I don't have a hot take on this. I wear jeans all the time for protection from spiky plants, ticks and other ground-based hazards. The leading reason why I don't wear shorts is that.... I don't own any.

I couldn't possibly give any fewer shits if people saw my legs.

Only time I'm wearing pants.. is for work and for formal social gatherings. Everything else is shorts... However, I may need to re-evaluate that before I go off this week spraying weed killer. Ain't trying to catch cancer, nom sayin'?

I dunno if weed killer is going to be causing cancer, but sure.

Do what you want.

I'm mainly concerned with shit like the Lonestar tick which has a chance of making you allergic to red meat if you're bitten.

I mean, any tick sucks (pun intended), but that is just a whole new level of torture. I love steak. It's probably a big reason why I couldn't be vegan. Steak is just too good.

Supposedly Roundup and cancer are aligned. I don't know all the facts though.
