Just a woman engineer, rolling around in the NYC/Long Island construction world. Instead of posting work, this will mostly be for horses and Marvel. The best combo!
Most companies are probably going to continue their regular food safety procedures, but a few things you can do to reduce some personal risk:
Buy hard, solid veggies and fruits (apples, melons) or ones with rinds (bananas are probably fine). Scrub the peel/rind thoroughly with soap and water before consumption.
The more solid and dense the meat, the less likely it is for contamination to spread very far. Buy your meat in solid cuts, NOT GROUND. Especially not ground chicken rn, salmonella bad.
Cook things thoroughly. Follow guidelines for the internal temperatures meat is supposed to reach and stick to those guidelines. Use a meat thermometer. Make your steaks well done for a while.
I’d stay away from shellfish as a whole if I were you. The diseases you can get from it are some of the nastier ones. No sushi for a while, too. If you have fish, make sure it was frozen following anti-parasitic guidelines and cook thoroughly.
AVOID LEAFY GREENS. This is where we’ve been seeing the most outbreaks lately, so be very careful.
The pregnant, elderly, immunocompromised, and the very young are the ones most at risk in an outbreak. If you are in one of these groups, be extremely cautious and avoid soft cheeses and prepackaged deli meats. Check on friends and family in these groups. Report symptoms of foodborne illness to a doctor so they can report to the state health depts that are still running.
Even with these in mind, remember that most outbreaks of foodborne illness are due to things like improper cooking and storage. Stay safe out there, folks 💙
Really? Y’all are seriously going to claim that it’s “homophobic” to be concerned about an 11 year old boy dancing for the enjoyment of grown ass men at an adults only event in exchange for money?
Bitch, many of the people calling this shit out are LGBT themselves. Because it’s fucking creepy.
Allow me to reiterate. An 11 year old boy performed in drag at a gay club for men several times his age, at an event that was explicitly for people aged 21 or over, in exchange for money. You seriously don’t see anything wrong with that? This is the kind of shit that homophobic pundits would use against us.
YOU SHOULD BE OUTRAGED ABOUT THIS! THERE’S NOTHING GOOD ABOUT THIS SITUATION! THERE’S NOTHING THAT SHOULD BE CELEBRATED HERE!
And here’s for anyone that still wants to pretend none of this is problematic in any way.
Here is the kid sitting next to Michael Alig. Well known methhead who was a drug addict/party personality in the 80s and served time for murdering his own friend with a hammer and cutting him into pieces.
In front of a painting that says “rohypnol”, a date rape drug.
Honestly, if this was a girl doing this for an audience of straight men, this would be on national news and in court in three seconds
Someone please save this kid
I was happy with this kid marching in the pride parade with responsible adults around him, this is something else entirely….
this child has a website where you can “book” him. why is there a description of his basic features? why is there a subject field? BOOK HIM FOR WHAT? HE’S 11 YEARS OLD.
i’m gonna be honest i didn’t even read the tweet because i had to hit reblog too fast when i saw this guy’s name is “i like hitting police because i am homosexual”
