If Lankford and others think like Trump, they are people I would not want as next door neighbors. Anyone wearing that badge of dishonor - a MAGA hat - would qualify. I would expect them to cheat other people in business, to disvalue the women in their lives, and slander people trying just to get their jobs done while Black. I am aware there are self haters in every social group. A MAGA community is by definition a dishonest one at the very least. "You are known by the company you keep."
When Fox News has more rigorous standards for it's employees than the executive branch of the government, with all the powers that go with that function, you know we are well and truly fucked.
"And then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning?

I usually try to avoid taking OTC meds (also meds in general) because years of health problems with oncologists and endocrinologists breathing down my neck have made me cautious.

Come get me RFK, ya dribbling fuck. I've had all my shots since I was a child, up to and including the anthrax vaccination, courtesy of Uncle Sam and the USAF.
Do you seriously think they would train thousands of aviators if the vaccine was going to kill or incapacitate them all? If I were you I would entertain finding out what happened to you as a baby that made you such a cretinous adult!
So one of the fun things about being married to an official old is the amount of medication going on. Neither hubs nor I have ever taken much, sometimes because we could not afford it (ok, most of the times) but since he retired and went on the 'care, his docs have been working over time to pill him the fuck out.
One of the important ones is not a pill, but a breathing thingy thing, that he needs to, you know, live (all of them are "so he can live" at this point, being poor gives you some city miles and then some). It is about a grand a pop. And that is just one of the 15 medications he is currently on.
guess you can say I am a bit worried about the killing medicare thing
I suspect you'll be OK. I think they're going to shaft those who have not yet come onto Medicare, Social Security; too many MAGAs are in the same boat as you.
Morning all! How’s your Tuesday? Since we’re not doing much for the holiday this year, I’m driving a friend to the airport this afternoon, then I’ll be house and dog sitting for her while she’s out of town. So I’ll probably be supplementing lizard and cat photos with some cute doggies.
They’re the most spoiled dogs in existence, so this should be fun. Their mother is retired, so they’re used to having their whims catered to. The little dog takes his breakfast (but only his breakfast) seated on the couch so he can watch the morning talk shows. No, I’m not joking.
Was just reading yesterday that there is a confirmed child case now.
I want to smack people so very much. We have regulations for a reason. Because people died. We have pasteurization for a reason. Because people died. All of this is because people died.
Now people are going to die again. Because feelings.
I'm seeing a youtube video I believe is an anti seed oil video and I'd watch it but I don't want to yuck up my youtube feed with a shit ton of maga nonsense.
Duck Duck Go's browser has a Duck player that basically severs all the tracking from YT when you watch something, if you ever want to watch without it going into your history and affecting your algorithm.
It should ask you any time you start a video on the YouTube page, unless you have it set to either never use it or to always use it. If you watch a video hosted on YT but from a different site it won't trigger it, I don't think.
OK, I just went to the page to read comments and it's filled with batshit insane people screaming about the evils of seed oil, "Give me butter or give me DEATH!11!"
It really depends on what the oil is made from. Some people do have sensitivity to corn for example. But unless you are drinking it by the glass, it is probably minimal.
I didn't think H5N1 was airborne yet. That's what I mean: if it's only spreading via drinking unpasteurized milk, then only idiots who deserve it will die from it (I'll reserve some sympathy for the children of fashy mothers who had no say in the matter, though).
oh no, there is a whole subset who wants it because it is "healthier" and not "engineered"
Sometimes they will also toss in that it "tastes better" which is a great reason to, you know, expose yourself to pathogens that could have been easily dealt with.
I don't remember now if I saw it here or on Bluesky or what, but I saw someone post a snippet of a video of some woman saying, "look, just heat your raw milk to XXX degrees for XX minutes and problem solved" and the someone replying, "congratulations, you just reinvented pasteurization."
I recall seeing a post on Facebook that took me, literally, about one minute to read. And one of the comments was "TL, DR." Yeah, some people are incredibly lazy.
Today they're supposed to install a panel in my apartment. It will let me control my door locks and thermostat, all of which are in the same room as the panel.
This one is more for you. You've seen my race car videos and how they're overlaid with information from the ECU and the AiM MXL2.
Well, the AiM has wifi, so I've been wondering if I can project that live to something like google glass so I can watch the track whilst still seeing RPM etc without even a glance down. As I get older the glance and refocus takes longer, although I'm still above average (across all ages) on it. I can still see changeup lights in peripheral, by design, but I wondered if I could get brake pressure and throttle percent on there.
I'm more a Luddite. I do not trust any of the manufacturers or developers or sellers or whatever of that Smart Tech, so aside from my phone, I don't got any.
If it gets chilly, I can nudge the needle, no worries
So basically, "How many people I follow linked to this article?" ... how do you think all those modern "journalists" get time to do goat yoga and drink half-caf lattes?
I find it funny that the same press who could not, for some reason, cover ANYTHING Biden has done in 4 years (except to wonder why people were not noticing what he has done, that was a special kick in the head) have all that time to cover every trump fart
we should still support it though, because there is like 2 people working for them that don't suck

Wonderful. Linking, of course, being the simplest and most common way to cite sources online. So we're deprioritizing being able to check someone's sources. Sounds about right.
At this point, do whatever you can, to try to have something there for people to work with in reminding others what we could have had, instead of the mess we will have.
As usual, all allegations made against Republicans are "baseless." These people are so good at making excuses for their abominable behavior.

That seems to be a part of narcissism that took me decades to figure out: they treat every brainfart like it's a flash of pure brilliance.

One more reason drinking raw milk is a bad idea.
https://arstechnica.com/health/2024/11/raw-milk-recalled-for-containing-bird-flu-virus-california-reports/
Here are some other things the brainworm said
As well as Uncle RoRo's searing response
https://youtu.be/oMY8LAnKBCY?si=SoLdEfcHGy1ZM8QL
Why is this still a thing that is legal to sell? Pasteurization is a thing for a reason people!
There are literally zero health benefits to drinking raw milk.
But there are a shit ton of risks.
You're drinking milk from a bovine. This is not set up for humans.
So we steal calves from cows and kill them for food and the mothers continue to make milk and then we drink it.
Good with cookies, apparently.
I say this as someone who drinks the stuff and likes it, and uses it for cooking, but that's the reality of the thing.
"Good with cookies, apparently."
💋💛💛💛
Here’s a fun fact. Worms can pass through the milk of mammals.
Ah ha!!! It all comes together now!
Be fair, who could have possibly forseen this?
Oh, what is that you say? Pasteurization came around precisely because this sort of thing? Well. That is just your opinion, man.
Frankly, there are a whole bunch of potential pandemics that are currently suppressed by modern science. RFK Jr. wants to "fix" all that.
Come get me RFK, ya dribbling fuck. I've had all my shots since I was a child, up to and including the anthrax vaccination, courtesy of Uncle Sam and the USAF.

Have him watch Morning Joe if he's in need of an emetic.
Does he howl at Morning Joe?
No, but if that’s what I have to watch, I might!
Put on cartoons and see if he notices. That is freaking hilarious.
Davis has said the threat of H5N1 avian flu virus spreading via raw milk consumption has "pandemic potential."

That one is the stupidest of all the stupid, and there is so much competition that it is really saying something.
Humans have been using seed oil since the glaciers retreated for cryin out loud.
OK, I just went to the page to read comments and it's filled with batshit insane people screaming about the evils of seed oil, "Give me butter or give me DEATH!11!"
It really depends on what the oil is made from. Some people do have sensitivity to corn for example. But unless you are drinking it by the glass, it is probably minimal.
The worst I can say about oils is to use the right oil for the right purpose and to watch your intake so you don't get fat, it's really pretty simple.
Regulations are usually written in blood...
ALL of them are. The hazwop guys do a great job of explaining this, with horrific images.
Maybe we should have made the entire nation take the 40
If it's stupid assholes who drink raw milk to own the libs, fuck 'em.
Yeah, but then they spread it.

The worst one I've heard of late from a MAGAT who said he loved the ACA but hated Obamacare, when told they were the same thing, spat out

I literally think the brain biology has been altered, when one has gotten to that point 😐
Raw milk?
H20, plus a little something else.
See? This is why we need to be allowed a slappin' fish.

Lionfish. You also need a slappin' fish glove. Safety first.
Those are kinda heavy - might strain a rotator cuff or something. No, a nice haddock or maybe a large trout would do nicely.

wonder why the press bothered with that "costly" bit.
Medicare covers a shitton of drugs, most all of which are "costly"
It's just to hint at why this is bad, actually, for those inclined to think anything Biden does is bad.

We told them last time. They didn't learn.

At some point, along with pointing out the pain they've caused themselves, we'll have to remind them of how things could be.
Also the Cybertruck Rule.

I'm sure DOGE with Vivek and Enlo will give that the serious consideration it requires.
