    Fun fact: Xenon gas gets you super high. It’s like nitrous they give you at the dentist, but stronger. Nobody knows why. It’s not commonly known/used because it costs like 100x of nitrous and is more complicated to get

      I was curious if Amazon had Xenon gas because that would have been hilarious. Except for element samples, they don’t

      But

      I could buy a big ass tank of nitrogen if I wanted LMAO

        Note that nitrogen isn’t the one that gets you high, it’s nitrous oxide.

            We breathe about 76% nitrogen with every breath. Though who knows, maybe we are high on nitrogen 24/7.

            Edit: 76% not 26% lol

      Why would Xenon get you high? It’s a Nobel gas and should not have any chemical interaction with your body. Maybe by cutting off your oxygen supply but that isn’t how Nitrous works.

    This result, while preliminary, is like a neon sign telling us that not all hopes and dreams for a cure are gone.

      A xenon sign, if you will.

      (It was right there, sorry; sometimes I can’t help myself).
