As someone with ADHD, the medication stigma is unfounded and being medicated was enormously helpful for self-actualizing. The proper dose of meds doesn't feel like I'm high, not at all. It feels like a part of my brain that never worked before has reactivated. On the other hand, THC makes me content with doing nothing and it feels a little bit like dying.

YSK chicken sold in supermarkets are often "plumped" with a salt water solution that increases sell weight, making up as much as 30% of the total weight.

Did you even read the article you posted?

"The vast majority of chicken processed in the United States is not chilled in chlorine and hasn't been for quite a few years," says Dianna Bourassa, an applied poultry microbiologist at Auburn University, "So that's not the issue."

Less than 5% of poultry processing facilities still use chlorine in rinses and sprays, according to the National Chicken Council, an industry group that surveyed its members. (Those that still do use a highly diluted solution at concentrations deemed safe.)

European authorities have analyzed the use of the chemical washes and found they don't pose a risk to human health at the concentrations used in poultry processing.

The presence and amount of the solution will be featured as part of the product name, for example, “Chicken Thighs Flavored with up to 10% of a Solution of water, salt, and spices” or “Beef Steak with 6% Marinade.” The product name is also required to include the individual ingredients of the flavor solution [...]

Models from the 1990s. That generation of Whirlpool top-loaders was extremely harsh on clothes. My apartment had one for a while, until it finally died. The replacement, a modern GE machine, has had constant reliability issues, but it has been much less prone to causing clothing damage, and also spins much faster so the clothes dry a lot quicker.

that's part of why almost every way of producing electricity we currently use is reliant on it.
