Dude, you *really* can't be throwing shade. You're a good fucking person who was constantly chewing roxys.you can’t be playing the HERO FOR THE PEOPLE like you’re some sainthood while breaking the law and getting high like a fiend. pick one
I don't get the potential benefits part for him - he never sold drugs and didn't indicate being incarcerated. Or did I miss that? Unless you mean that less systematic racism could have changed his life. It might have. But people from all eco classes and races become junkies.this is an interview with him from back in October that I thought was pretty interesting.
'Lovecraft Country' Sent Michael K. Williams to the Darkest Place of His Career
You've seen him in 'The Wire' and 'When They See Us.' But Michael K. Williams' most harrowing role has just been surviving as Michael K. Williams.www.menshealth.com
he's very frank about his struggles and demons, and I honestly don't see the issue with his name being associated with the bill. it's not like it's an award for being drug-free, and had the potential benefits of the bill been realized earlier, he may have never gone down this path in the first place.
yeah I meant like, generational trauma and coming up in a community ravaged by racism and incarceration. you're absolutely right that addiction can affect anyone; it's no guarantee in either direction, that is, growing up in a certain environment doesn't guarantee addiction and not growing up in that environment doesn't guarantee a drug-free existence, but some conditions more consistently lead to a particular set of outcomes.I don't get the potential benefits part for him - he never sold drugs and didn't indicate being incarcerated.

My hope is that all drug use is decriminalized that don’t involve illegal sales or minors.Well, currently black offenders get much harsher sentences than whites in most parts of the US. The hope is that everybody would get the same sentences. I think the disparity sucks, I'm fine with a bill that chips away at systematic racism. Granted, his dealer might have been white.
I'm glad you're back - you debate these things pretty balanced, if long(I know, pot calling on kettle ). Some people really seem to get tied up in the generational trauma, some people seem to have let it go and just deal with the trauma of their lives. I think generational poverty is more pervasive and damaging than the past trauma.yeah I meant like, generational trauma and coming up in a community ravaged by racism and incarceration. you're absolutely right that addiction can affect anyone; it's no guarantee in either direction, that is, growing up in a certain environment doesn't guarantee addiction and not growing up in that environment doesn't guarantee a drug-free existence, but some conditions more consistently lead to a particular set of outcomes.
I'm pretty much down with that with the exception of true hallucinogenics - some of those are best and safest for everybody in a controlled environment. Do an overnighter in a nice hotel where you can't leave if you want to trip balls on LCD or stronger 'shrooms - imo. I really don't want anyone taking PCP - that can tturn very violent. Do we let people buy heroin as often as they want? Meth? I've smoked opium, I understand the dangerous attraction. Drugs are fun until they're not. I feels bad for Micheal K., brother got sucked in, couldn't pull out. I'm try to pull out of this convo, making me sad AF.My hope is that all drug use is decriminalized that don’t involve illegal sales or minors.
Lock thread. Satan wins.
jokes on you
they put the virus in diet cokes
thats why all the fat people sweating on eachother keep getting it. If you go through an airport your gonna get fat sweat on you its unavoidable
It was fitting that these landed on the same page. Well done! I’m glad others caught it too.
You should watch Pharmacopia. I found out that PCP wasn't the drug I thought it was. It's very chill.I'm pretty much down with that with the exception of true hallucinogenics - some of those are best and safest for everybody in a controlled environment.

I honored Michael's memory by watching the first two episodes of The WIre last night - wow, cool show, had missed that one.
If you mean Hamilton's Pharmacopeia - I had a different takeaway than you. It CAN be chill, it can also be very unchill - pass on the dissociative hallucinogenic.You should watch Pharmacopia. I found out that PCP wasn't the drug I thought it was. It's very chill.
Good job.Todays trip to the transfer station for recycling.
Old florescent light fixtures I had replaced with LED.
A box of old electronics that included such things as 4 Hauppauge HD-PVR component HD video USB capture devices, old LCD panels I was "saving" for a project, and remote controls for shit I didn't have anymore.
So its basically no different than any other adulterant.If you mean Hamilton's Pharmacopeia - I had a different takeaway than you. It CAN be chill, it can also be very unchill
It leads to feelings of self-importance and rage. It's an upper type of hallucinagenic. Doesnt appeal to me - I like drugs for reflection and relaxation. I don't need them to make me feel exciting or the life of the party.So its basically no different than any other adulterant.
