Ah okay i misunderstood. Regardless there were far more harmful things influencing everyone in the 70s than nicotine, like the thousands of toxic additives and carcinogens in secondhand smoke, or the lead in the paint and the gasoline.

This would be beautiful. I remember when there were mod-chip stores beside internet cafes, where i could bring my xbox and pay to have a chip and a hard drive installed that let me copy any game i wanted from a rented disk or downloaded off the internet right onto the console. I still have that console and pulled it out during quarantine to make use of the huge library of games on the hard drive. Having this sort of freedom for all types of goods and electronics would be incredible, but i doubt it will ever happen.

I mean sure, nicotine is technically a psychoactive drug. But so is caffeine and theobromine, so should we stop giving kids chocolate? Ban all coffee shops? Honestly not sure what your point is here. Everything is drugs, at least a little.

Do you have to have cable service to sign up?

Youd be much better off trying to unionize your coworkers, that would be far more damaging to the fascist ubercapitalists, and much more beneficial for the workers morale.

I remember there being a few cases of mdma ‘overdose’ in the late 90s/early 2000s that actually ended up being due to water toxicity.

This is just not true. https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3?tab=readme-ov-file#6-how-to-run-locally

Nothing makes you appreciate shakespeares writing like seeing someone try to imitate shakespeares writing.

Dont you even watch television? Youre supposed to hang out at the sink fixing your makeup until other women come up and you can have a cute casual conversation that makes you realize something important. Probably about the man you were considering dating. I dont use the womens restroom and even i know that.

Im gonna reccommend zenni too, but from canada. I got two pairs of really nice all metal frames with lenses and coatings, for less than $40 back before the pandemic. Before that i went through a pair of glasses every year or so, but i haven’t ever worn the second pair i bought yet because the first pair is still going strong 5 years later.

Omg is that Gun? I havent thought about that game in ages.

Yeah i get why the lobbyists want it. I dont get why the answer from so many citizens seems to be “i dont want my taxes to go up”. Like bro youre paying ten times the amount now that you would in any tax increase.

Theres like 30, i see news about it on every other post.

What is with the huge amount of idiots who would rather pay hundreds or thousands a month in insurance and healthcare costs just to save a couple hundred a year in taxes? Its actually unbelievably dumb.

How would someone even know you’re ‘praying’ in public ynless youre making a spectacle about it? Thats what people dont want in the streets, large public demonstrations that seek to suck in and take advantage of vulnerable people. People know they can go to any of hundreds of churches or religious institutions if they want that sort of thing, but accosting strangers in public with your religion is not appropriate. You wanna sit on a park bench with yojr eyes closed and talk to god in your head, no one is going to stop you though.

It was never about drugs, it was about profits for the militarized police industrial complex and the pharmaceutical companies with a good sprinkling of privatized prisons on top.

I cant speak for everyone but for me it depends on the day which one itll be.

The Sopranos ran from 1999-2007. The Wire was 2002-2008. Its always sunny in philadelphia started in 2005. Curb your enthusiasm started in 2000. Scrubs started 2001. So its not even just that two of the most critically acclaimed shows of all time were made in that time period, but some of the most groundbreaking and influential comedy shows also. If you think breaking bad was some sort of turning point for TV you missed a lot of history.
