For some reason my version of darwin/bash/evn variables is not letting me co anything from the command line with https, I dunno why, but I have tried everything.
But I have found that cURL (the mean reason this is a problem for) can take a -k option or --insecure. This isn't great but its a hack that will work for now.
Could I just user alias curl='curl -k' ? I have never aliased something to overwrite a command that actually exists, will that even work?

To make an OPTIONS request with Curl, you must pass the -X OPTIONS command-line parameter to the Curl request. Browsers send OPTIONS requests when making a CORS request to another origin. The OPTIONS request does not return any data. All information is returned in the response headers.
The option tells curl to skip the verification of the server's TLS certificate – it will skip the cryptographic certificate verification (that it was signed by a trusted CA) and it will skip other certificate checks, like that it was made for the host name curl connects to and that it hasn't expired etc.
You can use the -A or --user-agent command-line option to pass your own User-Agent string to Curl. By default, Curl sends its own User-Agent string to the server in the following format: "curl/version. number". For example, when you use the Curl tool version 7.54.
Aliasing commands is usually not a problem. You could also put -k or --insecure into $HOME/.curlrc:
echo insecure >> $HOME/.curlrc
