Trump’s Idea to Bleach Lungs to Kill Coronavirus Alarms Experts

  1. Does this new coffee have higher caffeine content, or is it just a matter of taste that makes 2 cups enough?

  2. I like coffee to be hot but I know that bringing it to a boil diminishes its full flavor. (From my experience with Turkish coffee, as I noted earlier, and from your comments to that effect with instant.) So it's a game of chicken for me to see how hot I can get it without compromising it. I like to drink it slowly, and so heat helps. That's also why I don't add sugar or milk; the robustness of the flavor keeps me drinking it in small sips rather than gulping it down.

    Caffeine feels higher but a bit rich also. I tried using less howver suddenly watery but it is nice to change flavour a bit anyway. Over two months in lockdown and anything different it good.

    Been extended another week here till the 31st.

  4. I think I may need to stop drinking coffee. I've been having it every day now for a short while; usually two half-cups, occasionally three, and always in the early morning. I have not been sleeping well at all now with some regularity. It didn't start right away after I began drinking coffee daily, but it slowly crept up on me.

    Since I do occasionally have fitful sleep, I attributed it at least in part to my workout regimen. And while that may have been a factor, in the last 2 weeks I only worked out once a week (Mondays), even though I was scheduled to work out twice this week. So, I reduced my frequency, but the insomnia persists. Since nothing else is otherwise going on, I think the coffee is a contributing factor. Before the coronavirus, I used to have a cup on weekends at my favorite cafe, and didn't seem the worse for wear. But this daily business has to stop:

    Speaking of apes, bananas, the potassium and triptophan cancel the effects. A batista told me this, its how they manage it.

    Here of course we can buy massive bunches of 20 etc and plataneau (the giant green ones) are used in cooking.

  6. Good pic. :D

    I eat bananas daily. Usually two. I also like them a bit green, otherwise I find them too sweet. I prefer to slice them and then freeze them. Then, when I have a hankering, I take it out of the freezer and let it thaw for a few minutes. So the slices are very firm but not quite rock-hard frozen. It’s my “ice cream.”

    So although I include bananas in my diet, they did not manage to offset the effects of the coffee. Assuming, of course, that the coffee is to blame.

    It probably is, going from clues from discussions I would focus on anything that boosts intestinal seratonin.

    Of course I meant barrista not batista the former president of Cuba :) speaking of, this landed in my phone today. I want to do this at the local university, every year freshers love redoing the Mao, Marx, Che etc. graffiti on fresh painted walls. This will blow their minds.

    Where could they have gotten such a deplorable idea?

    Almost 50 North Texans Drank Bleach This Month, Poison Center Warns ‘Stop, It Won’t Cure COVID’


    DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) – Following 46 cases of bleach ingestions in the North Texas Poison Center region since the start of August, experts are again warning people that drinking the chemical won’t prevent COVID-19.

    The organization pointed to “misleading and inaccurate information circulating online about how to prevent the spread of COVID-19,” for an uptick in poisonings.

    The FDA has long warned that drinking chlorine dioxide products can lead to “severe vomiting, severe diarrhea, life-threatening low blood pressure caused by dehydration and acute liver failure.”

    But you can potentially reduce potential spread of the coronavirus by cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched surfaces, such as tables, doorknobs, light switches, handles, desks, toilets, faucets and sinks with bleach.

    The Mayo Clinic recommends making a disinfecting solution by combining 4 teaspoons of household bleach and 1 quart of water. Read and follow instructions and precautions. For example, wear gloves and make sure there’s good airflow in the room. Don’t mix bleach with ammonia or any other cleanser — the combination could produce toxic fumes.


    Bottom line — do not drink bleach, under any circumstance, ever.
