i love the kid who's trying to tell his mom to go away, he's not having a psychic attack, he's just got a cold

(also with that dark-type joke is Ironicus the replacement Portaxx)

also, Nutshell's coachella voice sounds so close to Anna Rubinova's teenager voice

I'd be curious to see the number of these crystal healers that also have heavy metal poisoning from cooking with their crystals, because it's not like rocks can have other things in them like oh say Gallium, Mercury, Lead, Arsenic, or a boatload of other stuff you shouldn't ingest.

There was actually a crystal/herb shop in my hometown, and the owner got in a heap of trouble because he was selling asbestos.

For context on Nutshell's Goop refererence early in...

Goop: Jade Eggs For Your Yoni (http://goop.com/better-sex-jade-eggs-for-your-yoni/) (mildly NSFW header image)

Q: What are the benefits?
A: Jade eggs can help cultivate sexual energy, increase orgasm, balance the cycle, stimulate key reflexology around vaginal walls, tighten and tone, prevent uterine prolapse, increase control of the whole perineum and bladder, develop and clear chi pathways in the body, intensify feminine energy, and invigorate our life force. To name a few!

The jade creates kidney strength—it’s known as jing in Chinese energy, and it’s all about sexual potency, and even beauty—if your hormones are balanced, your skin will look better. It’s a holistic combination of things, where one benefit builds to another. Jade also takes away negativity and cleanses—it’s a very heavy material, very powerful.Goop

Specifically Chinese energy? Like I have to travel to Hong Kong in order for this to work, or can I get some energy sent to me in the mail? Do I need to find a j.o. buddy specifically of Chinese descent to help charge my rock? Maybe my djinn knows an energy fulfillment wish I can make.

Seriously though, I wonder how much of these people's knowledge base comes from popular culture and movies like The Golden Child.

Knitting Machine, June 14, 2017, 11:36:48 am
I mean, part of its danger IS in its overuse, but it's because breathing it in causes problems and having large quantities of it stuffed into every part of our day to day lives increases the risks exponentially, not just the hubris of the mundane modern man. It's super interesting the ways in which mystickal types distort even their cherry-picked factoids.

"We used it in ancient Greece and in the 70s! Those two entities are good foundations to what we should and shouldn't use. No regrets in those times! Nope!" :p
