@LKBanks420 What even is that? Don't look like a cannabis bud to me.

What would you call this strain. Name with most likes wins!

@4lexEllefsen @elonmusk also in poor countries with no incentives to have kids, the poor still have more kids.

@4lexEllefsen @elonmusk if that's case why don't millionaires have more kids? The cost is not the issue for them.

True

@4lexEllefsen @elonmusk No need to compare countries. Why do poor people in the US have more kids than the rich?

You are a smart man, except when it comes to this. Saying birth rates aren’t linked to cost of living ignores what people actually experience. GDP is a terrible measure here. It counts activity, not well-being. If rent doubles, GDP can go up. If people take on more debt just to survive, GDP can go up. That doesn’t mean life is getting easier, it means the opposite. Affluent countries do have advantages: better healthcare, lower child mortality, safer environments. That’s exactly why it’s telling that birth rates are falling in these places. The basics are covered, yet people still hesitate to have kids. Why? Because the real pressure is economic reality for younger generations: • Housing is increasingly out of reach • Debt levels are crushing • Cost of living eats up most income • Financial stability feels years away, not within reach It’s not that people don’t want children. It’s that starting a family feels like a financial risk instead of a natural next step. If you want to understand falling birth rates, don’t look at GDP. Look at whether young people can actually afford a future.

@random7007 @jc_518x NO billionaires actually have 1 billion in cash(not even Elon Musk). it's the combined value of all assets/companies they own.

@jc_518x @ennui365 You have a billion dollars, why are you working at all?

Spain prices at Repsol Key Trends (2021-2026): 2020-2021: Prices were historically low in early 2020 (€1.07-€1.10), gradually rising through 2021 as economic activity resumed. 2022 (Peak Year): Gasoline and diesel prices soared, often exceeding €2/liter due to geopolitical conflict and high demand, requiring government intervention. 2023-2024: Prices stabilized slightly below the 2022 peaks, often fluctuating between €1.50-€1.80 depending on global Brent crude trends. 2025-2026: Prices have moderated further, with March 2026 data placing 95-octane gasoline between €1.44 and €1.73 per liter.

@WyxelC76 Merkelig at det bare skjer i Norge, da...

Hva skjer? I løpet av to timer i ettermiddag, uten spesielle endringer i oljepris, settes både bensin og diesel opp med de samme summene som skal kuttes i morgen. Over hele landet. Og det skyldes på plutselig endring i innkjøpspris... 😤

@XANIXr6 @Chrillexzz @0xQuasark eye drops is likely just as fast, but i was not that crazy so have no experience with that.

@XANIXr6 @Chrillexzz @0xQuasark that was my point. and no eating it is not faster... the fastest way is having it in your mouth, goes though the skin right into your brain.

A woman accidentally snorted 550x doses of LSD, thinking it was cocaine. She vomited for 12 hours. Tripped for 34. But when she woke up... The chronic foot pain she'd had from Lyme Disease for over 20 years? 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗚𝗢𝗡𝗘. So she stops morphine for 5 days. Starts microdosing LSD every 3rd day. 2 years later... Off morphine completely. No withdrawal & no relapse. Researchers called it "a remarkable case of nonfatal high-dose LSD ingestion, with long-term pain relief". Just for reference: The estimated lethal dose of LSD is around 14,000 micrograms. She took 55,000. Nearly four times what researchers estimated could kill you. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘢𝘭𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘸𝘢𝘺. Pain-free.

@Chrillexzz @0xQuasark people die from bad trips, jumping from buildings, forgetting to drink or drink to much, forgetting to bread, pealing their own skin... but no from OD.

@Chrillexzz @0xQuasark i'm saying it's not possible. Unless you use the water argument, yes you can probably drown in it if you try.

@XANIXr6 @Chrillexzz @0xQuasark It goes into the body even if you bread it(put it in water and spray). And no you are not supposed to swallow blotters, you have it in your mouth. By the time you swallow it you have already ingested the LSD, you can spit it out if you want(it's just a piece of paper)

@bloppy88 @Chrillexzz @0xQuasark you CANNOT smoke acid, same goes for psilocybin and what the fuck do you mean breath it???? you either swallow it raw/in a drink or use lsd eye drops

@Chrillexzz @0xQuasark Not everyone knows that it goes through skin, this makes for some unwanted trips when ppl store blotter's in their socks.

@Chrillexzz @0xQuasark How ? Like anything, you eat it(or drink, smoke, put it on your skin, breath it, its very versatile). Find one case where someone died from an OD of LSD. LSD has no effect on the body at all, it just affects your brain.

@Scienceseur @p4rrotpolly @0xQuasark "Being "scared to death" is a rare, technically possible phenomenon where extreme fear causes fatal physiological failure, typically a heart attack or cardiac arrest triggered by a massive surge of adrenaline."

@bloppy88 @p4rrotpolly @0xQuasark What does that look like? You get so scared that you get a heart attack?

@p4rrotpolly @0xQuasark Can also happen but that's more common for drugs like PCP.

@bloppy88 @0xQuasark Or get scared to death.

@TylerCarta61908 @ClownWorld A man who sleeps with 10 women is a "dog".

But I don't think the question was what do u call a man who sleeps with 10 guys. The question probably was what do u call a man who sleeps with 10 women, like how a woman who sleeps with 10 guys is called a whore. My answer is, a man who sleeps with 10 women is a whore too. He is a male whore, and that is just as wrong if not worse.

@MysticAngel369 @ADHDMemess NO we can't, that's the point, no matter how perfect we do it. We feel nothing but relief that it's done. This is even the case when 50 people are cheering us on and thanking us for a job well done... still nothing. Can relax now.

@ADHDMemess That is bare minimum work, completed but not done well If you take pride in a job well done, you do feel accomplished & proud of what you did

@virtualguy99 @0kFlasks @Rainmaker1973 Cause we have known this for years from cloning other animals and plants. This is not news. Mutations becomes more and more common for every cloned generation. This is why most growers that clone use mother plants and take all clones from that plant and don't clone clones.

@0kFlasks @Rainmaker1973 Why would that be obvious

For decades, many scientists assumed that serial cloning — the repeated cloning of clones — could theoretically continue indefinitely. A landmark 20-year experiment has now demonstrated that this is not the case. Researchers found that successive rounds of somatic cell nuclear transfer lead to the progressive accumulation of genetic mutations, eventually creating insurmountable barriers to further cloning. The study, conducted by Teruhiko Wakayama and colleagues at the University of Yamanashi in Japan, began in 2005 using cells from a single female mouse. Over nearly two decades, the team produced more than 1,200 cloned mice across 58 generations. Early generations appeared healthy, with cloning success rates even improving slightly in the first 25–26 rounds. However, from around the 27th generation onward, success rates began to decline steadily. By the 57th generation, the average success rate had fallen to just 0.6%. All mice from the 58th generation died within a day of birth due to severe genomic instability. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that each round of cloning introduced new mutations at a rate approximately three times higher than in naturally mated mice. These included an accumulation of single-nucleotide variants and large structural abnormalities, such as chromosomal losses and translocations. Unlike sexual reproduction, which benefits from natural DNA repair and recombination mechanisms during meiosis, cloning bypasses these processes, allowing deleterious mutations to build up unchecked — akin to the progressive degradation seen in repeated photocopying. Importantly, while the late-generation cloned mice still appeared phenotypically normal and had typical lifespans up to the 57th generation, the accumulated genetic load proved fatal when attempting the 58th round. The study underscores that, without the introduction of genetic diversity through sexual reproduction, long-term serial cloning in mammals is ultimately unsustainable. These findings have significant implications for biotechnology. They highlight fundamental limits for applications such as de-extinction efforts, long-term agricultural cloning, and conservation breeding programs. While cloning remains a powerful tool for producing genetically identical animals, the research serves as a clear reminder that current techniques cannot indefinitely replace the evolutionary safeguards provided by sexual reproduction.

@WallStreetApes If you run a red light you should be arrested/fined no matter what.. even if nobody is there.

WOW 🚨 California resident captures the police in Ventura setting up an entrapment trap You can see all the officers huddled with their motorcycles and cameras filming They send people out to cross the road without green walk signs. Any car that doesn’t stop gets pulled over This isn’t the first time I’ve seen entrapment scams like this in California
