Depends I guess where one is. Here in Nova Scotia they generally put on the shelf label where things are from. Florida oranges. California spinach.

Something close to three quarters of us are intentionally not buying American products where ever possible now and I expect this percentage to only grow as a host of deregulation and corruption-based labor, quality, and safety changes impact American food safety and the basic quality and safety of all their products.

Before someone comes back with, but they say they'll treat the water first, I would remind gentle reader that the companies who did the fracking treat the fracking chemicals they use as proprietary information they are not obligated to disclose, never mind whatever chemical cocktails their interactions with whatever was in situ create.

But they'll get it all with their water treatment. *wink*

🔥 Texas Governor signs law allowing fracking wastewater to be used to water crops.

That is utterly chopsicks up one's nostrils, underwear on one's head, insane.

⚠️ AVOID TEXAS-GROWN PRODUCE.

I think it's safe to say the Ukrainians have, out of necessity, rewritten the book on armed conflict.

For the price of a used car, a drone force can destroy hundreds of millions of dollars of expensive, difficult to manufacture military hardware.

I don't think that point has percolated through the popular consciousness as much as it ought, but as the expression goes, it is a game changer.

I wonder why there aren't a ton of drone-based assassinations and terrorist-type attacks all over the place?

They're effective, difficult to stop, really cheap to implement (for those on a budget) and it's not like there's a shortage of technically-inclined psychopathic nutbars out there.

There must be another limiting factor in play.

Frequency contention in urban environments? Something.

Still, there are plenty of rural targets of opportunity, not to mention using onboard GPS and autopilot.

Hitler needed to change his military's oaths from loyalty to the country to loyalty to Hitler personally.

It looks like Trump is not going to need to do that after all, as the military is signalling that it's good following illegal orders.

They'll swear to uphold the Constitution, but it is all just empty words and just means following orders.

There will never be a Nuremburg trial for them so they're good to go.

There is no authority on Earth who can judge the US. Only an Act of God can now.

'The Government of Saskatchewan is ending all of its policies implemented to counter tariffs placed on Canadian goods by the United States'

This is pathetic, #Saskatchewan. An unconditional surrender from Moe.

A black and white cat wearing a checkered scarf is holding a lit torch in its raised paw. The cat appears to be joyfully shouting with its mouth and eyes open wide. In the background, the White House is on fire with large flames visible against the night sky.

I mention this because that's something that's never changed in me.

It has cost me everything at times but I will stand by it.

When something is the truth, it is the truth.

Bad things deliberately engineered for us by Bad People are coming.

We will have to confront them and a number of unhappy truths about ourselves before any progress for us is even possible. This moment we're headed at top speed into utter disaster pretending unsustainable means profitably sustainable consequence-free.

When I was a kid I lived in a place where everybody, and I do mean everybody, pronounced the letter after G as "haytch" with a hard H at the start.

I said they were all wrong. Little kid me, knows better than every single authority figure, parent, bully, and teacher.

That's correct. I am right, you are all wrong. It's 'aytch'.

And I got beat up, gang-pummeled, the strap and every torment and punishment could be inflicted and stood my ground because I knew I was right. And I was.

Truth is.

The troops are justified because there is a rebellion in LA or the danger of it, said the US Dept of Justice today.

A rebellion.

It's unarmed protest in a handful of blocks in a city the size of a state.

In Republican world, that's a rebellion, and they need armed military to put the unarmed civilians down.

That ought to work out well. Show of strength, cracking heads, getting in some state sanctioned terrorism, arresting people for being there with troops.

Every Trump fantasy there, real.

Yeah, AI is fucking miraculous.

The advocacy group Reporters Without Borders said there have been at least 31 attacks on journalists — 27 from law enforcement — since the demonstrations started.
