埃及13歲少年跟風TikTok「生吃泡麵」挑戰猝死，醫師解析：為何消化問題會短時間奪命？

青少年模仿TikTok挑戰，生食三包泡麵後劇烈腹痛嘔吐，不幸身亡。調查人員追蹤該款泡麵的銷售點並對庫存進行抽樣，檢測結果排除了包裝污染或儲存不當的可能性。這起事件與社群媒體上「生吃泡麵」的挑戰有關，這項挑戰鼓勵參與者咀嚼撒有調味料的乾麵條。醫師表示，重點在於吃進去會不會超過身體的上限，跟幾包沒有太大關係。

Regular people don't need environmental protection or clean water; we don't need vaccines, we don't need a 1st Amendment, we don't need good schools, we don't need protection from our adversaries, we don't need FEMA after a hurricane, a flood, or a fire.

That’s what both MAGA Republicans and “influencers” who tell you both parties are the same want you to believe.

No, New Zealand does not need nuclear power.

We have plenty of cheap, safe renewable energy sources at the ready. Chief among them offshore wind power which this muppet is pushing away in favour of seabed mining.

Also, awful to see him ramping up the climate denial, racism, and xenophobic discourse.
They might smell election time coming.

"One of the most important services required of [yellow pigments] was to imitate the appearance of gold. Another of their chief functions was to modify the qualities of greens and, to a less extend, of reds. Of all their uses, perhaps the least important was to represent yellow things."

The battle for fair representation isn’t confined to Texas and California.

This week, the Mississippi Supreme Court ordered the legislature to redraw its districts after finding the maps illegally diluted Black voting power.

That legal victory is more than regional;
it proves the fight for democracy is winnable.
Resistance yields results.

If Mississippi can deliver a win for Black voters, every state can
—if we commit, organize, and refuse silence in the face of injustice.

Here’s the truth they fear:
we can win.

Trump and his GOP allies are rigging the system because they’re losing.

They’re stealing seats because they can’t win them fairly.

They’re locking doors because they can’t face voters honestly.

But their desperation is our opportunity.

⭐️California voters hold the key November 4.
🔥Your vote on Proposition 50 could erase Trump’s theft in Texas.

Polls show this race is winnable, but only if we fight

From New York to California, the Resistance Rises

They tried to shut us down; instead, they unleashed a rebellion.

^{Jennifer Canter (The Digital Drumbeat by DemCast)}

Authoritarianism of the kind that Americans are used to condemning abroad has become increasingly normal in the United States.

The cult of personality was apparent as Donald Trump’s cabinet convened on Wednesday in a marathon session that could have embarrassed even a seasoned strongman, providing for three hours and 17 minutes of fawning television coverage.

There was Steve Witkoff, the president’s top envoy and negotiator, standing up in the increasingly gilded Cabinet Room, offering praise that could have made even Vladimir Putin blush.
“There’s only one thing I wish for
– that the Nobel committee finally gets its act together and realizes that you are the single finest candidate since this Nobel award was ever talked about,”
he said to applause from secretaries of state, defense and other top cabinet officials.

Or was it Stephen Miller on Fox News in effect criminalising the opposition to Trump and calling Chicago a “killing field” despite controverting facts.
“The Democrat party is not a political party, it is a domestic extremist organisation,” he said in a strident tone,
claiming that the party was devoted “exclusively to the defence of hardened criminals, gangbangers and illegal alien killers and terrorists”.

Was it the president calling, on social media, for the arrest of a wealthy financier and his son for their support for civil society?
“George Soros, and his wonderful Radical Left son, should be charged with RICO because of their support of Violent Protests, and much more, all throughout the United States of America,” he wrote on Truth Social.

Or perhaps it was the revocation of Secret Service protection for his electoral rival Kamala Harris,
or the FBI raid on the home of John Bolton, his former national security adviser, who has become an outspoken critic of the president’s national security agenda.
Or was it in the commonplace nature of a raid outside an elementary school in Mt Pleasant in Washington DC, where police staked out a school with a large Spanish-speaking population in what became just another immigration raid in America.

Don Moynihan, a political scientist and professor at the University of Michigan, wrote this week that “today, America is a competitive authoritarian system, with a rapidly increasing emphasis on the authoritarian part.”

The checklist to consolidate power, he wrote, includes efforts to control the government bureaucracy,
the military, internal security, the legal system, civil society, higher education, the media and elections.
The pursuit of those aims had been “systematic”, he wrote.
