Dear Democrats:

1 August 2024 - This is Why!

The Lever recently published an article, called 'The Toxic Harvest', which examines a new study, amongst others, about agricultural chemicals, basically pesticides (and herbicides), and how exposure to them may be as bad for a human as smoking in terms of health consequences.

Good morning Free Rangers.
Well I'm back from Lost Wages a bit lighter on coinage. Well, a little more than a bit. While I only lost $18 at the one armed bandits, we spent a lot on shows and entertainment.
We went to the Tournament of Kings show and had dinner sans utensils (we be Dragons) and the next night saw the show WOW, which was a good time.

I'm disgusted with Israel's genocidal, apartheid politics and Washington's unconditional support. Unlike a lot people online I actually participated in the anti-war protests.

It's difficult to keep up to date in the rapid news cycle these days....from assassination to withdrawals, congress cheering for genocide, Yemen and Israel trading attacks, the EU preventing peace in Ukraine as Ukraine targets EU members, Hungry and Slovakia... while China is uniting the Palestinians, and Russia is working toward peace between Syria and Türkiye. Whatta world. Round and round, faster and faster...
