Most people here lean libertarian right. You're seeing ghosts.

Yes. The problem is that as you taper off the opiates you basically prolong the suffering by going through mild withdrawal with each step down.

The hard part is going to zero opiates, and tapering is infinitely preferable to jumping off a large dose, but it does not make it any less taxing on your will.

Wikileaks is no arbiter of what is and what is not relevant to the interest of the public.

If they choose to sit on information, they have an agenda, IMO.

Demanding money back is not harrassment, especially after being conned.

I don't think being laser-focused on who as opposed to what and why is relevant or helpful by any means.

>Their size leads to amplification of issues beyond reasonable response.

This is a ridiculous sentiment IMO.

Comparing the mix of moprhine and cocaine with coffee and alcohol is both misleading and inaccurate.

Even cocaine and amphetamine are apples and oranges, despite both being classified as stimulants.

He said it was basically milk flavored water, when compared directly to whole milk.

Confirmation bias at its finest.

We know because many manhours of research has vetted this topic and the consensus is clear: there are very few cases of in person voting fraud in the United States.

Very few meaning about 250 cases over a 15 year period.

Millions upon millions of votes are cast during this timeframe.

Frankly, I expect more fraud to naturally exist, like you.

But it just isn't a problem in the US.

Voting by mail is a state level thing, not every state has the option to vote by mail.

Ideology aside, it is a solution looking for a problem.

If the entire point is to disenfranchise a voting base, why would the entity pushing for the adoption concede these barriers?

If I am throwing a wall up, I generally don't build ladders into the wall itself.

For me it comes down to the content I view on Youtube being available exclusively on Youtube.

Critical analysis of media is my jam, this kind of content is niche compared to the stuff that pulls a billion views on YT.

I'll happily comb through PT but I doubt it can fill my bottomless hunger for this kind of content.

Damned shame.

I'm positive if it was a regedit away there would be wide spread dissemination of all relevant information and likely a very simple process for nuking it.

A single lane road.

As opposed to a two lane road with traffic flowing in either direction.

Why wouldn't you be able to?

I'm pretty sure there is absolutely an objective definition of what is and is not a war crime.

It's a pretty good read, mostly about the prevalence of Pervitin usage. I found it extremely worthwhile but drug discourse is my cup of tea- I tend to get a bit geeky about it.

I can (and have) easily cashed out everything that is on the Steam marketplace for USD.

Ever heard of a third party? How about paypal? Is a gray market a concept foreign to you entirely?

I can exchange them to a bot, recieve Amazon gift card funds, and then turn that into USD.

I can trade them straight up for any cryptocurrency.

I can have a bank deposit made tomorrow.

I can exchange them for points on a website which get cashed out for USD/EUR/GBP.

The list goes on.

Just because you are ignorant and Steam isn't directly handing me a dollar for every Steam wallet dollar doesn't mean it is impossible.

Please educate yourself or stop feigning.

I wouldn't be shocked if prescription drugs were detected in every body of water that is being used for human waste.

Wake up to what, exactly?

I immediately dropped Ghostery and switched to PB after hearing this many moons ago.

I've never looked back.

What a wonderful story. Nobody flees from love, indeed.

This is an idea with tangible value. Not just for Brazil, either.

The flood is already here. I can bet, with a credit card, on basically any competitive game I can watch on Twitch. I have been for years now. I'm waiting for regulation floods, not more sketchy sites.

Yes. I use it for comment searching, you'd be surprised how useful it is for miscellaneous subject research. Then again I always try to use operators when applicable.

If you think giving money to the poor is why the original OC formulation did a lot of damage in that area, you are willfully or ignorantly discarding several critical elements to support your narrative.

Undertreatment of pain is now even worse thanks to prohibition tactics.

There is no perfect lock, nor is there a drug with abuse potential unabused by someone, be they rich and famous (Rush Limbaugh really struggled in that Rust belt mansion while his maid was treated like his personal drug mule) or dirt poor living on 400 bucks a month.

Some people are functioning addicts.

Probably people you interact with and trust.

Not every poor person is going to use a hundred dollars on drugs the minute they have it.

If you want poor people off drugs, decriminalization and the death of the War on Drugs comes first.

Unless you like seeing innoncent folks drop like fucking flies everytime some genius cuts their heroin with fentanyl instead of something inert.

State level welfare is not UBI.

For almost every state youll get 200 dollars in EBT/person. These are nontranferable, you must only buy unprepared food, etc. Yes, even now people abuse this. You cannot make a perfect lock.

If you have a kid you also get a bit of cash aid (less than 200 dollars.)

Try living on 400 bucks for the next month or 12 and see how depressed it will make you.

If no one archived it, and the board is relatively active, its probably gone.

The undertreatment of pain in the US is affecting my grandparents in a huge way. My poor grandfather spends a week or more a month suffering from the rapid taper the doc is putting him through. We are trying to get him into pain management, apparently every doc in CA is scared of prosecution.

The irony is he would be just fine if they never rescheduled hydrocodone. When they did thst he had to be put on fentanyl and dilaudid, forcing us to seek out a pain specalist to get my grandfather the quality of life he needs to keep going.

The guy fell twice in two years and they just keep cutting him back, while abusers switch to heroin.

Genius tactic IMO. Deny those who need it, deny those who seek to abuse it, and force everyone to switch to heroin. Kidding of course- but thats where the abusers will go.

The legit QoL patients suffer with zero alternative. They cant take ibuprofen without shitting blood for a week.

Its like drm. The legit consumer is punished by those who abused the system.

Its more nuanced than that, but thats how it affects my life directly. Watching my grandparents in extreme pain because of crackdowns in all the wrong places. It makes me hurt and sick.

A big selling point of a phone to me is a built in blacklist feature. Problem is I only get that after the fact, or if I hunt for it while physically shopping. They don't usually bulletpoint it as a selling point, but it should be a standard feature.

I don't own an iPhone, but I assume you have the same trouble I do with spam texts/calls and no real decent blacklisting solution (most apps just don't work and I'm not going to throw money after money to find the one that does work in that pile of shovelware they call the play store.

That's the danger of doxxing, once it's out there any sociopathic edgelord can order 15 pizzas, swat you, basically do some shit to fuck with you, except people get killed when SWATting occurs and you can just say I didn't order these when the pizza guy shows up.
