Wow. I’m just walking along when some random dickhead—never seen him before—gets right up in my face, a few feet away, and snaps a picture.

So I ask, straight up: “Did you just take my picture?”

He admits it, then launches into a speech about how I’m in a public place, how I’ve got no expectation of privacy, and how I should “know the law.”

So I ask him, “Okay, but why would you do that?”

Instead of answering, he bails. Walks off like a coward. Still yelling about “the law” while refusing to actually explain himself.

This morning I felt good about having the mobile vet give George his first “wellness visit” and mandatory FVRCP and rabies vaccines. Until about 10 minutes after she left, when George started vomiting violently, meowing piteously, and shitting on my bed. He was having a severe Vaccine Reaction (which is supposedly rare, lucky us) and had to immediately go to the U of I Vet Med animal hospital emergency room, where he was put in an oxygen cage and sedated. After 1.5 hours in the waiting room the doctor said she wanted to keep him a couple more hours for observation, but he was stable. At 2:30 pm I got to take him home, whereupon he immediately gave himself a splash bath in his water dish. I am supposed to give him more Benadryl tomorrow but his prognosis is good.
I didn’t tell the vet that I will never, ever get him vaccinated again.
Truly a terrifying day.

@Fullycaffeinated @ninapaleyIt's scary when you hear it happening to someone you know...these things always fall in the category of feeling like "this will never happen to me."

I've had 11 cats in my lifetime and so lucky haven't had a vaccination reaction, but at the same time I never really thought of it as a possibility before either.

It's just scary. My kittens are about 8 weeks old now. They're really small...I guess all I can do is watch them like a hawk!! Thanks for the support Caff.

@FemaleIsNotAFeeling ...until you realize what you are protecting them from by vaccinating them.

Rabies is a bad way to go, and cats can get into all kinds of weird stuff over a lifetime. Can you really be sure that they won't encounter something that could infect them? No, you probably can't.

Airstatus Fork Update: Clean table, output refreshes instead of lists, and color-coded battery levels/charging status. Airpods battery levels for Linux

Airpods Max output as table. Not charging.
Airpods Max output as table. Charging.

I do not claim this script. This was built off of Delphiki's fork of Faglo's original Airstatus. They did the complicated stuff. They're the real heroes. I'm just a UI/UX nerd. I like things to look nice.

Fork here: github.com/SleepyScribe/AirSta…

I've added a few changes to my Airstatus fork just for my peace of mind. The new output can be used as a tiling WM status monitor. I'm in the motions of diving into KDE JSON/XML/QML spaghetti to see if I can make a widget, but its not going well. However, you can still specify an output file that will update with the raw data in it's original, unaltered form. This should allow hoodoo programming wizards to hook up their own OS front ends for the data. I may see if I can make it so that the raw data clears the line before adding a new update, just because I can see the output file getting unwieldy after a while.

The new table will output battery levels from green-yellow-red depending on charge level. Caret and input are disabled while retaining the ability to break out with CTRL+C. Breakout is now clean with no text and clears terminal. This was to keep things as neat as possible if you should use it as a CLI monitor. Update interval is set to 4 seconds. Airpods and Airpods Pro should have columns for left/right/case. I can't test as I gave mine away to a friend.

Let me know if you have or see any issues, I'll try my best to address them. Font is Recursive NerdFont DuoTone if you're curious. Its a mono that changes to a casual style for bold and/or italic text. There's also normal sans and casual sans versions. Has ligatures.

FDA Warns Walmart Shoppers to Avoid Frozen Shrimp Over Radioactive Contamination

The FDA announced a recall of certain Great Value frozen shrimp products after detecting Cesium-137, a radioactive isotope. The contamination was first flagged by U.S. Customs at multiple ports before FDA testing confirmed the presence in one sample.

Okay, so try to follow me on this: Instead of Walmart doing a recall of their radioactive shrimp, why don't they just advertise it as being for people who want the super powers that eating it could give them.

Around 62% of managed colonies perished in a devastating wave of losses that swept across the US from June 2024 to January this year. In contrast, China saw a 25% increase on the last survey to a record 15 million colonies last year.

The US model relies on large-scale, clustered operations where single apiaries may contain thousands of colonies. China’s apiculture, however, is dominated by relatively small-scale farming and apiaries usually manage under 100 colonies.

Why are honeybees dying en masse in the United States but thriving in China?

With 62 per cent of American hives wiped out in 6 months last year, Chinese scientists are racing to improve anti-mite defences.

9th Circuit Court Overturns Radical DEI Biden Judge Trina Thompson's Ruling — Gives President Trump GREEN LIGHT to Strip Legal Status from 64,000 Migrants from Honduras, Nicaragua, and Nepal
thegatewaypundit.com/2025/08/9…
Well well well. L👀K at the 9th Circuit...
"Thompson also called President Trump a racist, pointing to a truthful statement he made in 2023 where he denounced criminal illegal aliens for “poisoning the blood of our country.” And she accused Trump and Noem without evidence of linking TPS recipients with criminal aliens.

“Color is neither a poison nor a crime,” Thompson said. “The freedom to live fearlessly, the opportunity of liberty, and the American dream. That is all Plaintiffs seek. Instead, they are told to atone for their race, leave because of their names, and purify their blood,” she added. “The Court disagrees.”
