Happy (almost) World Hippo Day!

Hi People of Tumbler! World Hippopotamus Day, February 15th, is coming up soon, and I wanted to share this super dope holiday with you! I have been celebrating World Hippo Day since I was a kid, and it’s a day that’s a lot of things for a lot of people. Many who celebrate of use the day to learn about the majestic nature of nature’s best creature: the hippopotamus, and to others it's a day to advocate for hippos, or an anti-Valentine’s Day of sorts. To me, it is all of these things, and it is also a day to spread hippo joy. Every year I try to spend the day handing out tiny hippos to random people, and it seems to make them happy. I think that hippos would be happy to know that they make people happy.

This year, World Hippopotamus Day falls during a charity livestream fundraiser called the Project for Awesome (AKA the P4A) that is held by some really cool internet people like Hank and John Green. The P4A raises money for organizations like Save the Children and Partners in Health that work hard to decrease world suck, and just generally make the world a better place. Due to the US gov's pause in USAID, the global fight against preventable & treatable diseases like TB, HIV, & Malaria is suffering a huge setback and now more than ever Nonprofits dedicated to fighting these diseases need support. More info on the P4A and fighting global inequity can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBjQgizWRBA . If you are able to please look into donating to these wonderful causes or to the P4A, or spread awareness about them. It's what the hippos would want. Project for Awesome Website Link

In celebration of World Hippopotamus Day I am posting some world hippo day crafts that you and yours can enjoy and use to spread some World Hippo Day joy. Imma be tagging all of these posts #World Hippo Day . I hope all yall have a wonderful World Hippopotamus Day and a great P4A. DFTBA

*And just in case you were wondering, Hippos are susceptible to Bovine tuberculosis (bTB), because everything ties back to TB https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33423384/

From the people who brought you Squid Facts, Horseshoe Crab is Calling

I don't know about you, but I need a little joy right now. Earlier this month, I was walking down the street in my neighborhood and I came upon this:

I was like "Wow. Ok. Yes I AM picking that up." I couldn't resist! What an enticing strategy!

I had to try it myself.

After kicking the idea around with a few friends, I landed on "Horseshoe Crab is calling", and we updated to the modern iOS. Maybe i should have kept the green and red, I'm not sure.

Who the hell wouldn't be intrigued by this?!

(P.S. shout out to Basic Barbie, another street artist in the city who is unapologetically femme in a predominantly male scene. We love Basic Barbie.)

The link on the bottom goes to a list of actionable things people can do to slow climate change. Very curious to see how many people visit the page.

If you would like the print file so you can get business cards printed yourself to pepper around your natural habitat, DM me. Happy to share.

"What if my friends secretly hate me?" What if they pray for you before bed? What if they hear a song come on and it makes them immediately think of you? What if when times are hard for them, they close their eyes and think of the memories they've shared with you? What if they study your face closely to see how you're feeling? What if they listen to your stories? What if they smile when you text them first? What if

huge carrot recall affecting the united states and canada due to shiga toxin-producing e. coli

november 16, 2024

U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Grimmway Farms Recalls Organic Whole and Select Organic Baby Carrots That May Be in Consumers’ Homes Due to Potential E. coli Contamination

Grimmway Farms has issued a recall of select organic whole carrots and organic baby carrots that should no longer be in grocery stores but m

this recall may expand. see below for details.

Grimmway Farms has issued a recall of select organic whole carrots and organic baby carrots that should no longer be in grocery stores but may be in consumers' refrigerators or freezers. These products may have been contaminated with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) O121:H19. E. coli O121:H19 is a bacterium that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, elderly people, and those with a weakened immune system. Some infections can cause severe bloody diarrhea conditions, such as a hemolytic uremic syndrome, or the development of high blood pressure, chronic kidney disease, and neurologic problems. Symptoms include severe stomach cramps, diarrhea, fever, nausea, and/or vomiting. The incubation period for E. coli O121:H19 in humans can range from 24 hours to as much as ten days. The average incubation period is 3 to 4 days.

The following recalled products were shipped directly to retail distribution centers nationwide in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada: - Organic whole carrots, which do not have a best-if-used-by date printed on the bag, but were available for purchase at retail stores from August 14 through October 23, 2024, - Organic baby carrots with best-if-used-by-dates ranging from September 11 through November 12, 2024.

formatting on tumblr is difficult, please see the FDA outbreak investigation page for the affected ranges of best-by dates for baby carrots, and pictures of the affected carrots.

as of time of posting, the main FDA recall page and the CDC investigation page have an error and do not list Kroger or LIDL baby carrots, while the FDA outbreak investigation page does. I am assuming that this means they are part of the recall and that this error will probably be fixed soon.

the recalled carrots are thought to be associated with an E. coli O121:H19 outbreak. 39 illnesses, 15 hospitalizations, and one death have been linked to this outbreak so far.

as always, these numbers are expected to be lower than the true number of illnesses and deaths, and will likely rise. not everyone seeks medical attention, and even when all testing and reporting procedures go as smoothly as possible, it can take weeks to officially link an illness to an outbreak.

<em>E. coli</em> Infection (<em>Escherichia coli</em>)

E. coli Outbreak Linked to Organic Carrots

Page describes an outbreak of E. coli linked to organic carrots.

U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Outbreak Investigation

Do not eat or serve multiple brands of recalled bagged organic whole and baby carrots supplied by Grimmway Farms. FDA’s investigation is ong

noteworthy from the FDA investigation page:

FDA is working with the firm to determine the source of contamination and whether additional products are affected. This advisory will be updated as information becomes available.

in short, there is a possibility this contamination may affect more than just the recalled carrots. keep up to date with these pages to stay on top of this outbreak.

the recalled carrots are no longer on shelves. but if they are in your fridge or freezer, destroy or discard them and clean anything they may have touched.

do NOT eat these carrots! this strain of e. coli is dangerous and at least one person has died.

if you think you got sick in relation to this outbreak, please seek medical attention, even if just to get your illness officially associated with this outbreak.

see when people try and nitpick me because i call my dog "my dog" when it's technically "the family dog".......well first of all i still call my brother "my brother" and not "the family boy". although maybe that should change. second of all sorry i'm still thinking about the family boy. btw i fell asleep while making this post last night and i think you can tell
