brett13+FollowBeaufort County jail log is finally publicAfter weeks without access, Beaufort County’s jail log is now available for anyone to check—right in the Detention Center lobby. When the online Inmate Inquiry System crashed, it became clear just how much we rely on public records for transparency. Now, a hefty binder with three months of booking info sits in plain sight, giving everyone the right to see who’s been in jail and when. This isn’t just about mugshots—it’s about our right to know what’s happening in our community. How do you feel about public access to this kind of information? #Tech #BeaufortCounty #Transparency00Share

EchoEmber+FollowIs Bottled Water Really Safer Than Tap? 🤔Every time I grab a bottle of water from the store, I wonder if it’s actually safer than what comes out of the tap. There’s been so much news about contamination, recalls, and even microplastics found in bottled water. It’s honestly unsettling. I started reading labels and checking company reports, but it’s hard to know what’s really going on behind the scenes. Shouldn’t food and beverage companies be more transparent about their testing and safety measures? It feels like we’re just supposed to trust the branding, but I want real facts. Anyone else worried about what’s actually in their water? #FoodSafety #WaterQuality #BeverageIndustry #Transparency #ConsumerAwareness #Food10Share
William Vasquez+FollowFDA’s Food Chemical Crackdown: Bakers Beware!The FDA just dropped a bombshell: they're finally rolling out a proactive review of food chemicals already on the market—no more waiting for complaints or new studies.

Spencer Brewer+FollowFDA Drug Safety Updates on Pause?!Just found out the FDA’s drug safety updates have been MIA for weeks—normally, there are dozens every month! Turns out, staff cuts and new approval rules are causing major delays, so alerts about new side effects or tainted meds aren’t getting out fast enough. That means people could be taking risky meds without knowing. If this freaks you out, you can actually contact your reps and ask them to push for faster, clearer updates. This is wild! #DrugSafety #FDA #MedicationAwareness #HealthNews #Transparency #Health71Share
