I’m frustrated that this keeps happening (aid money ending up in rich people’s pockets)

Is there any way to mitigate this?

Why don’t they want it to end?

We’re doing our part!

Lmao damn rip

BoingBoing

Kottke.org

Many substacks…

• Line Noise is a good music one
• Rave New World
• Blackbird Spyplane

For a phone with a minimal UI, there is Light Phone. I almost bought the Nokia “banana phone” because it was used in The Matrix and I love that film. If you want something that will last a long time, maybe Fairphone (tho it is Android)

Only Mr Robot

I watched Reality Bites recently and this was prominently displayed

Makes me wonder where the trope came from…

People definitely used to do pistol duels at prearranged times, but maybe that fell out of favor in the West?

I guess we’ll see how it goes here with the hallucinations

I’m using Masto a few times a day and I generally like it. I get a good mix of news and pictures. I joined after Twitter became X.

I’m not on Bsky but frankly reading the comments in this thread makes me consider it

I think concrete actually reacts with plastic in some cases (I have read as much)

What happened to your supply to cause leakage?

Sure, plastic isn’t perfect, but it is cheap and easy to get. I have plastic gallons for my house and car. I’m willing to consume a bit of extra plastic in a disaster situation 🙃

IMHO: water is the easiest and most important. Stash some bottles

Like… where do you draw the line?

I’ve got water, a purchased “bug out bag”, camping gear, extra clothes and water in the car, batteries, ham radio, and a crowbar.

I’m not a prepper but I consider myself somewhat prepared

FWIW storing a few extra gallons of water is a very easy prep

OP, can you edit the title to clarify that the seized weight was 153kg and the pills contained fentanyl, so as to clarify that the pills were not pure fent?

Ok I re read the article and I think the misleading part is this:

1.4 million fentanyl pills totaling 152.98 kilograms.

The total weight of the pills was ~153 kg, but that’s not all Fentanyl. The pills CONTAINED it but this doesn’t tell us the amount per pill.

Furthermore it looks like they were stamped as Oxycodone so yeah they were to be sold to current opiate users I wager

Thanks for doing the math!

If I’m feeling angsty I like early Nine Inch Nails

If I just want to chill then maybe “The K&D Sessions”
