Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on the shooting of Charlie Kirk:

"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

like so many products to come out of silicon valley in the last decade or so, AI is a legal innovation masquerading as a tech innovation. the legal theory seems to be that AI is entitled to everything but liable for nothing.

OK, but Mr President, how will you declassify documents if you fire all the librarians and archivists?

democrats will continue to lose and lose and lose forever because leftists being rude online is "radical violence" but starving thousands of women and children to death is "policy" and guess which one they're committed to condemning

"Hydrant system is dry" - LA County Fire, 6:59pm

NOTE: This was in request for assistance on Glenhaven Dr., so I'm guessing they're referring specifically to that area.

If You're Scared of Oysters, Maybe Blame Big Oil This feels like the beginning of a zombie story

Well apparently a bunch of people may have gotten food poisoning from oysters at an LA Times event.

I've gotten super into food safety issues so here are two articles, one about oysters and one about food poisoning.

people say “you have to judge slaveholders by the morality of their own time, no one knew it was wrong” and then you read about some Quaker named, like, Mr. End-Slavery-Now who was also a feminist and a vegetarian and advocated the overthrow of capitalism.

You morons, you can't repeat the Gilded Age. That's not how history works--it only goes in one direction. Now let me take a big sip of coffee and make sure no nihilistic young Italians have built homemade weapons with which to assassinate robber barons.

Don't reference Louis Pasteur when you talk about milk - he was all about the booze.

Franz von Soxhlet is the guy who developed pasteurization of dairy products.

Israel Accuses World Central Kitchen Worker of Role in Oct. 7 Attack The Israeli military said it killed the worker in a strike in Gaza on Saturday. “To the best of our knowledge, no WCK team members are affiliated with Hamas,” a spokeswoman for the aid group said.

Israel killed 3 World Central Kitchen workers today, after killing 7 of them in April.

In April they said it was an accident; this time they say 1 worker was Hamas-affiliated.

I wonder if Israel dislikes such a popular group persevering in Gaza.

It is legal to buy raw milk in every state except Hawai'i and Rhode Island.

Those that want to "legalize" raw milk: what legislative changes are you looking for?

Thank you very kindly!

"Legalizing" raw milk won't increase its consumption very much (this is not the kind of thing that scales up) so I'm mostly okay with legalizing it, except so many raw milk enthusiasts seem intent on feeding it to their babies.

WHY?

Also if you're going to de-fluoridate the water you better make dental care free for kids.

Bottled water companies are NOT required to disclose how much fluoride is in their water.

Municipalities ARE required to disclose this.

If RFK Jr changes his stance and says he wants to remove fluoride from ALL water, not just public water, then I'll believe he's in earnest.

House Ethics Panel Was Set to Vote to Release Report Critical of Matt Gaetz The committee has been investigating allegations that Mr. Gaetz, President-elect Donald J. Trump’s pick for attorney general, engaged in sexual misconduct and illicit drug use.

The Ethics Committee should've released its Matt Gaetz report the SECOND it heard about his AG nomination.

And now they're just sitting on it. What the hell is wrong with everyone.

The Problem with Raw Milk: It's Annoying I bought raw buffalo milk in a U-Haul in a Venice Beach gym parking lot on a Saturday at 7am. I’m not NOT part of this particular world

If federal law about raw milk retail sales changes, I wonder if there's a better solution than unfettered interstate commerce.

Maybe a "distance from dairy of origin" limitation? You'd really want to limit the potential points of failure for unpasteurized milk.
