To a friend: I think cannibalism is kinda legal in the Netherlands but sourcing it isnt

Them: yea, obviously you can't kill anyone

Me: who said anything about killing, I could just take a person's arm from the elbow. I mean, not that I would

Them laughing: ok but you saying that convinces me even more that you would

Yea I've been called out.

How do you make a whore moan?

Extract sapogenins from a Mexican yam and employ Marker degradation to degrade the sapogenin side chain while leaving similar functional groups on the steroid nucleus (relatively) unaffected. Use acetic anhydride to block the hydroxyl group formed by opening the six-membered pyran ring. Then oxidatively open the five-membered furan ring with chromic acid. This forms the acetyl side chain of progesterone and an esterified hydroxyl group on the steroid nucleus. The ester is then hydrolyzed under strongly basic conditions. The use of acetic acid leads to the production of 16-dehydropregnenolone acetate (16-DPA). 16-DP can be converted into progesterone in two steps. Firstly, the double bond in ring D is hydrogenated, followed by Oppenauer oxidation of the hydroxyl group and the concurrent migration of the remaining olefin from ring B to ring A so that it is in conjugation with the ketone carbonyl group at position 3. Alternatively, a three-step procedure involving Br2, CrO3, and Zn/HOAc can be used. 16-DP can also be converted into testosterone and the downstream products estrone and estradiol. 👍

I just learned that my great-grandma and her sister used to do a hustle in pool halls back in the 1930's, their father had a pool table so they got really good at it and would go to the halls and, like, swing the stick around and say, "is this how you hold it??" and "so do you hit the white ball first????" and then they'd play for money and cream everyone I love my family
