Recovering drug addict here, and HunterBiden is absolutely right. Shame never got me sober, It kept me using. Recovery happened because someone kept the door open long enough for me to walk through it. Harm reduction is how we keep that door open, you can't recover if you're dead! #WeDoRecover

For those who are on safer supply and not diverting their medications they should be able to continue with receiving carries. Making them go into a pharmacy 3 times a day or more could make them stop going, which would destabilize their lives. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.

President Johnson, in a November 9, 1968 letter to the Smothers Brothers: “It is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists . . . May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.”

Someone just sent me a bunch of examples of these. Apparently the site is flooded with them. There's gotta be a story behind all of these.

UNPRECEDENTED MOMENT IN HISTORY TENNIS
HISTORY: Tennis player Alexandra Eala shocked the tennis world when she called on the TENNIS community to observe a moment of silence in memory of Charlie Kirk. In a tearful speech, Alexandra Eala said: "It is heartbreaking to see America lose such an important voice. My deepest condolences to their families and loved ones. This is not only their loss, but also a reminder that we must come together, respect each other, and defend the values that this country holds dear."

Last night in Nashville, James Hetfield delivered a moment so powerful it left an entire stadium breathless. In the middle of his set-just as the music thundered and the lights blazed-he suddenly stopped. Holding the microphone close, his voice rang out across the crowd, asking everyone to join him in a one-minute moment of silence for Charlie Kirk and the innocent lives lost on 9/11.
And then, silence. More than 25,000 people stood still -no cheers, no music, only reverence. A single minute passed, heavy with sorrow, yet radiant with unity.
When the silence ended, James Hetfield lifted his voice. Soft at first, then rising strong, he began to sing "God Bless America." The crowd erupted-tens of thousands of voices soaring together, filling the night sky with a chorus of hope and pride. American flags waved high. Tears streamed down faces. What had been silence became a tidal wave of song, spirit, and unbreakable togetherness.
James Hetfield didn't just pause a concert-he transformed it into a sacred tribute, a reminder of loss, resilience, and the grace of a nation standing as one.Bogus Facebook post from "Yankees Nation"
