A picture of a small blue spray bottle loosely zip-tied to a bottle of thuricide bt, a spore that interrupts the digestive tract of caterpillars and hornworms. The bottle is zip-tied in such a way as to be able to unscrew and pull out the spray “head”, thus detaching the bottle from the insecticide. This means the bottle and the chemical used in that bottle Stay together, always. Safety instructions, dosage, etc. Will stay with the bottle and there won’t be cross contamination with other chemicals, which could be hazardous.

A screencap of a copilot chat conversation (I had asked it for the right syntax for reg_exp.), which says "Copilot SQL Server does not have native REG_EXP support like Oracle/MySQL, so you can't use a true regex function directly in a WHERE clause. However you can achieve the same result using a like pattern with a character range." This is false. REGEXP (no underscore) has been available in MSSQL for many versions.

She claims she’s been the victim of sexual violence, yet she is trying to ride the coattails Of adjudicated rapist, trump. She is often unhinged on the house floor and is not fit for any position Of power.
