So every year at crunch time, we have what is essentially a power struggle in the GOP between the zealot wing and the establishment wing over who has more control. To be fair, the Democrats are quite aware of this dynamic and are happy to use it to their advantage, which doesn't help matters.

Not that there's terribly much choice in taking advantage of such. They're not really being given much alternative between that and bending over for said zealot wing of the GOP, since the reacharound between factions on that side of things seem to involve iron clamps more than hands.

Don't see much likelihood of that changing, either, unless the GOP splits. Doubtful there's many other ways to get the non-zealot branch to stop voting in lockstep with and ferrying along legislation for the rest of the party...

I'm... pretty sure that would have nothing to do with dongtoads. Coyote, maybe, but not the venerable phallophibus genus.

... haven't we already done this? Pretty sure this conversation happened closer to the actual event.

Cut it open and see if it bleeds. If it doesn't, eat it. If it does, exorcism.

Might help, though. I just break the surface, m'self. Or did, back when the only real source of heating I had was a microwave and I could still indulge in caffeinated stuff without much worry. Seems to work, heh.

I know a person who microwaves tea.

It's more or less normal tea, providing you're just using the microwave to boil/heat the water. Have to be careful it doesn't explode on you, but there's ways to get around that (I used to stick oversized toothpick-things, some sort of skewer, in the water while heating it) and there's not too much of a chance of it anyway if you're not heating the water for stupid amounts of time _{it takes like maybe a minute or two, tops, for a normal sized coffee mug}

You can even microwave sodas if you want soda tea. Microwaves work just fine for basic, day-to-day, teamaking.

Little good can come of letting zoo lions have a taste of hominine flesh, anyway.

E: Though as to what else, medical cadavers and whatnot. Science usually has a use for dead bodies, even if it's only training people to do things to other ones.

Who knows~

Though it's not like we don't have fairly close equivalents right now. It's not exactly commonly paraded about, but body paint is totally a thing.
