Please Don’t Bet on Horse Paste

I’M NO VETERINARIAN, SO TAKE THIS WITH A GRAIN OF SALT AND/OR HAY BALE…

I mean…I just…I can’t…

Trusting in the efficacy of wildly off-label (and, you know, off-species) anti-parasitic horse paste, but refusing the scientific consensus on vaccines and masks is like using motor oil as sunscreen, with the thesis of: “Well they’re both viscous, and if the 10W-30 protects my engine it must protect me, too!”

💊 🐴 💊 🐴 💊

Let’s be honest, you ingest tert-Butylhydroquinone and thiamin mononitrate FEARLESSLY when you scarf down snack cakes because you’ve bought into the institutional trust that food scientists have truly determined that such additives are safe for human consumption. You didn’t reach that conclusion because you have any idea what the hell those chemicals actually are.

Give the vaccine the same benefit and—yes—the life you save may be your own, but also countless others. Don’t be a dummy.

WHO SAYS ITC AVANT GARDE GOTHIC IS OUTTA STYLE? ALSO, YOU BET I’M DANG PROUD OF THAT CUSTOM W&O PSEUDO-LIGATURE. (APOLOGIES TO MR. LUBALIN.)
