THE TAIL THAT BURNS TWICE AS BRIGHT...


Rorus Raz posted:

A goon in the cooking forum (some years back) actually raised crickets to fatten them up on more palatable stuff before cooking them, but I don't really have the room to do that.

Doesn't actually need that much space!

That guy gives a bad presentation and he's a crazy who lived in a tiny NYC studio with his wife and a horde of chirping crickets but his thingy is neat.

Hello!

Rorus Raz posted:

It's loving evil as poo poo, preying on ignorance and false hopes to pick someone's pocket. My roommate is literally killing himself on this poo poo, and he's almost like Miller in that he looks 20 years older than he should.

I tried explaining to him why saturated fats are worse for you than unsaturated fats, the whole chemistry of fat tails and how saturation raises melting point, and his response to this was to eat a spoonful of coconut oil in front me.

Oh believe me, I've gone through the same poo poo. The Alzheimer's person in question I was talking about is my abusive bastard of a father that my mother thinks a bunch of nutrient supplements are going to cure him of it. Whenever I acted up (because my family is a loving trainwreck), she blamed it on the fact that I wasn't taking her loving magic supplements, which ended up gaslighting me into being paranoid that my problems were caused by an insufficient amount of her bullshit medication. It's a loving psychological parasite, and it especially preys on people who have been hosed over by some aspect of mainstream medicine (like my dad was by Hepatitis C treatments), who are afraid to trust it again but don't know what else to do.

We live in the year 2015, and you can't find a place to buy crickets from?

I've heard the ones raised as pet food taste pretty nasty to humans since cricket farmers aren't going to be super picky about what they feed the crickets. Maybe I got some bad info.

You don't even have to brush your teeth if you just swish coconut oil around for 20 minutes a day. Just think of all the, um, something you'll be saving!
To be fair, the process described has nothing to do with replacing brushing. In fact, the article you linked says to brush and floss after swishing.

Initially i had written off the Sanity Fair as a dumb MAD magazine style wordplay, but I don't think he's a bigot, he's just someone who doesn't see why this is a news story, so he feels like all the attention to someone who's most notable achievements were 40 years ago is kinda nuts, or insane. I was able to suss this out because it says so in the cartoon. All the sinister motivations you're projecting onto him are unearned by the artist. He did make a similar cartoon about noted non-gay Kim Kardashian last year.



Nope, he's just a dumb bigot. He's pro gay marriage and equal rights, so he's not a complete shithead, but every time someone famous comes out and talks about the struggles LGBT people face in their careers, he rushes in with the same dumb-rear end "oh who cares, shut up about being gay you loving faggots, I don't want to hear about your icky gay stuff" line.



Gee Tim, for someone who doesn't mind whether someone is gay or not, you sure draw a lot of art flipping out because gay athletes won't shut the gently caress up and get back in the closet.

People would instantly make a new dinosaur-proof plasma tank just for killing dinosaurs and that would be the end of them. There's nothing that would happen faster other than maybe perfect free birth control if it was men that got pregnant.

I actually really do wish Christians focused more on eating locusts and less on homophobia and abortion.

Insects are healthy to eat, cheap to raise, and they're good for the environment because they release less greenhouse gasses than other kinds of livestock.

"Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind."

Leviticus 11:22 King James Bible

The reference to beetles and grasshoppers makes me think they're talking about insects here, unless you have some really esoteric biblical knowledge that can clear up why they wouldn't be.
