i wrote a deep and comprehensive dive into the world of synthol, from casual users to the swollen hulks whose stories always seem to go viralhttps://melmagazine.com/en-us/story/inside-synthol-nation-where-fake-swole-is-the-goal …
big props to @edwinmejia_jr and the @GenerationIron team for their assistance, along with all of the interviewed parties (anthony roberts, aaron singerman, and vanessa adams, who added the rarely-heard women's voice to these stories)
the one thing that came out of the interviews was that nobody was throwing the synthol users, even the heavy users, under the bus as delusional, freaks, etc. they were just like, this is happening; make of it what you will. also: women may body-modify, but not with synthol.
plus we've got the "synthol arm russian slap fight" video in there, along with an explanation of what the hell was going on there
oh my GOD COMMENTING HERE SO I CAN FIND tHIS LATER
@MilesKlee 's favorite guy the iranian hulk is in this, though he declined to comment
yeah i wanted to give folks something that explains exactly what's going on, how it's used most often, and why these weird synthol stories always go viral (usually with no explanation). the @GenerationIron team helped me out with this because that's their next big project
