Generally avoid heavy meals. And last, but far from least, hyponatremia is a thing. Hyponatremia happens when you sweat a lot, replace the lost fluids, but don't replace the lost salt. During a heatwave, you need to increase your sodium intake. You can do this with sports drinks, salt tablets...

doing my yearly PSA that the majority of flower arrangements contain flowers that are toxic to pets and that certain plants - especially lilies - are so toxic that the pollen being picked up by a breeze could be enough to kill a cat. cross-check the ASPCA's list here! www.aspca.org/pet-care/ani...

Toxic and Non-Toxic Plantswww.aspca.org Our handy list contains plants that have been reported as having systemic effects on animals and/or intense effects on the gastrointestinal tract.

Just had to listen to a ~time management~ seminar at work based on "When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing" that implied seeking medical treatment in the afternoon will get you killed... Is this on your list @ifbookspod.bsky.social @michaelhobbes.bsky.social ?

PG&E charges more for power between 4 and 9pm, encouraging people at home to use power after 9pm.

California and its grid operator are grappling with a strange reality: There is so much solar on the grid that, on sunny spring days when there’s not as much demand, electricity prices go negative. Gigawatts of solar are “curtailed” — essentially, thrown away.

Is the ION NWSL broadcast quality terrible or is it just my over-the-air reception during a thunderstorm....

The "protocol" is just encouraging them

Take a lot of work to be the unsympathetic side of a rivalry with literally the United States of America but Mexico fans have done the impossible

Washington also didn't give advance warning before crossing the Delaware for the attack on Trenton and here we are.

The Telegraph reporting that Kensington Palace weren't given advance warning of Stephen Colbert's Kate jokes does kind of raise the question as to whether they honestly expected to be, and if so, why

Get yourself this app, folks. There's a ton of free WoSo available.

PSA: The NWSL+ Roku app is only find-able by spelling out National Women’s Soccer League (searching NWSL is futile). 🤦🏻
