@hal_pomeranz@infosec.exchange everything is a lie
I feel like almost every day I come across a myth someone talked about like it was fact when I was a kid.
I already knew MSG was safe, but learned the full story earlier today. Literally came from a prank gone wrong, some guys wrote an academic paper as a joke and were later unable to get it retracted and it resulted in decades of harmful myths about Chinese food

@sawaba@infosec.exchange I’m just wondering what kind of broken person hurls lemmings to their death to make a film?

@sawaba@infosec.exchange @hal_pomeranz@infosec.exchange I’ve actually used the lemming story in presentations. It’s deliciously ironic. The only animals who act like lemmings are us humans.
