    Stop it before you give some MAHA influencers the idea for a new “ditch your mood stabilizers, lick used batteries instead!” trend… 😵

      Licking batteries has been proven to lighten your mood according to three major scientists with published papers in Nordic countries.

      Used batteries just come with the extra benefit of being multi use, first in your regular electronics, and then in your synapses.

        How else would you recharge after a long day?

  That’s the advantage of sourcing it locally, of course. I have a feeling these guys have gamified lithium collection through an app like uber or grubhub or airbnb, ultimately taking all the advantage we once had for simply being local…

  Yeah, but with him you gotta go over to his shitty apartment and let him charge a bit to make the deal
