Ha, kind of a “quiet quitting!”

Don’tcha know, if you buy Apple products and support Apple with your money, that means that you “Think Different”. Yeah, you’re brilliant, a creator, you don’t run with the crowd, and you’re a traitor.

I’ve never understood the Apple Cult, and I understand it even less as its members choose to look the other way when the company does this kind of thing.

What’s all this about buying now and paying later?

Don’t do that.

I haven’t given a thought to my “credit score” in decades. I hope that means that it’s tanked due to the unimaginable, unearthly, inhuman crime of not routinely borrowing money.

“smash”! Ooh ooh, exciting word, boom boom bang must clicky!

TACO time again.

So what’s he looking for, some kind of DEI preferences from the SBA?

What a clickbait piece.

“the pest control guy leading the charge” is the main figure in the article about alleged “pests”. I wonder what he thinks about them? Oh, what do you know, he has nothing good to say about the critter, who’d have thought?

The school system guy is quoted as saying the squirrel issue has been “a continuous battle for them for the last 75 years.” So this has been going on for (human) generations and is just a part of life in that region. Nothing new except the clickbait.

“Minot Air Force Base, which houses bombers and intercontinental ballistic missiles” is in their backyard and if the article is to be believed, the citizenry is focused on the risks and evils of a native squirrel. If so I’d say it’s the citizenry that has their heads in the sand.

And it’s one of the few semi-affordable regions left in the state so it’s growing rapidly, leading to a serious housing shortage. Construction and renovation are other industries that hire a lot of immigrants.

Desperate laborers, and, I’m guessing, no union troubles.

Suicides, every one of them.

And those countries won’t accept you if they think you might be a “burden” on their social services budget/infrastructure. Young, in the prime of career, in-demand skills, maybe a job offer, or just filthy rich? OK, maybe you can get in. Maybe. But if you’re older or just a regular schmuck without any family in those countries to depend on, then probably not.

Ah, I see. Well looky here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_Interferometer_Space_Antenna Notice how They’re trying to cover up the purpose of the lasers with some kind of scientific hoohaw, and not a word about how they’ll be controlled by The Jews.

Good point. I heard somewhere they’re going to spend like $150B on ice too. They’re definitely up to something - that would be enough ice for every glass and cooler in America. Maybe they’ll spread chemtrail ice for the radar to interact with?

And somehow our phones are part of the System. I assume there’s an app for that, something that lets me dial in whatever wx I want, for anywhere, anytime. What’s it called? Goddamn, another $ubscription I bet.

Michael Lewis Arthur Meyer, the founder of Veterans On Patrol, told the station he posted a sign warning of other radars being targeted near weather radar. He said he believes the government is modifying the weather, according to the article.

“They can embed their technology and civilian infrastructure in every home and every household utilizing the phones and their network towers to not only control the weather, modify the weather, but they can (target) individuals,” Meyer said in the article.

Control the weather. Target individuals. How can anyone get this stupid?

This is the first “mugshot” I’ve seen of the perp.

She killed one of her kids (and would have killed a second) to get a friggin’ anus on her face.

I hope a decent caregiver can be found for the surviving kid. That is, if he’s not brain-damaged from the heat and doesn’t have to be institutionalized for the rest of his life.

This sounds almost identical to the PFAS problem west of Spokane WA.

https://westplainswater.org/

The so-called “West Plains” area is home to both the Spokane airport (GEG) and Fairchild Air Force Base. The latter is a huge refueling base with tankers flying in/out all the time. It’s surrounded by a lot of cropland and has one of those common “military towns” adjacent to it - the city of “Airway Heights”. Trump 2024 signs everywhere.

From what I understand, the problem originates from PFAS chemicals used in the base’s firefighting operations. I’ve been told by an employee of the local power company that the base has all of its water pumped uphill from the Spokane river now. I don’t know what Airway Heights or surrounding residents do … maybe they just drink bottled water and avoid bathing.

They usually don’t even say it will put them out of business. They say something like “not polluting the groundwater with toxic wastes would place an undue burden on our industry”. Which translates to “we won’t maximize our profits”. And the brainwashed among us think “oh yeah, I get it, they are required by law to maximize corpo profits on behalf of shareholders” (not true) “so of course they have to be allowed to {pollute, enslave, hire children, provide unsafe working conditions, lie, misrepresent, not clean up up after themselves (uncapped oil/gas wells, nuclear waste, mines leaching chemicals, “superfund” (public $) cleanup sites, etc} or the poor dears might be in big trouble all because of us Poors”.

the New York Farm Bureau (NYFB), the state’s largest agricultural industry lobbying group

“It must be mentioned that many agricultural workers come from very weather countries (sic), via the federal H2A program, such as Mexico and Jamaica, and working (sic) and would feel very comfortable working in New York in the summertime,” the memo stated.

“very weather countries”. These lobbyist scum have sub-zero IQs apparently.

The NYFB’s claims are nothing new. Pseudoscientific theories about non-white laborers’ ability to withstand extreme heat date back centuries. In 1851, Samuel Cartwright, a Louisiana physician, justified the enslavement of Africans in a letter to U.S. Secretary of State Daniel Webster, claiming that white people are naturally unsuited to work on hot cotton and sugar plantations but for the enslaved Africans the work “proves to be only a wholesome and beneficial exercise to the negro.”

Chinese laborers in Hawaii sugarcane fields were also viewed as being more adaptable to the harsh climate than white laborers. Japanese fruit pickers in California were believed to “endure the heat found in a few localities better than most other races.” Mexican laborers who worked in the smoldering Pennsylvania steel mills in the 1920s were also believed to “endure heat well.”

I think that wealthy white corporate management and its lobbyist flunkies would endure jobs in arctic gulags much better than anyone else. Efficiency is the name of the game, and there’s already a big federal domestic terrorist-military org that can help these people get up there to the northern wastes, an org, appropriately enough, named after frozen water.

Me, no. Corpo Amerika absolutely if it’s profitable and low-risk. So which Lemmy “community” is the one where these corps are being ID’d (with all crowdsourced supporting evidence) and named and shamed?
