Sure why not, like that restaurant that serves foods from countries we're currently at war with and which i assume thought they'd be able to change the menu more frequently when they first came up with the idea.

e: Apparently they now serve Palestinian food which is a biiiit of a stretch but ok

I thought the original idea was to only serve food from countries we've actually declared war on but either I'm misremembering that or it got boring so yeah I guess they could branch out into countries we're effectively at war with or by proxy at war with.

alcohol caffeine and thc, definitively yes

nicotine: lol.... maybe? https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/article/1701428/how-cook-using-tobacco-sweet-and-savoury-dishes

similar lines to qat and kratom

peeps use poppy seeds altho they aren't psychoactive, maybe an opium bagel would work

ayahuasca, mescaline, mushrooms are practically recipes already, altho prolly peeps wouldn't stay for dessert

Diamond mines are pretty fascinating imo, since diamonds generally occur where volcanism has blown rocks from deep underground up through a long, thin crater so you wind up with a funnel-shaped vein of diamonds that's fairly narrow but incredibly deep, and thus you get massive hell hole mines like that.

I mean it's horrible since they're super toxic and dangerous and all done in the name of the fuckin' diamond trade but the geology is cool at least :shrug:

Is it capitalism that after a school shooting leaves a kid dead they resume classes? Because I feel like there's something wrong with that situation in North Carolina.

Social reproduction at any cost I guess? Also, betting the teachers didn't get much of a say in the matter. If they had that kind of self-determination as workers, being forced to go back immediately to a workplace where violent murders happened would probably not be their first choice.

quote:

"This event actually began days before this morning. So what took place this morning was something that built up," Tyrrell said.

He said several people knew there was a chance of an altercation on Monday morning.

"And we just didn't have that information until after it happened," he said.

Wilcox said the schools don't have metal detectors and students aren't searched when they enter the building.
"Some have asked me, how could someone, especially a student, come on to one of our campus(es) with a loaded gun," Wilcox said. "And I wish I had an answer to that. There really is no easy answer."
it is capitalism as gently caress to know about a situation for days and then when it boils over immediately start pricing out metal detectors. God drat wilcox doesn't even want to pretend like anybody did their job here

Mars isn't for the rich. Mars sucks...there aint poo poo there, there's no Broadway theater, no cocaine, no heated swimming pools. Mars is for us, when the super rich send a billion poors off to Mars to mine for resources they'll stave off climate change for a few decades and buy themselves some more time on earth.

Sign me up then, I’d rather die on a cold lifeless rock than a hot humid greenhouse.

At least on Mars there’s a better chance for revolution since everyone there will be well educated and have no hope of seeing earth again (it wouldn’t be profitable to spend money bringing workers back to earth), making them less likely to feel loyalty to the oppressors.

Or at the very least I can open a hatch and kill myself when it gets to be too much for me.

This happens in Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy. They're very long and often loving boring books but it's an interesting concept

look motherfucker, if there is one place where we can have full communism, a place where only communism can allow survival, it’s goin to be Mars. We either go red, or get dead. It’s the red fuckin planet, it’s trying to tell us.

Mars looks at us from across the void, whispering into our hearts, “come to me, my communist comrades”.

When no one was looking, Serval took forty Japari buns. She took 40 buns. That's as many as four tens. And that's terrible.
That diamond mind reminds me of all those horrific industrial cities in Russia where the population is trapped and dying slowly from the air thats too thick to breathe.
Norilsk, and Karabash are the most commonly known ones but I bet there's hundreds of them all over the world in China and India etc. Ya'll have probably seen this but hey, it's capitalism right?

A good recrystalization of MDMA to get it reasonably pure would cut out most of that Id think.

^also putting it in a g&t would help mask it.


Most synthetic drugs are bitter or straight up taste terrible, and hell most of botanical origin are also bad tasting.
