Anger over Scottish salmon farm inspections amid 35m unexpected fish deaths https://www.theguardian.com/business/2026/feb/05/more-than-35m-unexpected-salmon-deaths-at-scottish-farms-sparks-outcry

I enjoy salmon just everyone else.
But today, I reached peak Salmin love with what I had on the fridge:
Smoked salmon, and pico de gallo made with purple onions, tomato, jalapeño, capers, lime and red vinegar.

"Is tyre pollution causing mass deaths in vulnerable salmon populations?"

Periodic reminder: When people actually _study_ social media, they come to realize that even the most so called "echo chamber" actually tends to be MORE diverse than the communities they'd otherwise inhabit.
The tribal, self-reinforcing social boundaries that reject new information are actually an artifact of _contextless exposure to people with different points of view_. And accelerated by hostility.
In short: echo chambers don't exist. Insularity is a response to disrupted community norm formation by slamming too many people together without context for each other. It's not the social media algorithms directly doing it. It's the social response to those algorithms.
