I'm so sorry this is so random and not really a part of anything but still has to do with the 141. What kind of branch are they in (if you even know either, cause I have no clue) ? Like, are they in the army? Marines??? I'm not entirely sure and it's driving me crazy 😭

(Again, so sorry to bother you with this!)

Task Force 141 itself is a joint special operations task force, but the four members (Price, Gaz, Soap, and Ghost) are all Special Air Service (SAS) which is a spec ops regiment of the British Army.

Resources:

Task Force 141 (reboot) wiki

Special Air Service wiki

And the fact the guys are all SAS can be found on their wiki pages. (I'm too lazy to link them, you can find them from the 141 wiki page)

It always annoyed me when people would say jubilee is useless because her power is to "make fireworks". First of all, it's not fireworks. It's plasma that mimics fireworks. Second of all, even if they were actual pyrotechnics did y'all forget that fireworks are literal bombs? That can grievously injure or outright kill you if used incorrectly? The idea that "it's just fireworks" is cool until you're blind, partially deaf and/or covered in 3rd degree burns, then what?

Okay, I’m looking through a list of herbs for spellcraft, killing time at work, and folks.

You need to be

FUCKING

CAREFUL

So many of these lists refuse to acknowledge the chemical and biological realities of many of these plants. So allow me, your friendly neighborhood autistic witch with a special interest in POISONS to give some safety basics:

Firstly, just fucking google everything before you use it. Yes, everything. Did you know nutmeg is a toxic hallucinogen in high doses? You do now! Especially with how many plants are listed in herbiaries and grimoires by common name it is vital to learn that fly agaric (sometimes just listed as toadstool, which I would like to punch Scott Cunningham for) is amanita muscaria, which can make you trip balls and then kill you. Even just find the Wikipedia page for your herb. Does it have a “toxicology” section? That’s your first clue!

Okay, now you know what it is. You know you’re looking at berries from atropa belladonna, deadly nightshade. You should be safe as long as you aren’t stupid enough to eat them, right? WRONG. Many toxins can be absorbed through the skin and mucus membranes. Just because the blog you found only listed it with a tiny footnote saying not to eat it doesn’t mean you should handle it willy-nilly. Wear gloves. Wash your hands/tools/surfaces. Dispose (carefully) of every stray bit of plant matter that isn’t safely secured in a spell jar or something. Avoid burning anything, as toxins can be released in the smoke. Belladonna is the example here, but you should take this precautions with any toxic spell ingredient. Better safe than sorry.

Speaking of gloves, you might want to wear them with otherwise harmless ingredients too. Did you know citrus peels and juices contain phototoxic compounds? So do aliums (carrots, onions, garlic). If you’re doing your rituals in the Sun, you can get awful burns when the UV light hits those juices on your skin. Again, research your ingredients! Even if you think it’s stupid!

Now, if you want to use toxic herbs as entheogens, that’s at your discretion, but use A LOT of discretion. There are plenty of safe and legal psychoactive substances you can use without worrying about possibly killing yourself. If you’re determined to use a deadly plant, be VERY aware of any potential interactions with your medications or any physical or mental conditions. Be EVEN MORE aware what the effects of overdose and dangerous poisoning look like and SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. Also, when you get to the ER because you’re high on mandrake or whatever, tell them what the hell you took. Antidotes aren’t really a thing irl, but they need to know what sort of supportive care you need to best recover.

This is far more immediate and serious than a spell backfire or impostor spirit or whatever people try to fear monger about in witchy spaces. A bad interaction with powerful toxins can and will cause illness and death. This information should always be on your mind for basic, mundane safety, second only to fire safety (and only second because you’re gonna be dealing with it less often)

Do your research and don’t die!

One thing I will never understand is how confident dumb people are.

#rita talks to herself #swear to god #i will never understand how people on any social media get theories from their ass and post it like it's a fact #i literally have to overthink for a month before posting anything #(this is an accumulation of moments but...) #i was just on twitter and someone was talking about a dark romance book (???) where a woman kills her kids bc they got more attention from #her husband (their dad) than her #and someone really said: that is literally medea #NO IT IS FUCKING NOT #PLEASE #GOOGLE IS FREE #PLS YOU ARE MAKING ME HAVE A MOMENT HERE #not the greek tragedy i have analyzed for uni 100 times get anything wrong but that

when people talk about the name meanings in given they always mention the mafuyu and yuki meaning winter and snow thing. but they never mention the fact that the three original members of the seasons, who literally named their band “the seasons” because their names all meant a certain season (summer, spring, fall), decided to change their band name once mafuyu joined because “the original name would no longer fit” even though MAFUYU’S NAME LITERALLY MEANS WINTER.

#like does this not make anyone else lose their mind because personally it made me lose my mind #like did none of them bother just to check and see what mafuyu’s name meant?? #google is free #i am pretty sure he even mentioned once that his name meant winter 💀 #anyways mafuyu was quite literally their missing piece! #he completed the seasons! #i do love their band name being given though. whatever that means #and also i get that changing their band name was significant bc new beginnings or whatever but the circumstance was just so 😭😭 #given #sato mafuyu #yoshida yuki #uenoyama ritsuka #nakayama haruki #kaji akihiko

I was reading somewhere that the reason for Catherine not being in the pics is because it’s the British Armed Forces Day (it encompasses The British Royal Navy, the British Army,and the British Royal Air Force) and Kate isn’t part of those; it’s that true?

LMAO I swear to God this fandom will never cease to amaze me

The Irish Guards is one of the Foot Guards regiments of the British Army and is part of the Guards Division.

Together with the Royal Irish Regiment, it is one of the two Irish infantry regiments in the British Army.

Catherine is their Regimental Colonel.

Is it ever mentioned why Sith lightsabers are red? What is to ever stop a Sith from pretending to be a Jedi? Just something that they feel below them?

They torture their kyber into turning red, "bleeding" it, and also it's mentioned constantly that the Dark Side has a very specific feeling attached to it.

“Miguel thinks every Spiderman should have Peter’s story with some minor changes”

Miguel wasn’t even BIT by a spider! Do basic research about this character before you talk nonsense.
