What'd kill me is a "Chunky's dead" reference. You know they're at least playing some version of the DK Rap at some point.

You know what, you're partly correct! Barr is an absolute bitch who should have taken the opportunity presented after the whole racism thing to just disappear.

However, I've just never found Rosie to be a likeable person. Even going back to her stand up days, I've always found her annoying and abrasive. I do very much appreciate her tearing Trump apart though!

I really don't like her either, but damn, that got an authentic "Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho damn..." belly laugh out of me.

My strongly republican coworker was gloating about prices coming down back in February and was actively looking for houses to retire to in Florida and Texas. Now she insists on doing company shopping at Aldi because "Shoprite has just gotten too ridiculously expensive." A couple weeks ago she admits to me, "I don't think I'll ever be able to stop working now."

Aww... No shit... Welcome to the club... We can't afford matching t-shirts.

Him, Musk, and Noem have blood on their hands, children's blood.

Heartless, evil bastards...

This is what happens when you let children use any social media.

A whole typical cigarette contains around 10-12mg of nicotine. The wiki says 30-60mg is potentially fatal to an adult, but that it could potentially take as much as 500mg. So for an adult, unlikely. For a child, I see mixed things saying 1 cigarette could be fatal. This says 1-13mg per kg for an infant. So maybe, depending on the size of the butt and the child?

So I just did a bit of research on it and according to Wikipedia and several journals it seems to be definitely possible for someone to die from nicotine poisoning. The wiki article cites two child deaths. I also found at least one article where nicotine poisoning was deemed the cause of death. Warning, it does contain shots of ther person's dissected esophagus and their stomach contents. There's a NLM journal article that pops up on a child committing suicide by nicotine ingestion, but the article was missing. So I can say it definitely has happened. I just couldnt find any readily available mortality studies showing how often it happens.

As for anecdotal evidence, I had a client with Pica, who would eat cigarette butts among other things and be vomiting all night.

 

It's been 30 years since I've had potato salad. The last time was grandmother's when she was still alive. She used to make it for every family summer party. My mom told me I'd have made her proud.
