@CrazyMusicLover some info

Giant hogweed (Heracleum mantegazzianum) is a VERY LARGE, invasive plant that can cause painful burns and permanent scarring. Brushing against or breaking the plant releases sap that, combined with sunlight and moisture, can cause a severe burn within 24 to 48 hours.

@Ozymandiaz ouch!
@deadgerbil Who are you thinking about? 😂

@Ozymandiaz it's called bolshevnik here. I'd say rightly so.

@deadgerbil They react with the sunshine though. I'm not sure if eating it causes problems unless you're allergic to it.

@CrazyMusicLover yeah I didn't know that when I thought about putting it into someone's salad, although if they went outside after their lips would probably blister like crazy
Dude. Shit. You ok?
@V00doo Yes all good. Got it working in the garden. Looks like love bites ffs
@Ozymandiaz No dates for you
@V00doo Except for tomorrow 🤷‍♂️

That’s awful. Do you have any steroid allergy cream that you can use to help?
@iamonfire696 Nah, dont need it. I will be grand 😌

@Ozymandiaz It sounds so painful though. If it gets worse please treat it.
