You ever think that in the middle of an argument, Grace once reminded Rocky that from a physics point of view, gas is considered a fluid, so whenever he cycles ammonia through his vents, Rocky is technically leaking fluids everywhere, and how close do you think Rocky was to threatening to kill them both
In case anyone hasn't heard, the cyclospora outbreak affecting tons of people in the US right now is coming from Taylor Farms produce. Best to stay away from bagged lettuce and prepared salads completely right now, but especially the ones mentioned in the screenshot:
Taylor Farms
Earthbound Farms
Little Salad Bar (Aldi)
Marketside (Walmart)
Kroger House Brand
Target private label greens
Costco salads and greens etc
Trader Joe's chopped salad kits and fresh produce
Fast food: McDonalds, Taco Bell, (Yum! Brands), Chipotle, Subway, Pizza Hut, KFC, Olive Garden, Top Golf, Red Lobster, Burger King, etc.
This is not the first time I've heard about a Taylor Farms foodborne illness outbreak. I stopped eating their salads after reading a description of the conditions in their facilities. Doesn't sound like they've improved anything.
We need a fully funded and staffed FDA, and regulations with teeth - and that's exactly what we don't have under Trump. To make things worse, the CDC is no longer tracking these outbreaks. We're on our own.

I’m sorry Europeans but America is the culmination of the European project of colonization, enslavement and capitalism. This is your child not claiming them doesn’t make them not yours. America is merely an extension and a continuation of Europe on other shores, as is Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
You’ve been more than happy to align yourself with America for these very reasons. It’s profitable, your own colonial ventures may even get backed up militarily by America and you can still seem progressive in comparison while being an accomplice.
You can’t wash your hands of centuries of blood at the last minute when America is collapsing. “Oh we were never like that, that’s an American problem, we never colonized or enslaved or bombed, not us no no no” that won’t protect your nation’s governments from the future crimes against humanity tribunals sorry!
I was tagged by @corporatebanana! Thank you!
Not tagging anyone because I need to go cook dinner and I'm in a rush.
Sad Dag Hours under the cut.

It starts snowing again on the drive to Jan’s studio. Dag sighs. That means he’ll probably have to shovel again this afternoon or tomorrow. Tommy can shovel out the driveway, and will do it without complaint, but he always looks so fucking miserable the entire time, and Dag can’t stand it. No matter how long Tommy’s been in Sweden, he still hasn’t quite acclimated to the weather. Tommy also fucking hates driving in the snow, and Dag watches his hands flex on the steering wheel.
“Do you want to swap?” Dag asks.
“Maybe on the way back, if this keeps up,” Tommy says with a frown, before sighing dramatically. “We need to become snowbirds.”
“Hmmm, what’s that?” Dag reaches out and tugs lightly on one of Tommy’s curls.
“Old people that spend the winter in places with nice weather,” Tommy explains.
“Not old yet. We could go back to LA and drop in on your friend that’s renting,” Dag laughs. “Live in that little house in the back yard.”
“Casita,” Tommy corrects, just like he does every time.
Right now the casita is mostly filled with shit that Phorid likes to have on tour in North America, but that wasn’t worth trying to bring back: extra gear and Henrik’s tiny charcoal grill and probably some merch. It’s cheaper and more convenient than a storage unit.
“Or what about Spain?” Tommy continues, looking wistful.
“When I win the lottery I will take you wintering in Spain,” Dag promises, twisting that lock of Tommy’s hair around and around his finger. “As long as you make sure my back has enough sunblock.”
“I’ll get your shoulders too,” Tommy glances away from the road to grin at him. “And you gotta play to win, we should go back to Vegas.”
