A parliamentary US would likely have a big Nazi segment of the legislature. Still better than what we have

Yesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting. We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.

No one ever gets all excited about the lost secrets of Mayan concrete.... And yes, the Mayan cities did independently develop their own version of concrete that was very, very good.

WE HAD THE WHOLE PLANET DOING OPERATION PAPERCLIP ON THEMSELVES! FOR FREE! NOT EVEN FOR FREE, WE MADE THEM PAY US TO DO IT! “THANK YOU FOR STEALING OUR BEST CHILDREN, AMERICA”, THEY WERE SAYING, “CAN WE ALSO GIVE YOU MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BESIDES”! YOU! STUPID! BITCH!

When the federal agents implementing Trump’s mass deportation crusade mistreat, abuse, and fatally shoot residents and citizens of the US, the public deserves answers and accountability. That won’t come from an agency and an administration that routinely lies about these tragedies.

If you're in a region with smoky air, can't afford a HEPA air purifier, but do have a box fan & access to 1-to-5 furnace filters, you might want to make your own DIY air cleaner. The EPA has instructions on how to make a CR box & 2 simpler types, here: www.epa.gov/emergencies-...

I like that we're all learning geography together. Kind of.

to hear Trump tell it, American elections were completely corrupted while he was president and he was helpless to stop it, then they were cleaned up by Biden ahead of Trump's victory in 2024, and now that Trump is president again they are once again becoming third world caliber

I didn't know this was going to blow up, the above post now has more ❤️'s than Gary has Facebook followers, if you're on that platform go show him some love: www.facebook.com/1498857407/p...

a few good Jessica’s

thanks to whoever left this awesome giant sheep outside the museum! we're sure nothing bad is going to happen

In all seriousness, they've been doing this for years (remember Roger Stone saying that if Trump wasn't POTUS in 2016 there'd be a "bloodbath") and the real question is why officials refused to enforce accountability and still refuse to do so. But that requires having a memory and doing research.

Being outside sucks today. It reminds me of bowling alleys between 1995 and 2004. And one of my US Senators is trying to solve the problem by sanctioning Canada. That's not going to solve the problem of FIRES EVERYWHERE!

Uh USPS why is my package in Oregon? It spent a week 2 hours from my house. Now it's in Oregon? Why? Look I know it's from NASA but it doesn't need to take a trip across the US before it gets to me.

Just heard on tv that our elections are totally corrupt and unreliable. We have no choice but to start over and elect a new president

What's funny is that if there's any truth to his sweaty claims about democratic vulnerabilities, it's 100% to do with having an electoral college and insanely unequal representation in the Senate

There is no way that "278,000 noncitizens" are voting in US elections, as Trump claims in his speech. Its just not physically possible, as WIRED and other outlets have consistently reported. This is a scare tactic, and it's working. And the repercussions are endless:

If the election was really rigged against him, like Trump claims, then how did Republicans get to control all branches of government with him, a seditionist, 35 time convicted felon, a rapist and mentioned more times in the Epstein files than Epstein, as president, again, after being impeached twice

It'll likely blow up in his face as most things do.

cooked, low energy, things of that nature in all seriousness: I’m not going to say we aren’t in trouble because we are obviously in trouble but whining about the SAVE Act is not the act of someone with a coherent plan to steal the elections and when he tries it’s going to be a haphazard shitshow

Actor Sam Neill died from pneumonia and will be honored at a private family memorial at his New Zealand farm later, his agent told The Associated Press on Thursday. https://to.pbs.org/4fjVRCy

In a ruling yesterday, the AZ Court of Appeals said AI hallucinations are sanctionable offenses. That was a pro se man who didn't verify the citations in the brief an AI chatbot wrote for him. It's exponentially worse for federal prosecutors to be doing the same thing. azmirror.com/briefs/az-co...

As always: if there's any class of people who do not have due process rights, then *nobody* has due process rights, because the government can just claim someone is in that class and there's no process to establish otherwise.

WOW. The ex-wife of the ICE officer who shot a 26-year-old Colombian man in Maine has come forward to say that he had mental health issues and was abusive in their relationship. She says after the shooting he called asking her to vouch for him — instead, she went to the press.

Imagine if we made law enforcement a place where domestic abusers could not find work. Imagine how much safer we'd all be. Instead we've created a cultural institution that insulates abusers and ensures that even those not on the force are favored when their victims come forward.

a) ossoff's whole "bring it, dipshit" attitude is exactly the right response to trump's election shenanigans b) good lord has he ever leveled up as a political communicator, I continue to think he's a very serious 2028 contender if he wants it

As journalist Judy Pasternak wrote in her acclaimed 2010 exposé, “Yellow Dirt: A Poisoned Land and the Betrayal of the Navajos,” the highly-contaminated river water “burned the feet of a little boy who went wading. Sheep keeled over and died, and crops curdled along the banks.”

it's the biggest technological revolution of our lifetimes and you almost never hear about it (because it threatens to bankrupt many of the fossil fuel interests who currently run our society)

Christopher Nolan has done some of us a great service by making a movie that has become a heat sink for all the illiterate chud rage grifters who usually spend all day talking about videogame bustlines
