stackofflapjacks posted:Northeast goons, wear a mask out in the smoke, start checking the smoke forecast and avoid the head splitting headaches that results from inhaling particulates for more than 15min unprotected. Limit physical activity outside (strenuous breathing). Home air purifier in your bedroom at night is really helpful, especially if you live in an older house that isn't sealed up tight. On this note, turn off exhaust fans in the laundry and/or bathrooms. They can create negative pressure in your home, making the "bad air" want to enter via any unsealed cracks/doors/windows/vents.

I'm in the Midwest, about 2 hours or so east of Detroit. Things look okay outside, when will this hit my area? Or is it here, and I haven't noticed?

I have a furnace filter that fits over a small window in my house to allow for some air in during Smoke Season (using the bathroom fan as exhaust) so my house doesn't get so stuffy I can't think.

In case you weren't aware of it yet, Rammstein - Till Lindemann specifically - has been under fire for the past couple of days. - what lit the fuse was an Irish fan that was invited to "RowZero" (essentially VIP front- and Backstage fan event) and, from that circle of selection, selected for a "very personal" party with Till, at which she was made very uncomfortable (see details in the article) and roofied according to her account, she even sustained hematoma with no knowledge as to their cause - what followed was, unfortunately, inaccurate reporting by the media and absolutely disgusting dog piling and victim blaming by Rammsteins massive fan base - after a couple of days, a couple of German Youtubers picked up the topic and gave some support to the victim, but most significantly, one YouTuber in particular (Kayla Shyx) came out with an excruciatingly detailed account of her own from the past regarding this issue, and she brought receipts - in the meantime, actual journalists had apparently been following up reports and leads from DOZENS (!) of other women and girls who claim being drugged and sexually exploited against their will by Lindemann tl;dr: Lindemann is probably a massive sex pest and his status and power came with a circle of people that systematically recruited women and underage girls for him, with roofies possibly also involved equally systematically The reports on this have been blowing the gently caress up in Germany since Kayla's video dropped, and I'm assuming the news may wash over the pond shortly. I'm also assuming (hoping) that this topic gets international traction, and isn't just limited to Rammstein, but puts a bigger focus on the systemic issue with abuse of power in the music industry, because i am ONE HUNDRED PERCENT certain that poo poo like this isn't limited just to Germany's mist popular export. Rammstein is playing its first of four consecutive shows about 10 miles from where I lay my head, so I'm also expecting that the remaining three shows may or may not be happening https://www.dw.com/en/rammstein-tou...ur%20continues.

Here in northern NJ we just got a code red for air quality which I think means AQI is between 150 and 200. It was worse during lunch, coughed so hard I threw up a little bit. Not sure if it's hitting me harder as a former smoker. Don't worry there were still golfers out as I left post. They're old anyway, let em breathe it up.

Hold your horses on the Meadows thing, literally nobody has that story other than that dude and resistancelibs. Only actual thing we know about is that he testified under subpoena and shut the gently caress up after. A lot of people have been doing that - media didn't even know about the Florida Grand Jury until like yesterday. Also, on indictment timing, Jack Smith is still hauling people in: https://twitter.com/akarl_smith/status/1666565478242832385?t=ctXeEb_9cA5JzdJnMN6Iig&s=19

I had an ex about 15 years back who had front-row seats at one of their concerts, got invited to a backstage party and then got the hell out when Till got very.. aggressively insistent. Not anything necessarily actionable but said ex was super super uncomfortable with it all.

I wouldn't say it's as bad as I've seen out west, but given that this is coming from loving Canada it's pretty crazy. I looked up the airfield weather report for NAS Norfolk and it was calling 2 miles visibility. In layman's terms, this means that all aircraft are required to fly using instruments, as it's below minimums for visual flight rules.
