    Here's a joke my dad told me about Boris Johnson
    A newly dead man arrives at the gates to heaven and is shown through by an angel. While walking, the man sees a load of clocks on a wall. He asks what they are. The angel goes "they are the clocks of lies. Every lie a person tells, their clock ticks once."
    The man looked at the clocks, seeing one didn't tick. "Who's is that?" He asked. "That's Mother Teresa's clock, she never lied." The angel responded.
    The man looks at other clocks and asks "Where's Boris Johnson's? I can't see it anywhere." The angel grins and says, "Oh it's in the main room, God is using it as a ceiling fan."

      No that would be a really good idea. Of course the only problem possible with that is that, if we can’t harvest enough of it to lower the gas emissions, we might have to start farming it, and we all know that humanity, mass farming and the sea do not mix very well. We could very easily go overboard with it. Pun not intended. Eventually we could be scraping the seabed for seaweed damaging it in the process just for the excuse of cutting gas levels coming from cowls. We are humans. We all know we would be willing to make that stupid mistake.

    5:59 - DO flush: Sh*t, p*ss, other things that come out of your body, and _actual_ toilet paper. Period(s).
    DON'T flush: Wipes (even so-called flushables**), tampons, pads/sanitary towels, medication....
    **So-called "flushable" wipes can still cause problems anywhere from your local sanitation processing site to _your own bathroom's pipes,_ as I found out expensively when my caregiver (I'm bed-bound and not in a good way) had been flushing them in my bathroom, which in Seattle Housing Authority's old pipes made my shower drain _epically_ slowly. THAT was an awkward conversation that started out, "You know the environment? Shouldn't people do something about it? Well, let's start with my pipes..."
    But I've encountered this earlier in life when a girl was embarrassed at school because her sanitary pad wouldn't flush and her stall almost overflowed the entire bathroom. This...this flushing etiquette should be part of health class! Even for the boys, as wipes are used by all sooner or later! For our pipes - for our waterways - FOR OURSELVES! (And not to mention the valiant folks who actually work with sewage treatment....)
