SPREAD THE WORD BEFORE THIS ACCOUNT IS CENSORED

[weavemama]

and incase anyone accuses me of “overreacting”… yes, scientists are literally fearing censorship policies that will prevent them from informing the public about Earth’s current climate. The EPA (environmental protection agency) all of the sudden had their grant programs frozen. This means that funding for further researched is denied, redevelopment of former industrial sites, air quality monitoring and education. This gag rule also prohibits any EPA employee from talking about it. Trump also banned the EPA from giving social media updates. So yes….. any verified science affiliated social media account IS at risk of being censored under trump’s presidency. The least we can do is further spread these tweet before they get deleted. We deserve to know what’s truly going on in our world…

WE NEED SCIENCE.

Jesus science is now the enemy too?  Have literal super villains taken over?

Coincidentally… 

This tweet from ‏AP Central U.S.Verified account ‏@APCentralRegion:

“BREAKING: Michigan environmental agency says Flint’s water system no longer has levels of lead exceeding the federal limit.

1:18 PM - 24 Jan 2017″

No study findings…? no link…? Did the federal limit go up or the lead magically go away?

CDC abruptly cancels conference on health effects of climate change.

Conference was set to take place in February, now been quietly cancelled after months of your tax money went in to prep work. Trump Administration Imposes Freeze On EPA Grants and Contracts.

Toxic cleanup programs and water quality testing gets the axe. The lead in Michigan didn't just disappear, its just that the department that tests for toxins in drinking water just got gagged. Expect papers stating Lead in drinking water is beneficial, coal is edible and a pint of crude oil a day keeps the doctor at bay. Anyone claiming otherwise is in for a tough uphill slog.

Pubs and Restaurants will Face Fines for Serving 'Overdone' Food -

Roast potato crackdown phase two: Soon pubs and restaurants will face fines for serving ‘overdone’ food Pubs and restaurants could soon be fined for serving well-done items such as triple-cooked chips or thin and crispy pizza under a second phase of the Government’s crackdown on burnt food. Pubs and restaurants could soon be fined …

Apparently how I cook a roast spud will give you all kinds of fucked up tumours and must be stringently regulated (to the point i’ll need to measure the colour of a roast spud against a fucking wallchart!) But its fine that you're banging back the yaegerbombs whilst you wait cause alcohol is good and taxable and not at all bad for you. The government can bite my banger if they think im hanging “browning” charts throughout a kitchen. Any decent chef knows at a glance when shit is under, just right or utterly fucking malkied. They also have enough respect to know that if its fucked they dont serve it, one bad review on any of the plethora of review sites tanks business nowadays. So theres no need for extra regulation on anything food related, if your poisoning people you die from lack of repeat business you daft cunts! The UK has gone full fucking mental. A study was done on mice showing that if you fed them a shitload of burnt toast they grew tumours, and now suddenly brown shit is fatally toxic to humans because “Science.” Just bypass that there have been no studies done to see what if any effect brown toast has on humans and waive millennia of culinary technique as a counter point to the insane “hypothesis”

Am I really seeing this on my dash uncritically. Holy fucking shit.

[chromauk-blog]

I’m reminded of another 20th century leader who could really tear shit up with a paintbrush and was just as willing to drop bombs on people over bullshit he simply made up on a morning over breakfast.

To be fair though Adolf was as FORCED to lead the NSDAP, as wee Georgie boy was at simply inventing WMDs all over the middle east. The take home message is that if you want to commit genocide, best buff up on your Bob Ross beforehand.

Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel.

Louise Erdrich (via lazypacific)

that sounds like a fucking WAGER. Solitude is the shit, not having to worry about anyone or anything other than yourself? where the hell is even the remotest of downsides to this?

Full text: Trump, Pence remarks at CIA Headquarters

President Donald Trump's full remarks at CIA headquarters on Saturday.

I don’t normally read entire speeches by Donald Trump but after my fellow Scot Armando Iannucci described it as “(Fuck me sideways it’s) horrific” I decided to give it a go, and yes I agree, WTF was it all about lol For anyone who doesn’t know who Armando is, well he created Malcolm Tucker.

[chromauk-blog]

I dont know anyone in the US who has the first clue who Malcolm Tucker is. They’re missing out, had they known in advance, maybe they wouldn't have willingly elected Kim Jong-il MK2.  I’m waiting for the news reports that trump can land 12 holes in one and clear out at 40 under par just to one up a dead despot. The upside I guess is that South Park will pretty much write itself for the next 4 years that this fucking balloon animal holds office.

So this happened?

You merely adopted the stupidity; I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see the light until I was a clown already.
