Our "Be Carful What You With For, You May Get It" segment was about former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy making history. We talked about Trump disclosing American defense secrets and compared that to a Senator who'd done something similar in 1943. We speculated on which one of them would cost more lives. We talked about the possibility that these deluges could be our future climate for late Summer/early Autumn; we also mentioned the sea lion who swam out of her flooded pool in the Central Park Zoo and took a little excursion around the area in the heavy rain. We talked about the pandemic death rate getting higher, and Pickles of the North talked about the winners of the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine who'd worked together for years to develop mRNA based vaccines.

Most search engines exist not to help you find things but to allow the companies that provide the search service to data mine your searches and then sell your search history to clients so they can spam you. An alternative to getting your privacy compromised is to use the DuckDuckGo search engine.

• If you'd like to keep your browsing history private you can get yourself the Tor Browser. Using the DuckDuckGo search engine is automatic with the Tor Browser, and by accessing the DuckDuckGo search engine from the Tor Browser you are pretty much guaranteed that no one can trace searches back to you.
