Infant deaths increased after Texas banned abortion in early pregnancy (www.statnews.com)

Among the causes of infant deaths, one increased the most: congenital abnormalities, which increased 22.9% in Texas in children between 2021 and 2022, while they decreased 2.9% in the rest of the country. That trend suggests that at least in some cases, parents were forced to carry a pregnancy to term while knowing their...

YurkshireLad,

Abortions. Murder not sanctioned. Liberals and Democrats. Muuuuuurderrrrrr!!

YurkshireLad,

Free speech is only free speech if it’s what the GOP want you to say.

YurkshireLad,

If only Biden could debate as well as Jon Stewart. He’d destroy Trump though we all know Donny wouldn’t dare turn up to that debate.

YurkshireLad,

That’s typical of today; executives screw up and the workers get fired.

YurkshireLad,

It’ll fail, like so many of his other businesses.

YurkshireLad,

Maybe the theme is just broken? Perhaps it’s abandoned and old? I don’t know, I’m just guessing.

YurkshireLad,

Can people start pushing him for proof of his claims, to his face and on camera.

Health-care system is 'broken,' Niagara woman says after dad dies suddenly in emergency room (www.cbc.ca)

The (Ontario Health) coalition, which advocates for improvements to the public health care system, is documenting experiences like Zammit’s at hearings around rural Ontario this month. With input from opposition critics, the network of over 400 grassroot organizations wants to draft recommendations on how to improve local...

YurkshireLad,

Ah yes, Ford, who’s more interested in getting beer into our bellies and land into the hands of his developer friends, than taking care of his constituents.

Friends don’t let friends vote Tory.

Colorado Republican Brutally Grilled By Local News Anchor: ‘Why Is Abortion Good For Your Girlfriend? Bad For Other Women?’ (www.mediaite.com)

Colorado congressional candidate and sitting State Rep. Richard Holtorf ® received a tough grilling this week at the hands of local 9News anchor Kyle Clark over his apparent hypocrisy when it comes to abortion rights....

YurkshireLad,

Republicans will whine about the unfair treatment by the interviewer, deflecting from the utter hypocrisy of this vapid idiot.

YurkshireLad,

Trump would fill his pants if he was ever in any kind of war zone. But you know that’ll never happen because he’s a coward.

YurkshireLad,

Good point. I was referring to leaders that visit warzones to support allies and so on. He would never do that.

YurkshireLad,

I see there’s nothing in their manifesto about school kids getting mown down by guns. But we have to protect them from those nasty transgender…… people.

YurkshireLad,

This isn’t the first time apparently, though it wasn’t a loan last time: investbrampton.ca/italpasta-limited-invests-in-pa…

I wonder what happened to those 8 jobs.

I also wonder how hard they threatened to shut down their factory if they didn’t receive the money?

YurkshireLad,

I’m sure all those women that were harassed, beaten, arrested and killed for removing their hijabs are mourning. I’m positive they are.

The Tech Robber Baron who wants to take over San Francisco (newrepublic.com)

Balaji, a 43-year-old Long Island native who goes by his first name, has a solid Valley pedigree: He earned multiple degrees from Stanford University, founded multiple startups, became a partner at Andreessen-Horowitz and then served as chief technology officer at Coinbase. He is also the leader of a cultish and increasingly...

The GOP’s “Election Integrity” Lawyer Was Just Indicted for Election Subversion (www.motherjones.com)

The attorney, Christina Bobb running the Republican National Committee’s “election integrity” effort has been criminally charged by the state of Arizona for her efforts to help Donald Trump steal the 2020 election. This turn of events highlights the Orwellian meaning of the phrase “election integrity,” as used by Trump...

YurkshireLad,

We don’t really need The Onion at this point.

YurkshireLad,

Great but don’t delay any penalties until it’s too late.

YurkshireLad,

I dread to think what he was promised in return, and why he thinks Trump will keep his word.

YurkshireLad,

Look in his bathroom, I’m sure it’s there somewhere.

YurkshireLad,

“Big Tent Approach - all are welcome”. 🤣

YurkshireLad,

Don’t let him back in the uk. Simple as that. Rescind his citizenship. The government are too cowardly to do that.

YurkshireLad,

Sure no one should be surprised. I don’t he would blink if his own kids died, except maybe his daughter, because boobs.

YurkshireLad,

Mar-A-Largo? A billion dollars? F*ck me sideways, that’s hilarious!

Saudi Arabia to be appointed chair of UN’s gender equality forum amid ongoing assault on women’s rights (www.amnesty.org)

Ahead of the expected announcement that Saudi Arabia will be appointed chair of the UN women’s rights forum at the annual meeting of the UN Commission of the Status of Women today, Amnesty International’s Deputy Director for Advocacy, Sherine Tadros, said:...

YurkshireLad,

Quit yacking and do it. Take the properties and give Trump what he deserves. I hope this isn’t another story that fizzles out.

YurkshireLad,

I wonder what/how many drugs he’s taking to keep his blood pressure down and keep him alive.

YurkshireLad,

I would love for anyone to say that, especially someone who isn’t famous.

YurkshireLad,

I’m surprised he hasn’t received Russian money yet.

YurkshireLad,

I closed my accounts at TD years ago because I was tired of sales pitches every time I went into the bank for any reason.

YurkshireLad,

Simple answer is to stop using the self checkout. If loblaws is stupid enough to let people scan their own items, then what do they expect? That’s like calling the insurance company to report a stolen vehicle and saying you left the keys in, the engine running and the door open.

If people don’t want to scan a receipt then everyone should stop using self checkout.

YurkshireLad,

Except Firefox’s bookmark system on android is absolute crap and looks hideous.

YurkshireLad,

She’s a nut job. Send her back from whence she came.

YurkshireLad,

The original DOOM game was the first game I played with a friend where our PCs were connected together. It was a riot, especially when wearing headphones and hearing growls from behind you. I know modern tech has improved exponentially and graphics are unbelievable. But at the end of the day, it’s the experience that counts. And experiencing a multiplayer game for the first time like that, hasn’t been beaten yet, for me.

YurkshireLad,

No, this is when Taylor Swift has to fly commercial, the other passengers are forced to fly in the shuttle.

Or that’s for when Taylor Swift brings an extra piece of luggage.

I love Mastodon and ActivityPub. But I think Nostr is going to win. Here's why.

Mastodon is a great platform. I have an account there, and I have been using it as a twitter replacement for several months. I have been using nostr for around two months. I have also read fairly deeply into how Mastodon and Nostr work. I think nostr is better. Here’s why....

YurkshireLad,

They are, it’s full of crypto folk and not much else.

YurkshireLad,

Yeah, you’re right. I completely forgot about the conspiracy theorists etc.

Interesting tech, shame about the content.
