Bluesky has #MakeATerribleComicDay going around so I'm doing it the one way I know how

Dredging up 16 to 18 year old sprites.

This is more effort than I remember it being

Pawsome Ritual 🔥 Speedling for Jeuno

Meet Chinese sports shooter Zhāng Shān, the reason skeet shooting is sex segregated. At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, she dominated the then integrated skeet shooting competition winning Gold, defeating the men. The International Shooting Union banned women for the 1996 Olympics.

US EPA Enforcement & Compliance conducted 3 onsite inspections of Apple's fab facility in 8/2023 + 1/2024. US EPA noted at least *19* potential violations of the RCRA hazardous waste statute.

I just posted US EPA's report for public access. Dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/312oqvretg7yyhfx0ohx4/AGZduVXs0_1geqIyi0NA9nE?rlkey=3aa2tw15ek3trqlbdh7pw9erh&st=e7pg1cpp&dl=0

The US EPA inspector noticed Apple had a 55-gallon container of corrosive liquid chemicals sitting in Apple's "Chemical Bunker," & the container's cap was removed

EPA said: hey Apple, why is that haz waste container left open?

Apple responded: its open so the vapors can vent, you know, so it doesn't explode

EPA said: you need to buy containers designed for these types of chemicals

🧵 In 2020, I nearly died from mysterious industrial chemical exposure at my apartment. Later, in 2023, I discovered my employer was dumping toxic waste into the apartment windows from their Skunkworks semiconductor fab next-door. I tipped off the US EPA, who sent their env cops to raid Apple's plant in Aug of 2023. The US EPA finally released the report of their enforcement inspections & sent me a copy on Friday. 💀 ⬇️

Facing some financial troubles at the mo, so looking to re-home a couple of old OCs if folks are interested?

The worst kind of tech hype is when something is portrayed as inevitable and unstoppable, with criticism or doubt blithely dismissed as "they don't get it".

Just because a giant tech company pours vast amounts of money down a toilet, that doesn't mean the toilet is going to start spewing gold coins into the air.
