Federal district court judges are almost UNANIMOUSLY rejecting the government's new interpretation of a 1996 law to bar release from ICE detention to millions of people. Yet the Board of Immigration Appeals, fresh off a purge of Biden appointees, made it official precedent.

You cannot overdose on fentanyl by touching powder on a doorknob. Period.

But if you think you are overdosing, you should not drive your car…which you also shouldn’t do if you are having symptoms that are not consistent with fentanyl like this person did. “Responding to Narcan” is placebo effect.

Here's the story perpetuating the moral panic.

CHILLICOTHE, Ohio - A local woman said she narrowly escaped an attempted attack at a gas station after touching a door handle coated in what she believed was fentanyl, leading to her hospitalization for a suspected overdose from skin exposure. Jess Stonerock detailed the harrowing ordeal in a Facebook post Thursday, describing how she stopped at an Exxon station near the Chillicothe fairgrounds to use the restroom after picking up her sick child from a friend's house. "Once we got into Chillicothe I realized I had to use the restroom asap. So before turning on 207, I decided to just drive half a mile past to the Exxon station by the Chillicothe fairgrounds," Stonerock wrote. She noticed the station's lights were dimmed but assumed it was still open. After telling her son to lock the doors, she approached the building. "I tried to pull the door, no luck. But I felt 'dirt' on my hands after touching the handle, so I just brushed them off on my pants," she recounted. "My first thought was, 'maybe they have an outside restroom?'

About 10 minutes later, while driving down Route 207, Stonerock began experiencing severe symptoms. "Ten minutes down 207 I started getting hot. I thought it was just my fight or flight senses that had locked in, but I just kept getting hotter, and then dizzier and then I felt like I was gonna pass out right there," she said. She raced to Adena Hospital. ". ....drug tested by the doctor in the E.R. and was told fentanyl does not show on their test, only opioids, but he said since I responded so well to the narcan and had the exact symptoms, he was 90% positive it was a fentanyl overdose. Stonerock was hospitalized and treated with Narcan, sharing photos of her bloody nose, arm rash and other injuries from the episode. • "We are home now, terrified but okay physically. God had his hand on us for sure," she added. "Please be aware of your surroundings. I never thought this would happen to me but it did. It can happen to you too."

For the upteenth time — you are NOT having a fentanyl overdose if you feel hot, panicked, drive yourself to the hospital, receive naloxone while awake, get dizzy.

If she really felt like she was going to pass out while driving, it’s incredibly irresponsible to continue driving.

The mathematics of starvation: how Israel caused a famine in Gaza Israel controls the flow of food. It calculated how much Gaza needs – but data shows how this is being withheld The mathematics of famine are simple in Gaza. Palestinians cannot leave, war has ended farming and Israel has banned fishing, so practically every calorie its population eats must be brought in from outside. Israel knows how much food is needed. It has been calibrating hunger in Gaza for decades, initially calculating shipments to exert pressure while avoiding starvation. Continue reading...

ICE used your taxpayer dollars to trick out a bunch of trucks in new livery, all painted black with "ICE" and a logo printed in gold on the side (and Trump's name in gold on the back window), then shoot a rap video in DC to post on social media.

The pollinating mechanism in action

Numerous plants growing from the substrate, with a single, four-petal pink flower emerging from one of the stalks

My Stylidium debile, a (proto)carnivorous plant endemic to coastal Queensland and New South Wales, Australia. It's called 'fragile trigger plant' because the flowers smack insects to deposit pollen. The pollinating structure in this photo is at the 2:00 o'clock position of the flower.

Millions of people, many being children will die because of what Edward Corristine did at DOGE. I feel no sympathy at all for him.

My Pinguicula 'Razzberry Blonde' flower beginning to show its yellow and raspberry petals. This is about 4 cm / 1.5 in. tall. You can zoom in to see the mucilage that traps insects on the leaf surfaces. I was surprised to discover it on the flower stalk and bud as well.
