A recent report from Stanford University in the US, published in the journal Nature Communications, found that recycling lithium-ion batteries is far more environmentally friendly than mining for new materials.

Huh, who knew

The music you guys breakdance to doesn’t have breakdowns?

Been on the receiving end of apologizing for no reason. Annoying AF

I’d rather not drink it, on the off chance it’s mixture of water and ethylene glycol, like in those snow globes, or some other poisonous shit.
