I don’t really understand how “outbreak strains” are identified or tracked, but this if what the linked FDA paper in the article says:

FSIS and public health partners are investigating an outbreak of Lm that currently includes 17 ill people in 13 states. As of June 17, 2025, there have been three reported deaths and one fetal loss associated with this outbreak. The outbreak strain of Lm was isolated from ill people on dates ranging from August 2024 – May 2025. The same outbreak strain was isolated from a routine chicken fettuccine alfredo sample collected by FSIS in a FreshRealm establishment in March 2025. The lot of chicken fettuccine alfredo represented by this sample was held during sampling, destroyed, and never entered commerce. The subsequent investigations at the establishment that produced this product, and into the product ingredients, have not identified the source of contamination. FSIS also used purchase records from two ill people to trace purchased chicken fettuccine alfredo products to FreshRealm establishments. An additional two ill people verbally described chicken fettuccine alfredo products they purchased. FSIS identified products produced by FreshRealm that matched the descriptions during follow-up at the retail stores where they shopped. This investigation is ongoing. FSIS is sharing what is currently known regarding products associated with the outbreak as the agency continues to work with public health partners to identify whether a specific ingredient in the chicken fettucine alfredo may be the source of this strain of Lm.

Pretty sure somebody stabbed that dude and then was like 🤷‍♂️ I guess he was just REALLY upset about the fish being late…?

Mine goes off fish every now and then. Sometimes during these times she will still eat salmon, but not tuna, cod or her freeze dried minor treats.

Other times I have to be careful not to get my hand attacked for not putting the fish dish down fast enough.

The other night she had chicken “stew” for first dinner, reluctantly. When I tried to serve the same flavor for 3am dinner, she sniffed it and then reached out and scratched my leg and yelled at me.

I haven’t gotten rid of that flavor, she may change her mind later.

She’s currently only excited about beef and rabbit flavor. I’m extremely disturbed about canned rabbit, so I hope she starts accepting poultry again soon.

Fun fact, pumpkin purée is the #1 vet recommended cat laxative.

We had plastic in the ‘80s.

Americans call it acetaminophen, the rest of the world calls it paracetamol. It’s Tylenol.

Are you talking about Louisiana or Los Angeles? Both have beaches and malls… I could see there being a lot flags in Louisiana, Los Angeles not so much, unless it’s Memorial Day or 4th of July.

Why though…?

I’m sorry you’re having such a bad time. I don’t think that anyone upvoted you with bad intentions. It seems like you are viewing “Lemmy” as a unified entity rather than a community of varied individuals. There are some very nice people here. There are also some douche bags. There are a few prominent posters that are frequently both of those options in quick succession. I wish I had a solution for you. I hope you find a community where you feel safe and seen.

“Oh shit, Is everyone the literal worst or is my uterus about to violently vomit out it’s lining?” Checks app…. “Ok, but maybe it’s actually both!” 🤨

The pubes look like claws and it makes me uncomfortable. 😳

Generally pissed at him for being a corporate shill who actively harms unsheltered people and takes any opportunity to get a photo op or hot take that he thinks will help his presidential run in 2028, while posing like a smarmy, aging GQ model.

Yeah, it’s a bummer, but displaying the American flag at this point in history is going to make people think you are racist and at least a bit stupid.

Was driving the other day and saw a big American flag in a front yard and thought “well, I guess I know what kind of folks live there…” but as I got closer I saw that the blue section, instead of stars, said FUCK TRUMP. And I was like “oh… you got me!” 👉😎 👉

This is me. I do it anyway, but I do really really hate it. If I’m sitting at a long light waiting to turn left I will turn it off, unless I am the first or last person in line. I also manually turn it off half way through the turn before the steering wheel action turns it off. It’s like someone is drumming their fingers on my skull.

But for merging, lane changing, etc., I always use it.

I don’t agree with it, but I can see where you’re coming from.
