Voltaire 5,207 Posted March 5, 2023 17 minutes ago, GutterBoy said: There is no real discussion to be had when discussing tap water turning someone gay. Quote More and more research, however, is showing that atrazine interferes with endocrine hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone - in fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles, laboratory rodents and even human cell lines at levels of parts per billion. Recent studies also found a possible link between human birth defects and low birth weight and atrazine exposure in the wombΒ https://vcresearch.berkeley.edu/news/pesticide-atrazine-can-turn-male-frogs-females Quote Hayes said that "when you have studies all over the world showing problems with atrazine in every vertebrate that has been looked at - fish, frogs, reptiles, birds, mammals - all of them can't be wrong." "What people have to realize is that, just as with taking pharmaceuticals, they have to decide whether the benefits outweigh the costs," he said. "Not every frog or every human will be affected by atrazine, but do you want to take a chance, what with all the other things that we know atrazine does, not just to humans but to rodents and frogs and fish?"Β https://vcresearch.berkeley.edu/news/pesticide-atrazine-can-turn-male-frogs-females This chemical is focking up the frogs pretty good and if it affects their testosterone levels, it may well affect human levels as well. There's a reason testosterone levels are significantly lower than 50 years ago, this may be it. The fock do I know though, I'm not going on a limb. I only see low birth weights and birth defects mentioned for humans, it's only for sure "turning frogs gay." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let's look at the facts: 1) Densantis passes a bill limiting gay talk in school, the infamous "Don't Say Gay" bill 2) Disney doesn't like it and speaks out against the bill 3) Desantis doesn't like Disney speaking out against him and passes another bill dissolving Reedy Creek in an effort to punish Disney 4) This bill results in billions of dollars of debt being transferred to the citizens of the area.Β Whoops. 5) Desantis backpedals, and instead passes a new bill saying you can keep Reedy Creek, bit we're going to oversee it. 6) Disney says, sure, and then has the current board push through a bunch of rules before Desantis's friends can join 7) Desantis gets his friends to join, but now they see the old board made it so they can't do anything for 30 years. Desantis is a joke, has no idea what he's doing, and is getting b1tch slapped on every move. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
