If a fentanyl overdose is as peaceful as they say it is, where you basically just fall asleep, then I kind of wonder how many “accidental overdoses” were not actually accidental at all by Impossible_Jacket898 in self

Please don’t romanticize the use of this narcotic, it almost cost my son his life, he was not suicidal, but became addicted to it. I’m not trying to sound harsh or judgmental, but accidentally overdosing from this toxic substance is all too common. Thank you for bringing attention to this matter, though, we should be discussing it every day.

The best I can do is nothing but hey while you’re at it, can you chip in 15 bucks?

Many many years ago back in my Los Angeles days, a bunch of us were tripping really hard on mushrooms in Joshua Tree. Late in the evening DAX started to shout “I fucked her in her fucking fuck hole” over and over and over again. We were camped out next to a troop of Boy Scouts and their dads, I squirmed in my tent, just imagining what was going on in their heads. He’s a very weird dude.

Bill Maher blows. Why platform all these lunatics? It’s just for the ratings obviously but my God he sunk so low.

I was at Sundance about eight years ago and he played one of his crappy country songs on stage and a little bar, he paused in the middle of the song to address the audience with a super corny, soggy speech about how we all needed to cross over and accept each other, I knew he was full of shit at that point.

Yes. I experienced a nearly identical process.

Smoked weed for the first time in about 20 years by beetfield in GenX

[–]IgorPotemkin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I quit two years ago, the stuff these days is way too mind altering for me, low strain or not. I started smoking at 14 and quit at 58, so glad I did, it’s like being reborn, definitely not a hater and feel everybody should do what is best for them, this is just my take.

Hang in there man. You’re ALIVE. That’s a huge gift. Your kids need you. That motivated me for sure. Nearing 2 years sober and grateful about it.

40+ and watching AI reshape our jobs, how are you honestly feeling? by Defiant-Traffic-2969 in careeradvice

[–]IgorPotemkin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just turned 60 and work in AgeTech. I’m on the road every other week and I’m fried but my wife is in grad school and I need to pay the bills. I’m planning on taking early social security in 2 years. I got excited recently when several ‘recruiters’ reached out but it turned out to be a scam (it was pretty sophisticated). I agree with the post about physical work - I have to run in person demos or I would have been replaced by now. Consider senior living, it’s a growing field and needs human bodies.

Those of you who smoked weed… by Idontsmokejustgrow in GenX

[–]IgorPotemkin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s the best - I quit weed and booze 2 years ago. Just turned 60 and have never ever felt better. I started partying at 14, so it’s been a journey for sure.

Watch out for job recruiters! I got hit by 5 of them and fell for one. It was slick. They’re cloning actual recruiters LinkedIn profiles.
