yeah it’s wild to me that petroleum jelly and kerosene come from the same thing

yeah from what people are telling me, we have the capability of processing lower quality crude oil so it makes more sense to export our high quality stuff, then buy the cheap stuff since we can already refine it.

correct me if I’m wrong, but the United States doesn’t even have oil refineries that are capable of making gasoline out of American oil? like we need the type of oil that the middle East has, so we’re constantly trading oil back and forth even though we have plenty of it

I think I’ve heard this is true. something about politicians wanting to look environmentalist and therefore preventing the building of any more refineries

I mean this isn’t surprising to anybody. plenty of luxury cars stolen over here to get shipped to the middle east

I remember reading about a chemistry teacher found dead one morning. he had a habit of consuming the laboratory’s ethanol after hours, and the night before had accidentally poured himself a glass of methanol

the surface is the coolest part. maybe he was talking about the core, which for Sol is 150 million Kelvin. he also didn’t say which sun he was referring to

Vyvanse might work better, or perhaps modafinil. I was on modafinil for about six years and it was great. these days, I actually prefer ephedrine, I can buy it over the counter at the pharmacy. I don’t think that’s what you’re looking for though, but you can certainly try it

I want gaming systems that look like VCRs again

did LTT ever actually fix that issue where they stole somebody’s prototype after trashing it in a review where they tested it on the wrong thing? I had a weird vibe about Linus before that, and just wrote him off after

lol Zendaya brought the personality of a cinder block to that role.

the latest films are just about the visuals, and films like that don’t do it for me. I love the book, and I love the 1984 film (not because it’s a good Dune movie). I also have a soft spot for the Syfy series

dirty knees look at these

also, from what I can find, it looks like the moon only reflects 1-3% of UV light back

count Dracula wasn’t destroyed by sunlight, he just had weaker magical powers. during the day he could only change form at dawn, noon, and dusk, although he maintained that power throughout the entire night.

I wonder how fast they could dig.

doesn’t it have to get minerals or something from the insects it eats? if you fertilize them they’ll die
