Alpha-Gal may sound empowering, but the nickname, short for galactose-alpha-1, 3-galactose, is a sugar molecule that might just cause you to become allergic to meat.
The sugar molecule is spread from the Lone Star tick bite, named for the Texas-shaped marking on its back. Once bitten by a Lone Star tick, the body's immune system is rewired

Isn't the meat industry like the 3rd largest industry in the US? One of my hippie friends posts about how it is but who knows how accurate that is. Wonder how long until they start spraying for them so people keep eating meat?

Soon ticks will create plant allergies from their bites, and in time the meat allergy ticks will mate with plant allergy ticks and create a hybrid offspring that will create allergies for both with one bite.

This is our extinction event.

nature creates these abominations because we need to be controlled.

we shouldn't worry about global warming, cause it's inevitable.

earth has survived billions of years, through ice ages, volcanic eruptions, meteors and asteroids. Monsoons, tidal waves, tectonic movement.

and we're worried about 120 years of carbon and plastic ruining the atmosphere.

Allergic to meat? How exactly does that work? Don't different meats have different geneotc compositions. It's like saying that you're allergic to drinking liquids. It doesn't add up and I think this might be a conspiracy that's being spread by the vegan illuminati

I'm fine. Apparently, only mammalian meats trigger the allergy and I usually only eat birds and fish and seafood anyway

Or you could just use distilled white vinegar and water, mixed with Eucalyptus oil to cover the vinegar scent as a natural repellent. You know....instead of killing yourself and all.

I'd been thinking about that, and I already came up with a much more reasonable solution.

Clearly we need firebomb nature.

Genetic compositions have many things in common on a molecular level, such as the four base pairs, common accessory proteins and carbohydrates. Think of it in similar terms to how billions of humans have specific blood types due to common blood cell surface proteins.

In the case of this carbohydrate (which is normally found on the surface of non-primate mammalian cells such as those found from deer or squirrels), after a tick bites such a mammal and then bites a human our body will target the carbohydrate in an immune response within our blood and therefore lead to the creation of antibodies which will then react to even foods consumed.

Simce the effect can onset 4-8 hours after ingestion, that is a big freaking deal. Imagine going into anaphylactic shock, AND YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHY.

Lmao what? The mark looks nothing like Texas. Or even a star for that matter. More like a fucked up maple leaf.

Anyway, I spend a fuckload of time in the woods. I've encountered bears, coyotes, crazed raccoons, swarms of hornets and endless other wildlife dangers. None worry me more than ticks.

They're the only reason I even bother with DEET still. My body doesn't even react to mosquitoe bites anymore.

i love the taste of ground beef, especially in the george foreman grill (sure cuts the cooking time).
cooked a few burgers for dinner (haven't eaten all day) even just for being basic stuff it's pretty good.

2 slices of cheese, jalopeno mustard, bbq sauce with cooked beef.
