For the past month, when I've gone looking for it, the cream brand I buy has been absent from the dairy section. It's the Whole Foods brand and I buy it because it has one other ingredient besides cream. Also, the only brand there is Horizon and the local milk producer. Anyone else seeing this. Could it have something to do with the avian flu? #Flu#H5N1
" Texas is among the two dozen states that do not allow citizen-initiated statewide ballot measures, something only the GOP-controlled Legislature could change. (Texas is) a state with one of the country’s strictest abortion bans, which has forced some 35,000 pregnant patients to travel to New Mexico, Colorado, and other states where the procedure remains legal.

"California prisons have faced an ongoing problem of sexual abuse and misconduct, with the the U.S. Justice Department announcing it had opened an investigation into allegations that correctional officers systematically sexually abused incarcerated women at two state-run California prisons. Earlier this year the federal Bureau of Prisons announced it will close a women’s prison in Northern California known as the 'rape club' " https://www.yahoo.com/news/wife-california-inmate-wins-5-233331156.html #Misogyny#SexualAssault#Men#Institutions
How is it that a Florida newspaper, in a state with Ron DeSantis is governor, is actually covering the political campaign better and more accurately than the New York Times? #Journalism#ReportingBias#NYTimes#OrlandoSentinal
This is why T**** cannot be in office- any office- again. Who will you believe, Donald T**** or the US Army? T**** or the FBI? T**** or the CIA? T**** or the Constitution. That last one was a false equivalency. I believe in the Constitution and hope that we as a country aspire to what it says, but I resent the H*** out of having to side with the oft corrupted FBI, CIA and military and T**** is to blame for that. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2024/sep/03/biden-harris-trump-campaign-election-updates #Trump#Corruption#Arlington#Project2025
"...(Trump) told Dasha Burns that he opposes Florida’s six-week abortion ban. This afternoon, Trump announced he will side with the antiabortion activists and vote against the amendment to the Florida constitution that would restore the rights that were in Roe v. Wade. Harris and Walz... have announced a national bus tour to highlight reproductive freedom. It will start in Palm Beach, Florida, where...the Mar-a-Lago property is located.

From "Zero Defects" to a choice between Boeing- too big to fail and failing anyway- Starliner and Space X, operated by a man bent on subverting the US government, NASA has really lost its way. It's a strong argument for nationalizing the space program. #NASA#SpaceX#Musk#Xitter#Tesla#Boeing
@BruceMirken@Wileymiller "W" should be outraged by Trump and endorsing Harris, but he's as much of a coward as those who have fallen in with T****. Dick Cheney has at least spoken out against him.
