I know I'm going to hell, but I love the way fur looks and feels. I am totally in love with this hat. So beautiful. I want to wrap myself up this coat and move somewhere very cold. It just looks so soft and warm.

(Yes, I know fur is murder and it is cruel to kill animals just for their skins and the world would be so much better if we were all vegan hippies who lived on air, etc, etc, etc. This post is not a commnetary on anything, just an expression of longing for something beautiful and unobtainable in my world. Spare me the lecture. Lecture me on it, and I will ban you.)

[livejournal.com profile] frostwalrus is equally paranoid about the deodorant. You two should trade theories.

The aluminum in deodorant rots your brain, just find the stuff w/o aluminum and you are set!

I was just fake-lecturing. I don't even know if my deodorant has aluminum, I smoke, eat meat, drive a truck, and I'm okay with fur from meat animals. Simon & Garfunkel are pretty good, though.

However, aluminum is probably bad for you.

Wikipedia says:
Aluminum has been established as a neurotoxin.[14] Aluminum chloride, an aluminum salt that is commonly used in antiperspirants, is also commonly used in studies on aluminum-induced neurotoxicity.[15][16][17][18][19] Aluminum itself adversely affects the blood-brain barrier, is capable of causing DNA damage, and has adverse epigenetic effects.

Hence you were not banned. :P I'm curious, has anyone determined how much aluminum gets absorbed from your antiperspirant? I must research. Also, is it just in antiperspirant? Because I only use an antideordant type.

I really am not sure. I've seen enough of what seems to be legit research to be wary of antiperspirants. I only use deodorants anyway, myself, and I think aluminum is just used in the antiperspirants.
