Maybe he thought it was real gold, which would’ve been safe?

I had the same reaction and I just poked at their YouTube channel. They have cameras for side, front and rear view, and they had a Sheriff check the entire build for safety and compliance. I’m not sure how safe it is overall, but it’s safer than it looks.

Apparently it’s on its way to an airshow in Oshkosh.

I found a NY Times article, which starts out:

A man who entered an M.R.I. room during a scan in Westbury, N.Y., on Wednesday was pulled into the machine by his chain necklace and was hospitalized in critical condition, the authorities said.

The man, who is 61, was wearing a “large metallic chain” around his neck when he entered the room at Nassau Open MRI around 4:34 p.m., according to the Nassau County Police Department, on Long Island. The man, whom the police did not name, did not have authorization to enter the room, the authorities said.

No one’s forcing them to do anything. They could refuse, change departments, get another job, etc.

Just curious: If you listen to the playlist, which one (or which combination) comes closest?

I’m envisioning this as a person with synesthesia, and sounds produce smells for them, and they’re searching for the elusive sound that produces petrichor.

“It’s broken and deviated from its original purpose, which is to temporarily help Americans in need,” Turner said. “HUD assistance is not supposed to be permanent.”

If you fuckers had kept the minimum wage in line with inflation, we wouldn’t have so many people on long-term assistance. Instead, you keep the minimum wage the same as it was 40(?) years ago, allow massive corporations to onboard people with the explicit instruction, “We’re not going to pay you enough, here’s how to apply for food stamps and other benefits”, then act surprised when people have to use public benefits to survive.

ICE ‘morale in crapper’ as agents forced to ‘arrest gardeners’

Like, no one’s forcing them to do anything. They could refuse orders, get a transfer, get another job, etc.

When I looked into it a couple weeks ago, most (?all) of Alberta infections were also among the unvaccinated Mennonites. In Texas and New Mexico, it spread between different unvaccinated Mennonite communities through meetings for worship and homeschooling, then spread fractionally among those who had contact with the infected Mennonite communities. I imagine the spread pattern is similar in Alberta and Ontario.

Their measles information page is here. The data seems complete, just not as nicely compiled as it used to be. [Their respiratory illnesses page is here.]

This was after he stole the trophy itself …

Going to the actual poll:

Two-thirds of Americans — including 82% of Democrats, 69% of Independents, and 50% of Republicans — think the government is currently covering up evidence it has about Epstein

Another YouGov survey conducted last week found that 40% of Americans — including 69% of Democrats but only 7% of Republicans — think that Trump was personally involved in crimes allegedly committed by Epstein

Tbf, Ron had a lot more leeway (and resources) with his family than Harry did.

It was interesting to me that there are more people (7000) in territorial prisons than in Indian Country (2000), though I guess that’s a reflection of how many have left the rez. I’d be curious about a state breakdown, per capita, of the local jails and state prisons.

It was an eleven hour video run at 101%, not just three minutes. You can read about it here.

Didn’t they find that the video was run at 1.01 speed, making it seem like there was more time missing than was actually missing?

I’ve never heard of yeast oil, but I just found this article on the climate impacts which maybe someone else who isn’t on the verge of sleep can summarize.

My main question regarding yeast oil is how quickly it goes off. Yeast itself goes off, and presumably yeast oil is a good habitat to breed yeast (which is most places in the environment), so, like, what’s the shelf life?

I’m on Android and turned off all Gemini features on my Google accounts. Now it refuses to let me do reverse image searches, claiming I “don’t own” the images I’m trying to reverse search. It looks like (I haven’t checked) they want me to upload the images to Drive and give Google permission to access everything again before they’ll agree to do a reverse image search for me.

Fortunately, there’s still TinEye and Yandex.

Much better when they have the little “vision impaired? click here!” button :(
