people probably don't care, but the reason Americans thought tomatoes were poisonous is that they were usually served on lead plates, and the tomatoes absorbed the lead which eventually poisoned anyone who consumed them.

ah yes
lead
i watched a documentary on it before school, then accidentally stabbed myself with a pencil
I thought i had lead poisoning and i was gonna die
i still have graphite embedded in my hand
i also have a few physically abnormal things on me that surprisingly i did not cause between the age of 6 and 9
like skin tags in places I wouldn't generally show the public
a weird dot on my right hand
and the weird white thing on my arm
i also have a few genetic mental disorders
in conclusion (idk why i'm sharing this)
my mom shouldn't have dated a 35yo at the age of 19 and have unprotected smex if she didn't want a mushy child to take care of at the age of 22
