Please, use the full title. Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Smiths

There’s no Barf Bag anymore, and I had to share this somewhere:

He quoted a bunch of lines that did not include the word “all” and then threw the “all” in himself and THEN got big mad. God, how are these people so absolutely stupid.

I agree with many of his broader points, but his arguments/claims about heroin addicition and withdrawal (and the methodology he used to arrive there) are so woefully inaccurate and irresponsible as to be absurd. Using for a few days, and never intravenously, does not give an accurate understanding, let alone make one…

“You’d think we’d slapped them in the face and said fuck you.”

“The social media backlash against us is disgusting,” one comment seemingly from Wookieepedia adminstrator Supreme Emperor, whose name repeatedly appears in the Consensus Talk’s page as the user who struck various votes in favor of altering the policy citing voting eligibility rules, read in part.

I really dont get whats so hard with calling people what they want to be called.

Needing a 2:1 majority approval sounds like a goddamn bullshit filibuster rule to me.

Mind-altering drugs. People have used mind-altering drugs since forever, but no one substance or thing has altered the mind more so than television and the internet.

It’s quite telling that in a webpage that updates the names of characters who change their names (like Finn, or Rey Skywalker), ships that change their names (like the Millennium Falcon), movies that change their names (like Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope) and even real people who changed their surname when they got…

I see full legalization as a necessary evil. Too many people have been locked up fo rno good reason or have had drugs planted on them to get a conviction. I smoke weed, I almost never drink (i dont like feeling sick and really dont like the taste quite honestly). You make something a crime you create criminals. Same…

So... Mephisto confirmed?

No mention of Timothy Leary in the article? Just curious.

I agree that drug laws and stigma need to change, but if he’s equating his few days taking heroin the non-injection route and kicking it as not problematic to a long-term IV user’s experience, I’d say he’s never worked as an addiction counselor to too many long-term IV users. Granted, I’m working only off of this…

I won’t lie to you, it took a lot of therapy and then the better part of a graduate degree in psychology to get there. Starting early would be a radical and transformative step.

If only most of us had the ability (self-awareness) to recognize a knee-jerk reaction for what it is and understand where it’s coming from. Alas, I think the majority of humans lack that emotional maturity. One of those things that should be taught in schools (and often isn’t), along with nutrition and financial…

Ah yeah, when Dark Vader attacked Adleron.

Modern British take on Washington crossing the Delaware.

As an alcoholic who definitively has the addictive streak, I 100% agree that destigmatization and legalization is hugely important. I also agree that many, many people can use drugs non-addictively.

My knee-jerk reaction to this was anger and frustration, and it took a bit to tease apart why and what’s going on. On the surface, I’m frustrated with the apparent glibness with which he’s approaching addiction and withdrawal, and painting himself as a modern MLK. But I also know that the safest society is one in…
