Peeps. you may want to mute the stories about the head of the NRA.
Too many posts have basically said the same thing while putting the awful parts in front of my unconsenting eyes.
Suffice it to say that 1. it won't surprise you and 2. it will make you ill.

New US Dietary Guidelines are out. Over the years a panel of folks (including friends and colleagues) have worked on developing guidelines for USians: Are they ever 'perfect'? No. And I don't think they can be. But the current press releases show a disregard for the panel recommendations. 🧵
![Snippet from the 2025 report intended to support the US Dietary guidelines clearly indicating recommendations to increase intake of beans/legumes and reduce red meats: Highlighted text reads:
Emphasize Intakes of Beans, Peas, and Lentils and Reduce Intakes of Red and Processed Meats
[...]Systematic review evidence also
consistently indicated that dietary patterns with higher intakes of red and processed meats were related to detrimental health consequences, whereas dietary patterns with higher intakes of fish and seafood were
related to beneficial health outcomes [...]

I hate making non-cat posts. I hate "discourse". But the number of comments I've seen degrading and dehumanizing sex workers because of that Melania trailer is appalling. That ghoulish woman will never see your "whore" jokes but they absolutely contribute to the stigma that gets sex workers killed.

I was going to say it's time to go scorched earth on Disney+, but nah they're just going to scorch it for us. What an unfathomably bad idea.
Part of the deal is that Disney+ will allow users to watch Sora-generated videos. This means we'll be paying to watch AI slop?? 😭

There's a weird space when an artist you enjoyed dies, and you think that they're too young. And they were an age between you and your siblings. Then you really think they were indeed much too young.

My home is Portland, Oregon, ~1,000 miles from the nearest office, so this marks the end of the line for me at RS.
