Musk said it in Rogan a few weeks ago, and it became a justified belief overnight. It had huge flaws in logic when he said it, and no one who is parroting the talking point today is thinking beyond “the real life Ironman says we live in the matrix”.

I was thinking there’s a surprising lack of billboards and ads.
It’s not the weed that’s the problem. Unless I’m a snob for not considering this a ritzy beach community…
Has the creator of this ever been to California? “Beach community” is not how I’d describe the northern half of the state’s coast…
There are two routes to go here:
Science route: kidney stones are largely made of calcium, oxalate, urate, cystine, xanthine, and phosphate in our world. Presuming dragon physiology is roughly the same as our world, there’s nothing inherently special about these elements in game. Short of “reliquary” type of usages (think finger bone of a saint), there’s no reason to think it is special. Considering dragon scale is used in armor, I have to assume any less exciting dragon “parts” would pale in comparison. Might have value as a trade good or interesting conversation piece to the right collector.
Fun route: this chunk of phosphorus can be used 1d8 times in place of normal phosphorus from your material components pouch, upping the damage die of any [fire] spell cast using it.
If we’re adding somewhat related concepts OP might find interesting, I’ve always thought these were neat: grammatically correct sentences your brain doesn’t process the first time.
I mean, Descartes had brain in a vat theories well before the 1980s, and Plato’s allegory of the cave is fundamentally the same. My position was that “the reason we’re talking about it again all of a sudden is because one idiot got on the podcast of another idiot and poorly explained it to the throngs of their uncritical fans”.
