Please, before you comment how evil Monsanto is, read the Cochrane review of glyphosate.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4866614/

This is produced by the Cochran which "is a British international charitable organisation formed to organise medical research findings to facilitate evidence-based choices about health interventions involving health professionals, patients and policy makers. It includes 53 review groups that are based at research institutions worldwide." (from Wikipedia).

Unless you are an expert in the field, you are not likely to do better than a Cochrane systematic review.

The review concludes "Thus, a causal relationship has not been established between glyphosate exposure and risk of any type of LHC." (LHC is lymphohematopoietic cancer).

I find there are a lot of parallels between anti-GMO and anti-vax: calling it "unnatural", saying it is for mainly for profits by multinational corporations, implying conspiracies to suppress evidence against.

Note that also, in the current environment, there is also a lot of money and fame to be gained by being contrarian (especially when you involve trial lawyers). So saying "follow the money" can cut both ways.

> started a white noise and music whenever you entered the bathroom to hide these sounds.

If you are looking for music to play, "Let it go" from Disney's Frozen would be perfect.

It is loud enough to cover the sounds, and it is appropriate to the moment.

"Let it go, let it go, can't hold it back anymore..

I don't care what they're going to say"
