Didn’t know that about the keymap prompt, I can think of several things it would be useful for!

“It’s OK, he bought a ticket,” said trump.

Either that or they just didn’t want a woman or just didn’t want a Democrat.

It’s The Everglades Concentration Camp.

We should not call this what they want us to call it. Do Not Comply. Resist and speak the truth!

I hope we on Lemmy and elsewhere can start a trend of refusing to parrot their bullshit talking points and speak the Truth instead of spreading their propaganda for them.

I hate that the media and the public immediately parrots whatever 1984-speak terminology they roll out, letting them define the narrative and pacify people to accept their atrocities as normal.

(Likewise, it’s not the “big beautiful bill”, it’s the “Kill Americans to Pay Billionaires” bill. January 6 was not a “protest by patriots”, but an armed insurrection, etc. etc. etc.)

Isn’t that the time most people would think of testing it on themselves?

Yeah I use the hottest running water and also scrub it with soap to get as much as possible off.

I’ve also used a hair dryer to heat the bites up but you have to be careful not to hold it too close to the skin and burn yourself. I’m very reactive to bug bites and I seem to get a million bites within seconds of going outside.

I’m one of those who gave my bread maker away. The problem was when I was making bread with it, it was so good I’d quickly eat it all up and kept gaining weight, so I stopped using it.

I’ve tried (electrical tape) that but found it is gummy and leaves a sticky mess.

Ooh, good idea! I hate all those lights.

+1 for the Aeropress!

I’m an old lady but I also happen to use linux! You don’t have to be a tech neckbeard for that, just dislike Windows.

Murkowski’s reluctant “yes” vote underlines the fractures within the GOP over the bill’s $3.3 trillion price tag and its sweeping policy changes.

No, no it does not. What it underlines is the sure and certain collaboration and capitulation of the GOP to whatever the hell trump wants, guaranteed. Any whining and complaining about the harm the bill will do is strictly performative, nothing but the clapping flippers of barking seals that will ultimately do exactly what they’ve been told.

Murkowski accepted the bribe.

Yes but you see he complained about it first, so his constituents know he’s on their side, worthy of re-election. /s

(edit to add) I have to say, that’s an amazingly honest article for a major news corporation to publish. Excellent level of snark as well.

Was the U.S. space race a triumph of science — or a moral compromise rooted in Operation Paperclip?

“It looks like you’re trying to launch a spacecraft. Would you like help?”

When your muscles feel tight or tense, or a bit achy, you’ll automatically feel like stretching them.

Dairy, but not eggs. Sufferers can still eat chicken and fish.

I wonder if the tick bomb babies are less likely to transmit anything because they probably haven’t fed on anything yet? I would think they’d have to feed on a mammal to get the compound into their saliva.

😱 😱 😱 !

The syndrome is not caused by a pathogen but spurs an allergy to a sugar molecule found in mammals and an array of other things, from toothpaste to medical equipment.

Lone star ticks are aggressive and can speedily follow a human target if they detect them. “They will hunt you, they are like a cross between a lentil and a velociraptor,” said Sharon Pitcairn Forsyth, a conservationist who lives in the Washington DC area.

A particular horror is the prospect of brushing up against vegetation containing a massed ball of juvenile lone star ticks, know as a “tick bomb”, that can deliver thousands of tick bites. “They are so tiny you can’t see them but you have to take it seriously or you’ll never get them off you,” said Forsyth, who now carries around a lint roller to remove such clusters.
