  7. I occasionally have fun with the chemtrail crowd. I'll start off and agree that there were chemtrails, then move forward to qualify that with U-2 additives to stabilize the literal charcoal lighter fluid fuel to keep it from boiling at altitude and move into the more serious additive in the SR-71 fuel, other than a similar additive for the same reason as the U-2's fuel, in a fuel you could put a road flare out in, it also had a cesium additive - to obscure the exhaust plume of a fairly stealthy aircraft, rather than having a gigantic proctologist's finger from hell pointing up the aircraft's ass end. All quite true. It also royally pisses them off, as it's true, no nefarious nonsense is involved and I provide citations. The climate denier crowd, I have fun with. After all, greenhouse gases are natural, CO2 is part of a plant's daytime respiration and well, CO2 made Venus the paradise it is today, assuming that molten lead temperatures is your idea of paradise. Loads of electricity and magnetism in the sun, well, its upper layers and corona, anyway. Deeper in, way too hot for such silly things to work, too busy fusing or convecting. Neutron stars, especially young ones are magnetic madhouses, accretion discs a magnetic madhouse of their own, fortunately for the neighbors, the inverse square law rides in to save their day and night and especially weekends. But, those strong, but range limited magnetic fields are handy for detection, they polarize electromagnetic energy going past them, providing a measurement tool for their strength. For the magnetic gravity crowd, I offer a quality insulated sole set of boots and invite them to step off of a tall building and demonstrate flotation. No takers yet. The most entertaining was an antivaxer who doxed me, then threatened graphically to invade my home, rape and kill my wife, then kill everyone else in the home, saving my death for last. When I was done laughing, I patiently explained that invading my home was both foolhardy and suicidal, as it'd be unlikely that I'd be very conciliatory as to end matters swiftly with a firearm against an armed intruder, he'd instead learn precisely what I did in the Army, what vivisection was, after being immobilized by bludgeon, his demise would likely take 16 hours and before we began, would he kindly advise me as to how he wished his sparse remains disposed of, or should I simply dump them into a pig feeding trough? Radio silence was observed ever since from that enterprising individual. I guess it was mission accomplished and I was utterly cowed or something. Or saw the error of his ways. Don't know, don't care, but he at least did save me the trouble of having to resharpen my fighting knife. Well, at least until the next time I was out gardening and it needed resharpening again. Unused tools are clutter, used tools require and deserve maintenance.

  11. Don't forget, HAARP belongs to the University of Alaska, so they're also saying that the state of Alaska is allegedly controlling tropical weather systems using their Harry Potter magical marital aid stick... Well, maybe that's true and Alaska really is the master of the world, after all, they've got enough volcanoes that they could have a lair inside of one. And putting a lair inside of something that has more explosive power than all of the 2000+ nukes ever detonated is always both rewarded with survival and a smart idea, as proved by Saturday morning cartoons from the '70's. Lead, of course, by Professor Bumbler, obeying the Heisenberg Inanity Principle, being simultaneously incompetent and supremely omnipotent. And all while remaining souper seekrit, with tens of thousands of workers, all sworn to seekricy and magic-magic screw stick enforced by Harry Potter's wooden dildo. And further guided with radar from sites so well documented as to render the notion of being a secret beyond absurd. Pick a lane, I'd be happy if these dweebs could pick a frigging highway! And ever so much, lead by information supposedly from some kiddie porn purveyor out of the Philippines, who somehow still holds a Q clearance, meaning he'd have knowledge of parts of how to build parts of a nuclear weapon, which gives all knowledge of all special operations operations worldwide, because the two are so intricately linked as to both be in continuous simultaneous usage. Yet oddly, nothing manages to glow in the dark. There is no power like the power of Sven. At least, not according to the mighty Arctic penguins. With secure communications provided by the mercurochrome metronome, gently stirred using Harry Potter's magical fuck stick. Sigh, I really don't drink enough, but alas, the local galactic group can't make enough ethanol to supply enough to drink... Obviously also a part of the Grand Conspiracy of the Space Aliens. But, here's another souper seekrit, the seerit air shield code is 1-2-3-4-5. Now, excuse me while I change the code on my luggage.

  28. Heroin is illegal in the US, but commonly prescribed for post-operative pain in the UK. Remember, this is international , not US centric and biochemistry and pharmacology is decidedly not any nation or continent centric. But, addictive potential is a topic lousy with confounders. Opiates and opioids have aversion factors, such as triggering MAST cell responses, I'm lousy with histamine and feel miserable taking the infernal things. That aversion tends to limit the potential for addiction and that's only one example. Susceptibility is another, such as genetic predisposition, secondary to slightly different receptor configurations or even ion channel differences. So, we look at mass numbers to determine addictive potential and far more are addicted to opioids than benzodiazepines and alcohol is outside of the scope of a discussion on pharmacology and addiction, as I've yet to see a recorded case of alcoholism secondary to a prescribed medical treatment! But, I do agree that the DEA's drug schedule is bullshit, as it's largely via Congressional input, hence political in nature more than anything evidence based. As for ethanol withdrawal, I've been known to pack away that dosage, then quit without sequelae and amazingly, my liver panels were normal. Not a clue how that worked out, but it has repeatedly for me, again, confounders like genetics and perhaps, my Grave's disease shifting my metabolism upward a bit might be what comes into play. But therein lies a confounder of medicine in general, both pharmacological and in medical theory, individual idiosyncrasy. But then, that drives everyone to distraction... ;)
