So glad someone tackled this one! For those of us who have been force fed 'think positive and it will fix everything', be real and grow from your experience. Then, you'll see that 'I got through that one, I can handle this too' on more and more, while smiling.
Is it making sense yet folks? Lets do the math.
Ticks don't fly, run, jump, etc...
In fact, they are very slow moving.
Yet they are invading everywhere...
The new dangerous ones, like LoneStar.
Pharma is working on vaccines. Any bets on whether it's testing is limited, pushed on the people, maybe another MRNA.
Gates and crew are heavily invested in bioengineered meats, to reduce the ridiculous carbon footprint from Cows...😞
People claim helicopters are dropping many in areas, boxes being left at farms.
Is it a conspiracy...
Is it real...
All I know, is anything EVERYONE in power tells us, believe the opposite.
Keep safe yall!
The reason we think dandelions are weeds is because of a 1950s marketing campaign.
Dandelions, native to Europe and Asia, were brought to North America in the 1600s by European colonists who grew them deliberately.
Every part is edible. The leaves are a salad green, the flowers were made into wine, and the roots were roasted as a coffee substitute and used medicinally for liver and kidney conditions for thousands of years. They were a kitchen-garden staple well into the 1800s.
The shift happened after World War II, when 2,4-D (originally developed for chemical warfare research) was approved as a residential herbicide. Companies like Scotts built the modern lawn-care industry around the idea that a perfect green lawn meant zero broadleaf plants.
Dandelions, being bright yellow and resistant to mowing, became a visible enemy, and the campaign worked. By the 1970s, "dandelion-free" was synonymous with "well-kept."
They aren't native, but they aren't doing significant ecological harm either. The herbicides used to kill them, on the other hand, kill bees, contaminate groundwater, and have been linked to non-Hodgkin lymphoma in humans.
If you hate dandelions, it's most likely due to a marketing campaign that ran before you were born.
@ReclaimD1 Muted ya for wasting our time. I don't want or need to see rambling garbage like this. It's as bad as posting part 1 of a video with nothing else.
@GigglingGanon As a former Uber driver in San Antonio, we were hearing stories almost every month about law enforcement charged with DUI. SA is a drinking city; all day, all night. There's an over-abundance of drivers waiting to safely transport them home too.
Let me save even more time and money, I have feeders on a chain where I can easily unhook to refill the feeder. On the link ABOVE the hook , glob the link with petroleum jelly. No ants in 5 years and haven't even changed the petroleum jelly. Time to apply, 2 seconds, cost less than a penny and has lasted 5 years and counting.
How do you keep ants out of your hummingbird feeders? The common solution is using ant moats. This guy makes his own using a basic used plastic bottle, copper wire and hot glue. Lucky for use he shares how he makes them in this video. Looks simple enough. Watch to see how. Would you try making your own at home or buy one in the store?
🚨BREAKING: There is NO water in The Rio Grande?!
I’m standing here in New Mexico and the river is completely DRY.
Nearby AI data centers are consuming massive amounts of water to keep their systems cool.
Meta’s Los Lunas facility alone has reportedly been tied to roughly 75 million gallons of water usage per year connected to Rio Grande resources and it’s only ONE of many projects expanding across the state.
People can argue over the exact numbers, but one thing is undeniable… these facilities require enormous amounts of water and there are more data centers across the country being built as we speak.
This is starting to look like an environmental disaster in plain sight.
We need to put pressure on local representatives and the President to examine this environmental crisis before it’s too late.
@gotrice2024 Stories like this is why I didn't move to Kodak TN which is pretty close to the Smoky Mountains. When I was looking for a place, that city came up and within a week I saw a similar video with creepy voices. I'm close enough to my mountains now, that's too close!
Most people just click “Accept” on every cookie banner without thinking twice. But according to this woman who works in data and privacy, that’s one of the quickest ways to give up more of your information than you probably want to.
She shared some simple but effective ways to protect yourself online, like using a browser that actually blocks tracking (Brave is one she recommends), regularly clearing your cookies and browsing history, and using a VPN set to a country with stronger privacy laws.
Other tips she gave include using burner emails when shopping online, being careful with Bluetooth prompts, and not giving apps full access to all your photos and videos when they ask.
I actually switched from Chrome to Brave a few years ago and I’m not looking back. It’s been one of the easier changes I’ve made, and I’ve noticed a difference.
A lot of this stuff is small, but when you put it together, it can make a real difference in how much of your data is being collected.
Do you already do any of these things, or do you have a privacy tip you can share?
This woman shares her experience with Walmart’s digital price tags and how they appear to be using something called dynamic pricing.
Dynamic pricing is when companies adjust prices in real time based on demand or other factors.
She found a pair of shoes marked down to just $3 on clearance. When she scanned the tag in the shoe aisle, it showed $3. But by the time she reached the register, the same shoes scanned for nearly $19. When she went back with a manager to check, the price seemed to change depending on where she was standing in the store.
It’s raising some questions about how transparent this kind of pricing really is — especially for people trying to stick to a budget.
Have you ever had a price change on you while shopping, either in-store or online?
@shipwreckshow I am so sorry for the loss of your buddy. I had my Roxy 15yrs and I lost her 3yrs ago tomorrow. I miss having a baby furface but I've been going thru a LOT of changes. Grieve, but a house is not a home w/o fur babies. They just want us to be happy, you'll be sad w/o a new friend.
