well...fuck
Jan. 27th, 2025 12:33 pmMajor tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas. I have some relatives that live in Kansas. (And I was born there, but my family left when I was still wee and tiny, so I don't personally feel any connection with the state.)
Avian flu is causing LOTS of poultry and duck farms to have to significantly cull, or in at least one case, totally destroy, their flocks.
And the CDC and all government agencies have been asked to stop telling the general populace any more information.
Oh, joy in the morning.
And yes, I'm in Mexico, not the US. But I still grieve for the US' descent into chaos. And...avian flu doesn't respect human conventions like international borders. Yes, I'm going to be able to get eggs and chicken for less than USians, until avian flu comes south to visit and wreak havoc.
Now it the time to form local networks for information. Now is also the time to start looking around for shelf-stable substitutes for milk and eggs, and if you easily can, it's time to start growing beans to harvest and eat as a reliable protein source.
But now, a palette cleanser. I've been following Sarper Duman on Patreon for several years now. He recently released some music through YouTube.
