I seem to remember reading vinegar was used between sponge uses so the burn issue could have been known and solved in antiquity by that.

Also, while new world peppers weren’t available during the Roman Empire the old world had black pepper, long pepper, horseradish and likely other “hot” spices were available to old world peoples.

I heard this was another person with the same name.

🤔 you know I think you might be right. I’m going to continue calling it a brick it out of spite.

A dozen generations of American children grew up learning to hunt and shoot targets without significant incidents. School shootings only became epidemic post-9/11, or maybe the late 90s if you stretch the definition. Guns are dangerous but there’s more happening here than a direct causal relationship.

I refuse any moniker for these besides bricks

I’ve heard that said on Bluesky and in Youtube comments. I said it kind of tounge-in-cheek but the thorough comment above outlines it very well.

Vanishingly close to 0%. People are social creatures and rely on each other to survive. Without the intricate web of interreliance that society relies on only a few extremely healthy and resourceful, profoundly insane people would survive as truly independent entities, a tiny number of these might “thrive.” Probably numbered in the hundreds or thousands worldwide.

Could explain why so many far right trolls online are from India (according to rumors I’m hearing lately at least)

The US Census Bureau keeps track of things like that? Huh… TIL

Nilered did a video on this, it’s technically at least cheese-adjacent

Sure would be a shame if he was defenestrated

Itd be great for that page to link to an archived copy of the post that got censoreddeleted.

Last I heard there were Palestinian Americans in Israeli prisons

Fuck it, this is the year we win the war on christmas.

This would fix me

“Fake lights”

I blame Newt Gingrich

The thing is, a lot of serious human disease started as diseases affecting other animals that made the jump over: Tuberculosis, Anthrax, and Plague, Ebola, and likely Covid-19, so regardless of how much someone might want an intervention like this to survive it’s with giving consideration, in my opinion

Human-to-pig is proving more difficult.

That said, I worry about the cross-species disease potential with transplants like this. Like, not from the lungs themselves but is the recipient more able to catch porcine-exclusive diseases zoonotically now? What if they work on a hog farm and are breathing in stuff all day there? Seems like a danger that could be overlooked.

I saw people saying on Bluesky that this was from a month-old video, can anyone confirm?
