Thank you for sharing this! But even on desktop its hard to read, must be hell on mobile. So I will just cite you:
1 - do not do it if you can avoid it
2 - if you really must, then try the folliwing:
* break the plant, put a tiny amount of it on your armpit. If it's not reacting (itching, becoming red, etc) after 10 minutes, continue.
* break the plant, put a tiny amount of it on your lips. If it's not reacting, after 10 minutes, continue.
* break the plant, put a tiny amount of it on your tongue. If it's not reacting after ten minutes, if the taste is not off putting for any reason, and if you don't get any sensation/intuition (for a better word) that something is wrong, continue.
* masticate a tiny amount. Same.
* swallow a tiny amount. Wait for 2 hours. Observe obvious symptoms, but also digestion. It should be easy to process at this amount.
If all that pass (yeah, it's very long), remember this doesn't ensure the plant is perfectly safe, just lowers the risks.

- sexisfun 7y agoShadow banning is unethical. Why aren't you displaying notice to the users?
- dang 7y agoWhen an account has been around for a while, we tell the user we're banning it and why. But shadowbanning is useful in other cases, such as for spammers, or for accounts connected with a history of abuse on HN.
- sexisfun 7y agoYou've shadow banned accounts because of the name of the account. You left that part out.
