Thanks for the thoughtful answer!

I too like to partake into cynical sarcastic self loathing , at times.

And I do like the layered ambiguity to whom your comment is addressed.

Sounds like you just want an snswer.

Well, I’m not a brain surgeon. So, I don’t take myself as qualified to make that risk assessment. I agree that all you said up to ‘without consent’ is a very reasonable starting point to think about it, the answer to it should be made by whomever is qualified to answer it.

As for consent, no pacirnt gives direct consent to who’s in/helping the surgery besides the head surgeon. Why do you claim its need in this case?

I don’t understand either if this is even a problem.

True that!

Abstract

Most of the widely used vaginal lubricants in the U.S. and Europe are strongly hyperosmolal, formulated with high concentrations of glycerol, propylene glycol, polyquaternary compounds or other ingredients that make these lubricants 4 to 30 times the osmolality of healthy vaginal fluid. Hyperosmolal formulations have been shown to cause marked toxicity to human colorectal epithelia in vivo, and significantly increase vaginal transmission of genital herpes infections in the mouse/HSV model. They also cause toxicity to explants of vaginal epithelia, to cultured vaginal epithelial cells, and increase susceptibility to HIV in target cells in cell cultures. Here, we report that the osmolality of healthy vaginal fluid is 370 ± 40 mOsm/Kg in women with Nugent scores 0–3, and that a well-characterized three-dimensional human vaginal epithelium tissue model demonstrated that vaginal lubricants with osmolality greater than 4 times that of vaginal fluid (>1500 mOsm/Kg) markedly reduce epithelial barrier properties and showed damage in tissue structure. Four out of four such lubricants caused disruption in the parabasal and basal layers of cells as observed by histological analysis and reduced barrier integrity as measured by trans-epithelial electrical resistance (TEER). No epithelial damage to these layers was observed for hypo- and iso-osmolal lubricants with osmolality of <400 mOsm/Kg. The results confirm extensive reports of safety concerns of hyperosmolal lubricants and suggest the usefulness of reconstructed in vitro vaginal tissue models for assessing safety of lubricants in the absence of direct clinical tests in humans.

Can Nuclear plant electricity production be run in a decentralised way? No?! Not yet!?

Do we have alternatives to nuclear? Yes!?

We should avoid nuclear then.

Sure, sure.

Do they also know who’s in fact going to go and cat the vote?

They are just serving those who can claim back the ticket money. Mostly, you know, those that use your money to pay those tickets.

It’s bullshit to get conservatives out of the house to vote - “anybody but the commies!” - and keep labour voters sleeping late, and making plans to enjoy life, thinking the win is certain.

Thank you!! Much appreciated!

Is there an Alt we can use?

What do you even mean with your word salad?

Your first sentence/paragraph is absurd in the post’s context. Crop rotation will not replenish the soils’ potassium.

And in your 2nd paragraph… what do you mean by “similar purpose”? It’s ambiguous, how you have used it. Also, do you know anything of how fertilizers work?

Quick quiz: Wheat has b12 vitamin and iodine, can you just eat more bread to replenish your body’s neads for those nutrients? Or does a balanced diet need to be …balanced for all nutrients?

EDIT: I think Musk went of the rails after he got COVID, I speculate. It’s my own take on creating a conspiracy theory.

Musk see!

Sometimes I think if these text creations/press releases are made in one of those Russian-like content factories aimed at polarising people.

I don’t think it would fit. Besides, it is said they should not hide their faces!

Really? Why?

“Who would have known that the mighty people of Yemen would challenge the empires of the world,” he added, referring to the Houthi attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea that have led to two nights of retaliatory strikes by the US and UK.

This does not sound like somebody interested in promoting peace.
