Trump: “Fuck these motherfuckers, let’s take a picture.” Treason and espionage in the American people’s faces. A mutilator and brother of the 9/11 mastermind. All for Trump building contracts and family enrichment.

Fatty acids with terminal 5-C rings are very rare. The most famous is chaulmoogric acid from “chaulmoogra oil” found in the seeds of Hydnocarpus spp. Its most famous use: a topical treatment for leprosy. 📷: H. pentandra by Siddarth Machado CCBYNC2 #Achariaceae #Botany 🌾🧪

What was the most elaborate (or dangerous) special effect you made in high school for a project?

Mine? Exploding capacitors as a visual/audio way to show a "brain boosting" tech.

Poor Mike. 😬
