Kind Of Obsessed With This Comment From The Aoteaora Nz Subreddit….

my bestie is always going on about how she wants to live in the *big city* but she can’t deal with the night screams we hear outside our small town apartment. Like I love you girlie but let’s be real Patrice, do you think there are not night screams in New York? I bet they night scream a lot in New York.

this. Just this. All my friends are in the get married have kids stage of life and I am just like: have a lumpy quilt, it is a little lopsided but full of love.

After much deliberation I've decided I'm gonna start making quilts and I'm going to make sloppy messy quilts for everyone I love then slowly but surely I'll be making beautiful quilts for everyone I love and I will have a fucking ball along the way and your homes will all be full of quilts.

currently maybe possibly single-handedly crashing whatever servers eton hosts its archived student newspapers on because me and a friend are getting obsessed with a single outspoken prefect from 1883

Why choose between Star Trek and Star Wars when I can have both? And also Stargate, Farscape and Galaxy Quest?

No.

They're all mine. I will defend them all to the death. 'Real sci-fi fans know the only good quality science fiction world is-' NO. I will have the commentary of a utopian/semi-utopian/post-utopian society dealing with current world problems through the science fiction lense by going where no one has ever gone before AND the galactic space opera with space wizards fighting space imperialism AND the show with a team of people fighting against body snatching space snakes/life force sucking space bugs AND the ragtag group of alien criminals, puppets and an astronaut cruising through space inside a sentient ship AND the love letter to the fans of the first mentioned series.

And you can't stop me.

huge carrot recall affecting the united states and canada due to shiga toxin-producing e. coli

U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Grimmway Farms Recalls Organic Whole and Select Organic Baby Carrots That May Be in Consumers’ Homes Due to Potential E. coli Contamination

Grimmway Farms has issued a recall of select organic whole carrots and organic baby carrots that should no longer be in grocery stores but m

this recall may expand. see below for details.

Grimmway Farms has issued a recall of select organic whole carrots and organic baby carrots that should no longer be in grocery stores but may be in consumers' refrigerators or freezers. These products may have been contaminated with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) O121:H19. E. coli O121:H19 is a bacterium that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, elderly people, and those with a weakened immune system. Some infections can cause severe bloody diarrhea conditions, such as a hemolytic uremic syndrome, or the development of high blood pressure, chronic kidney disease, and neurologic problems. Symptoms include severe stomach cramps, diarrhea, fever, nausea, and/or vomiting. The incubation period for E. coli O121:H19 in humans can range from 24 hours to as much as ten days. The average incubation period is 3 to 4 days.

The following recalled products were shipped directly to retail distribution centers nationwide in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada: - Organic whole carrots, which do not have a best-if-used-by date printed on the bag, but were available for purchase at retail stores from August 14 through October 23, 2024, - Organic baby carrots with best-if-used-by-dates ranging from September 11 through November 12, 2024. The recalled carrots should not be available for purchase in stores but may be in consumers' refrigerators or freezers.

formatting on tumblr is difficult, please see the FDA outbreak investigation page for the affected ranges of best-by dates for baby carrots, and pictures of the affected carrots.

as of time of posting, the main FDA recall page and the CDC investigation page have an error and do not list Kroger or LIDL baby carrots, while the FDA outbreak investigation page does. I am assuming that this means they are part of the recall and that this error will probably be fixed soon.

the recalled carrots are thought to be associated with an E. coli O121:H19 outbreak. 39 illnesses, 15 hospitalizations, and one death have been linked to this outbreak so far.

as always, these numbers are expected to be lower than the true number of illnesses and deaths, and will likely rise. not everyone seeks medical attention, and even when all testing and reporting procedures go as smoothly as possible, it can take weeks to officially link an illness to an outbreak.

<em>E. coli</em> Infection (<em>Escherichia coli</em>)

E. coli Outbreak Linked to Organic Carrots

Page describes an outbreak of E. coli linked to organic carrots.

U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Outbreak Investigation

Do not eat or serve multiple brands of recalled bagged organic whole and baby carrots supplied by Grimmway Farms. FDA’s investigation is ong

noteworthy from the FDA investigation page:

FDA is working with the firm to determine the source of contamination and whether additional products are affected. This advisory will be updated as information becomes available.

in short, there is a possibility this contamination may affect more than just the recalled carrots. keep up to date with these pages to stay on top of this outbreak.

the recalled carrots are no longer on shelves. but if they are in your fridge or freezer, destroy or discard them and clean anything they may have touched.

do NOT eat these carrots! this strain of e. coli is dangerous and at least one person has died.

if you think you got sick in relation to this outbreak, please seek medical attention, even if just to get your illness officially associated with this outbreak.
