strange feelings re Daisy posted:THE COMMIES dumped all their boron on the Chernobyl reactor after the core exploded. That's why they wanted ours so badly. The Cold War was really about boron and when the Soviet Union couldn't get more they collapsed.  What can we do??? WHAT CAN WE DOOOO!!!!???

 Why isn't Elon Musk afraid of the virus? Well, what's his tunnel company named? THE BORING COMPANY. Very clever, Elon, no one (until now) had figured out that it's actually THE BORON COMPANY. And what's the only product they've ever actually made? FLAMETHROWERS!  And what do you do with flamethrowers? That's right, you KILL BEES! And what do bees give us? BORON! My god, it's all so clear. Elon is trying to keep the boron out of the hands of normal people like us by having his supporters torch beehives, so that he can gather up all the world's boron and take it to Mars! (I still haven't figured out where his kid's name fits into all this. Is "X Æ A-12" a chemical formula for a boron compound????)

Boron is just misdirection. Forsythia is where we should be focusing all of our efforts.

oh god, my dad has been pushing the boron miracle cure poo poo on anyone who will listen for the past 4 or 5 years. he and my mom both put borax, the cleaning product, in their water and drink it every day to "treat [their] boron deficiency". it's really weird. so far my dad has claimed it cured all sorts of ailments that he never even mentioned having before he started drinking borax, like arthritis. he also claims it makes him feel younger. there's really no end to what he'll attribute to boron. for example, he had a very high score on a calcium test recently, which generally indicates a lot of arterial buildup (in short, atherosclerosis/heart disease), which he brushed off as a harmless side effect of taking boron. in fact, he even claimed it was good... something about the high calcium in his bloodwork meant that the boron was cleaning his arterial walls and shedding it into his bloodstream, so it's actually evidence of healing. he also claimed that he had a "tooth split" where one of his molars fractured due to new growth of some kind in the middle causing the tooth to split and that his dentist had "never seen anything like it". clearly a sign of boron at work! the only thing he won't attribute to it are the new GI/inflammation issues he's been having in the past few years. he can't think of any reason why drinking powdered floor cleaner might be related. my dad isn't exactly stupid, but he's definitely an idiot. he's got a phd (physics), but he believes climate change is a hoax. he believes that coronavirus is simultaneously a hoax, a man-made virus, and that he already had it in early december when he got sick during flu season. anyway, i tried to figure out whether there was anything to his boron craze when it started, and he linked me a few articles. as far as i could tell back then, they all traced back to a single sketchy paper by an australian doctor. i wasn't able to uncover any large body of evidence or followups. that doesn't necessarily mean that boron deficiency isn't a real issue or that supplementing it could help with some conditions, but the leap of faith required to go from that paper to drinking floor cleaner is too much for me. i haven't followed up with the science at all in recent years. who knows, maybe there's something to it. maybe someone will win a nobel prize for proving that we all need to supplement boron someday. but for now, i'm sticking with my leading indicator, which is that the more my dad posts about something on nextdoor, the less likely it is to be true. welp, that's my boron story for this dying gay forum.

Borax isn't just a cleaning product, friend! It can be a flux, a fire retardant, or even an insecticide. It also has a long history of being put in the mouth. It's infinitely flexible! .... I mean, people did stop eating it in a good chunk of the world. I guess Big Pharma decided it's a bad idea. But they used to!

Guys president A Fancy Hat has caught wind of this and released the following statement:A Fancy Hat posted:What the hell do you have to lose? That's my.... that's the thing. We've all heard of boron, or borax is the company name, the product name. They put it on the shelves, you look at it, and you think "This looks like something else I used to use, something that made me feel incredible." So maybe you grab some borax, maybe you use the terrific little razor to cut it into lines, and then you smell it. Stop and smell the flowers but, in this case? The flowers are the borax.
