Saidu, whose job is to empty sceptic tanks, is believed to have been selling the faeces to farmers to use as fertiliser - a common practice in the region, but which is rarely publicly acknowledged.

I’ve always heard this is how E. coli spreads on produce

When a bisexual and a pansexual love each other very much… they grow together :)

I’m gonna have to watch Repo! this weekend. Rip legend

Only federally. State filling isn’t free

My income is disability, and falls below the poverty line so I don’t technically need to file. I like to file just to make sure i have a record, but damn all the free programs were trying to make me pay out of pocket to file in my state. I’m sure most people are happy to spare the $35 or so for the ease of using software, but not having money at all makes the cost seem absurd. And there’s no reason for these companies to care that I can’t afford it, considering people going to pay that cost because for most the penalty of not filling taxes is much, much higher than the cut those programs take.

I love that people can make art out of stupid comments by politicians

Just keep the treated clothes away from cats, it’s toxic to them even when dry

They aren’t calling you a troll, they’re offering a reason that Lemmy.world doesn’t allow VPNs

Stir plates use magnets and magnetic stir bars, and can be used without heat

As far as I can tell it’s not yet published. Why on earth would this be reported if it hasn’t made it through the publishing process? Lol

Here is a reaction to the findings that were presented at the conference mentioned in the op article.

Potted plants will need water and occasional fertilizer.

If I remember correctly, people from your server need to subscribe to the community for the posts to federate. I can’t remember if it’s just one subscriber or if more are needed. Sorry, that’s not super helpful >.<

I think you might have a federation issue, there are daily posts that I can see. Even one as recent as five hours ago

Freeze into ice cubes to use in place of regular ice in iced coffee

Carroll said investigators believed the suspect was armed with a shotgun, a handgun and knives. He also said the suspect was believed to have been a guest at the hotel.

It amazes me that there has been four (I think?) close-ish attempts on this man’s life in the last decade, three in the last two years, and things like this still get through.

I think so, too. This is why it’s important to talk about non-combat PTSD. So more people get the help they need, and there’s less stigma around it.

I did mean it in the dragon context, haven’t had my coffee yet xD Thank you for the correction

The article is confusing because it paints him as a “highly respected” ethical hunter and conservationist that hunts under culling licenses, but goes on to say the duiker he was hunting is rare and elusive. Wikipedia lists it as near threatened.

Man had a horde hoard of animal trophies too, so it seems like he just found a loophole to killing and collecting animals in a ‘respectable’ way

Edit: pre-coffee typo :)

I’m a Navy veteran with service connected PTSD. People question if I have PTSD sometimes and it does indeed piss me off, but I’m not out here claiming to have been blown up while serving. People are starting to become aware that PTSD doesn’t always stem from combat, and that awareness will help more people going forward. Mine comes from being attacked and raped by my shipmates, I didn’t expect to survive it.

I don’t feel disgust that USA Today asked him about his service, instead I wonder why he didn’t have a better response. He could have offered education about PTSD or said he wanted to increase transparency around disability ratings in the VA, or any number of things.
