‼️ Eine vielzitierte Studie zur Unbedenklichkeit von #Glyphosat wurde 25 Jahre nach Veröffentlichung zurückgezogen.
Laut dem Fachverlag #Elsevier bestehen Zweifel an der Unabhängigkeit der Autoren und der Rolle von #Monsanto.
Die Studie stützte sich ausschließlich auf vom #Hersteller bereitgestellte Daten, andere Forschung wurde ignoriert. Kritiker sehen darin ein Beispiel für mangelhafte #Transparenz in der #Pestizidforschung.

Today was hardly the ideal day to be grodgelling in the dirt like one of Jinian Footseer's gobblemoles, but then today was not the ideal day for the cattle to demolish the garden gatepost. Fortunately, I did have a replacement steel gatepost ready to go in.
You mean they politely pointed out that the post was rotten? 😁
You look happy in the muck!

Imagine having $30,000 worth of #Apple hardware, and your Apple ID account linked to your job… unusable.
That is not a nightmare. It’s reality.
It fathoms me that a 1 Trillion company does not have a department for this kind of situations.

A wide, outdoor shot depicts a body of water with land visible in the distance and along the right side of the frame. The water appears a deep, dark blue, with subtle ripples and waves covering the surface. Along the right side of the frame, a rocky coastline is visible, with buildings and structures clustered atop it. Further in the distance, across the water, are a series of smaller landmasses or islands. The sky is a clear, bright blue with no clouds present.

The image shows a palm tree in front of a tall, light-colored building, viewed from a low angle. The building appears to be a smooth, solid structure with a slightly textured surface. The palm tree is positioned centrally in the frame, its trunk extending upwards and branching out into a canopy of fronds. There are visible wires crossing in front of the building, adding a linear element to the composition. The sky is a pale, muted color, providing a soft backdrop to the scene.

Here's an alt-text description of the image:
The image shows a close-up, overhead view of a weathered wooden platform, likely part of a boardwalk or outdoor structure. The wood is comprised of several planks laid side-by-side, showing visible grain, cracks, and discoloration from age and exposure to the elements. Graffiti is spray-painted across the wood in white, appearing to be a collection of letters and words; the text reads "BROKE SHIT". The bottom left corner of the image shows the lower legs and shoes of a person, wearing blue jeans and dark-colored shoes. To the right of the wooden platform is a patch of gray concrete with small green plants growing along the edge.
