  6. Op shop at risk of closure after donation leaves volunteer 'traumatised'

    In short:

    The Daylesford Community Op Shop has temporarily closed due to a donation infested with bed bugs.

    The store has lost thousands of dollars’ worth of items and spent about $3,000 on cleaning services so far.

    What’s next?

    The store cannot reopen until two further deep cleans have been completed and there are fears the financial impact will be too much to overcome.

  7. THE INDY ONION!

    Hegseth admits he said:
    "kill every one of them" and is very upset someone tapped his personal phone when he was talking about bedbugs. Yes, he was bugged and he was bugged...

  9. #safely eradicate #parasites via #gene-drive
    #medical : lice, scabies : #gene_drive
    #lice (body, pubic, head) & #mites (' #scabies ') and #bedbugs have no #natural_predators , it would be fantastically amazing to have a #genedrive to #eradicate the sometimes-lethal insects. Last year, it was widely reported, one on the east coast had died -- was literally eaten alive by a parasite colony in jail. No treatment had been granted, despite repeat complaints. More recently, prisoners in #ice jails, families & children in #Gaza , and held in #Israeli #prisons have reported being deliberately #infected with scabies and lice, suffering horribly. Also #RX #treatment_resistance - much like #antibiotic_resistance w #superbugs - to conventional RX (#antiparasitics ) has skyrocketed: in late 1990s, efficacy was ~97% in USA. But a decade ago by 2016, dropped to ~35%. Today, the identical treatment is prescribed as 30 years ago. Finally, said #drugs = #neurotoxin #nerve_damage . A #genedrive could fix all of that. What is it? A gene edit which makes 100% of all offspring male: no females = inability to #reproduce and it perpetuates every generation so an edited male reproduces w nonedited female and all eggs become male, also carrying the gene-edit.... And eventually the colony depopulates entirely. A very fast & effective cure ..... versus.... a months-long hopeless battle dousing one's body in vinegar, daily, plus numerous other toxins & nerve damage.

    (They're securely contained in a vial with a tight-fitting lid. The graph paper is a label recording the species, location, and date they were collected. I can put isopropyl alcohol in to kill and preserve them at this point, but I need to buy more.)
