    What if they kept the title? The US remake has US actors and starts in a US city but the train still has to go to Busan. Amid the zombie apocalypse, survivor must lay the tracks either over the Pacific, across the sky, or through Earth. The train must reach Busan, no matter what.

    ICYMI: The hugely successful South Korean zombie thriller Train to Busan is getting a US remake...

    The US drone strikes and kills 9 people, of which 6 are children, to kill one -suspected- ISIS-K suicide bomber - absolutely disgusting headlines, US media rewriting history on behalf of the US army for now and ever.

    News headlines should be leading/updated with how 9 members of an Afghan family, including 6 children, were killed in today’s US drone strike not that a single suspected ISIS-K suicide bomber was targeted.

    Pest control companies love to sell this treatment called a "perimeter spray" where they spray a general insect poison all around your home. It's ludicrously ineffective. It also kills a lot of non pests. Don't let them do it. Not even if it's free.

    I wonder what the difference is. Oh right, the US doesn't actually consider anyone living in a predominantly non-white country an actual real-life human.

    How do you think US media would headline these stories if 9 US folks of which 6 are kids are blown up because Afghanistan suspects 1 US war criminal is hiding in the house?

    ACT and National wanting to convene Parliament in person and not virtually is exactly how we know they wouldn't be capable of making the right decisions if they were in power during a global pandemic.

    Māori health providers are accelerating efforts to close a gap that's left far fewer Māori vaccinated against Covid-19 than any other group.

    Remember when, at the first sign of resurgence this time last year, Seymour said "we have to learn to live with Covid", and then spent weeks claiming he had never said it. I look forward to him claiming he never said this a month from now.

    Back in highschool when I first read David Brin's Uplift sci-fi novels, I though it was ridiculous how some alien species went extinct by their own hand before joining the galactic civilization of the Five Galaxies. Now though? I get it. I totally get it.

    So if you take 36mg ivermectin, 91 hours later at most 18mg remains. 182 hours later, at most 9mg. 273 hours, at most 4.5mg. But wait! That's spread through your skin, organs, and muscle! And someone would really only be eating skeletal muscle.

    Complicated question. There's a 3-4 week withdrawal period in animals bound for slaughter, but that's to make sure there is no detectable ivermectin in the carcass. Half life in humans is 81-91 hours.

    In the event of a worldwide catastrophe and total collapse of our food chains, is it safe to eat people who took the horse de-wormer?

    This is absolutely bonkers. The Mississippi River is 200’ deep at New Orleans, and a half mile wide. That’s a wall of water as tall as a skyscraper and as wide as a city block, with 2,000 miles of water behind it. Ida stopped the flow, then briefly reversed it.

    For several hours today, the winds & storm surge from made the Mississippi River flow *backwards* (negative discharge rate in the graph).

    So one single narcotics detective has finally been caught testilying, and now hundreds of cases are in question. I want to tell you about my personal experience with this fool, and about how the scale of impact here is much, much bigger than it seems.

    Now observe how the US public will *not* be inundated with images from this drone strike on a 24 hour loop, photos of the deceased, their names & stories, images of them grieving, wall-to-wall commentary examining the impact of this decision by the US.

    Nine members of one family, including six children, were killed in the US drone strike in Kabul, a brother of one of those killed told a local journalist working with CNN. Six children.
