    You’d think you could deal with a flu outbreak in cattle without a state of fucking emergency. You’d also think that you’d not make claims about a flu humans aren’t getting yet as extremely deadly to humans.

    Great and all. But can we get something below a state of emergency. Everything seems to trigger one of those these days. It kinda loses it’s meaning when overused.

      In before Trump pulls a Mao Zedong and declares war on birds.

        And to think he was trying so hard to save them from the wind turbines, and this is how they repay him…

      Maybe Newsom can see if he can blame this on PG&E then bail them out afterward.

    Is it a multi species pandemic yet? I missed 2020-2021 so bad. I loved not being around people.

    I don’t think the impacts of this are being fully realized yet…like the stores here (Sacramento) are low on eggs, the zoos have taken the birds off exhibit, and I live next to a large wildlife preserve that’s a huge bird migration path and they just like haven’t been there this year. Those giant starling clouds were an annual thing for a week or so and they just didn’t happen this year. It really feels like there’s a LOT less small birds; the big herons and stuff are still visible, but like walking the preserve is noticeably quieter.

      There are currently 61 active infections in humans and 34 of those are in California. Our poultry farms have been devastated with millions of birds killed.

      They’re as (corpo)left as Texas is right.

      To the same extremes, just the opposite direction.
