To graduating #UMD students: I invite you to reply with what you love about UMD in exactly 6 words, so I can share some responses with your family and guests during the commencement ceremony on May 24
@rollin_vip@senatorjain you cant punish people before they do the crime, so car chases that end injury and death will happen anyway even if we up the punishment. Unless you're some weird socialist telling me we need to "invest in social services and the community"
@Zuk_DC@joshjacobsondc you live a sad lonely life the way I always see you on here. I just know your life is consumed by online vitrole and it's affecting your personal life. Good thing you're terminally online, otherwise you'd be doing real damage to progressivism if you went outside. Stay insecure!
@arincallsout@RnaudBertrand does that change whether India should cut off water or not? paki kids should suffer because of their government? India should punish everyone even innocent people and commit war crime? You think too much of terrorists and not your own government, u & paki kids both deserve better
@arincallsout@RnaudBertrand do children live in Pakistan? if yes, then they will lose water. therefore India should not take water away from 250 million people.
@arincallsout@elydia351@RnaudBertrand your time spent on twitter is bad for your mental health, you are hateful for no reason. anyways then how come treaty that can't be broken was broken with no mention of terrorist and how come treaty is still not restored? you have blind faith in indian government while they steal
You can crash your yard's mosquito population without spraying a single chemical with a Mosquito Bucket of Doom.
Fill a 5-gallon bucket about two-thirds with water. Drop in a handful of grass clippings, leaves, or hay. Let it sit for a day, then drop in a Bti dunk (also called Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, sold at any hardware store as "mosquito dunks," about $10 for six).
Mosquitoes are powerfully attracted to fermenting water and will lay their eggs in your bucket. Bti is a naturally occurring soil bacterium that produces a toxin that kills mosquito, blackfly, and fungus gnat larvae only.
This method doesn't harm bees, butterflies, fireflies, fish, frogs, birds, pets, or people. BTI dunks are EPA-approved for organic use and safe in animal water troughs and birdbaths.
One dunk lasts about 30 days. Top off the water as it evaporates. Cover with 1/2-in Mesh Hardware Cloth to prevent animals from getting trapped and put the bucket somewhere shady where pets and kids won't get into it.
The bucket becomes a mosquito magnet and a dead end. Compare that to fogging the entire yard with pyrethroids, which kills every insect in it, including the predators that eat mosquitoes.
Doug Tallamy's Homegrown National Park has been running the "Mosquito Bucket Challenge" since 2021. The more buckets in a neighborhood, the bigger the dent. One bucket per yard is a great start.
@KeithJonesJr gross misrepresentation of what actually happened! Fire Watch is incredibly important and more than yelling fire, or we just let people die? This is how public services get cut instead of bloat like police budgets!
"To give you a sign of the desperate measures [Iran is] contemplating, the Wall Street Journal reported today that they're contemplating suicide dolphins, you know, dolphins equipped with mines to try to go after U.S. ships," @ksadjadpour says.
"That's not a that's not a measure which projects real strength."
As our local Sinclair channel and the Bezos WaPo Editorial Board do the bidding of corporate developers and landlords and run misleading stories to gut tenant protections, I'm grateful for *accurate* local reporting from Suzie Amanuel and @wcp:
