I once accidentally bought pepper spray I forgot was in my bag through TSA.

Eh, if it’s lab grown or some family heirloom then I don’t think there’s any harm. With lab grown you’re getting virtually the same thing as natural ones for cheaper, and without it being harvested by a child slave at gun point.

I’m aware there are legitimate uses for it, I meant around foodstuff since it’s not something that should be anywhere near it. I probably should’ve specified better. 😅

Great, now lets ban teflon next.

What if they need it for medical reasons? But I guess I shouldnt expect these people to know the other ways they’re used since I doubt they paid attention in sex ed (assuming they even properly got it).

I can still dream

Hopefully this will push the billionaires to finally do something about it.

What if it’s a candiru?

I mean, it wasn’t like I was expecting the guy who refused to take down a popular softcore CP sub until it got mainstream media attention to be morally upstanding.

Ironically I wouldn’t have heard of it if it werent for this, so Streisand effect in action.

There is actually a promising cancer treatment that uses a genetically modified poliovirus strain, but it’s still in its trial phase.

I had no context when I first saw this image and assumed it was something drug related.

Grains loaded with added sugars for your largest meal. Surely that won’t contribute further to this country’s health crisis, like it didn’t already do that by marketing itself as healthy for growing children.

Dang maybe we should take a fraction of the trillions we spend on the military to fund scientific research, and also health and education while we’re at it so we’d get even more potential scientists.

…like lumber doesnt take far more effort per harvest, as well as take longer to grow?

As someone who is unironically into a lot of VR stuff and even owns a pricey headset myself, I did not understand the appeal from the features I’ve seen past looking “”“cool”“”. Even the stuff that looks at least somewhat fun or useful doesnt seem worth it considering the price, especially now that reviews are reporting there are basic features that cheaper headsets perform much better at and are way more comfortable.

Hemp is very versatile and can be used to make similar paper products while growing at a much faster rate, which potentially makes it a good replacement. The association with marijuana is part of what prevented it from catching on though.

What horse drug are centrists taking?

Oh yeah I agree, I just would rather that if it’s going to be a thing over lethal injections.

I am by no means pro death penalty, but I prefer this over the lethal injection. It’s a very painful and horrifying way to go and not at all like the drugs they give someone for medical euthanasia, while suffocating on nitrogen is actually relatively painless.
