On the link between UTIs and meat (esp. poultry):

Enough to make you go whole-food, plant-based, right : )
This is indirectly related to the above, about the spread of H5N1. Sadly, they want to develop vaccines so they can continue to cage the poultry in inhumane conditions (not against vaccines, but wouldn’t fixing the root problem be more intelligent?):

A Canadian looks at our CRT outrage and pegs it on a religious cause (my words): The (almost) worship of the constitution:

Makes sense to me.
I’ve read before about the historical background of regional differences in the US (although I haven’t read the book). He tackles gun violence this time around:

When I moved from MN to IN 20 years ago (I lived in IN for nine years before returning to MN), after living there about 6 months I really noticed the difference between libertarians in MN and IN. In MN, they have a strong social conscience and will back the common good in laws, even though it seems to be against a libertarian leaning—after all, MN had a (wrestling hero) libertarian governor who didn’t try to repeal any of it. And there is a strong corporate conscience here in MN with corporations dedicating 5–10 percent of their profits to charitable causes.
And, finally, Chris Gehrz had ChatGPT do his devotional on the Road to Emmaus (and then discusses what LLM really does):

I wonder what it would do if you asked it if the couple on the road were husband and wife as has lately been bandied about? Probably hallucinate a few references : )
That’s it. Thanks for reading and have a great week!
