My sister gave birth to a red-haired daughter. But she and her husband are both dark-haired. No one in our family has red hair. My sister insists that her husband's great-grandfather was red-haired, and that's how it was passed down. Her husband didn't believe her, especially since she has this one red-haired colleague at work. Anyway, he insisted on a DNA test, which they did after huge fights and screaming matches. My sister threw the paper in his face. It showed 99.9% he's the father. But he still doesn't believe it, says the test could have been faked or someone paid off the lab. He wants to do another one at a different lab, but my sister is afraid this will definitely lead them to divorce He's not even talking to my sister right now. But he says it's better to find out the truth and live with a clear conscience. He doesn't want to raise someone else's child. I believe my sister 100%, but I have to admit the situation is pretty bizarre. Does anyone know anything about genetics?

"The longest lived people had high Cholesterol...I am a great defender of Cholesterol. It is a molecule of life." ~Dr Ben Bikman, PhD "Studies on longevity show that we need LDL to fight infections...it is an unsung hero of immunity." "The higher your LDL, the longer you live." Lowering LDL thru statin drugs has deadly & deleterious effects. For example, It has been documented that when LDL drops below 70 mg/dL, hemorrhagic strokes (brain bleeds) increase almost 3 fold. When total cholesterol is chemically lowered below 180 mg/dL the rate of cancer & dementia increases drastically. And when total cholesterol stays below 150, chronic illnesses like cancer & autoimmune diseases occur & cannot be healed nor put into remission. LDL is a transport molecule for cholesterol & is responsible for these key functions: 1) LDL maintains cell membrane structure & keeps electron flow stable. 2) It builds lipid rafts that organize cell signaling & redox balance. 3) LDL delivers fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E & K for critical functions. 4) It transports antioxidants like vitamin E to fight oxidative stress. 5) LDL supplies cholesterol to repair damaged tissues & membranes. 6) It provides raw material for making all steroid hormones. 7) LDL neutralizes bacterial toxins & supports innate immunity. 8) It helps structure water around membranes to maintain charge. 9) LDL buffers electromagnetic energy & supports cellular resilience. 10) It delivers energy-rich triglycerides to keep metabolism flexible.

@wholelife180 @Moonlight_myths My husband thought he was adopted because he was the only one with red hair in the family he knew. Then he met a second cousin with red hair and was quite relieved!

@Moonlight_myths Oh FFS. I’m a red head. No one on my entire family has or had red hair. NO ONE. I also look exactly like my Dad, minus the ginger. I’ve met sooooo many other red heads with no one else having red hair in their family. This guy sounds absolutely disgusting.

Hi @SenGillibrand No, women who take their spouse’s last name after marriage, do NOT change their BIRTH certificates. The marriage license is the legal document that recognizes the official name change. You’re a senator, shouldn’t you know that or were you lying? Birth certificate amendments are typically reserved for corrections (e.g., typos at birth), adoptions, or certain legal parentage changes—not routine marriage name changes. It denotes legal identifiers at BIRTH!

I seriously need some help here. My neighbor just put up this massive metal fence right along our property line and I’m honestly pretty upset about it. It completely changed the whole feel of my driveway and now it looks like I’m pulling into some kind of industrial corridor. I had no idea this was even happening until the thing was already built. It feels like my space just got boxed in overnight. What on earth can I do in a situation like this???

@SamaHoole Only 1-5% of statin users develop muscle pain Life expectancy gains in those who previously has cardiovascular events (heart attack or stroke) is 1 - 3 years In primary prevention it is indeed lower, but 4 days is just a made up number

Sama Hoole@SamaHoole·
The number people don't get told when they start a statin. The life expectancy gain from statins in primary prevention, averaged across the trial data, is three to four days. Not years. Days. Some analyses are slightly more generous: a few weeks. The muscle pain that makes exercise difficult, the fatigue, the cognitive fog, the new diabetes risk: these are the trade for three to four days at the end. Some people would make that trade. Most people, if told, would want to know before they started. Most people are not told.

As a developer, have you ever wondered: You type a 16‑digit card number and the form instantly says “Invalid card number”. There are billions of possible numbers. How the hell is that check that fast?

@leucocrystal Yet they won't deliver to a farm with a gate. No they can't or won't reach every home.

I really wish more Americans were aware that the USPS is the only service - the ONLY one - that can reach every home in the country. All other services rely on them for "last mile" deliveries that these other (more expensive!) services refuse (or can't) deliver to!
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS

The Postmaster General says USPS might be forced to stop deliveries in 2027 if current trends continue. Postmaster David Steiner says the postal service "will be out of cash in less than 12 months." Steiner has has also been on the board of directors of FedEx since 2009.

Something I've learned the hard way is that a 2x4 isn't actually 2 inches by 4 inches. It used to be, but not anymore because of course.

Liberals are blaming Trump for the redesigned dime—to mark the nation’s 250th anniversary—when the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee, which advises the Treasury Secretary, voted to approve the new design in October 2024. That's right...the designs were voted on and officially recommended in October of that year, BEFORE Trump won reelection. The 2026 Emerging Liberty Dime is a one-year-only US coin designed for the Semiquincentennial, and the left is upset that the reverse of the coin depicts a bald eagle clutching only arrows in its left talon, while its right one is empty. The coin bears dual dates of 1776 - 2026 and will temporarily replace the Roosevelt dime. The omission of the olive branch is a direct nod to the American Revolution, where colonists were still waiting for peace, according to design creator Eric David Custer. The eagle with arrows is historically significant, intended to represent the "fight for independence," and emphasizing strength, authority, and military resolve.

Sabrina the SALTy CPA@IraGilligan·
Does anyone else get asked to sign things at the doctor's office that aren't true? This is the second time. J is getting allergy shots, and the nurse says "I need you to sign this." I read it, and it says "I confirm we are leaving the premises despite being advised against doing so." I say "but we aren't leaving. You just told me we should wait here for 20 minutes, and we are." At the pediatrician: "we need you to sign this Good Faith Estimate. " Me: "I don't see the Estimate." Receptionist: "That is the Good Faith Estimate" Me: "... there is no number. If I sign this, you can charge whatever you want and I have to pay it. That seems contradictory to the purpose of GFE" Receptionist, now annoyed because how dare I read: "do what you want but they won't treat her if you don't sign and you'll pay a cancelation fee" How is this legal?

@IraGilligan Well at most of my doctors they put it on the screen in tiny print that I would strain to read if I were to read it so generally I scroll through like I do with software agreements and then e-sign.

Flying back from Naples on @SouthwestAir with twins and a toddler. We booked well in advance and chose our seats. SWA has—without notice—changed our seats. As a result, we are now separated on this flight. We already have to sit in separate rows with the twins, but we need to be in consecutive rows because we have ONE diaper bag with bottles, etc. I preferred open seating, but if SWA wants to force assigned seats, it can’t just move us around.

@derektmuller @ajzeigler I'd pay money to see that. My husband and I just spent approximately 24 hours over the course of five days getting all of our paperwork together for our CPA. And then the CPA will do however many hours. We are one wholly unremarkable couple.

I want to pitch a reality show where every member of Congress enters House/Senate at 9 am April 15 with only tax forms, a basic calculator, & a pencil. They must complete their taxes with no external assistance. Stream it until the last member finishes/collapses.
