I was not prepared for how graphic that was

Garrison is the host for both episodes, and Mia is on the first one, and there’s a different guest (AltWatcher?) for the NPS one. Was just listening to these this morning! The Cool Zone peeps do good work

The lines between reality and satire get blurrier by the day

Raw milk should be treated like ice cream - never let it get too warm, unless you’re pasteurizing or boiling it. Jesus Christ, these people.

I have multiple friends with dairy goats, and I end up with milk a lot of the time. They’ve always told me it was raw, and I never was too worried about it, because they’re small operations and I trust their hygiene practices. Hell, I’ve milked the goats myself! And I went on for a few years happily drinking raw milk and making raw goat cheese. And if I ever shared it, I would tell people it was raw, but I never thought much about it.

Somewhere along the way, over the past few years, I noticed that conservatives were getting more and more into raw milk - the same folks who were really into ivermectin and the anti-vax stuff. And you know what I did? I read more about the risks, learned how easy home pasteurization is, and started fucking pasteurizing my milk. It’s not hard, and it’s better to be safe than sorry.

Plus, I want to be the cool friend who knows how to make their own cheese, not the weird conspiracy theorist talking about how they’re oppressed by the FDA.

It hasn’t happened yet, but I’m pretty sure they’ll disown me whenever I tell them I’m trans.
