Sometimes the Earth feels a little sick. So all the humans dumped their poo poo in its mouth until it suffocated and died. It was the most profitable (and last) fiscal earnings quarter ever.

Alobar posted:when is technology going to upgrade my rear end in a top hat to an official 3d printer so i can print things other than piles of poo poo? i need some things. the piles of poo poo are very useful because of all the plastic i can extract from it, but i need more. Tangentially related to 3d printing with your rear end in a top hat, the book the stars are legion is about a worldship populated exclusively by women who give birth to components to the ship, and the worldship is dying because it's running out of resources

mod sassinator posted:how about some ARSENIC, CADMIUM and LEAD instead? seems to be tumerics, ginger, oreganos, basil, and paprika that are the main culprits. particularly it seems spices grown bulk in india and adjacent regions which is where most of those would come from (for cheap). and particularly your cheap garbage grocery store Great Value mccormick poo poo. i buy most of my spices from a small local very bougie place. i should ask them next time i'm there what they do.

it would be fitting to be poisoned by spices considering the horrors the americans and europeans inflicted to get those spices throughout time

i have and use so many spices i buy in bulk from an asian market but imagine like most modern production it comes from the same small handful of sources all that cadmium and arsenic and lead can fight with the plastics i guess

I like to imagine there is a toxin out there so toxic that a single molecule of the stuff will go around the body loving poo poo up all by itself, causing enough damage to cause serious illness within a noticeable timeframe and never getting removed from the body

Seatbelts posted:What? you mean come back here? pass You can "level up", as it were, to an incarnation that is much, much better than this. If you're lazy and loving around and not learning then you gotta incarnate on this bastard Earth again. Anyway being here is a precious gift! No other incarnations have as much potential for accelerated growth than here (not Earth per se but a human-like experience), really you should be grateful although I understand why you may feel otherwise.

VX, a nerve agent, has an LD50 of 3 micrograms (per kg). Batrachotoxin has an LD50 of 2 micrograms (per kg). Maitotoxin has an LD50 of 50 nanograms (per kg).

is a virus a toxin?

mawarannahr posted:is a virus a toxin? No. There is only one virus of which we're aware that produces a toxin - rotavirus produces the toxin NSP4. Edit: the spike protein, but not SARS-CoV-2, may properly be considered a toxin but as far as I'm aware no one has named it that specifically. A case can be made but to my mind it should only be considered a toxin if the protein circulates independent of the virus, which I don't believe it does (I think this is an open-ended area of study and no one can say for certain whether it does or doesn't?).

And the Litvinenko killers contaminated themselves, their hotel room, and left multiple trails all across London. Jesus.

Strom Cuzewon posted:Somewhere between 10 and 100 ng of Polonium is fatal. That's absolute dosage, not per kg of body weight. Yes! But we couldn't properly call it a toxin. Also we would measure it in GBq not grams but if you were to convert Litvinenko's lethal dose (2 GBq) to grams you get ~10 micrograms not nanograms.

Ah very true, I was just going for the most small amount = death think I could find. quote:if you were to convert Litvinenko's lethal dose (2 GBq) to grams you get ~10 micrograms not nanograms. I think it bears repeating: Jesus. Only alpha decay, so not as terrifying as it could be that they spread it all over the place. But still, plenty terrifying.
