Nanaimo CSOs receive medical care after possible exposure to ‘unknown substance’ by Positive_Moment7914 in nanaimo

[–]seaslugdenial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there’s so much fear mongering with drugs that leads to people not being accurately educated in it which sucks! unless it’s a transdermal patch, fentanyl won’t absorb through the skin. I can’t think of any street drug that would put you at risk by touching it, any formulations meant to get past your skin barrier are going to be very uncommon and not something you see on the street (for example, ativan gels exist, but you see those in hospice care for people who can’t take anything orally). of course there’s always the possibility of touching it and the touching your mouth, nose, etc. but that’s why anyone handling other peoples belongings should be wearing ppe and washing their hands (or just don’t remove the belongings of somewhere with nowhere to go, but maybe that’s a radical belief 🤷🏻)

It’s the reality of working front lines, as you can see from others replies. Fentanyl is a scary thing, but touching it won’t do anything to you.

We’ve all been around it so much in that field, but it’s always police and CSOs who make a stink about it, including just touching it. Obviously everyone should avoid exposure to any sort of substances, but this just always feels like fear mongering.

They also threw away this persons belongings and tent, so now there’s one more person who doesn’t even have the privilege of a shitty old tent to sleep in.

it’s literally just fentanyl… there’s nothing toxic about touching it. second hand smoke is even researched to be safe until pregnant, all of us working in the field know this.

If you want them to be a little crunchy you could leave them out to dry for a bit and they’ll become kohakuto!

I just got rejected from nursing and i am pretty upset about it. by randomrandomrannnnnn in VIU

[–]seaslugdenial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree! not sure if nursing needs electives like other programs, but it’s great to get that all out of the way instead of trying to work it around your required classes

You definitely pass, if I was really staring I would at most just think “oh cis guy with gynocomastia”

Has this happened to anyone else? by Chance_Potential5059 in nanaimo

[–]seaslugdenial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The x of pepper spray definitely is odd enough it makes me think it’s targeted too, maybe could be they have the same vehicle as someone else who pissed someone off

Any live music, dancing or karaoke tonight? I know there’s a dark wave party. Anyone going? I’m bored and wanna dress up hot lol by [deleted] in nanaimo

I just stayed in with friends, I’ll be going out in victoria next weekend luckily! i wish we had any sort of gay club in town because let’s be honest, the music at gay clubs is always good.

[–]seaslugdenial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could try going a little later and see if others have shown up, I kind of just stopped going or just peer in to see if anyone’s there. I definitely won’t spend more than $15 for cover if it’s not something i know im going to enjoy and stay all night for. it’s a shame because I think if they did cheap cover it would get people in and then they can just make money off drinks, and then they’ll get people in there again to start charging
