    Good to see Boaz doing this! I am privileged to have been briefly interviewed because I do pawpaw parties. It was the timeframe of the 40s that led to pawpaws becoming rare in highly industrialized areas like Donora that led to the extirpation of a butterfly called the zebra swallowtail. Previously I thought that it disappeared earlier but the evidence points to the war effort so I can blame N*zis for a lot of it.

    literally so cornyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy "my fat ass is not a costume" its so tone deaf and self absorbed and precisely the type of thesis that I hate in a creative. if youre enlightened and all bodies are beautiful why are you continuing this self hate by giving fatphobia the time of day to waste your creative talents commenting on being big backed. exercise regularly, eat well and please drop the victimhood hamskin.

    This should NOT be a "secret!" But a lesson as to the effects of UNREGULATED ECONOMIC "PROSPERITY." Regulations exist due to this and similar acts of corporate malfeasance. Any regulatory change deserves and requires a"scalpel to trim," and NOT a sledgehammer or axe to obliterate. For if the "children are truly our future," we owe them at a minimum. An inhabitable world with breathable air and drinkable water!
