It was weirdly worded. The organization was saying it supports criticizing safe spaces and "today's micro agression culture", but they disavow doing it while all diaped up.

Wait are they referring to literal turpentine, like the solvent you can use to strip lacquer off tables and poo poo?

It's definitely not meant to be private. It's tuning into tumblr-style posting, which for some reason is all the rage among some of the social media marketers.

According to the link AlbieQuirky posted it is sort of the same, maybe different, but probably not.

http://michellemasonrocks.blogspot.ca/2016/10/how-to-kill-parasites.html

quote:

Gum Spirits- may be referred to as Turpentine, let me explain why that is both correct and incorrect so you understand what you want to look for and take. (Note that Gum Spirits are NOT Spirit Gum!) Gum Spirits are made by gathering the pine gum resin (sticky pine sap) and concentrating it- a process very similar to making Maple Syrup. That's it, it's just concentrated pine sap, and pine sap is high in something called terpenes, which is where we get the name turpentine. Our grandparents all ingested turpentine to kill parasites (and for other health reasons), in fact it's listed in many medical manuals (Merck); the original Vick's Vapor Rub had turpentine as an ingredient. At some point (my apologies for not having the exact year) manufacturers took this pure turpentine (gum spirits) and added POISONS to it, and put it in a large metal can and still called it Turpentine. And this is where the confusion comes in, whether turpentine is toxic or poison, or if turpentine heals.

The answer is, if you are looking to use a medicinal version for internal or external human use, you want a small glass bottle labeled "100% Pure Gum Spirits", such as the one sold by Diamond G on Amazon (Humco is also good) (these are both around $10 each for 4 ounces). DO NOT EVER buy turpentine from a hardware store in a metal can and use it, you will poison yourself. Pure Gum Spirits only, if the label says anything else, don't take it. Dosage is up to one teaspoon per week. It is generally suggested to ingest with white sugar, enough sugar that it is saturated with your gum spirits (white sugar only, not honey or substitutes). Some people also like rubbing it on the belly button to expel parasites- you want a carrier oil for this route, meaning you dilute it by putting a few drops of Gum Spirits into a few tablespoons of olive oil, and rub this olive/gum spirit oil on the belly. Precaution: Do not apply to mucous membranes. Suggestion: start small, say 3 drops in one day, and slowly increase dosage each time until you reach the maximum. Expect: gurgling noises in digestive tract and 'turp burps', a burp with the taste. The Taste: very pleasant, like pine candy. Child dosage: I gave my 45 pound five year old one drop, she did fine with that.

Wikipedia lists several concentration methods but doesn't mention POISONS being added to modern turpentine, it's still concentrated pine juice. So at a guess the difference is probably that metal cans of turpentine are the same stuff but much more concentrated than the tiny glass bottles of "100% Pure Gum Spirits" being sold for woo. The dose makes the poison.

That said, it's entirely possible some of the people trying the cleanse are just buying paint thinner, and not the tiny artisanal bottles of sap.

Yes, traditionally turpentine is made from thermally decomposed and distilled pine tar. It is worth noting that pine trees produce tar as an insecticide, and it is irritating, allergenic, and biocidal in high enough quantities.

Why do all these dudes think that the ladies are interested in seeing their genitals? Like, I'm a fan of penises, but outside of an intimacy setting, they're at best just goofy-looking. Seeing one from some guy I just met is just like, "OK, you have a dong, like most other men. Congratulations on being biologically uninteresting?"

Just... why? Why is this such a thing?
