Every generation has some product/ingredient that they didn’t know was dangerous at the time: tobacco, lead, asbestos, etc. What is that item for this generation?

  • Do you know if bicycles also create tire dust or do they not go fast enough?

  • What about natural sweeteners like Stevia? Has anything come out about it? I know it has weird effects like it can cause indigestion and other things, but I haven't personally heard anything about it actually being bad for you (though I have not looked very far).

  • I don't think it's fair to say "safer" or even "less safe" because it's more complicated than that. Because it doesn't combust it doesn't do a lot of the same harm that cigarettes do, however, inhaling vapour creates a host of entirely different problems, one being an increased risk of pneumonia, plus the massive increase in the amount of nicotine people who vape consume can affect your bladder, oddly enough. People are just ill informed tbh.

  • Honestly though the conditions in the US right now are eerily similar to the conditions right before the fall of Rome

    • Do you need to vent about something?

  • I am so angry. I am so sick and tired of just stating my experiences as a woman and having people who are not women straight up tell me that I'm wrong. About my own life experiences. It's fucking exhausting to be surrounded on all sides by bad faith actors, knowing full well that you won't get through to them, and feeling defeated, like the world is going backwards and you can feel your rights being torn away from you bit by bit, trying desperately to stand up for yourself and having any words you say fall on deaf ears. I'm so sick of not being listened to. I'm so sick of not being believed. I am so fucking sick of not being respected. I just want to be treated like a human and not be criticised for literally just fucking existing.

    I'm so done.
