Of note, the homophonic word, Tuna means the large fish with lots of mercury in it in English, and means the fruit of the prickly pear cactus in Spanish. I’ve made honey wine (mead or in this case melomel) with tuna, the fruit, and it’s amusing to hear people’s reaction to “tuna melomel”.

““All we can point out is this association in the third trimester,” Guglio said. “It takes other people down the line to investigate those pathways more directly.””
PM2.5 induced inflammation is probably the link. And is also associated with ARCD (age related cognitive decline), Alzheimer’s Disease and numerous other organ/ system diseases.

I thought of looking them up, too. I’ve thought of making my own, just for fun. :-)
Almost, not quite satisfactory. It’s a dispenser tube, with a screw driven plunger. Thanks all the same!!
Your thesis describes ‘enshitification’, which is rampant, alas. Theodore Sturgeon, author, is credited with saying, “90% of Everything is Crap.”, a.k.a. Sturgeon’s Law. I did just use the phenomenon of The Superb Owl to get a great price on a new shirt, with a pair of socks and a thing (what are those lipstick containers called? ) of lip balm thrown in for free.
Turns out you were correct. Which is sad, because there is some legit science in the Red and Near Infrared area, but this and other devices are overpriced and fraudulent.
As long as it a picture of a real penguin, and not AI slop, I think we’re good.


These placebos are one hell of a drug.


Yes, well, except for the “laser” part. And also the part about angry; one needn’t anthropomorphize a natural phenomenon. The Sun is.
Only pink and blue. But many options in DIY.
I see there is Gender Reveal Tannerite, which would dye the perps a chosen color.
Let’s be clear, this was not an accidentally above standard grade, this was sub-standard grade copper. Dammit, EA-NASIR!!!
