I was just wondering which chemical in it were unhealthy and why....if you know offhand, great...otherwise I am sure I can look it up.

There’s a few in there that are controversial. But you know how it goes. Some studies say bad…some say inconclusive. Some experts say bad…some say don’t worry. I’m an au naturel guy so I try to avoid most chemicals to begin with. There’s a lot we don’t know about the body and long term effects so I don’t normally like to be preaching too much. Everyone has to do their own research and make the best choices for themselves. MAHA and RFK can f off though.

Make America Healthy Again. Another dumb idea forwarded by our stupid admin. We should all get melanoma instead. 

You're dealing with pinheads dude. 

We have to be careful when writing/saying turn of phrase like that, because when dealing with narrow minded people, they always ...in fact, seldom ever do, get the nuance and humor, and think too literally like a robot:   oh, this person recommends a deadly disease over sun screen. 

yeah, in that simplistic interpretation ... you can see why they are polarizing. haha

Stupidity of that caliber is literally, not merely figuratively, an issue/problem in the masses - we've breached a critical dipshit threshold of bulk "density" ( pun intended-) where the denigration of 'public intellect' is also nearing state of inducing social collapse.  The expression of "weaponizing ignorance" ... it never really should be able to do so in the first place. 

We can get into why the epidemic of dumb fuck drooling nimrodery and cave-man fear -induced line toeing, and believing manipulation tactics because of that idiocracy we've found the U.S. in a state of... has seized control, but I think this run on sentence is plenty LOL

Kev has a pretty skirt he wears for me and I pitch a pants tent when I go to his place and see panty lines sitting underneath it.

This is actually just the busy stretch. I don’t have any tournaments between June 12 and August 5.

But when Kev's wife is around, some c*ck blocking develops around the Davis Straight...

Record low maxes for today…

ORH 46
BOS 47
PVD 48
PWM 48
BDL 49
BTV 49
CON 51

All except BTV occurred in 1909. 

Actual numbers

ORH 43R
CON 47R
BOS 48
PVD 48TR
BDL 49TR
PWM 49
BTV 53

As bad as that 43° was at ORH they pulled a b2b 41° and 42° 5/25-26 in 1967.

I would change "There's a lot we don't..."    in that bold to     "There is nothing we"   

I've come to the critical opinion that anything and everything that has not actually passed down through the crucible of biological evolution is interminably hostile to biological process - just because it passed some control groups in the 1960s for 20 minutes..., days, weeks, months or a few years?  The celerity of reaction, or lack therein, was an idiotic presumption of safeness.  

Of course ... tests were passed for the arriving industry to make billions of dollars...  

Proof, nano plastic particles ... chemically inert in a short T, but look out!  they've crossed the reproductive barriers and now, human ovaries and testicles are (gametes+polyethylene terephthalates) ...  weeeee     Meanwhile, global birthing rates are plummeting among societies that have benefited from the Industrial Bubble over the last 80 years - which is pretty much everyone at this point.  ahheh people think it's sociological but ....mmm no.  The mass population is not realistically that conscientious about sex and are still fucking.  Fact of the matter is, less conception is happening post orgasm.

Or how about the totally safe glyphosates - the weed control miracle for "Stepford" lawns.  Oh I'm sure they knew it was poisonous above some mouse-tested PPM.  They just didn't think about it in terms of decades, did they?

High fuckum Fructose corn syrup ... I cut everything out of my diet that has any simple carbs, including that piece of shit industrial goop, and I haven't had an aura-based migraine now in a year.  Suffered those motherfuckin headache type since 8 or 9 years of age... trying everything from hypnotism to diet and back?   Stopped industrial refined sugar.  Done.   Took 'till middle age suffering the Grain Industrial Complex' manipulating grip on culture - and I found that out by accident, too.  I had to cut out all simple carbs to correct a high A1C blood report, which scared the shit out of me because my mother died last year from complications from T2D.   My A1C plummeted. I lost 30 pounds.  Cured a life long affliction with aura migraines.  

All human industry is toxic given time.  That's my beef -

Nothing showing on USGS

[weatherwiz]

Nobody else felt anything? There was a very evident rumble with some shaking then the whole house creaked. My girlfriend was sleeping since she is pretty sick and it woke her up. 

[Typhoon Tip]

usgs has nothing...

Yeah and I don't really see anything on social media or anything. I wonder WTF that was.

maybe the house settling lol. 

There was no gust of wind or anything. I didn't feel any shaking but it went from dead silence to this audibly loud rumble and the house creaked simultaneously which sounded like it started with the walls and then with the roof/attic and different parts. Hole thing was maybe a 2 second ordeal. I checked around outside and didn't see anything that had fallen onto the house.

Probably was a small / localized event... I have experienced a couple of similar events across this part of Burlington that never registered anything on USGS...
