This Freaky Fruit Fly Lays Eggs in Your Strawberries | Deep Look

The spotted wing drosophila may look like a common fruit fly, but it’s so much worse. Just as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries are ripening in the field, this fly saws into them and lays her eggs inside. The growing maggots turn the fruit into a mushy mess. Could a wasp and its own hungry maggots save the day?

Everytime I close a window, I hit somebody’s hands.” 4:00 “I went out last week, I tried something new. I tried group sex. Now I have a new problem… I don’t know who to thank.”

Staggering Amount Of Republicans See NOTHING Wrong With Widespread Gun Violence

If you don’t want to listen to the discussion please listen to the first few minutes as she lists the shootings that happened in just the last few days.    Hugs

As we just completed the first weekend of June, 12 people have been killed and another 38 were injured due to mass shootings, compared to the long Memorial Day weekend that left nine dead and 60 injured. If that wasn’t depressing enough, almost 45% of Republican voters believe mass shootings are “inevitable” when living in our ‘free’ society, a stark contrast from 85% of Democrats and 73% of Independents who said mass shootings are preventable responding to the same poll.

“The first weekend of June had a greater number of mass shooting deaths in the United States than the previous three-day weekend, which ended with Memorial Day.

The tally for weekend violence through Sunday night was at least 12 killed and at least 38 injured in mass shootings, defined by the Gun Violence Archive as an incident in which “four or more people are shot or killed, not including the shooter.”

During the holiday weekend nine were killed and more than 60 were injured in attacks fitting that definition.” https://www.insider.com/poll-4-in-10-…

“More than 4 in 10 Republicans think mass shootings are inevitable in a “free society,” according to a new poll by CBS News and YouGov.

The survey results came on the heels of a string of mass shootings across the country that have prompted Congress to once again consider legislation on gun control.

One of the questions in the poll asked respondents if they feel that mass shootings are “unfortunately something we have to accept as part of a free society” or “something we can prevent and stop if we really tried.”

In response, 44% of Republicans said mass shootings are inevitable “as part of a free society.” Meanwhile, 85% of Democrats and 73% of Independents said mass shootings are preventable “if we really tried.””

Herschel Walker PAC CAUGHT committing possible FELONY Crimes

A pro-Herschel Walker political action committee called 34N22, run by failed GOP operative Stephen Lawson (AKA Little Stevie Lawson), was caught engaging in possible felony crimes by handing out gas vouchers to voters in their efforts to unseat Raphael Warnock. Ben Meiselas reports.

TX Bill Would Ban Minors From Attending Drag Shows

As I said in a recent post these hyper religious anti-LGBTQ+ should be careful complaining about men with beards reading and talking with children.   I again post several pictures of their savior god who is in a dress, wearing a beard, surrounded by children.   What is it these people think is happening in public with children and drag performers?   It is only dress up.  It is not a stip and have sex show.   Plus when they do the drag queen story hour again everyone is in public and they are just men in costumes reading to kids.  And why do these assholes think they get to tell everyone else what they can do and can not do when it comes to raising their own children.   These are the same assholes who claim no one can make them vaccinate their kids, no one has the right to demand their kids wear masks at schools.   Yet they feel entitled to tell you what event you can allow your child to attend.  Entitled wannabe kings of the world or as I call them big asshole jerks.  Hugs

From Texas state Rep. Bryan Slaton:

The events of this past weekend were horrifying and show a disturbing trend in which perverted adults are obsessed with sexualizing young children.

As a father of two young children, I would never take my children to a drag show and I know Speaker Dade Phelan and the rest of my Republican colleagues wouldn’t either.

Protecting our own children isn’t enough, and our responsibility as lawmakers extends to the sexualization that is happening across Texas.

I promised my voters that I would stand up for their values and fight to protect Texas kids.

I was re-elected on that promise and I intend to keep it by authoring legislation to defend kids from being subjected to drag shows and other inappropriate events.

I look forward to working with my colleagues to pass this important legislation.

Slaton, who is fond of making public appearances carrying an assault weapon and wearing a belt of ammunition, first appeared on JMG in March 2021 when he introduced a bill making abortion a death penalty crime for doctors and even women who undergo the procedure.

Earlier this year he introduced a bill requiring genital exams for trans athletes in public schools.

As I reported yesterday, extremists on Saturday mobbed and attempted to enter the Dallas gay bar hosting the event that has enraged the usual haters.

Isn’t that just drag for kids? Just without the clever drag names.

Isn’t it funny how the party of “don’t take away MY freedom!” is constantly wanting to take away YOUR freedom?

Reminds me of the line in “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” from Henrik Vanger (Christopher Plummer’s character): “Isn’t it interesting how fascists always abuse the word ‘freedom?’”

if you don’t want your kids to see drag shows, don’t take them. but stop trying to get other parents to raise their children in your image.

If protecting their kids is important to them, what about protecting them from guns?

The whole Republican belief system and agenda is cherry picking hate and ignorance

TrollopeReader • an hour ago

are you going to ban Milton Berle, Flip Wilson (Geraldine), Laugh-in, The Three Stooges, all sorts of 1930s-2000’s Broadway plays, college plays, school plays, and the like to “protect” kids from “drag queens” ?

Your wife is Asian ..guess who plays female roles in Japanese and Chines plays from long ago? Yep — men.

But sure, walk around with police-killing bullets and a weapon of war on your shoulders … and watch the innocents get slaughtered, doing nothing in the legislature, except make it easier to destroy our youth …

NY Magazine Calls Feinstein “Mentally Compromised”

The founding fathers hated the idea of a political class ruling the country.   For them that was too close to a king and royalty.  They never wanted a permanent ruling class in the US instead they wanted a government for the people by THE PEOPLE.    She has been in public elected office for 52 years and before her impairment was made public she said she was going to run again.  WTF!  She is 89 years old.   Is there no younger people fit to lead the country, fit to hold those seats?   Think of it.  She started when she was 36 years old in 1969.  Can anyone her age really grasp the differences in the country as it is today, the needs of the people in their 20, 30, and even 40s?  Can she of the other nearly 90 year old people in congress relate to culture as the newer generations are living or do they still try to force the people to live in the hey day of their prime, the world they knew when they were 20, 30 or 40 years old?   How can someone who was 40 in the 1970’s relate to the modern world of 2022?  How can they understand the needs of society today, when the traditions they grew up with were so different?  Hugs

In the middle of their deep dive into Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s decades in office and her legacy, New York Magazine drops this observation:

Feinstein, who turns 89 in June, is older than any other sitting member of Congress. Her declining cognitive health has been the subject of recent reporting in both her hometown San Francisco Chronicle and the New York Times. It seems clear that Feinstein is mentally compromised, even if she’s not all gone. “It’s definitely happening,” said one person who works in California politics. “And it’s definitely not happening all the time.”

Reached by phone two days after 19 children were murdered in an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, in late May, Feinstein spoke in halting tones, sometimes trailing off mid-sentence or offering a non sequitur before suddenly alighting upon the right string of words. She would forget a recently posed question, or the date of a certain piece of legislation, but recall with perfect lucidity events from San Francisco in the 1960s.
