    Not a big fan of it myself, but the best snack ever is some kettle chips and cottage cheese as the dip. It looks weird/gross, yet every one who has tried it has loved it. I usually sprinkle some black pepper on it prior.

    Vera is my absolute favorite British detective show! Also really enjoyed Grandchester, especially if they liked father Brown. Line of duty is pretty good too. Unforgotten is really good as well.

    I took a BP medicine called Clonidine for PTSD nightmares as well. I wonder what it is about them that help.

    My biggest issue was having already naturally low BP, so couldn't take it at the dose they wanted. Luckily, it still worked. Just had to go in frequently to have my pressure checked.

    Potential therapeutic use and consumption...

    Wait , so we can still eat the pig after it's sacrificed for the heart?

    I am not a geneticist, so maybe I am overreacting, but are they only messing with the heart genes?

    I think I would like to skip the pork chops from these pigs.

    Right?! We call it "The before times" now in my circle. It's so stark, it's similar to how everything changed after 9/11.

    Ironically, in my bubble of life/friends there are two camps, like you stated and I am in camp 2016. I always use the night the Cubs won the world series as my benchmark ;) nothing has been the same since.

    Their chicken is nasty IMO. I just got Purdue at Kroger and hour ago and it was 2.99 a pound for boneless/skinless. It's my preferred brand. Butchered well, way more tender.

    Ok, that's fair. I think I got really mad about the trees :/ Especially living where I do. When I am in the concrete jungle it is crazy how much hotter it is.

    Regarding emissions, I agree something has to change. On top of the oil and gas, our chemical plants are killing us too. They call where I live Chemical Valley and one town near a huge plant has the 4th highest cancer rate in the country.

    Add to that, this is coal country. It's baffling how many people around me are disabled or have lost family who worked in the mines, yet flip out when you talk about taking their coal away.

    This article is frustrating for me. Especially his take on trees. The article states the target goal/amount of trees planted would only reduce carbon 6%. Ok, but, it will reduce temperature. I live in WV near a state forest. It is typically 7°-15° F cooler at my house than in town. Additionally, the sun in the summer doesn't even hit my house until noon-ish, which significantly reduces my air conditioner consumption. I chose to share this mostly for awareness. I am not especially fond of his perspective.

    Same here! My main issues/concerns are due to weather and the lack of a place to charge up. Already this year we've seen how they don't do well in extreme cold or heat. And my area also had significant storms recently so flooding, no power, etc. And I live in an area will large hills (look like mountains, but not quite) and my friends with electric cars complain about it quite a bit. It drains the battery and struggles on some inclines.

    The best I've seen so far is a Lexus hybrid sedan a friend has. Handles the terrain well, charges as you drive, doesn't need plugged in at all.

    I feel like they need to have more going for them until we can all switch.

    'Public health has lost the war': States legalize raw milk, despite public health warnings

    LORIMOR, Iowa — Babe the goat is trendier than she looks. Babe lives a quiet life on a hillside farm in southern Iowa, where she grazes on grass with a small herd of fellow goats. Her owner, Stacy Wistock, milks her twice a day. Wistock takes precautions to keep the milk clean, but she rarely pasteurizes it. Until recently, she gave it away to family and friends. Now, she’ll make a little money off it. Iowa legislators decided this spring to join dozens of other states in allowing small producers to sell unpasteurized milk from cows, goats, and sheep. [The story continues ](https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2023/07/03/raw-milk-legalized-states-unpasteruized-disease-risks-public-health/70369454007/)

    This is extremely interesting to me. I live in WV and although beautiful, our land and waterways are quite toxic. Hopefully there will be some positive outcome for the plaintiffs.
