Should go to bed. I bought a "Hand's Off" T-Shirt, but it won't arrive until Monday. Along with a compost bin, a new bag, and a light.
Some news?
* The Tariff thing resulted in Billionaires losing $208 Billion today because of the Tariffs, and Tech shareholders losing 3.5 trillion yesterday.
( excerpt )
The Biggest Billionaire lost 3.5 Trillion
( The Value of All S&P 500 Companies dropped 3.3 Trillion since Trump took office )
* The The US Dollar Has Lost It's Currency Value and is Diving
* Hip-Hop is Shaking Up Politics in Senegal
( Read more... )
* The US was forced to admit they deported the wrong guy to a harsh prison in El Salvadore.. But they say, they will do nothing to get him back. It's just his tough luck, and his wife and little kids' tough luck. Go HERE.
* The Wall Street Journal reports on the MAGA Backlash arriving...and that it may be shorter termed than it thought
( Read more... )
* NY Landmarks Lit Pink White and Blue for Transgender Day of Visibility
*A federal judge in Rhode Island froze a Trump administration plan to cut more than $11 billion in public health grants to state and local health departments that Congress allocated during the pandemic.
* Wealthy Americans have a death rates on par with poor Europeans. Some wealthy Europeans have death rates 35% lower than the richest Americans. The findings are a stark reminder that even the wealthiest Americans are not shielded from the systemic issues in the US contributing to lower life expectancy.
*Democratic senators call for privacy act reform in response to DOGE take over. As Elon Musk’s DOGE continues to slash through the federal government, Democrats in the US Senate are calling for an update to 1974 legislation to restrict government use of personal data and introduce new penalties, including prison time, for violations.
*If you find yourself in Reykjavik, you might want to go to the Icelandic Phallological Museum. Located in the city's Hafnartorg district, the museum can be found in a relatively modern-looking office block.
*The FDA has approved a new medication to treat uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women and girls aged 12 or older. It is the first in a new class of oral antibiotics approved for this condition in nearly 30 years. UTIs are common bladder infections and 30% may face recurring infections. Treating these recurrences can be challenging when standard antibiotics fail due to antibiotic resistance, highlighting the need for new treatment options. The drug, known as gepotidacin but sold under the name Blujepa, works in a unique way by blocking two key enzymes that bacteria need to grow and multiply. This dual-targeted action makes it harder for bacteria to develop resistance quickly, providing a promising option for treating infections that may no longer respond to standard antibiotics.
