  • Maybe I’m biased because I’m a welder, but it always made more sense to me that electricity flows from the negative. Like , if the positive moved, wouldn’t you change the element of the wire after a while? It also helps that you can tell the difference if an arc is positive or negative relative to the stinger depending on how the metal reacts, at least to a welder. I know that doesn’t make any sense at all but it does to another welder lol



  • As someone who is taking Kaiser Permanente to court over their refusal to release documents, let me confirm that grievance coordinators are the most useless wastes of oxygen ever to steal air on this planet. Even having your lawyer send them the actual text of the law they are currently violating, they will refuse to do anything not explicitly outlined and approved by their policy. Fuck the law. Fuck common sense. If it’s not policy, it doesn’t matter.




  • Nah you’re missing the chemistry. The irritant in teargas is an oil, and using water just spreads around the oil. Enough water will work, sure, but you’re going to suffer the whole time. Milk contains lipids and fats that will actually dissolve the irritant, allowing it to be washed away much easier. Soapy water would also work, but then you’re just irritating your face holes all over again. The risk of bacteria feels like a dog whistle though. Just rinse yourself after, like idk a shower or something, and you’ll be fine. We wouldn’t drink it if it was a plague potion.
