To this day primary care physicians say how are you not in pain management you need to go and get pain management and I refuse. I have known heroin users who used for a lifetime and lived full lives. Fentanyl has caused more deaths in the last year in the US than in US history.

When I became an oncology hematology patient in 2013 the oncologist said you're going to be a pain and very sick get your medical cannabis card. Primary Care said you're going to be in pain and very sick I'm going to prescribe the fentanyl patch. Fuck no was my impulsive response

Rainbow Fentanyl hit Tucson early and hard. Kids are targeted more for distribution purposes than specific use. Far sicker and unacceptable in an age where we are doing nothing about an opiod crisis on a social level. Make big pharma distribute narcan widely for free is a start.

In fact, @Trevornoah pissed me off recently with commentary regarding fears about Rainbow Fentanyl being marketed to kids and including the expungment of prisoners with non violent crimes involving Cannabis. His facts are skewed and the two issues are not even closely related.

I have not found a current late night host I find I consistently like. John Stewart's political stance I greatly admire, Colbert's relentlessness too. Trevor Noah is bright, but not that funny to me. Conan was too silly, no one else grabbed my attention in US or anywhere really.

It took me by surprise to realize it myself. I stopped paying for most streaming, do not pay for cable, have air TV (free), Hulu, and pay for YouTube now. Rest I live through commercials and Amazon and Apple are shitlisted, Netflix no longer very valuable, Hulu I still use.

Oh I must check that out thank you! It's a real pleasure to revisit past enjoyable things I didn't have quite the appreciation for then.

Of course I grew up with Johnny Carson but it was David Letterman who became my favorite late night talk show host. Such new appreciation for Johnny Carson's incredible ability to interview anyone from Carl Sagan to a young Frank Abagnale. Who's your favorite late night host?

It's interesting to find my most visited and enjoyed website has become YouTube. talks, courses, presentations, historical and philosophical topics as well as great music, especially live gems I've never seen. I didn't know for example Prince was such a remarkable guitar player.

Haha, it is. I liked the wordplay and the dark meaning as well as the experience of it being rather true for me at least. and yes "deep" :) I sure amused myself with that one, still giggling ;-)

LOL! Even if we go through bedrock we are still underneath it. Since I can't play most games due to photosensitive epilepsy I don't know what you land on after you land below the bedrock layer ;-)

The first week of October this year was my second worst. October 1st 2017 death of my mother followed immediately by the Las Vegas Massacre. I heard shot and every scream echoing up and down the strip followed by 2 days of darkness and absolute silence. Bring the better please!

Okay I got you now it's words of course that always trip me up me being me and word obsessed LOL I would have to agree with all of the above my dear I would have just been more specific in the language personally. I'm a little bit literal like that ;-)
