tl;dr: "Avoid the CDC website, [esp.] anything on vaccines, reproductive health, environmental science, or health equity." Flu & wastewater data are still accurate, bc they're "still largely under the control of states and CDC scientists."

One of CDC’s final blows. And what it means for you.
Where to find trusted health information now?

On second thought - maybe Satan came to earth from 2007 - 2021 and needed something to drink

Jolly Rancher Cinnamon Cherry Fire Soda (2007-2021): This deep red soda combined a cherry, almost cough syrup-esque flavor with the hot cinnamon flavor of an Atomic Fireball. Part of a line of sodas based on Jolly Rancher hard candies

Most potential pet owners consider things like breeding, size, coat, intelligence, trainability, and temperament. Often overlooked is the crucially important element of aerodynamics, which can greatly affect your gas mileage, raising the overall cost of ownership significantly.

The difference between cats and dogs is that when you have a dog you have a pet 100% of the time, and when you have a cat you have a pet somewhere between 20-50% of the time, only, and this is the important bit, you do not get any input on their schedule
