Moin! In Ermangelung meines üblichen Duschgels habe ich mir gerade das Weihnachtsgeschenk meines Bruders auf die Primel geschmiert. Es war mit Menthol versetzt, sehr erfrischend und nicht zu empfehlen. Danke, Brudi!

Five tourists in Laos have died from suspected poisoning from alcohol tainted with menthanol in a town frequented by foreign backpackers. Over the course of several days, an Australian, American, British and two Danish tourists were all dead shortly after visiting Vang Vieng. Read more from @USAToday about why menthanol poisoning is so dangerous.

This is how stupid we've become (and #racist the #GOP is):
After RW polling suggested "black voters may turn on #Harris if she bans #Menthol #cigarettes" (no, I'm not kidding), the #DonnieDumbass campaign has come out publicly against any such ban.
But it bears noting that during the T**** Administration, they promised to ban Menthol "e-cigarettes", then when they didn't, they were "criticized by the African American Community". 🤔

Not that I mind them, but..
I'm suddenly seeing #CDC #PSA campaigns saying "hey, uh.. #Menthol #Cigarattes are bad for you too, you know"
Was there confusion about this?

Study reveals #evolution of human #cold and #menthol sensing protein, offering hope for future non-addictive pain therapies.

"Ancestral sequence reconstruction was used to explore the origins of TRPM8 activation modes. By resurrecting key TRPM8 nodes along the human evolutionary trajectory, we gained valuable insights into the trafficking, stability, and function of these ancestral forms. Notably, this approach unveiled the differential emergence of cold and #menthol sensitivity over evolutionary time, providing a fresh perspective on complex polymodal behavior."

Aruba Aloe Hand Sanitizer Gel Alcohol 80%
Aruba Aloe Alcoholada GelCompany recalls #handsanitizer, #aloe gel products that could cause comas, seizures because of #menthol.

I'm no fan of #cigarettes, but banning #menthol is a stupid, pointless, and potentially discriminatory move that isn't accomplishing anything. As soon as the ban was announced, #tobacco companies went to work developing a non-menthol menthol clone that provides a similar experience but without the actual menthol. And just like that, the entire basis for the decision to ban menthol has gone up in smoke.

CW: Americans don't understand prohibition #uspol
Most Americans don't understand how #prohibition works https://www.axios.com/2023/02/03/most-americans-tobacco-ban "The majority of Americans (57%) support a ban on the sale of all #tobacco products and even more support blocking sales of #menthol #cigarettes [favored by Black people] (62%), a CDC study ... found." Not mentioned: how much more policing and jail capacity would be needed to enforce it. Americans have forgotten how cops killed #EricGarner for selling loose cigarettes.
