 clearly kids these days aren’t smoking enough 
 apparently some people have a problem with breaking down folic acid, so it builds up and makes them a tardy party.

its big in pre natal vitamins so they dont get spina bifida, but if left unchecked it can become toxic

not saying that's the key to everything but i think we're looking at a population who are overloaded with toxins from several vectors

shit look at a loaf of bread at the store, a bunch of all kinds of shit in there, including folic acid

even things like heavy metal toxicity are pretty common and most people have no clue to how even address it let alone be aware its a thing

fondle slab intelligence fallacy 
 @dictatordave @c215902f @Ademan I've started saying. If it has a barcode don't eat it. Another NA listener posted this last week 
 good rule of thumb

notice how people react to you when you're standing there for a minute reading the ingredients, i get so many 'wtf are you doing weirdo' type looks lol

i'm reading the goy slop bag leave me alone 
 @dictatordave @c215902f @Ademan yeah.
Lady yesterday was eating dried mango. Saying how healthy it was. I said it's flavoured sugar😮.
People don't look at what they are eating. 
 @dictatordave @Ademan How do you know about folic acid issues? I think I may have that issue.
