I have had Maalox dumped into my eyes on many an occasion and haven't suffered any ill effects, but maybe if I become addicted to throwing rocks at cops it'll start to take its toll.
But I can also say with certitude the thing that will probably deal horrible long term damage to your eyes is repeated untreated exposure to all the fun varieties of tear gas the police have. Rinsing with bottled water or LAW is going to do far less harm than that so I wouldn't discourage anyone from it.
In my experience people don't like being told their diet is bad.
Feral horses are a problem in the American plains and west with one of the issues being the fact their carcasses will attract grizzlies or black bears which can then encroach on humans. Hiking out, digging a massive pit, and then burying a horse really isn't an option so they blow them up to increase the speed of decomposition.
They also degrade and destroy native grassland and the whole problem could be easily solved with a cull of the herds, but some dipshit-wanabe-cowboys are obsessed with "saving" "wild" horses so now the federal government has to spend over a $100 million on horse contraception to keep the population vaguely in check.
TDLR: We blow up a bunch of horses corpses every year because of a politically connected nonprofit.
Don't eat the onion.
Fellas, is it gay to speak Gaulish?
I'm all for sanctioning them too. Economic sanctions are the bare minimum we should be doing to genocidal authoritarians.
Political agenda is a funny euphemism for imperialist invasion and genocide.
I started a Bochet Cyser this month; really looking forward to seeing how it tastes. Its my first bochet and first cyser, so really exploring new territory.
I've got my Tang ferment that I mentioned in my other post and some Fireweed wine, which is basically a sugar wine, but its bright fuchsia.
Currently mulling over ideas for what to do with all the blueberries I've harvested. I'll probably just be boring and make a wine but if anyone has any dumb ideas I'd love to try them.
I'm currently brewing up a batch of Tang! We'll know in a week or so if it was a success.
I'm hoping the synthetic chemicals that give it a citrus flavor are anathema to my yeast so I'll have something refreshing in a month or so.
Autobrewery syndrome is rare and probably has more to do with your diet and antibiotic use than consuming a few actively fermenting drinks.
Some drinks like pulque are traditionally drunk that way and that's why they can't be shipped long distances. So if its been done by other cultures for thousands if years, I'm not a doctor, but I'm gonna wager its fairly safe.
The Federal Government actually owns most of the west. Its the reason why there's more land for public recreation and national parks in that region of the country.
You can typically hike, camp, or explore BLM land, which is the majority of it, as much as you want so long as you don't start any fires or litter.
Eagles are fucking bastards. Vicious pidgins with legal protection.
