If the US economy is hurt people do stop going to bars, but it's still a weird thing for this article to include

That's the problem with platforms that offshoot for free speech reasons.

I want to be able to say eat the rich and luigi magione was right.

Others want to spout hate in all forms.

Then people begin to argue these are the save of you should tolerate intolerance. Which you should never do

I don't know, are we sure the Tesla didn't spontaneously combust? They're known to do that. Wouldn't want a manufacturing error pinned on an innocent person...

It will take the world a while to move away from the US. It's built itself as a relatively trusted, albeit flawed, nation to all the major western powers.

It's sad to see the destruction of my country's reputation, sadder to see 50% of the population take pride in it. I'd leave if I could

I saw a combination of TPD and State Troopers clearing out the very obvious gambling hall on the corner of Lake Bradford and Renfroe Valley St. They had a truck and we're loading up the machines. Couldn't find anything on the news about it yet, but I'll keep an eye out. I'm surprised the police let it operate for as long as they did.

Unrelated but I also saw a city bus had rear ended someone in front of the J. Edwin Larson Building on E. Gaines. No one was hurt, kinda funny

Edit: News article for gambling bust

I didn't say it was magic. Part of the issue is we don't know what modifications he made in making his artificial version. I won't pretend like there aren't a lot of unknowns there. It could alter the effectiveness in numerous ways.

Per the wikipedia page it states that it is not clear if it effective because they're not going to intentionally infect the children to test it. But we see the results specifically on the targeted gene. That's a success and demonstrates the technology works.

I'd argue the folly was inserting an artificial gene as opposed to the natural gene that we already know works. Either way the technology showed expression on the correct gene, that is a success.

We'd be having a better discourse on this if his results weren't banned from every journal and not studied.

By all accounts what he did worked. The potential to end HIV is huge. The amount of human suffering that could be reduced by rolling out what he did is very real.

The technology is here. It's better to strictly manage it for the public good than to lock it away.

I doubt the European Georgia is the one producing pecans. I can only speak for the state of Georgia, but pecans are a huge industry there. So I'd be willing to bet product of georgia = USA

When you're not growing seedling you could grow microgreens.

Honestly that space is big enough to grown some veggies in containers

This should have been fixed in the 1800s when Andrew Jackson defied the Supreme Court, but it was ignored and here we are

Does anyone know of any bluesky accounts that feature tallahassee news and communities?

I did a general search, but didn't find much.

Also any other alternative social media options for tallahassee would be cool if you know any.

What is your unconventional prep. Something that you think is uncommon or weird, but will always keep extras of?

Personally I've been really big on keeping canned pumpkin on hand. While it's not the most nutrient dense food around it has the most fiber out of any canned item I can find and adds a new taste to everything. Goes great in mashed potatoes and soup.

So far there are no plans for the community, but suggestions are welcome. I hope to run this page in an open door and welcoming manner.
