What are the character rules for shouting words? How many letters do you include if a character is shouting? Was 8 Os enough? Too many? Needed more? Is there a comic book author on Bluesky who can advise?

A guy at a pool drinking a fruit-filled cocktail and looking at his phone. A monster is coming out of the pool behind him. The guy doesn't notice, because he is distracted by his phone. His young nephew says, "Uncle Roy, there's a guy." The text reads: Nothing good happens when you're distracted at the pool. Always watch kids at pools and spas.

CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the seller Hefei Ao Ze Trading Co., Ltd. doing business as Top magnets, of China. Top magnets has not responded to the Notice of Violation.

The figures’ arms and legs with magnets can detach when pulled. The toy sets contain stronger than permitted magnets that fit within CPSC’s small parts cylinder and violate the mandatory standard for toys posing a risk of serious injury or death if ingested by children.

There has been one lawsuit alleging that the product caused a drowning fatality. CPSC urges consumers to stop using the full-face snorkel masks and immediately dispose of them. Do not sell or give away these hazardous full-face snorkel masks.

Field Life, of China, the seller, has not responded to CPSC’s requests for information or to recall the product. CPSC has received reports from 5 consumers who had trouble breathing, felt light-headed or lost consciousness while using the product.

05.03.2026 19:25 πŸ‘ 14 πŸ” 2 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

The mask can cause consumers to experience labored breathing, causing loss of consciousness or excess fluid in the lungs that can lead to drowning. In addition, the mask can give rise to increased levels of carbon dioxide which can exacerbate the difficulty of breathing in the mask.

A calm forest. Ants are carrying various consumer products into the ground. The text reads: ants don't take care of unsafe products. You need SaferProducts.gov! Report and search for unsafe products 24/7. No ants!

This National Consumer Protection Week, our message is clear. We take care of unsafe products - not the ants.

Two guys looking at a scooter made out of paper towel rolls and castor wheels. One guy says to the other, β€œWhat do we have here?” The other guy replies, β€œMy luxury scooter.” The text reads: Meanwhile, in a time of suspiciously low-cost products being sold online… When you buy online, buy from reputable sellers. If the price seems too good to be true, the product might not be authentic or original, and may be unsafe. If you have a problem with a product or want to return or exchange it, look for the β€œsold by” information.

Three giant moths with glowing eyes approaching a human holding a flashlight. The moon rises behind them. A guy named Ted safely rides an ATV away from them. The text reads: Ted wasn't sure how he ended up at the Visiting of the moths, but he was sure glad he wore the proper gear: gloves, goggles, boots, long-sleeve shirt, pants and a helmet.

A very big pill the size of a microwave sitting on a living room coffee table. A pet dog on a couch looks concerned. The text reads: If only it was this easy to spot loose medicine. You would never leave it lying around. Unfortunately, medicine is small and easy to lose. Make sure medicines and other poisons are locked up out of sight and reach of kids.
