A few years back I worked in an art supplies store that also had an assortment of pretty rocks. Basic stuff like amethyst geodes, malachite, pyrite. One day I get a phone call from some lady, asking about our quartz crystals - and if those are the ones that can block the radiation from wifi-routers So I told her why not. She did not appreciate that information

People always act like blocking somebody is like some huge public meltdown, but why would you let a complete stranger keep sending you hate mail when you can just click a button and never hear from them again?

Bismuth posted:Do tiktoks embed properly yet One could probably make a tidy business just grinding down green bottle glass into pretty shapes for these people. Though at least this stuff has the "it came from space (maybe)" bit to it. I can't stand those salt lamps people go on and on about. It's just salt. And that's assuming it's actually salt, or even salt from the Himalayas. I bet 99% of those lamps are at best just cast molds dyed to look kinda right. And a 30 watt lamp bulb is not going to do anything to salt. If it did your table salt would be giving off just as much if not more "ions" since the increased surface area would make it more efficient. But you also don't want a lamp to be able to decompose salt because you'd get chlorine gas! rant rant rant rant rant

Guess what else is cool about salt lamps? If your cat licks it, they get sediment in their urethra and you get to choose between spending a poo poo ton of money or killing it

Sure, but there are people who use it like that, and then there are people who use it whenever they're losing to someone n an argument. Either way, it's not as funny as hiding replies.

It's proof that the account owner read it and was at least mildly annoyed. Since most public figures aren't going to be drawn into a Twitter argument, that's as good of a reaction as you can expect.

Salt lamps absolutely do not work, but the mechanism they claim to work by(negative ions) might, at least for fighting depression.

That’s because they often accidentally reflect full spectrum light. If you get a white full spectrum lightbulb then it does help with SAD but you got to stick with it till your brain adjusts. Another thing we know from light therapy research with people with severe sensory issues is that if humans have a favourite colour then switching the bulb or lampshade to that colour is calming and can help sort out sleep patterns. The reverse is also true, If you have a colour you hate then if anything in your room is that colour, say bright yellow on a Pokemon poster, your brain can get fixated on it even with the light off because it still knows it’s there and it can cause issues with stress and getting to sleep.

I guess it's strictly true in so far as things like salts and other foods, minerals, and medicines containing ions, but how exactly is that supposed to apply to a lightbulb in a rock?

I would love if people sold the woo community fake moldavite so non-idiot rock enjoyers could have the real stuff. I really love moldavite because its basically my favorite color and the raw texture is beautiful, but GOD its expensive and i cant imagine theyre making that any better. I saw someone encase some in one of those stupid orgone pyramids and i felt my blood pressure rise
