Today I learned that it is illegal to sell tritium in the us but it is not illegal to buy it in the us…so here is a website selling tritium trinkets that come from taiwan!

They are like glow sticks that last for 10 years, it is perfectly safe unless maybe you were drinking liquid tritium for a few weeks.

    The Leatherman tool company is indeed named after its creator’s last name, which is also of course “Leatherman.”

    I know we all like to joke about that Tim Apple guy calling the shots and fucking everything up all the time at the iPhone-and-computer company, but the owner and founder of the Leatherman Tool Group is literally Tim Leatherman.

      Oh, sure, many companies are named after their founder’s surnames - I didn’t mean to suggest I doubted that. I just meant that the Leatherman I knew was unassociated.

      The “Tim” fact is pretty funny. Thank you for the information.
