"US evacuates personnel from Middle East in sign of growing regional tension"

aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/12/u…

The pessimistic expectation here is that we're on the verge of witnessing a military aggression against #Iran. It's possible that the #US will task blood-thirsty #Israel with the offensive. This could spark a regional war. It could also be just a kind of aggressive posturing to get some concessions from Iran.

Studies raising safety concerns used forms of titanium dioxide not representative of the food-grade mineral

Studies raising safety concerns used forms of titanium dioxide not representative of the food-grade mineral

Why food-grade titanium dioxide is considered 100% safe

Food-grade titanium dioxide (E171) safe for use in food based on several key findings from its comprehensive safety reviews:

Extensive Review of Evidence: Reviews of both animal and human studies, as well as new scientific data, and found no evidence that dietary exposure to food-grade titanium dioxide poses a concern for human health.

Low Absorption: Studies show that after ingestion, absorption of food-grade titanium dioxide into the body is non-existent.

No Evidence of Harm in Animal Studies: Long-term animal studies, including lifetime feeding studies with very high concentrations of food-grade titanium dioxide, found no evidence of DNA damage, cancer, or other harmful effects such as toxicity to the reproductive, developmental, gastrointestinal, immune, or nervous systems.

NOTICE - Relevance of Study Materials: Studies raising safety concerns used forms of titanium dioxide not representative of the food-grade material (e.g., sonicated nanoparticles or materials dispersed in water rather than food), making their relevance to actual dietary exposure questionable.

Consistency with Other Regulators: This position aligns with other international agencies (outside the EU), which also found no safety concerns at current use levels.

Conclusion:
There is no evidence to suggest that dietary exposures to food-grade titanium dioxide are a concern for human health

Everything you hear is a lie in some form, but that should have been obvious from the fact that it came from the media.

It's pretty chill here. I live in a big city and there's very little crime by American standards. The cops don't let bums cause trouble. The cartels don't bother you if you don't bother them, so long as you don't live in some shithole village in the middle of nowhere. (You wouldn't live on the south side of Chicago either...)

Mostly people go to work, go to the market and drink caguamas (40's) with their friends. Everyone everywhere in all of history always thinks the economy is bad and prices are high, but things are going ok here. There are "help wanted" signs all over the place, and they list livable wages. Housing is cheap, if not luxurious, but better to live in a crappy house and have beer money than live in a fancy house and work 60 hours a week to keep above water. There are tons of laws, but nobody really cares, even the government enforcers, so in practice there is a lot more freedom than in the US; lots of normal people run a small business of some sort, and profitably, and without debt.

The most striking thing coming from the US is that the people are warm and nice and the streets and shopping districts aren't dead. You can just go hang out at the market or even at the taco stand on the corner and chat with people, for hours. I've even had strangers give me free beer while hanging out listening to live street music in the middle of the night on like a Tuesday.

Many thanks.

I grew up in southern California and can remember the border towns being like this. Even all the way down to Ensenada and Hussong's Bar.

It is good to get a local perspective. My experience here in the states since the lockdowns has been, it is no where near as dire as what I saw posted on social media.

I wish the best for Mexico and hope the Cartels are eliminated., as I hope the organized crime here is eliminated.

Organized crime here starts in our congress.

Brian Wilson died today.

So did a part of me.

Another root to my childhood has been ripped out. But I know this is not the last, all things must come to an end.

His music has had an enormous impact on me. From my first interest because the songs were fun, to where I am now marveling at his musical genius.

The following is one of my favorite songs. In 3 songs connected together, it spans the Beach Boy era

RIP Brian

this is just obviously true. the point is to put tons of donor money behind a liberal-coded agenda that tacitly rules out taxing the rich, attacking corporations, or building out the welfare state www.peoplespolicyproject.org/2025/06/09/a...
At the very least, the general orientation of Abundance — which is to de-emphasize redistributionism and anti-corporatism in favor of innovation and growth (“Abundance reorients politics around a fresh provocation: Can we solve our problems with supply?“) — has explosive growth potential in the precise channels it is targeting. A significant number of rich people, especially in the tech world, really do love to hear this and want to give money to it. A lot of moderate politicians really are looking for things that aren’t just about the welfare state or bashing business as they believe both things turn off key voters and also make it harder for them to raise campaign funds. And a lot of the popular media people they want to recruit live in high-cost cities where some of the Abundist themes around housing in particular are personally resonant.

I don't know why this is being so obfuscated.
