You can't even stop it here. Start here.

These are examples of foolhardy people who miscalculated risks. But at the same time these are also examples of people who were solely motivated by selfish reasons. There is a romance to it if you squint but it is not the same.

The mountaineers knew the odds are long and did it anyway for a cause greater than themselves. That is what makes them heroic.

This is absolutely true I was throttled and some stalkers flag and hide my posts replying to you trying to confirm this which is unbelievably gross. :/

I hope you see this I'm sorry if it bummed you out. My apologies.

You will find that on occasion grown men throw caution to the wind and consciously take seemingly unnecessary irresponsible risks for personal glory and the greater good.

  As a consequence of World War I, there was a lack of a whole generation of strong young men.

  The British wanted the climb to be an example of British spirit to lift morale.

God bless, reading this only makes me think of these heroes even more charitably. Such irresponsible people are once again desperately needed.

Yes it was obvious bait mr 5d chess. Nobody looking at this thinks it is mysterious either.

Since you unflagged it and appear to be suddenly as befuddled as I am about why it was flagged in the first place it seems that you agree with me that it shouldn't have been.

I'd be pretty concerned about these mysterious false flags.

P.S. - Mr Slater immediately jumped to your defense with the usual party line. Possibly a bit too quickly this time, your overwhelming fairness is showing guys. I'm touched.

I'm more partial to the theory tonynator puts forth.

That is a thing. I met a mother-daughter duo, they'd travel with a little bag and disappear to do that and it wasn't a big deal and they claimed results.

Really no idea, there are quite of few of these potential treatments, people actively try and hack it. It depends on the specific situation what is appropriate to try.

I'm in full remission for a very long time already against all odds. It completely ruined my childhood and I'm thankful for everyday and live with it as a sword of Damocles like so many others.

The correlation does not mean the microplastics are the thing causing IBD. It probably means they are exasperating it for various reasons. Goddamit.

Incidentally so do things like poppy seeds.

I got hit with this at 10 years old. Suspiciously to me after returning from a year in the US, before that there was no sign of any problems. IBD presents all over the world and I'm guessing predates the microplastics phenomena.

The other interesting correlation I know of is a lack of exposure to dirty things as a toddler. I've sort of given up any hope that it will be figured out in my lifetime despite occasional wiggles of hope from articles like this.

Generally in the community people theorize all kinds of things about diet and some are lucky to reach and stay in remission by eating a narrow diet that agrees with them - but what exactly that is varies wildly across individuals. I've never found a common thread.

That is fantastic and congratulations! Actually hit me in the feels a little.

I'm so very nervous about the side effects, I know a lot of people like this. My faith is shook and I worry but I could never argue against it either.

Rooting for them/you to complete the journey and get off this shit successfully asap and never relapse.

Good luck buddy! Life changing !

You don't need to care about that anymore it is rolled up into the battery product.

Can you really put a price on fun? No fun allowed? Why do we even need playing cards in the first place that's a waste of good paper.

I get the argument here but you really should keep things in perspective. E-waste is a real and massive problem. This is a tiny tiny project it is neither here nor there.

Say it blows up and becomes extremely popular (it won't)? Like any other piece of electronics solutions will be available. Cross that bridge when you get there.

The fun and education aspect is in fact better than physical cards and worthwhile.

Also if we really think deeply about it this project may end up being better for the environment not worse.
