@SkinnyTuna @chc40 Nah, sure I have.

@TFisherson @chc40 u havent

Anyone have any ideas for a cool Twitter bot I can make to practice using the Twitter API (which is fucking horrible btw) ?

@BornsToSaveLife They should see a doctor ASAP - their organs are falling out!

@TooSmalley @hieronymus_burp @Patrick_Wyman Most of these are generic enough to not be impressive at all, and some of these are straight up wrong. The world is more peaceful right now than it has ever been. Crime and terrorism was a much bigger problem in the 80s and 90s.

@NewStoryCharity @Bitcoinbeach @galoy This seems like a horrible idea lmao

We believe web3 technology can make affordable housing more accessible. That’s why we’re working with @BitcoinBeach and @Galoy to build the world’s first community that offers bitcoin-based mortgages.

@pickover That's just depressing. Please kill me before I have dementia.

@angelbeing15 You know that moment where you want to be nice but you don't because every time you've been nice to people, people have taken advantage of you...

"I and the Father are One", "Atman is Brahman", "We are all One consciousness experiencing itself subjectively" - the same old tale sung in myriad forms.

I think that the story of Jesus is the most profound story ever told, and that Christianity didn't understand a bit of it.

"Nature is wonderful!"

@BrianRoemmele What about the moon?

Earth in the middle of the rings of Saturn for scale.

@AustinCthulhu Still means waiting an hour trying to reach someone from my bank. Ugh, everything is such a pain in the ass.

@Alyssa27786 @NBCNews Humans have used drugs for all of history and probably in pre-history too since even apes love alcohol from fermented fruits. Making drugs illegal isn't going to stop people from using drugs, it just makes them a hundred times more dangerous than they need to be.

Drug overdose deaths in the US surpassed 100,000 in a 12-month period for the first time, CDC says. nbcnews.to/3FuKtjK

@NBCNews Ending the War on Drugs is the only thing that will stop this insanity. Synthetic opiates are here to stay as long as drugs remain illegal. 40 years of the War on Drugs, and drugs are available as much as ever, and much more dangerous than they were in the 80s.

It becomes much harder to hate a person or be indifferent to their suffering when you realize that they are you in a different lifeline.

The War on Drugs is a failure on every metric. Nearly 100,000 people ODing on fentanyl is a national emergency. People are dying because of our failed policies. It's time to try something radically new. Drug addicts deserve compassion, not prison.

Legalize heroin. Produce cheap, pharm grade heroin at industrial scales and give addicts prescriptions they can fill at any pharmacy at their own convenience. It would solve the fentanyl crisis overnight. It would dry up revenue for criminal gangs.

Now doctors have direct access to people who use drugs, and can give them supplies and harm reduction tips, and steer them toward treatment if and when they want to quit. Now drug users won't have their lives destroyed by a non-violent drug charge.

Now inner-city gangs aren't killing each other for which corners they can sell crack and heroin at. Now Mexican drug cartels aren't pulling in billions in revenue each year from illegal drugs. Now tens of thousands of opiate users aren't ODing on fent-laced product.
