Awesome. The guys at Dupont, Chemours (a subsidiary of Dupont), and 3M who put this shit into everything despite their own testing in the 70’s showing that it accumulated in humans and caused an increase in cancer must be super proud of themselves. They made their CEO’s millionaires, and all they had to do was poison everyone they ever knew, loved or cared about (plus everyone else).

CS gas

Science Direct website says that

In contrast to other forms of chemical exposure, irrigating the affected area will only intensify and prolong the effects of CS gas or particles.

For all the effort you’ve put into trying to convince people that water is the answer, it’s reasonable at this point to ask you to try it yourself. Get yourself some pepper spray from the store, and then spray your skin. Try to wash it off with water. Wait until you’re in sufficient pain and the water clearly didn’t do anything, then try milk, and feel your pain evaporate. You can do this experiment in less than an hour. Report back when you’re finished, or you can delete all this misinformation. Whichever.

Yeah but no. I’ve been tear gased, and water does nothing but make it worse. The capsacin is dissolved in an oil, and using water will only spread it over your body (and that shit hurts a lot everywhere it touches). Use milk, it will provide instant pain relief. The threat of bacteria in pasteurized milk is the same as in water, and odds are, after dumping milk all over, you’re probably going to wash yourself off afterwards.

if you’re gased, don’t waste time following this bad advice. Take it from someone who’s actually had been gassed, only milk works. Don’t try water.

The other day I couldn’t get my VLOOKUP function to work because the table I was trying to query hadn’t been designated “Table2” but “Table14” because…? Company laptop was dangerously close to putting a small dent in the closest brick wall. Doing this for fun? What?

fantastic video. I’ve only ever acted in the theater, and he really does make clear how much different acting is within the two mediums. Plus Michael comes off as a wonderfully talented, yet approachable and kind. Glad I watched!

Nope. Bernie and his next-gen bloc of Progressives have been consistently trying to get medicare for all passed. They last introduced it in May of last year.

This is probably, in the long term, a bad thing. But damn if I don’t want a pet fox, raccoon, and capybara. 😍

Morton Thiokol

you mean Allan McDonald?

Interestingly enough:

The focus of the commission’s investigation shifted to the booster rocket O-rings, and the concerns and efforts of McDonald and his engineers to stop the launch which were ignored by NASA officials. McDonald’s comments to the commission led to him temporarily losing his position with Morton Thiokol, being demoted.

The presidential commission was alarmed at Morton Thiokol’s decision to punish McDonald and introduced a joint resolution that threatened to prevent Morton Thiokol from receiving further contracts from NASA. Given the commission’s threat, Morton Thiokol promoted McDonald to vice president and tasked him with improving the rocket joints that failed during Challenger’s launch.

Perhaps the U.S. govt needs to step in again to right the ship at boeing. Well, I’m being coy, of course the U.S. gov’t has to step up and do something. Companies should never be some sacred cow that we’re afraid of upsetting.

OK I was going to read the links but I’m nearing the end of my daily Lemmy time and I need to ask, turtles can breathe through their skin?!?

I’d say it would parallel the results from the Stanford Prison experiment. Give one group of people everything, including the power to decide what happens to people in the out-group, and they will inevitably become hostile towards the out group.

Morality schmorality, we need universal healthcare, daycare, a progressive tax system, and much more. Once society is equitable to all, then all have equal opportunity to behave “morally.”

Aw heck yeah, I missed the first showing, I’ll be damned if I miss it’s return!

Wait, what does this mean? I genuinely thought fossils were the bones, preserved through lack of oxygen

Christina Marie Chapman, 49, of Litchfield Park, Arizona, raised $6.8 million in the scheme, federal prosecutors said in an indictment unsealed Thursday. Chapman allegedly funneled the money to North Korea’s Munitions Industry Department, which is involved in key aspects of North Korea’s weapons program, including its development of ballistic missiles.

Part of the alleged scheme involved Chapman and co-conspirators compromising the identities of more than 60 people living in the US and using their personal information to get North Koreans IT jobs across more than 300 US companies.

Dey Terker’ Jerbs!

I’d kill for something forcing airbnb, vrbo, etc to actually cooperate.

I’ll go one step further, I’d pay taxes to the government that actually regulates shitty business practices. How is it easier to have a 12% increase in homelessness last year than it is to regulate fucking airbnb? Airbnb is not northrup grumman. It’s not allied steel. it can go the fuck away.

notice the clear lack of a “controversy” section on Kendricks wikipedia. Drake is the only shitty person in this rap beef

I usually eat holistically, with nutrition coming from whole grain meals, I guess you just blindly go for carb-centric meals 🙄 I also always tip at restaurants, not sure why others wouldn’t…

wow now you;re suddenly on the defensive? why I wonder? you need therapy.

lol sorry about your weight

because of your baseless accusations lmao sound like someone straight out of female dating strategy
