Oh no, I guess he’ll never be president now. How sad.

The scary part is that, according to John Oliver, he could be Trump’s secretary of HHS if elected. Which is close to as bad in his case.

Chip_Rat , in Mom fights back in grizzly bear attack: ‘I’m not ready to leave my daughter’

Where did this happen, and what kind of bears?? Is it just me or is this article lacking…

Where is Yukon Canada? And is Ontario Canada inside it? Or was she visiting from our of town? This Grizzly attack was black bears?

Chip_Rat ,

ctvnews.ca/…/yukon-woman-narrowly-escapes-bear-at…

This article explains what happened and where and what kind of bears…

Zannsolo , in Mom fights back in grizzly bear attack: ‘I’m not ready to leave my daughter’

Sounds like the dog scared and probably chased the smaller threats off and left her to get mauled by the big guy. I’m kinda surprised it didn’t stay closer to the lady and scuffle with the big boy.

iAmTheTot , in SpaceX accused of dumping mercury into Texas waters for years

I would be exactly 0% shocked to learn this was true.

ShepherdPie ,

I’d be shocked if Abbott didn’t try to give them a Texas Medal of Freedom award for doing this.

HoustonHenry ,

And for removing water breaks for workers when it’s really hot out

meco03211 ,

Or… I could see him mandating more water breaks… provided it comes from the test area. People in the biz refer to that as remediation.

HoustonHenry ,

Ah yes, I forgot about that old fallback

Plastic_Ramses ,

And with Chevron ruling they wont face any repercussions!

Isnt crony capitalism great!?!?!?!

threelonmusketeers ,

Would you be more shocked to learn that it isn’t true? It is possible that this entire story is based on two typos in the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality report.

418_im_a_teapot ,

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted (although you’re username would certainly give the impression you’re just defending musk).

The information you linked to does indeed cast doubt on the validity of the report. Corrected information will be needed before concrete conclusions can be drawn.

I hate Musk as much as the next person, and definitely wouldn’t be surprised if he was dumping chemicals in the water. But that doesn’t mean we should let confirmation bias cloud our ability to think critically.

Cenzorrll ,

I went through the report, and the raw data at the end shows the two samples coming back at “0.139” and “ND”

Cataphract ,

It could be that they mod all the musk communities and are an elon stan but more than likely it’s because they’ve plastered the same comment over 14 times with now llama taking over who is also an active user in the same communities making it seem like brigading. If the case was stated in a single comment it might be upvoted more than others, at this point they’re just spamming anyone who comments regardless of the context.

I’m all for putting your truth out there, but it just seems like they’re trying to drown out everyone with a “nuh uh, believe me” over letting the facts play out. It’s not like this thread is gonna have any real impact on the company or perception at this point no matter what anyone says.

@llamacoffee@lemmy.world avatar

My dear friend, the report is factually false. I can’t speak for others, but I personally find it to only be responsible to help dispel false news. And for what it’s worth, Elon is an asshole in my view, but that is irrelevant in this context, wouldn’t you agree?

As for the facts, you may check them yourself. Here is the actual application. Typo is on page 79, the actual figure is in the appendix on page 177.

Maybe you’re wondering why I am keen on sharing all this. I am a big fan of spaceflight, it’s just something I like and find inspiring. False reports that lean heavily on “Elon Musk bad” make the spacefaring future I’m rooting for more difficult to achieve. Surely it’s ok to correct misinformation?

Cataphract ,

My dearest lover, I appreciate you reaching out to me in this way. I missed all the other links you’ve put up and so this copy/paste directly made for me has made my heart swell. I regret to inform you that you’re behind in your news updates and the reporting is only getting worse for you at this time. I apologize for the inconvenience and will never give up being your shelter and rock in the stormy sea of life.

    Deconceptualist , in US air force avoids PFAS water cleanup, citing supreme court’s Chevron ruling

    So “federal regulators lack the authority” to order a cleanup, even though feds made the orders that led to environmental damage in the first place. Riiiiight.

    xenoclast ,

    This is nothing. Wait until you see what the corporations will do when they’re told to stop polluting say the water source of a major city and they say fuck you to the EPA

    It’s gonna get so so so much worse

    "Millions leave Chicago because Dow Chemical poisons the water table. When asked for comment a DOW chemical PR representative said: ‘Yeah, suck a dick losers’ "

    NotMyOldRedditName ,

    The EPA can still take them to court with a jury over things like this, but they won’t have the resources to take everyone to court.

    So you still gotta be smart about it and not do something like completely wreck the water source for Chicago, because they’ll use their limited resources to go after them.

    But some small town no one cares about? Probably much easier.

    xenoclast ,

    You’re talking about the same companies that own entire local governments. That get to choose the rules they play under in normal situations.

    This is like nothing any human currently alive in America has experienced. It’s worse than 1800s robber Baron America. It’s the same attitude and people with (and I means this literally) million of times greater resources than the government.

    The 44 years of dismantling and disrupting any power the government had is starting to pay off in spades.

    The reality is, we’ll look at my original comment and laugh at how naive and quaint it was. Like people saying “Trump will never win” then "How bad could he fuck it up really?.. and then…

    daqu , in Starbucks’ CEO is out. Chipotle’s Brian Niccol is taking over

    From one bean company to another. I hope everyone calls him Mr. Bean.

    I’m now hoping he looks like a Wish Mr. Bean.

    Resol , in Racism Is Why Trump Is So Popular
    @Resol@lemmy.world avatar

    Pretty sure this applies to all right-wing politicians, especially ones of the far-right.

    Yepp. Even if they don’t speak to it, they are Trojan horses.

    NABDad , in Rachael Lillis, 'Pokémon' actor who voiced Misty and Jessie, dies at 46

    That article gets her age wrong. She was 55. Born July 8, 1969, as confirmed by her sister.

    variety.com/…/rachael-lillis-dead-pokemon-misty-j…

    Rhaedas ,

    I believed the 46. She looked great for 55. A wonderful person from the testimonies. Fuck cancer.

    roguetrick , (edited )

    That makes more sense. I was in elementary school when season 1 came out and she would’ve gotten the VA job for production right at like age 18/19 with no resume for such a major project.

    SeaJ , in Donald Trump says he will flee to Venezuela if he loses election [Newsweek]

    I’m sure Maduro will welcome him with open arms.

    This is slightly at odds with many Republican legislators because many people fleeing Venezuela are firmly on the right. When DeSantis did his whole transporting Texas asylum seekers, one of the main issues was that money for that was not to be used for people fleeing Venezuela.
