emenaman @lemmy.worldto Public Health@mander.xyz•Disposable E-Cigarettes More Toxic Than Traditional Cigarettes8·1 month agoI remember reading articles about the people ending up with bad pneumonia from those black market weed vapes because they were vaping actual oil, which coating your lungs is deadly. I don’t think anyone actually got popcorn lung, which was from the diacetyl in the custard flavored vapes. The history of that was from using that chemical in the fake butter popcorn factories, hence popcorn lung. It was a buzzword they loved throwing around to try and get people off the deadly vapes. Those days are behind me now, they helped me and countless friends off the real smokes.
emenaman @lemmy.worldto Public Health@mander.xyz•Disposable E-Cigarettes More Toxic Than Traditional Cigarettes181·1 month agoThere has always been horrible reporting by the media when it comes to the vape industry. I’m interpreting that caption written like that to subconsciously influence perception of anything ‘pod’ to be bad. Years ago when I still vaped, I can’t remember how many people would tell me about how I was messing up my lungs and going to get popcorn lung when all media was reporting about those illegal weed vapes filled with vitamin e oil. I blame big tobacco for all these hit pieces…
Now talking about these cheap disposable vapes, I for one think they should be banned as they are all super wasteful with all that plastic and lithium batteries while who knows what is in them.
emenaman @lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•ICE expands immigration raids into California's agricultural heartland10·2 months agoI remember them raiding the smaller farms back in the 80s. The owners struggle to continue to make any type of profit and sell out to the bigger corps. Then in a few years they are back to employing these so call immigrants. I believe this is all just class warfare.
emenaman @lemmy.worldtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•4,000 chicks died in the mail. They expose a darker truth about the meat industry | Why millions of chickens never make it to the slaughterhouse.151·3 months agoWe usually order 50 day old chicks every year to raise on our small farm. They come via USPS and they usually take a day to travel 120 miles to our local post office where we get a call when they arrive. They look happy and healthy when we pick them up and never lost any due to the travel.
This year we lost 9 out of 40 ordered in just one day. They seemed tired and not their normal chipper self. We took care of them and didn’t lose any past those first 24 hours of arrival. Checked the tracking details and they traveled up and down the state for 2 days before we got the call. Not sure what changed at the post office but glad to see attention placed on it via an article like this.

emenaman @lemmy.worldto People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•Technology sure has come a long way3·5 months agoMy Ring doorbell like this does connect to my existing power supply for a ‘dumb’ doorbell. This version shown is a wireless model aimed more at apartments which don’t have existing wiring or for a tenant who wants a removable version to take when they move.
I am not not associated with Ring, just a customer.

You are anxiously awaiting to take a bite and salivating for that moment. When you finally get served your plate and get to that scrumptious first bite, the biggest wave of disappointment hits and you lose your appetite.
I don’t know how else to explain it

Replace Harris with Democrats and then you’re talking. Not sure why he’s pointing fingers at Harris when he’s already brought up the real issue: oligarchs.
