I'm not magnetic yet. How many more vaccines do I need before I become an X-Men?

It may already be happening. Do you find that when you face a random direction that more often than not it's toward the north?

[–] ripcord@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Do you then think about direction and wonder why you haven't before?

Ugh only on procedural grounds since she wouldn't participate? If they don't want to participate just take the claims at face value by default.

What's funny is that magnetizing people is actually a good thing and can help cure mental illnesses like depression.

Yeah, but I think she meant it makes people magnetic somehow… as if that is a real thing a vaccine could do.

I know, she was claiming people had metal objects sticking to their bodies as an adverse vaccine reaction. This is a common magic trick any of us could do using a combination of sticky/clammy skin and an altered center of gravity. I was just pointing out that magnetic fields are used therapeutically and don't have a high degree of associated risk, making her claims that much more absurd.
