Next time I am in Malaysia I'll procure seeds. 😇
"Suspensories" is the underwear. I kept thinking "suspenders"
Nice!
Eh honestly I want something studied and approved by the FDA, I'm not super willing to risk 18 years of financial responsibility on what amounts to a home remedy
Here is some info on the different methods, although very basic https://www.livescience.com/54105-which-male-birth-control-works.html
Yeah, I hear you
I trust good science more than the FDA. The government is swayed by politics. Science is science.
Wouldn't the government jump at the chance to reduce accidental children and thus state dependence?
I trust science too, but there haven't been that many studies done on these methods, although they seem to work if you're doing them consistently
I do not think the government jumps on anything because it is good. They do it because the politicians decided it is in their personal best interest.
Otherwise, explain to me why it is illegal to cut hair without a license in some states.
Well, I understand being ginger about methods that seem too "home-remedy-ey"
Are you serious? What states?
Oooh, it's fine if you do it for free
There are raids. People get arrested. It benefits no one but the industry that lobbied for it. It saves no one.
Yeah, technically tons of things are illegal to do for money without a license
Doing it for free doesn't make it any safer. Being safer is the premise for requiring a license.
Nah, it's to protect the industry
That is like saying you can own a nucnear bomb as long as you built it yourself.
She had the license and everything but other wedding photographer complained that it was unfair competition
Also the industry protecting itself at her expense.
Yeah
Same kind of thing, and stupid. They wanted the right to overcharge
She ended up switching to taking pictures of babies, apparently people are less annoyed about competition in that field
At least there are clever ways around it sometimes. I like that Uber has killed the taxi monopoly.
We just need better tools to cut our own hair.
Depending on the haircut, you can get a trimmer that does the job fine
Harder if you have longer hair though
I go to one person for a haircut. I trusted her for years.
I tried that once. The result was not pretty.
10 bucks (15 with tip but still).
I had long hair. I wanted to cut it myself real bad.
I will surely try again sometime. Preferably on a weekend so I can still save myself before Monday morning.
I usually cut my hair myself, but I also don't care too much if it looks a bit weird. I have short hair right now, but I used to have shoulder-length hair. I used scissors then, not trimmers.
I have really long hair now. 🙂 I'm thinking of growing it out more, actually. Maybe dying it something neon. Idk
My long hair had to be sacrificed. Its fine when living on a boat and working remotely. Not that great for job interviews in the city.
That's a real real shame. I'm sorry to hear that. Surely in the city they would be open to you having a pony tail, at least? I thought cities were less sexist about this stuff. :/

@Bobby_Hill and one could be Hitler, but that's not really relevant, is it?
