“I planted sunflowers and vegetables outside my home. The city says it’s not mine.”
“It grew a few feet too close to the corner — so they tore out ALL of it.”
Taxpayer-funded crews sent to rip up a woman’s food over a few feet of dirt.
Second author listed on the paper:
"I'm Assistant Professor in the Department of Medical Ethics, Humanities, and Law at Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine (WMed). I'm also a Member (and former Chair) of the APA's Committee on LGBTQ People in the Profession. AOS: Ethics, Applied Ethics, Feminist Philosophy of Religion. Pronouns: they/them."
A peer-reviewed paper published last year in the journal Bioethics by two professors at Western Michigan University School of Medicine argues that it is "morally obligatory" to genetically engineer ticks to spread alpha-gal syndrome, a permanent condition that makes you violently allergic to red meat.
The paper is called "Beneficial Bloodsucking."
Their argument: if eating meat is morally wrong, then preventing the spread of a disease that forces people to stop eating meat is also morally wrong. Scientists should gene-edit lone star ticks to enhance their ability to carry alpha-gal syndrome and expand their range into urban environments to infect more people.
They call this a "moral bioenhancer." They frame releasing genetically modified disease-carrying ticks as a "vaccination" that only "infringes" on your bodily autonomy rather than "violating" it. The distinction, apparently, is that a tick bit you instead of a government official holding you down.
Alpha-gal syndrome is not mild. The CDC estimates up to 450,000 Americans are already affected. Cases have surged 100-fold in the last decade. Symptoms include anaphylaxis. There is no cure.
Alpha-gal cases are exploding across the United States. The lone star tick's range is expanding far beyond its historical territory. And two academics at a medical school published a paper arguing this is a good thing that should be accelerated.
At what point do we stop treating papers like this as fringe academic exercises and start asking whether anyone is already acting on them?
One tick bite made this man allergic to red meat.
Now over 450,000 Americans are allergic to beef & dairy and the number is rising.
What’s is going on?
Finalmente, aquí tienen el rostro del mal, miren esa cara de miedo. Alex Saab ya está en los Estados Unidos bajo el control de la DEA.
Este hombre hizo su fortuna vendiéndole comida vencida en cajas de cartón a la gente pobre de Venezuela.
El último escalón de la moral humana.
Juan Pablo Guanipa eres un TRAIDOR MAL AGRADECIDO, fue el presidente Trump quien te sacó de la cárcel y quien arriesgó a sus militares el 3 de enero. Es Trump quien le está dando esperanza a Venezuela 🇻🇪🇺🇸. Por eso los venezolanos están prefiriendo en masa la idea del Estado #51.
@WallStreetApes Vivir en un protectorado es difícil, así ganes el triple, harán lo posible por aumentar inflar los precios y hacerte vivir como miserable. Legalmente está Protegidos de la competencia abierta.
Lo irónico también es lo cara que es la salud en EE.UU y no le pagan bien.
This American works full time in the operating room at a hospital and just got off a 12 hour shift
It’s after midnight and she must now go drive DoorDash after being on her feet for 12 hours because the cost of living is so high in America
“I work in the operating room and I just worked a 12-hour shift in the operating room and I cannot afford my rent. I can't afford my rent. I can't afford gas. I can't afford groceries. I can't afford any of my endless other bills that I am responsible for because I am an adult.
After working a 12-hour shift in the operating room. So you know what I have to do? I have to DoorDash, and it's 12: 30 at night after I've been on my feet in the operating room for 12 hours all f*cking day. I'm now out DoorDash driving”
I’ll never shop sharing these stories because we must ALL advocate for a drastically lower cost of living
We cannot accept this is the way things are. We cannot accept this is the direction we’re going and things will just keep getting more expensive

🚨🇫🇷 ATERRADOR:
Un tribunal francés dictamina que Ousmane Diallo, un migrante senegalés de 67 años, no puede ser considerado penalmente responsable del asesinato de Théo, de 18 años.
Ousmane se puso furioso en una tienda de teléfonos móviles después de que le dijeran que tendría que pagar € 93 por las llamadas realizadas a Senegal.
Apuñaló a Théo en el pecho durante uno de sus primeros días de trabajo.
El tribunal dictaminó que Ousmane padece una enfermedad mental y será enviado a un hospital psiquiátrico hasta que se recupere.
Terroranschlag in Italien, #Modena.
Der Täter: ein marokkanischer Terrorist namens Salim El Koudri.
Er fuhr absichtlich mit seinem Auto in eine Menschenmenge im Stadtzentrum, stieg anschließend aus und erstach einen Mann, der versuchte, ihn aufzuhalten.
Man ist wirklich nirgendwo mehr sicher.
Allen Verletzten wünsche ich eine schnelle und gute Genesung.
@jorgerpsuv Jaja recuerdo que mi iste cielo y tierra para devolverlo.
Fue muy inteligente, Pero dejaste a los gringos como idiotas y eso ellos no lo perdonan.
Parece que saliste barato más bien.
@al_yulduz@mdzol Soy economista y es verdad. El primer afectado con las medidas económicas siempre es la gente.
Nunca van por sus oligarcas y menos por los sueldos de los políticos.
Lo peor es que con todo y eso la economía no mejora, el dinero no llega..
@mdzol Se llama destrucción del mercado interno, y lo hicieron a propósito para secar la plaza de pesos, y además sabían que la gente quedaría así como esta chica , en banda , pero no les importó, encima el caradura de Milei dijo “ Algo hará la gente para no morir de hambre “ les 🧵
"Estoy desesperada, ya no sé qué hacer. Hace ocho años hago alisados, siempre me fue muy bien, pero ahora el trabajo bajó un montón, no tengo turnos agendados y ya no puedo pagar el alquiler. Tengo ataques de pánico, no como y duermo temblando": la confesión de una tiktoker.
My friend sent me this video. I know for some people it may be nothing, but this is what it looks like when you import people from third-world countries.
These are the steps of the largest public library in Yonkers, the third-largest city in New York State.
The guy ate food from a food truck and then just tossed all the remaining food and the container right onto the sidewalk.
These people will never share the values and culture of Western countries. They fled their shithole countries just to turn America into the same.
I know someone will say, “But Americans do the same.” Yeah, they do. So if we already have a lot of filthy people here, why the hell should we import more?
