spicy pillow

[–] admin@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

I didn't read it but a TLDR would be because its an airproof package with chemicals inside, which react with one another to produce electrical energy, when for some reason a bad reaction occurs, it releases a gas which get contained within the package creating the spicy pillow fwiw.
