"The state’s way of managing #trans #healthcare – indeed, of responding to trans people’s very existence – is violence. This violence manifests in myriad ways: the indifferent denial of life-saving healthcare, the aggressive suppression of trans protest, and the brutal policing of trans lives."

Hoping other states with #H5N1 #birdflu infections in dairy cows can follow Michigan's lead here.
Figuring out if there are more human infections occurring and what activities pose the most risk if there are would be a very good thing. https://www.statnews.com/2024/06/25/bird-flu-michigan-serology-study/

Enough with the earthquakes, am trying to deal with newly diagnosed hyperthyroidism and don’t need these alarms going off.

It was the wettest July on record for both the Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland.

The difference?

For Northern Ireland, the records start in 1836. For the Republic of Ireland, they only start in 1940.

Why?

It’s thanks to 16,000 volunteers who transcribed 5 million lost rainfall observations in the #RainfallRescue project!

UK's rainfall records rescued by volunteer army

We now have a clearer idea of when these islands were sodden or parched going back almost 200 years.

The interior angle of the pizza slice emoji in the Apple emoji set 🍕is 48.5556º, implying that the pizza was cut into a very awkward 7.4 slices. (Or that somewhere there exists another 48º slice and two corresponding 41.4444º slices)
