Watch: drone footage of ultra-toxic chemicals billowing out of a week-long tire fire in Texas

I guess maybe we DO need the EPA.
Because, fighting tire fires is really hard.
Like reforming healthcare and taxes. And the Chinese/North Korean relationship. I bet building a wall is gonna be harder than we thought too.

Gadget designers, please stop being so left-hander hostile | The Verge

Why design a device that becomes completely useless when put in the opposite hand? Seriously. You are making something to be used in one hand. Not everyone is right handed. Some people don’t even have a right hand. Exactly how many people were in your focus groups when you were testing your design? Yeah…That’s what I thought.

Canada: Long-Awaited Cannabis Legalization Bill Introduced – High Times

#News420 It’s happening, right up north, eh.

“On Thursday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau introduced legislation to legalize the recreational use of cannabis in Canada, following through on a campaign pledge and ending a long wait by advocates and entrepreneurs.

The new law would allow adults 18 and over to possess or share up to 30 grams of dried herbaceous cannabis and to purchase cannabis or cannabis oil from retailers, to be regulated at the provincial level. Canadians will also be allowed to grow up to four plants per residence for personal use and to prepare legal cannabis products at home. Cannabis-infused edibles are to be available for sale after the regulatory framework is developed and brought into force.”

CradleTune

I’m not recommending this product or anything, because I haven’t actually used it.
But it looks like a cool tool for quick string changes and tuneups. #guitar #gadgets

United Airlines removes couple traveling to their own wedding from plane

Wow. WTF are these United employees thinking? And excuse me for thinking here, but did anyone think to wake up the person who was in their seat? I mean, who sleeps on a plane DURING BOARDING? We’re they in the wrong seat or did United sell the seat twice? Don’t they have to put their seat in the full upright position and buckle up in a minute anyway?

Kelly: Marijuana ‘not a factor’ in drug war

#News420
An interesting perspective for a republican cabinet member. The war on drugs shouldn’t be about arresting users, but rather treatment programs, with law enforcement focusing on the elimination of trafficking and production. Let’s hope he talks some sense into that idiot Attorney General Sessions who still believes the bullshit Nancy Reagan fried our brains with in the 80s #GOP #EndTheWarOnWeed #LegalizeIt

Get Outta My Head! | Jamie Gray – April 16, 2017 at 12:01PM

Our government of, by and for the almighty corporate dollar, is guilty of economic terrorism. Washington bureaucrats choose to employ weapons of class warfare, denying healthcare, education and food to our citizens, but justify paying for some really expensive ammo in a never-ending undeclared illegal war abroad. Just a few less $800 million dollar shells could end education problems in our poorest communities, and make sure everyone gets to see a doctor whenever they need to and gets their medicine whether they can afford it or not.
THAT’S how you put America first, President Donald J. Trump, By making sure EVERYONE in America is doing well…Not just the white country club crowd. #AmericaMatters #trump

NASA photos capture a strange new crack in a massive Greenland glacier and we’re all probably doomed

Wow. Could you imagine if the ice shelf in Greenland broke off into the sea, causing sea levels to rise suddenly, resulting in the ice shelf in Antarctica breaking off? Sure, it’s a “what if” with no actual science behind it, but i bet #MythBusters would find it #plausible.
