it’s such a crazy story how I ended up here

so before I even left the island, Ashanti and I had a conversation about the Indo Expo being in Chicago in September of 2020. After confirming that they did indeed have a the world’s most complete T-Rex on display at the Field Museum it was agreed we would meet up in the fall and check out one of my favorite mysteries- who killed the dinosaurs?

that was well before a global pandemic canceled everybody’s best intentions.

then one day someone said

“we should go to Washinton DC”

So we did.

we ended up on a crazy cross country mission which took us not only to DC but to NYC and Philadelphia! oh what a trippy trip it was. anyways after we left Ashanti in Philly, the Ninjaneer pointed us towards the setting 🌞 sun.

then one morning I woke up in the front seat and Ryan asked

“HOW FAR TO CHICAGO?”

here’s the crazy plot twist though

the museum closed at 5pm but the last admissions are at 4pm according to the google maps we were scheduled to arrive at 3:40 – if nothing went wrong between us and Chicago.

The headlines are ripped right out out from our futuristic collective nightmares.
“thousands of zombie minks rise from the grave”

But if we back away from that sensational attention grabber and look at the actual story, and it’s developments through the month, it is no less disturbing. Oh and the rising from the grave thing- it’s real – but it’s due to gasses in the carcasses and rushed burial techniques. not actual zombies.
but this story is scary enough without those – especially to animal lovers and specifically mink lovers in either Demark or apparently OREGON.

so I’m gonna let the headlines tell the story in a linear fashion and I’ll just try to steer the ship.

So, if you you ever need a nicer way of saying slaughter, use culled.

Cick HERE to read this BBC article from November 5. You need to read it.

but here is an excerpt that I took from the article:

“Coronavirus cases have also been detected in farmed mink in the Netherlands and Spain since the pandemic began in Europe.

But cases are spreading fast in Denmark – 207 mink farms in Jutland are affected – and at least five cases of the new virus strain were found. Twelve people had become infected, the authorities said.

Prime Minister Frederiksen described the situation as “very, very serious”. Danish police and army personnel will help to carry out the mass cull.

Ms Frederiksen cited a government report which said the mutated virus had been found to weaken the body’s ability to form antibodies, potentially making the current vaccines under development for Covid-19 ineffective.”

Okay so then they killed at least ten million mink – and then found out it was against procedure- and now they are halfway through it.

But here’s some good stuff I pulled from their article:

“At least 10 million Danish mink have already been slaughtered, after farmers acted on a government order that has since been retracted because it broke the law.

The fate of the animals, some of which were killed in such haste that there were eye-witness reports of thousands of mink carcasses strewn across a public motorway, provides a graphic reminder of the real-world consequences of a string of political missteps in Denmark that could have global consequences.

The country is grappling with a new mutation of the coronavirus found in its mink population. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen says the variant has the potential to derail efforts to develop a Covid vaccine. The only option left to Denmark, she says, is to cull its entire mink population of roughly 17 million animals.”

OK now lets talk about the zombie minks.

Click HERE to read this entire article in the Guardian from November 25.

Here are the best parts of that article, to save you some time.

“It was possible, however, that “small quantities of bacteria may still be trapped in their fur”, he said, adding that it was “never healthy to get close to dead animals, so therefore this is of course something to stay away from”.

Denmark, the world’s largest exporter of mink fur, announced in early November it would cull the country’s more than 15 million mink after discovering a mutated version of the virus that could have jeopardised the effectiveness of future vaccines.

Two weeks later, and in the midst of a political crisis over the legality of its decree, the government concluded that the threat to human vaccines had “very likely been extinguished” in the absence of any further cases of the mutated version.”

Okay so this is where I showed up.

Immediately my first thought was HOLY SMOKES WHAT IF THIS COMES TO OREGON IN A COUPLE MONTHS? That was on Thursday.

Then I wake up to this.

Oregon, Wisconsin, Utah and Michigan are all reporting cases tied to their mink industry and factory fur farms.

Click HERE for the link to the USA Today story.

And here are some of the more pertinent parts of it:

“Oregon Department of Agriculture spokeswoman Andrea Cantu-Schomus declined to say which county the farm is in or how many workers have tested positive, citing federal health privacy rules. The farm has about 12,000 animals, she said. 

Outbreaks in farmed minks have been reported in several U.S. states and countries. Earlier this month Denmark announced it would kill all 17 million of the minks raised there after confirmation that 12 people had been infected with a mutated strain of COVID-19 that had spread from minks to humans. That strain has not been found elsewhere. 

Oregon has the nation’s fourth-largest farmed mink industry, after Wisconsin, Utah and Michigan. All three of those other states have had outbreaks on mink farms. “

Details are scarce, and I will keep this article updated as new information is released.

But I will say this, someday when the human race is finally eliminated. It will mostly likely be from a virus that originated because of the lack of compassion shown to animals all over the planet.

I had to find out if this was a crashed X-Wing

but it looked like it was half a planet away

I still had to know

I mean I knew it was Earth in as much as I think I remember that I was supposed to be on Earth but these days I don’t really take anything for granted

and if I had just showed up you would have never convinced me I was on a blue planet

For what it’s worth scientific consensus (which is always subject to new information) suggests that “Several billion years ago when the planets and the Solar System were formed, scientists believe that Mars was very similar to the Earth, with a substantial atmosphere and a surface partially covered by water. Even today surface fissures are visible on the planet, presumably caused by running water.”

When Craig Doby told me I had Eribaby’s debut in my inbox I was like “ok den show me something hot and I’ll write about it.”

Officially this is another banger from YM The Goer, but it could just as easily been the first single of ol’ girl’s solo album with YM as the feature.

YM sets the scene by building a lyrical stage for Eribaby to shine on. His player lyrics help establish the reason the two of them are even in a video at all- and then you figure out there is some real G shit goin on.

Then Eribaby takes over.

That cool guitar strum over the beat made me want to start rapping my damn self so I was sold from the jump, plus I’m a sucker for any lyrics that involve piranha, Yo throw this one in the whip for sure and keep it hot this winter.

I had no idea what I was in for. We had already had a perfect day visiting Kealakekua Bay and Puʻuhonua o Hōnaunau National Historical Park.

Also known as the City of Refuge, the sanctuary boasts 17 foot thick walls and fresh water pools.

Then we found out about the 1871 trail

one of those days where you feel like an urbansurvivorman

with a dip in Pele’s hot tub

and then finish the day with some rombutons!

They’re also wondering if he admitted to voter fraud with his mention of voting twice on Sunday.

Even if it is for Jesus I don’t think it’s allowed.

“okay well that’s cool but did you vote though?”

and then this was his only response so far

sounds hella fishy

so I’m gonna keep updating this thread as if develops but you can follow if you want right here

here is the craziest part to me. look how few followers Mr.T has. he is arguable the best human on the planet. He only has 233,000 followers.

but he only follows 17 accts

I saved you the trouble

and then all the way at the bottom

I don’t know if it’s unbelievable

or super believable

okay well I’ll update this article

as new stuff develops

The post but did Mr.T vote? appeared first on FlashTown General Store.
