  1. So annoying on several levels… First I didn't see anything anything, juice or pulp being applied in their video. Secondly, in the wild state an open wound closing would be the same as a wound healing.. I think they were just prattling on without watching the video or thinking about the words they were saying.. typical news,

  2. I think it's time we stop thinking of orangutans as merely "animals" and start thinking of them as a sibling species. They are more like us than most people want to admit.

  3. I don't understand what value the second speaker provided to the discussion. He repeated the same thing the woman said. Was it because a man's point of view is more believable?

  4. I don't know why this is such huge news. Except maybe to actually teach people that pharma doesn't have your best interest in mind with pushing drugs on you. 🤷‍♂️

  5. Yeah. Black Civilizations have been doing this for millennia: it’s called Root Work.

    Only the demonic WS has disavowed it, in favor of his addiction-affirming pharmaceuticals.

    🥱

  6. yeah well, maybe that might work for the orangutan

    but not for a human

    because maybe the orangutans saliva, when mixed with the juice of that plant, creates the perfect medicine for a wound

    but because human saliva probably has a completely different makeup

    it probably wouldn’t work for a human
