Well at least methylene blue is harmless. I used to put it in my coworker's coffee to turn their piss blue.

I'm sure you two had a good rapport and it was okay to mess with each other, and that you weren't drugging strangers.

Methylene blue is used as an antifungal for aquarium fish.

I’m just waiting for Rogan to say DMT stops cancer and frankly I’m surprised it hasn’t happened yet

These people treat knowable medical information the way that people a decade or so ago used to treat stories about ghosts or being abducted by aliens.

So, methylene blue can be used as a fabric dye; it can also be used as ink for temporary or permanent tattoos. However, medically, it's used in the treatment of methemoglobinemia, as a urinary analgesic, anti-infective, and anti-spasmodic agent, or in endoscopy as a gastrointestinal dye, and can also be used as a rescue antidote in life threatening poisonings causing refractory shock states and other shock states.

While I sincerely doubt anyone's state IV cancer has been cured by methylene blue, dismissing it as "a fabric dye" is wrongfully dismissive of it's actual medical uses.

I mean, I'm fine with them pushing this misinformation. That's just fewer of their audience who survive cancer and go vote.

He's long been known as a soggy wet noodle. What I want to know is, was he closeted, or never quite instant noodles?
