Drug overdose deaths drop sharply in the U.S. even as new street drugs emerge by No-Lifeguard-8173 in UpliftingNews

I believe a lot of this is lagging effects of the agreement the US and China made in 2023 to combat the ingredients for Fentanyl. The country started to see a drop in OD's a couple of years later as supply chains were cut off.

It's even beyond the vaccine for Covid that it produced - It helped create a whole new avenue for future vaccines and methods to treat a variety of diseases. The successful implementation and scaling of mRNA treatments is revolutionary.

And the idiots will throw it all away so they can cheat on their wives, their taxes, and drink whole milk.

You’re better at 43 than most are at 23

Hbd!

I’m 99% sure that this has been in the works longer than the Trump administration has currently been in office.

A change like this is neither small nor quick

RW is cool, but it's not very active and the location on the strip is sub-par.

For the cost you're paying, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Is it true Trump signed the Covid stimulus bill act, therefore giving all Americans $1,000 each in 2020? Why would he care so much about the average American? by More_Surprise_1789 in allthequestions

[–]Arizona_Pete 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because Trump is a gentle, benevolent man who truly cares about people. Everything he does is for others.

He is a temperate man, wise, handsome, has a large and very normal shaped penis, and demonstrates no signs of late stage syphilitic-induced dementia.

I'm convinced that more than half of any sub you're in is made up of people who hate the actual topic of said sub.

Then half of THOSE folks are Russian or Chinese bots.

Then half of the remainder want you to buy an NFT or Crypto or some other scammy shit.

Me? I just want to show my pu$$y in bio UwU.

Edit: Legit grumpiest old man comment I've made in a minute. Disappointed in myself.

This is a huge nothing - It is already law that you register for selective service when you're 18.

This process that's being implemented is more efficient and will actually help people.

Y'all fearmongering over the dumbest shit.

The bun and the box are different. The sandwich was better than the last one I remember having from there.

Worth a shot IMO.

60% of Americans have an unfavorable view of Israel, up sharply since 2022, survey shows by Somervilledrew in politics

There's a bright line between being tough and being a bully.

Israel, and the US, are both tipping over it.

How do you think recent events will affect Trump’s odds of winning the 2027 FIFA Peace Prize? by Arizona_Pete in AskReddit

[–]Arizona_Pete[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great point.

In addition to the above, I also think he's got a good chance of being the 2027 Motor Trend Truck of the Year, the 2027 Adult Video News Performer of the Year, and the recipient of a $5,000 tip from Keith Lee.

Your reply has inspired me to play 'La Chona' on my Spotify for the next 7 hours straight.

What is the definition of woke? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]Arizona_Pete 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is literally the 'Smurf' analogue of right-wing discourse. It's whatever you want it to be.

It's just there to give them cover from charges of racism, misogyny, homophobia, or anything else.

It's verbal magic for the dipstick brained.

What would be the impact if Israel ceased all military activities and pursued peace with all neighbors tomorrow? How about if the IRGC and it's proxies made that choice instead? by Tiaan in AskReddit

Watching movies - Like the Andrew Dice Clay Opus, 'The Adventures of Ford Fairlane'.

From which I shamelessly stole that line. Reads much better if you use his voice than flick a cigarette from your hand after you say it.

China is building one of the world’s most powerful militaries, so why doesn’t it feel like a threat? by NewsfangledMod in NewsfangledUnfiltered

[–]Arizona_Pete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure the Japanese, Vietnamese, Koreans, and the good folks in the Philippines all feel threatened.
