TeenageArchipelago posted:To be fair you don't HAVE to donate the blood. You could just regularly bleed yourself I've known the occasional leach researcher over the years. They actually find their subjects kind of personable and give them names. What I'm saying is: new pets, and PetSmart won't be ripping you off for the food. otoh capitalism means within 2 months we'd being seeing packs of leach flakes on the shelves, now with RICE AND BLUEBERRIES. Taking your sick leach to the vet, who advises you to cut back on your intake of Tim Horton's donuts.

thanks for this. super interesting, and I passed it on to various family members my parents will be like "yep, sad, sorry we're leaving you a lovely planet", my brother will be like "yep, hmm, lots of different models, it's all bad but I am still funding my kid's college", and my sister in law who is absolutely zero crack pinged at all, will probably shrug it off but I suspect the casual ease with which "the end of civilization" is mentioned will give her a weird feeling she can't shake. Also my wife will chew me out for "sending doomer poo poo like that to my sister, yes, it's all happening, yes it's bad, leave the suburbanites ALONE, cabbages!!". gently caress that. edit: for what it's worth we're also, like my brother, putting money into kid's college funds. I am just super cynical about it and constantly making jokes, internally or not, about how I hope I am able to convert the money into extra soy rations for them after the last universities close

I went to a bunch of trouble to make my garden groundhog proof (I fuckin hate digging ditches) to avoid having to "deal" with them. Now I can look out and see my sweet garden, and also watch the groundhogs sniff around the fence and get pissed off (it goes down 12" guys, you're not getting under). Groundhogs are pretty loving cool, I think I prefer them to people even if they're constantly trying to eat all my veggies and loving marijuana. Yes, they eat pot. Wtf.

watched an episode of not so pretty on hbo last night. the one I saw examined the impacts of exposure to nail polish on Vietnamese salon workers. it’s short and simple, pretty good https://twitter.com/JaneDoeFilms/status/1516793951654719489?s=20&t=bQ11MZGQYb2VqzKcjVRO3w it’s cracking some people https://twitter.com/HotVannaNights/status/1515149441635954700?s=20&t=bQ11MZGQYb2VqzKcjVRO3w https://twitter.com/anihtek/status/1515014887977766914?s=20&t=bQ11MZGQYb2VqzKcjVRO3w https://twitter.com/heykmart/status/1515166964808880130?s=20&t=bQ11MZGQYb2VqzKcjVRO3w https://twitter.com/d_soncasie/status/1515859723639214084?s=20&t=bQ11MZGQYb2VqzKcjVRO3w

It's worth noting that the people in the study were firefighters who were often exposed to fire retardant foam that contained pfas. regular people who aren't exposed to huge doses of pfas on an irregular basis, and instead are exposed to a relatively constant amount in their environment, likely wouldn't see this same benefit unless they paired it with somehow reducing that environmental exposure. Maybe. idk I'm not a doctor

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) attempted to do so in 1989 only to be overturned by the federal court following a backlash from manufacturers.

It really does own how many business owners simultaneously believe that they deserve to be rich because they took a risk while also see any time that that risk doesn't pay off as inherently unfair and not what they signed up for Plus how abstracted "I took a risk" is. If your risk failed the worst that happens to you is that you have to work some lovely wage labor job like the rest of us. That's what you're risking. Maybe your in debt like the millions of people with crippling student loan debt too. Or there are the people who are to the point where they simply aren't taking a risk anymore. A billionaire buying $500,000 worth of a companies stock isn't taking a risk, they're reducing their risk by diversifying their wealth. Playing a rigged game once is taking a risk, playing a rigged game a thousand times isn't Sir this is the climate thread, ect. ect.
