We spent months and months figuring out how to connect generic drugs to the factories they were made in. A bunch of researchers asked us for our data, so we’re giving it away to everyone: www.propublica.org/article/rx-i...
ProPublica Publishes Unreleased Data on the Origins of Generic Prescription Drugs
The dataset powers our Rx Inspector tool, which lets you find the factories that made your generic drugs and their FDA inspection track records.

Good advice for anybody facing down this winter storm:
Flashlights (not candles). Smoke/carbon monoxide alarms. Knowing where the vents to your home are so you can clear them of snow. Do it all. We're being given so much time with this storm.

Call your reps. Let them know that if they vote for ICE funding, you will not vote for them ever again.

Representatives need to feel the heat. NO on ICE funding. No excuses.
So the House is going to vote TOMORROW on the DHS funding bill that includes funding for ICE.

There's a real chance we can get Dems to vote NO on any bill with ICE funding to sink it.

Once it goes to the Senate we likely lose this chance.

24 hours. Go.

I had meningitis in high school and was in a coma for several days. When I came back I had to relearn how to read fucking compound sentences bc my working memory was broken.

Vaccinate your fucking kids.
This is purpura fulminans, a severe complication of meningitis (which as of today is no longer on our universal vaccine schedule)

Micro clots & bleeding into the skin cause skin & tissue death. It’s more common in kids & associated with 20-70% mortality.

Those who survive often lose limbs.

Just to repeat a warning that others have already broadcast: Paypal are trying to trip people up and inadvertently snitch on both themselves and others by asking for "feedback".
As a rule, never provide unnecessary information to ANY platform. Leave fields blank or be vauge.

Heads up to artists and people who commission them

Paypal is doing that thing again where they try to destroy artists livlihoods by putting innocuous "feedback" review boxes when you complete an invoice

Do artists a favor and just leave it blank this is just a tactic to suss out NSFW creators

Don’t use Instacart
EXCLUSIVE: We found that Instacart is using AI algorithms to charge customers different prices for the same items.

It's not just online. It's in physical grocery stores too.

Our months-long investigation with @consumerreports.org and @groundwork.bsky.social found it could cost families $1200/year.

Folks, if you are hungry, please contact your local Sikh gurdwara. Or just show up for langar, which most gurdwaras do several times a week, for a free meal. Lots also do weekly or monthly drives giving out groceries.

No conversion necessary. Feeding anyone who is hungry is a key part of Sikhism.
A lady on TikTok has been calling churches pretending to be a mother with a baby who needs formula and several churches turned her away. But wouldn’t you know that when she called a Mosque (Islamic Center of Charlotte) they immediately said yes.

A moka pot is $15. Get fine ground coffee, gently pack the grounds into the filter, fill the bottom with water, screw on tight, and put on the stove.

While that's going, heat milk in the microwave then use a $10 frother on it.

Syrups are $5 for a giant bottle.

DO NOT CROSS THE PICKET LINE.

I propose November 1st as resurgence day. Halloween ends, and we all pick up the phones again. MasterCard and Visa, bare minimum, once per day. Every day. All of us. They are only hiring the usual number of holiday workers, this would frighten credit card companies. “It’s not going away”
A source familiar w/ internal workings at MasterCard notes the company does not plan to recruit additional call center workers for the Christmas season, as MasterCard does not expect higher call volume than usual. A resurgence of calls re censorship during the busy season would be huge strategically

Backed by the Heritage Foundation and Big Tech, KOSA will force everyone to upload their ID to access the internet. In an age when Palantir has direct ties to ICE, where technofascists are in power and want to eliminate and censor everything, we CANNOT allow KOSA to pass.

It NEEDS mass pushback.
🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

LEGALLY YOU SHOULD BE SENDING INVOICES FOR GOODS AND SERVICES. IF YOU TAKE COMMISSIONS ON PAYPAL DO NOT USE FRIENDS AND FAMILY. YOU ARE NOT SAFE, YOUR CLIENT IS NOT SAFE.

THIS IS A FORM OF TAX EVASION.

YOU SHOULD BE USING INVOICES.
Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions.

Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail.

Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos.

Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.
Sharing a helpful link, has other numbers and call scripts to use.
