#Texas agricultural commissioner and Trump loyalist Sid Miller warns ranchers are saying they don't want to report possible #Screwworm cases because of #Trump's draconian but clearly failing #quarantines. Miller also accused this Administration of refusing to use experimental but promising bait traps with carpet bombing insecticides because of the massive risks to local ecosystems + people that are about to be ravaged by Screwworms anyway at this rate.

Obviously Trump having inconsistent #quarantines for everything is stupid, because #NWScrewworm doesn't care what type of mammal you are. Cow, bat, human, etc, etc, it eats you all the same way at about the same rate. They care not where they get their pound of flesh, only that they slate their ravenous hunger. Could be you, your pets, your livestock, or the wildlife you never even see. Should be treated consistently, especially not preferring livestock WTAF!!!

Fun fact about #ZavalaCounty, #Texas where yesterday #Trump's #USDA confirmed the 1st #USA bovine case of #NewWorldScrewworm in the decades since it was previously eradicated, it's not even on the border with Mexico. How'd it get there past Trump #borderClosures, Trump #quarantines & at least 1 other county? #NWS is a parasitic fly, it does not care about borders. This will spread rapidly in the predicted hotter than normal summer heat. Hope y'all love expensive #beef!

Started reading a random compilation of 1969-70 #scifi short stories that I bought while trying to keep #bookstores in business during the worst of the #quarantines - first one in the collection has the main character being a professional puppy murderer as a child, and being essentially a pathological killer while also being a hero and the ideal military officer. He also thought he killed an angel.
I don’t know who Howard Fast is but he has issues.

In 2022, the #world #population crossed 8 billion #people — and we felt the scale of this monumental #milestone in hundreds of ways. After over two years of #lockdowns and #quarantines, people eagerly #restarted their #lives, but there were certainly #growing #pains. Weddings and #travel skyrocketed, but so did lost luggage and global inflation rates. Taylor Swift broke Ticketmaster. #Cryptocurrency was headed toward a great year until it really, really wasn’t. 2022 tested the world #population as we tested out life in a new phase of the pandemic.
#Russia invaded #Ukraine, and aid relief flooded into the #war-torn country. #Refugees were welcomed into surrounding countries, and those who stayed behind inspired people around the world. #Global protests cried out for justice in Iran. #Football teams stood up for migrant workers and the LGBTQ+ community at the World Cup. #Cuba legalized same-sex marriage. The world froze for a moment when #England’s longest-reigning monarch, #Queen Elizabeth II, died. And we all watched a lot of #TikTok ...
