And replace him with a younger wingnut? Tbh I want him to live simply because the two dozen people who didn't vote for Mitch to keep assfucking the state suffer less when he's got lag issues over him turning over to a new cretin.

Meaning one could hypothetically spray a tomato with dioxins up to 5% of its body weight and it would still qualify as organic.

And slip some cash over to the FDA when one of their interns asks too many questions.

Any credibility he had ought to have crumbled in the early 2000s when he promoted Oxycontin and pushed a deal to continue sales. Absolutely mind-boggling, I read about him 15 years afterward and I'm amazed by how conservatives fell in line to defend a ghoul who tried to get them all hooked on opioids for a nickel just because he said some pretty words about defending the orange god-king or whatever.

Okbuddygenshin is leaking again.

Villifying plants is on the nonsensical agenda as well (i.e. making mountains out of molehills over soy/phytoestrogens). But Tofu and other soybean foods have been staples across a huge chunk of East Asia for centuries and nobody's been worse off for it (besides unlucky allergies). Funny enough, East Asia also has a few niche recipes for cooking bugs, and since my parents are from South Korea I occasionally ate steamed silkworm pupae as a kid (they sell them here in cans as 번데기/beondegi). The weird earthy taste and general phobia of creepy crawlies is the reason it's not too popular nowadays. I wasn't a huge fan myself but I do see bug meat as a potential resource.

So it's just the usual fearmongering over made-up problems. Plant protein is good, bug protein has existed as something I wouldn't mind if it tastes alright, and the meat industry's going to lobby for more subsidies and thrive regardless of what happens.

The UK remembers when Margaret Thatcher took their kindergarteners' free milk. Shortly before she fucked up their parents' not-free housing market.

Now you've convinced me! I really ought to have been the bigger man when my mom called me in the middle of the night to tell me that Trump's a martyr like Jesus and that the Democrats are performing demonic baby-eating rituals inside underground tunnels, and just let her keep screaming about me being a brainwashed woke communist because we just have little differences and we all need to get along.

Haha, nope. I want scorched earth on every one of those conspiracy nut fuckers holding right-wing parties around the balls, since they went after my family with their brainrot. I don't give a shit that a handful of people exist who don't explicitly support Jewish Space Laser Marge or Venmo Bribes Clarence, because y'all still vote lock step to keep these crazy loons around because Roe v. Wade is worth killing for $300 extra on next year's tax return.

Of course not, helping priests climb to heaven is the altar boy's job.

The one on the upper right-hand corner of the recommended watch sidebar always manages to sneak past my multiple adblockers. I'm tired of having my eyes seared by massive anime tiddies (Queen's Blade ads) just because I sometimes watch anime and the monkeys working in the algorithm machine greenlit softcore pornography to be plastered all over their platform. But I sure as shit ain't paying them $170 a year to get those idiots to stop.

"If you punch a Nazi, the number of Nazis in the world remains the same!"

"Punch two."

Limited subscriptions can go to hell as well. Sure, I could pay $50/yr for a Switch Online + Expansion Pack (not featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series) so I can temporarily play GBA games and lose access to them forever when the service is eventually discontinued... or I could just emulate them on my smartphone/jailbroken consoles for free.

Hand sanitizer is ~120 proof alcohol. (Not a recommendation to drink it, since it's usually spiked with bad-tasting additives to keep people from doing just that. Some commercial hand sanitizers swap out ethanol for isopropyl alcohol, i.e. rubbing alcohol, which is more toxic when ingested.)
