Researchers used electric stoves to treat asthma. It worked.

Led by Dr. Ash Sehgal, a professor at Case Westernโ€™s School of Medicine, researchers recruited families from across the Cleveland and Akron areas where at least one person had asthma. Using funds from the Biden-era Inflation Reduction Act, they replaced gas stoves with electric induction stoves in 91 homes.
And then they did something unprecedented: They studied whether people got less sick after they stopped cooking with gas. It was the first time time scientists had replaced gas ranges with electric ranges and examined the health impacts.

For 72 homes where at least one resident suffered from โ€œpoorly controlled asthma,โ€ the team measured health outcomes before and after the gas-to-electric switch: How often were participants awoken by asthma at night? How much time did they spend wheezing? How much shortness of breath did they experience? Did they need to visit the emergency room? Did they have to stay home from work or school?

Lo and behold: Across every health metric studied, people got better. Not just better, actually โ€” dramatically better.


TL;DR: Get an electric stove

As Sir #TrumpVirus spews #tariffs because he feels that Canada, unlike him, can't perfectly control #nature.

Some may recall the #Toddler #King singing this song before, attacking the other CA (California), He said others are stupid & need to rake the forest floors properly. Perfectly. Like everything he does! Like the reflecting pool, Iran, affordability, 'draining the swamp' [He meant, Treasury]

Clearly he is confused & displacing his wish to put tariffs on Californians, & everyone else. If not obliterate them. So strong. So smart.

Anyone know anything about the Queer pride flag or have a link for more about it? Wikipedia quotes HRC and their explanation only covers some of the colours.

First they came for the people quoting Martin Niemรถller, to argue with them about who the Nazis actually came for first.
And I did not speak out, because I understood Niemรถllerโ€™s point had absolutely nothing to do with which groups were targeted or in what order.

[One of the very few times I agree with an official statement from Iran]

โ€œFor a state that once cast itself as the global champion of order, liberalism, and the war on #terrorism, proudly displaying images of destroyed bridges and #civilian infrastructure has become its only remaining โ€˜victory,โ€™โ€ said Esmaeil Baqaei, a spokesperson for #Iranโ€™s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on Saturday.

โ€œYet with the collapse of every bridge, every tower, and every #civilian facility, it is not merely steel and concrete that is being reduced to #rubble. It is #Americaโ€™s moral standingโ€”along with the entire architecture of #InternationalLaw and the #Civilization claims of the Westโ€”that is crumbling before the worldโ€™s eyes.โ€
