So i got more curious about #NorfolkSouthernDerailment @nscorp Southern after seeing them post a "Factcheck" article from USA today and on the USA today article at the bottom said it was paid for by a grant from FACEBOOK!
Last year, Norfolk Southern reported profits of $3.2 billion, a record for the company. Rather than investing in infrastructure, let alone improving the conditions for workers, the company has spent $18 billion over the past five years in
stock buybacks and dividends, that is, handouts to investors. nscorp.com/content/nscorp…

The snow is weird. It’s now 0 degrees C and the snow isn’t melting. It’s subliming. It’s not unusual for snow to sublime (evaporate) but it usually does it when it’s sunny and it doesn’t smell like plasticky gasoline when it does. 5 mins outside and I’m super dizzy and nauseous.
Sublimation means when a solid like snow turns into a gas without going through a liquid state. So is this snow off-gassing? Sure smells like it. Even my partner had to go lie down.
I left a jar out to collect a sample the other day but I just put the lid on. If this has vinyl chloride in it, can I assume it won’t leak out of a mason gar? @CuzzinSnooter thoughts?

What is going on in East Palistine, Ohio?

Why are journalists covering the story being arrested?

Praying for the communities affected by the apparently toxic gases (dead chickens) and toxic runoff (dead fish).
