"Google Gemini tried to kill me" - eviltoast

I followed these steps, but just so happened to check on my mason jar 3-4 days in and saw tiny carbonation bubbles rapidly rising throughout.

I thought that may just be part of the process but double checked with a Google search on day 7 (when there were no bubbles in the container at all).

Turns out I had just grew a botulism culture and garlic in olive oil specifically is a fairly common way to grow this bio-toxins.

Had I not checked on it 3-4 days in I’d have been none the wiser and would have Darwinned my entire family.

Prompt with care and never trust AI dear people…

    Are we still on mastodon? In that case, I have severe hayfever shithead! Content warn your posts! ;)

    (im obv joking here, and before somebody tries to honestly use this argument, I do have hayfever, and I have seen others post about this subject (aka is saying ‘touch grass’ a ‘slur’ because of people with allergies/or disabilities) and the consensus was, anybody who tries to make this argument really needs to touch grass).

      Well I’m 100% covered because I have the worst hayfever in existence.

      Like no kidding, I am allergic to every. single. thing that they had on what they call the “tree panel” and the “grass panel”. I need to be on antihistamines for 75% of the year or I cannot function.

      So I’m allowed to use the slur as I’m from the community. Contact me if you want the “g-word pass” I guess.

        if available, I highly recommend a steroid shot from a clinic or allergist for hay fever. the muscle at the injection site will hard lock for a good 5-10 minutes like a Windows PC rolling back an update, but 10 minutes after that your allergies will go away for the rest of the season like actual fucking magic
