"A landmark new study shows COVID-19 isn’t ‘just a cold’: One infection left people with long-lasting immune damage, and those with heart disease lost up to 70% of key immune cells. Reinfections may worsen this. The message is clear: protecting ourselves still matters."

This is eugenics in decent tailoring.

What Kennedy has been pushing and Duffy here channels is the idea that poor health is a moral choice. Good people live the right way (getting their pull-ups in at Gate 17) and enjoy good health.

Lazy weak people don't, and get what's coming to them.

Monsters.
Duffy on what he's doing to improve the airport experience for travelers: "Maybe I want a workout area where people might get some blood flowing doing some pull ups or step ups in the airport."

Duffy just gets more and more incoherent. Yes, we totally want GYMS so we can SIT NEXT TO SWEATY PEOPLE on the too small seats in our DRESS CLOTHES you want us to wear!

Have you even ever SEEN a commercial airport you absolute cabbage?

Q: Is there an update on the 2024 DOT proposal to ban airlines from charging airlines for sitting together?

DUFFY: I don't have an update

ALSO DUFFY: But the airport will be a gym.

Didn’t Duffy also tell us we should be dressing nicely when traveling by air? So we’re all wearing our Sunday best and doing pull-ups?

These are not serious people.
Duffy: "My daughter pointed out a video from Dr. Paul Saladino where he was complaining that there are no pull up bars in airports, which prompted me to call Sec. Kennedy to give me Paul's number to start the conversation."

you must dress nicely in the airport but if you're sweaty and stink from a pre-flight workout, that's OK too, says Secretary of Road Rules Gym Duffy.

So I put duct tape on a ruler.

It worked.

This is orchestrated by a record breaking 500mb block, ~4 standard deviations from the mean. Shenanigans and tomfoolery will follow as brutal Arctic air plunges south through Canada invading the northern US this weekend

It’s so dry in the coop; I hit 27% humidity!

A standard good level is 40-60%, though 50-60 is ideal.

So, I started boiling a big pot of water to up the air’s moisture level (and to get a tasty bean, rice, carrot, & kale soup).

My beak was so dry I hovered over my soup bowl & fogged up my glasses!

This event is open to the public and free, but you have to sign up in advance (they ask for a business name/industry, you can put your name/Other).

🌀Peeps in the insurance industry will attend, so if you (or loved ones) need insurance in a hurricane-prone area, you may want to attend. #hurricanes

It appears that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has, within the past week, scrubbed a large amount of climate change content from its official website, as well as *removed human-caused warming* from the discussion on its "causes of climate change" page.

This is absolutely awful. This was one of the best resources for climate indicators data, and my go-to share for help answering public questions.

Luckily I captured some of them on my new U.S. climate page a few months ago: zacklabe.com/united-state...
Additionally, it appears that all of EPA's previously extensive "indicators of climate change" pages have been scrubbed entirely. The pages no longer exist; there are numerous dead links on the current/live EPA site, and no indication they have been moved to a new URL.

Dear God this is depressing—they’ve wiped out some climate change websites and are presenting misleading information on some remaining EPA web pages. Discussing this live (but it will be available on YouTube later for those who see this post later). www.youtube.com/live/FQqkkgg...
