More of a heads up than a lecture, I *politely talked* with workers during a slow time. Warned them about the risks of raw milk and how we will soon be testing for it.
Honestly felt embarrassed and didn’t think anything about it.
A week and a half later.. they no longer stock raw milk products!

I knew my Co-Op in Tallahassee sold raw milk and I did some digging. This farm (I have visited personally) is selling raw milk in BULK to mainly food deserts.
Note the microscopic disclaimer on the label. I couldn’t see without zoom.

🧵 thread on helping your community minimize H5N1 risk:
H5N1 was detected in Tallahassee wastewater. Knew this from wild bird cases since 2022 + sampling at farms
Specifically seeing cow remains strewn about on farms—something I’ve never seen in 3 gens of my family raising cattle in FL.

Stevie Nicks talks masking and rejecting mask shaming !! www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...
![Interviewer: Where do you prefer that I sit?
Stevie Nicks: You're good right there, as long as you don't think you have Covid.
Interviewer: No, I don't.
Stevie Nicks: Well, thank goodness we're done [touring] for a while, so I can go home and not have a mask on all the time. As a singer with asthma, I fucking hate the masks, but I wear them. People give you dirty looks.
I dare anybody to give me a dirty look. I would just say, "Hey, you know what? I'm Stevie Nicks. And if I get sick, my entire thing goes down. Forty families are out of work. So that's why I have a mask on, asshole."
I can't get [Covid] again. I mean, I'm old, so I'll only be around for another 15 years. But you guys have another 30 or 40 years, so you should think about it.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hdawzc4bxkp56orwiht5kedq/bafkreiaf7few5qqn4pm6mlx6irdz6nw5wswkpuebabpjt6mifygeuegw6u@jpeg)

Trying to find Native/NDN community on here! So I’ll boost a must-see documentary of Wet'suwet'en Land Defenders taking on illegal Canadian loggers, oil pipelines, and land grabbers

My last sample site for the week:
Cow-Pig (shit) Pond where all the livestock waste makes its way into the water.
I upped my PPE game before canoeing into the middle and collecting samples.
This is N FL. Cow country. And undoubtedly where H5N1 is quietly spread thanks to no testing.
