Cooked or raw?

1: Grab a cotton bud/q-tip/small, soft paintbrush
2: Brush the pollen around onto the inside of the petals. Just a twirling motion inside the flowers will do. Think like a bee as you do it.

So, over in the astronomy world there is some consternation about a tweet from eminent satellite tracker Jonathan McDowell.

Apparently "Starlink Precipitation" is now a thing. And yes, you got that right, Starlink precipitation is pieces of Elon Musk's fucking internet satellites raining down from space.

"The Raw Milk Institute called the warnings "clearly fearmongering." The institute's founder told the LATimes his customers are specifically requesting raw milk from H5N1-infected cows."

This is an example of how minimizing COVID is destructive to public health far beyond COVID.

Source: https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/05/anti-pasteurization-crowd-reaffirms-love-of-raw-milk-despite-bird-flu-outbreak/

Yet, raw milk enthusiasts are undaunted by the heightened risk. The California-based Raw Milk Institute called the warnings "clearly fearmongering." The institute's founder, Mark McAfee, told the Los Angeles Times this weekend that his customers are, in fact, specifically requesting raw milk from H5N1-infected cows. According to McAfee, his customers believe, without evidence, that directly drinking high levels of the avian influenza virus will give them immunity to the deadly pathogen.

@luckytran

Some entrepreneur will falsely market raw milk as "H5N1 Infected!" to make sales.

People will drink it, not get H5N1 (obviously), claim that H5N1-infected milk is safe.

It appears that some universities are banning masks of any kind at sites where they are holding their graduation ceremony. This is ableist, exclusionary, and completely unacceptable.

But the sign says that signs are prohibited 🤔

To paraphrase Douglas Adams:

"Oh dear," says the sign, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic"

I had a job interview with Boeing today that I think went really well. I aced the handwriting portion of the application process, where they had me write a note saying that I am in a very dark place and just want my suffering to end some days. The interviewer was so impressed by my penmanship he even had me sign the note for him and asked to keep it.
