@mikeburns @Jae Yesss, I've read this. It's so good.
@c0debabe I sometimes fantasize about enforcing not eating chemicals on people who say things like this until they recant.

@c0debabe we need to fight the scourge of dihydrogen monoxide. We should not let big polluters water down this issue!
There were plenty of ways to be poisoned before the industrial revolution so. 🤷🏽♀️
