“Magic mushrooms appear to be relatively safe so far when you compare them to other, more dangerous drugs, and this isn’t the first time the science community has suggested it.”

My partner too. Went down to his building parkade because it had a “nice echo and he wanted to sing” and forgot his keys (as one does when one is not altogether there) and was locked down there with the buzzing fluorescent lights, giant concrete pillars and the dingy spray on ceiling for several hours on his own.…

But safe recreational drugs don’t really go with our new extreeeeeeme lifestyles these days. I mean mushrooms? Come on, everyone know it’s Fentanyl FTW!! Just check the news, they’re droppin’ like flies. Keep some Narcan handy and you’ll be all set.

LOL there really is a stock image for everything isn’t there

If anybody need a little dose of late-night graveyard humor about all of this, Rachel Maddow reminded me earlier tonight that the lawyer Trump hired to represent him was the lead defense lawyer hired by Sberbank, the Russian oligarch’s finance bank that’s run for Putin’s benefit They were being sued by the Federal…

There was a thread on Twitter where someone likened Faux News believers and Trumpkins to Scientologists and their “Sea Org,” setup. I can totally agree as someone who, in that analogy, is an SP.

Honestly I want nothing more than this film, done a second time exactly as it is now, but with everyone speaking in Modern Scots dialect.

WOT HAVE YA DONE TO ME YA VENGEFUL BISHES
