The cyclospora outbreak has reached 7,400 cases across 9 states. The FDA just recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination. Screwworm cases continue to rise. And we’ve just surpassed 2,300 measles cases — breaking 2025’s record. “Make America Healthy Again.”

A parasitic illness that causes explosive diarrhea is spreading throughout the USA. On the bright side, maybe more Americans will read the news while they're shitting their brains out on the toilet.

The 14th Amendment, ratified July 9, 1868: “All persons born or naturalized in the U.S., and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the U.S. and of the State wherein they reside.” This includes U.S.-born children of immigrants, as reaffirmed in 1898 by SCOTUS. Remember this.

It's not some grand conspiracy. Demand for physical media decreased and favored, thin and light computers with no room for an optical drive. Demand for removable storage on phones decreased and favored thin, light, waterproof phones with large built-in storage capacity.
Screenshot of a tweet from @GamewithDave which reads as follows: 

They removed CD/DVD drives from devices.
They made physical media harder to buy and use.
They removed expandable storage from phones.
They pushed us into streaming subscriptions.
They made always-online normal.
They made unlimited internet necessary.
Then slowly raised the price of everything.

Ownership quietly became renting.
