Did you know the plant from #WhiteLotus has some disturbing #history?

The "Suicide Tree" is Cerbera odollam (dogbane family). It contains cerberin which causes heart attacks.

During the 16th - late 19th c., #Madagascar used this #poison for trial by ordeal.

The seed was taken with 3 pieces of chicken skin, & only if the accused vomited up all pieces (& didn't die) was she free. In 1838, the death rate from this comprised 20% of Malagasies.

Spoiler: the nut isn't as potent when fresh...

Jet

One of my first OCs from the Pokémon universe.

Jet is a cheerful trainer who travels with Gulpin across various regions. Both frequently feel sleepy because they love to nap. In battles, they forget their moves and sometimes win by accident. They enjoy picnics and sharing sandwiches!

Jet specializes in Poison-type Pokémon, with a secondary interest in Flying and Water types.

@poledance 🕷️🕸️☠️New Tattoo Thursday! A few weeks ago I got this incredible tattoo on my left upper thigh from Savannah @ @kenoshatattoocompany . He’s inspired by one of the main characters in the Amazon Prime show Hazbin Hotel, Angel Dust. Angel Dust is a character that resonates with me on so many levels. I know it’s ironic that someone with arachnophobia got a spider tattooed forever, but I also like to think I’m brave & face my fears head-on. 🤘🖤 @vivziebizzie @hazbinhotel @itsblakeroman #tattooedgirl #nerdyandtattooed #tattooed #tattoo #hazbinhotel #hazbinhotelangeldust #angeldust #tattoos #newtattoo #newtattoos #altmodel #model #spider #spiders #arachnophobia #spiderdemon #jumpingspider #jumpingspiders #poison #poisonhazbinhotel #faceyourfears #brave #foryourpage #fyp #foryoupage #fypage
