It sounds like it would be good to drink a glass or so every week just to help prevent kidney stones right? Or am I Way off the Mark here. I feel like I'm way off the Mark here, but somebody please confirm if I am not off the mark okay?

Next time you get your teeth cleaned at the dentist, which you should be doing every 6 months or so, ask them to give you a fluoride treatment. They literally just brush this minty sweet stuff onto your teeth and let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes.

The fluoride will leech into your teeth and help reinforce any weak spots to decrease the likelihood of developing cavities.

I mean, if you're a conspiracy theorist then in theory it will calcify your third eye as well, but I have no way of verifying that claim, or even proving that the third eye exists other than the pineal gland in your brain, and I've never heard of anyone's pineal gland being calcified.

I used to have very long hair and from this behind or beside people would call me ma'am and then when I turn to look at them they would correct themselves and say no I said man man.

But I've been incredibly fortunate, if I've ever Miss gendered anyone either the person I misgendered was kind enough to let it slide or didn't make a big deal out of it.

It's very much a nothing Burger in my life.

It would only be ironic if it were a lifesaving device, for instance, if the creator of the defibrillator went into cardiac arrest by an accidental misfiring of the defibrillator on him.

Irony requires a reasonable expectation of an opposite outcome.

A solar eclipse happening on a cloudy day is not ironic, it's merely unfortunate. A song about things claiming to be ironic actually containing nothing that will qualify as ironic is ironic.

It's kind of like in the 1800s they believed that human beings could never generate enough pollutants to actually affect the Earth. There are intelligent opinions statements saying that the Earth was simply too large for anything a mere handful of 100 million humans could do to leave any lasting impact on.

Of course, they had no idea that we would swell to 8 billion humans or that the industrial revolution would take off quite so well as it did, but even today there are many people who believe that nothing that they individually do can leave any type of lasting ecological impact, positive or negative.

And because of that you have bum fuck HVAC technicians venting refrigerants into the atmosphere willy-nilly and assholes driving down the street throwing lit cigarette butts out in the middle of a drought and people just dumping their trash wherever they find an opportunity to dump it.

I said all of that to say that it's probably likely that even minor usage of drugs cause effects that are at best difficult to quantify. I don't think getting high one time is going to be the differentiation between a homeless bum and a Nobel Peace prize winner, but it might be the difference between someone who works a career and earns at their best $250,000 a year and someone who works a career and earns at their best $80,000 a year.

I could have sworn nicotine was technically a stimulant because it has vasoconstrictive properties.

And I don't know anyone who has ever put off going to sleep in order to take more depressants.

I have a follow-up head Canon about the movie Evil Dead 2, in that what we are seeing is Ash telling us the story of what happened and how his girlfriend got her head chopped off with a shovel.

That would explain the camp, The Three stooges comedy and the over-the-top bizarre this guy is just so cool he can't be killed even by an army of the Dead even when he sucked into the past like A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court.

This is held up by the revised ending to army of darkness where he's telling this story to a girl in Kmart sorry, S Mart to impress her as if having a home-built robotic hand wasn't impressive efuckingnough.

Okay, yes, well, good, but why the fuck would Starfleet make their uniforms out of danger enhancing materials? That is like some 4D chess fucking eugenics program going on here.

Someone once explained it that watching the earth spin backward was not him flying so fast that he literally dragged the Earth in reverse but rather that the Earth spinning backward was a byproduct of our third party view watching time go in reverse because Superman was traveling back in time.

But he would have to literally be stronger than the sun to do that because the only way you can travel backwards in time is to travel faster than the speed of light.

But it's movie magic so what can you say?

Reminder that the people most affected by this would be the kind of people who can afford a $100,000 vehicle.

And the stingiest people on the planet are the rich.

I don't think it would be too crazy to rely on that to help draft pro consumer legislation.

And also, I personally think that vaders redemption at the end of episode 6 was false.

Vader killed billions of people. He destroyed an entire planet for the lulz.

And he was a whiny little shit his entire life before becoming Vader.

One tiny little moment of redemption is not enough to undo all the shit he did.

It is my opinion that the force ghosts shown at the end of episode 6 are being created by Luke Skywalker to assuage his own mental trauma of the series of events that had let him to that point.

He did that so he can tell himself that he is a hero, that he is not a failed Jedi, that all of the pain and suffering he had been through was worth it.

The only reason why Leia could sort of see them was because she was tuned into his force power

Then back to the Future part 2, Marty McFly should have arrived in the future where he disappeared 30 years ago and his children were never born.

Even if he did arrive history should have begun reverting itself, as his disappearance from the past should have altered the present until he returns.

As long as he experienced no ghosting effects, that would have meant that he was functionally immortal until he returned back to the present.

That entire scenario could have been avoided if doc Brown had said we've got a few hours until the universe begins to rectify the fact that you are not in the past with the temporal causality of the present future
