Venezuela's Cardon Oil refinery, the country's second largest at 310,000 barrels per day, just unexpectedly exploded and caught fire, forcing a full shutdown. The fire started at a gas line connecting the refinery's diesel hydrotreater and halted the whole plant, including the boilers. #ETTD

The Biden admin stopped using pentobarbital for executions, saying it could cause “unnecessary pain and suffering.” This year the Trump admin reversed course.

Some of the most notorious failed executions have involved prisoners whose bodies were failing them. Take Doyle Hamm, a terminally ill cancer patient. In 2018, prison officials spent >2 hours looking for a vein, possibly puncturing his bladder before giving up.

When concerns about execution teams come to light it’s largely by accident. State secrecy laws often shield the names of execution team members, so it’s almost impossible to know whether they have a troubled history. The laws conceal info about the drugs used & their effects.

Hunter S. Thompson was an asshole. George Carlin was an asshole. Mick Jagger is an asshole. Bob Dylan is an asshole. Richard Nixon was a noxious, aberrant, venomous snake who made undermining movements his mission. Try to differentiate an asshole and a snake to boomers. They know the difference.
