Looks like this time it’s going to be to the Pacific!

I was thinking the same thing. But keep in mind this was a training film for the Office of Strategic Services rather than the regular army. OSS was the forerunner to the CIA, so it’s likely this tactic was intended for use by undercover agents—likely posing as local civilians—to sabotage enemy materiel. It actually…

This is astonishing. This is beyond under regulation and beyond callous negligence. This is what happens when workers lives are treated as a disposable commodity: literal slavery. The lives of these men—dying by the hundreds, and on track to become thousands—is cheaper for Qatar to replace than the labor they provide.

This is so cool! I’ve always wondered how anti-virals stop viruses, since viruses aren’t really alive. I get it now. Thanks for this article!

Damn, LeBron, last dude from Ohio anyone saw fuck up Atlanta that badly was this guy.

Huh? I guess CGI can be done well. This is gorgeous and imaginative, and there is no way it could could have been done with practicals.

If you’re not a heavy drinker (fewer than 3 a day), you might be able to get away with it. The thing about NSAIDs like ibuprofen and aspirin is that when it comes to your liver, they’re actually pretty mild. However, you need to be cautious about bleeding in your stomach and intestines.

Did you also know jet fuel can't melt steel?

It’s done wonders for me too.

I started getting anxiety attacks and my shrink and I found ibuprofen interacting with my Lamictal might have been triggering it. Aleve is actually neproxen sodium, and I’ve found I don’t get an interaction with when I use it instead of ibuprofen.

No. Neither is a good idea if you’ve been drinking. Aspirin an ibuprofen can both cause G.I. bleeding and alcohol (which inhibits clotting) can aggravate the bleeding—to potentially dangerous degree.

Something to consider, ibuprofen can possibly reduce the effectiveness of anti-depressants, particularly SSRIs like fluoxetine and paroxetine (Zoloft, Prozac, Paxil, etc.) and interact in unpleasant ways with mood stabilizers like lamotrigine (Lamictal).

Tylenol won’t do much for body aches. You’d want to take ibuprofen or another NSAID for muscle pain. Anti-inflamitories reduce swelling, and that’s what relieves the pain—it actually treats the physical cause of the pain.

I’m guessing that’s because Aleve will cause your ulcer to perforate and kill you from internal hemorrhaging.

Wonderful Sausage was by far my favorite story from that series!

It was great to hear the publisher was reissuing these books, but I was disappointed to learn the illustrations have been sanitized.

Every time I hear this song, I am absolutely blow away by the production. Max Martin is the greatest pop producer since Brian Wilson.

But I can still keep using them as inhalants, right?
