We have screens in Greece, they're just not installed everywhere. As a tip though, running the air conditioner also keeps insects away and dazed.

I continue to run into people that are confused as to why Americans have screens on our windows and it’s really quite simple.

Yeah, halfway through and I suck ass at this. I only recognised one thing and it's because an account I follow has it as the profile pic.

I made a quiz about some of my favorite animals :)

🇨🇦🇺🇸recall of 1.7 million U and U+ window air conditioners sold as dozens of different models under several different brand names due to mold issues. injuries reported🇺🇸🇨🇦

brand names include midea, comfort aire, danby, frigidaire, insignia, keystone, LBG products, mr. cool, perfect aire, and sea breeze.

🇺🇸US recall link🇺🇸 - 🇨🇦canada recall link🇨🇦

quotes are from US link.

Hazard: Pooled water in the air conditioners can fail to drain quickly enough, which can lead to mold growth. Mold exposure poses risks of respiratory issues or other infections to some consumers. Remedy: Refund Repair Recall Date: June 05, 2025 Units: About 1.7 million (In addition, about 45,900 were sold in Canada)

emphasis mine. these air conditioners are a breeding ground for mold due to a major design defect.

This recall involves U and U+ Window Air Conditioners made by Midea and sold in brand names including Midea, Comfort Aire, Danby, Frigidaire, Insignia, Keystone, LBG Products, Mr. Cool, Perfect Aire and Sea Breeze. The air conditioners are designed to fit in windows. They were sold in three sizes of cooling power: 8,000, 10,000 and 12,000 BTU. The air conditioners are white and measure about 22 inches wide and 14 inches high. The brand name is printed on the units. The model number can be found on a label on the front right side of the unit when facing the air conditioner. They were sold with remote controls and can be controlled by a mobile app.

emphasis mine. there are a lot of these. the wording seems to imply other brand names may be affected, but are not (yet?) part of this recall.

Consumers with the recalled air conditioners should immediately contact Midea for a free repair or a full or prorated refund, which will be based on the purchase date or date of manufacture. Consumers who want a refund will be requested to send the unit back to Midea using a free shipping label or submit a photograph showing that they cut the unplugged power cord of the unit to receive a refund. Consumers who want a repair should contact Midea to arrange for a technician to install a new drain plug or send consumers a repair kit that includes a new drain plug and bubble level, depending on the model. Consumers who continue using the air conditioners while awaiting a repair should visit www.MideaUrecall.expertinquiry.com for instructions on how to inspect their unit prior to continuing use.

you can get a refund or a repair, and you should do so immediately. temperatures are heating up in the northern hemisphere and the manufacturer does not want you using these units until they get fixed, or at least until you inspect it for mold while waiting for it to be fixed.

and even if you do not have one of these, and you have a window air conditioner or any other appliance that might be able to accumulate mold, this is a great time to check for mold anyway. just because it came up, you know?

Incidents/Injuries: The firm is aware of at least 152 reports of mold in the air conditioners, including 17 reports of consumers experiencing symptoms such as respiratory infections, allergic reactions, coughing, sneezing and/or sore throats from mold exposure. Sold At: Costco, Menards, Home Depot, Best Buy and other stores nationwide and online at Midea.com, Amazon.com, Costco.com, Menards.com, HomeDepot.com, Lowes.com, Walmart.com, BJs.com, BestBuy.com and other websites from March 2020 through May 2025 for between $280 and $500.

some emphasis mine. these were sold nationwide in the US and in canada. and these fuckers get expensive!!!

below the cut is the list of recalled units, sorted by brand name.

SE04E14 Of Late I Think of Cliffordville

cell bio professor closed out today's lecture on free-radical oxidation in mitochondria and programmed cell death by saying "you've probably all seen those commercials for fruit juice that says it's got antioxidants, which are said to prevent this sort of thing from happening, or at least slow it down. well, they don't work. this is an inevitable fact of life— this process that lets us live is also the thing that kills us, and it's why all of us will die someday. there's no escaping that. it's been with us since the dawn of eukaryotic cells; our pact with mitochondria is to the death. anyway, enjoy the rest of your friday, and remember, exam four is next week!"

I'm not going to bother reading the article to find out if this actually works or if anyone is actually trying it. I'm just happy we as a society are showing proper reverence for Orbs.

why is this framed all cutesy??

A teaspoon of honey also works for relief.

I'm ill again. And once again, it's my throat. While I've been having lots of flare-ups in the past two years, I've never had a sore throat as bad as the one I have currently. It's like my throat is super swollen and on fire, and even a spray with an anaesthetic doesn't help. I'm feeling so down about it, I've just recovered from April antibiotics and what was after them...also, medications are so expensive, and my budget is super incredibly tight (again, like never before).
