Health Alert:
This is a health warning for Time Agents visiting soda fountains and apothecaries between 1868-1930! Be extremely cautious!
While citric acid is a safe food additive in some eras, from the Reconstruction era through the Great Depression it contains dangerous quantities of LEAD.
In this era, citric acid is made in containers sealed with lead soldering, which would probably be fine if the acid itself wasn’t made from concentrated lemon juice.
Now I know…the urge to hop to 1890’s and enjoy a tart lemon soda at a Victorian era chemist’s counter is overwhelming. But!! There are safer, sanity-saving alternatives.
Instead of taking chances with citric acid, consider a sparkling phosphate soda! Delicious, tangy and completely free of toxic metals. You’ll be saying, “Yum!” instead of dying prematurely of kidney damage and nervous system derangement.
Phosphate sodas are this era’s safe sipping choice! Now, don’t be afraid of the chemically sounding name, this is nearly the same harmless phosphoric acid found in modern Coca Cola, balsamic vinegar and pickles! It will not erode your bones!
Try a tasty hot or cold phosphate soda in all the popular flavors of the era:
- Lemon
- Cherry
- Chocolate
- Angostura
- Egg
Thank you, and be safe!
V/r,
Agent Kay

“Water is life's matter and matrix, mother and medium. There is no life without water.”
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Remember headlines similar to this?
“England’s rivers, lakes and streams ‘among worst in Europe’ amid concern over sewage and farm pollution.”  (Independent: 15/09/21)
And more recently:
“Sewage entered rivers and seas on average 825 times a day last year Water companies released raw sewage into rivers and seas in England for more than 1.75 million hours last year. (BBC News: 31/03/23)
Does our Tory government care? No, not one jot. This is what we read in the media today.
“Michael Gove is set to announce a weakening of water pollution rules placed on housing developers in England, in a move that has angered groups across the UK’s green economy.”  (edie.net: 29/08/23)
Gove is doing this to encourage more house building which up until now has been supposedly held back by anti-pollution laws and the cost this has for housing developers. From now on the building industry will not be held accountable for increases in nitrates and phosphates into out waterways.
In October 2021 the Tory government published a paper entitled: Nitrates: challenges for the water environment.  In it they listed the dangers of too much nitrate in our waterways:
Risk to human health
Eutrophication of lowland surface waters (Eutrophic waters are often murky and may support fewer large animals, such as fish and birds, than non-eutrophic waters.)
Acidification and eutrophication of upland waters
Adverse impact on Groundwater Dependent Terrestrial Ecosystems.
In short, nitrates poison the water both above and below ground and can be a risk to human health as well as to birds, animals and aquatic life in general.
In December 2022, the government published another report:.
It found that phosphates cause eutrophication in the same way nitrates do:
“Eutrophication increases the cost of drinking water abstraction and treatment, adversely affects angling, water sports and other recreational activities, and causes the loss of sensitive plants and animals in rivers and lakes.” (Environment Agency: Phosphorus and freshwater eutrophication: challenges for the water environment./ December 2022)
So, we have a government who knows the dangers of increasing the levels of nitrates and phosphates in our waterways yet they  decide to relax laws controlling these chemicals  regardless of the environmental consequences.
 Why!
The answer is, as is so often the case, “follow the money”.
Craig Bennett, Chief Executive of the Wildlife Trust had this to say on the Today programme this morning.
“I've been at the last few Conservative Party conferences over the last few years, and when you walk into the exhibition space, the biggest, fanciest exhibitions are by the big house building organisations. The most lavish parties and receptions put on at the Conservative Party conference over the last few years have been from the house building industry. They seem to have plenty of money when it comes to them lobbying, and guess what? - we discover this morning that money talks.”
To back up this claim, we find that in 2021, "property developers gave Tories £892,00 in the first three months of that year. And in May this year we read that:
“Millions in Tory donations at risk as property developers hit back. Housebuilders and developers - who in the past have accounted for around a fifth of all donations - have turned off the taps.”(Independent: 30/05/23)
There is a sneaking suspicion that the relaxation of water pollution laws has more to do with Tory Party funding than the housing shortage. Given the housing industry is one of the Conservative Party’s biggest donors, is it any wonder that under the new law, developers will no longer have to dip into their profits to offset nutrient pollution from new homes.
And just to prove the Tory Party has a sense of humour, not only will our waterways be more polluted than ever before but:
“Scrapping housebuilder water pollution rules in England to cost taxpayer £140m”  (Guardian: 29/08/23)

PHYLLON / PHOSPHATE
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i redesigned this goofball soooo why not share him
and i got lore for him too yippee
------------------------------
{LORE}
PHYLLON
A third party named “Executed Xero” had gained a huge amount of DNA from Sonic the hedgehog. 
They used the DNA and tried modifying it to create “the true fastest being alive”.
While the scientists were away, the system containing the DNA with modifiers malfunctioned.
The system breaking led the modifiers to not be used correctly and made a chemical error with the DNA.
The result of an impossible chemical error made a random corpse morph into a distorted looking Sonic the hedgehog.
The cracks created as PHYLLON shouldn’t have been made by the chemical mix.
The body has decayed but stopped by some type of magic to be the current shape it is at.
PHOSPHATE
Unlike PHYLLON, PHOSPHATE was made by the world corrupting because apparently two entities were inside of each other.
The system that malfunctioned seemed to respond to everything from PHYLLON as if they were glitched.
It was the back of PHYLLON, and it grew sentient.
As if it wanted to be alive and live its own path.
Then a giant and more corrupted looking being similar to PHYLLON ripped its way out.
PHOSPHATE was all the murderous intent PHYLLON had and it all went into PHOSPHATE.
The world glitched to normal as it was finally fixed from it, and the system that was bugging, shutdown permanently.
They see each other as linked brothers as they were created by a system error.

Pollution from phosphate mines continue to impact Florida
According to a report by the Bradenton Herald, a power failure at Piney Point’s pretreatment facility in Manatee County caused 6,000 gallons of untreated waste to spill into the surrounding area on the morning of Mar. 21. The facility is one of many phosphate mining plants in Florida under heavy scrutiny for the pollution they produce from both standard operations and accidents such as the one at…

"Always look at who's benefiting."
Suppose most of us spent the weekend reading about the developing Israel-Iran conflict.
Many fertiliser productions are located in the region and neighbouring countries, though.
Here is a short analysis related to the countries involved in the conflict as well as the indirect consequences:
Direct participants:
- Israel - about 530k tonnes per month of MOP production
- Iran - about 650k tonnes per month of urea production. Also, a lot of Turkmen sulphur is shipped through the country’s ports.
- Syria - I would add Syria with 100-150k tonnes per month of phosphate rock production (mostly for shipment to India but also some European countries).
Second-tier countries affected:
- Jordan - about 60k tonnes per month of phosphates production and also phosphate rock
- Saudi Arabia - about 360k tonnes per month of phosphate production; Kuwait
- Almost all countries of the Persian Gulf with 1.7m tonnes per month of urea production
Third-tier countries affected:
- Libya - urea and ammonia production
- Tunisia - phosphate and phosphoric acid production
- Egypt - about 550k tonnes per month of urea production, also TSP, SSP and phosphate rock
- Algeria - 130k tonnes per month of urea production
- Morocco - about 845k tonnes per month of phosphate production
What about the North African and East Mediterranean producers? I still think they are all in a relatively safe situation; however, the delivery routes east of Suez will be changed to long-haul shipments through the Horn of Good Hope. If the conflict continues to escalate, this could lead to some export interruptions from the region.
Bloomberg reported yesterday:
"The attack on Israel by Iran was feared by markets already last week and partly explains the pullback on Friday. It seems that the fact that 1) Israel and the US were able to intercept the vast majority of drones and missiles; 2) the Biden administration's comment that they will not support any Israeli retaliation move seemed to calm down investors for the time being.
Indeed, President Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a call on Saturday that the U.S. won't support any Israeli counterattack against Iran, a senior White House official told Axios.
Bottom line: Further escalation does not seem to be the core scenario at this stage."
And I sincerely hope they are right.

Back when life on our planet began and the first microorganisms had to feed on inorganic compounds such as phosphite. Its energy metabolism is based on the oxidation of phosphite to phosphate, but how exactly does the biochemical mechanism work. This bacterium is an autotrophic organism, like a plant, but it doesn't need sunlight but phosphorus.
Two strains of strictly anaerobic bacteria have been isolated so far which use the low-potential electrons of phosphite oxidation in their energy metabolism.

Phosphate forms the “backbone” of RNA and DNA and is also a key component of cell membranes. The concentrations of phosphate required to form these biomolecules in the lab are hundreds to 1 million times higher than the levels normally found in rivers, lakes or in the ocean. This has been called the “phosphate problem” for the emergence of life — a problem that soda lakes may have solved.

The plants are consumed by animals and, when both die, bacterial action converts the organic phosphate back into inorganic phosphate.

The phosphorus cycle (figure 14.22) essentially involves the interconversion between inorganic and organic phosphate (here, organic phosphate refers to biological molecules such as DNA, RNA, ADP and ATP).
