This person is probably crying because you are eating a corn dog~ Why would anyone eat a corn dog~?

Actually… it’s the decriminalizing of hard drugs, not legalization of them~ (specifically a motion in Couvie BC). Regardless, the topic has veered off into stabbings in NYC and SF as well as marijuana~ It wasn’t myself who introduced the POV that use of “hard drugs” were responsible for other criminal acts or violence against non hard drug users~ I was responding to those interjected topics~ I was responding to some of the generalizations and stigmatization of “hard drug” users casually tossed out and assumed as truth regarding what substance use/abuse, addiction is~ The idea of singling out “hard drugs”, addicts and users of those as the foundation of violence without addressing the violence that occurs with things like alcohol/alcoholism~ If one was to look up the violence, violent crime, injuries and deaths associated with alcohol, (a decriminalized & legal drug), its a runner up with other drugs like cocaine, amphetamines, opiates, Ecstasy, cannabis and benzodiazepines~ The motion towards decriminalizing various drugs and restructuring how the law and society handles/views these situations also is a consideration of what the issues actually are and redefining the terms around it~ Additionally, it perhaps changes how money is allocated for services like drug testing, rehabilitation, counseling, and accessibility to medical services including mental illness~ One side note: aside from mental illness being a component of mass shootings, people’s personal extremism is also a component~ Its not necessarily mental illness, (unless you are suggesting that personal extremism is a form of mental illness and those who indulge there thus have a history of mental illness). It’s a health topic… hence why it’s here~

Yes… I noticed that about you: 🤭🥰🫶

My personal observations indicate that violence is not solely hard drug related… alcohol can contribute and there’s lots of addiction dependence on that drug… it’s actually something marketed and advertised… Do we just ignore deaths and injuries from drunk drivers because it’s a more acceptable drug~? Violence without any drugs at all happens plenty here in this country~ (weapons and discriminatory/hate related violence). I’m not really seeing that many of the mass shootings, (let’s say schools and chuches for example), in this country had anything to do with or were perpetuated by hard drugs~

Well… but, this particular “experiment” can’t be solely to blame~ Violent crime, theft, robbery has escalated significantly since 2016~ Perhaps the homelessness and violence is a symptom of a much larger concern In this country~

Well, along with some percentage of drug use comes some degree of increased violence and general crime~ (generally speaking). You mentioned: “…their positions are naive and show poor understanding of human behavior in the real world.” I wonder if their positions are not as much naive as allowing the potential for people to grow from subjecting themselves to bearing the weight and consequences of their own actions/words where, those who can and want to change their behavior may/will and those who don’t will suffer or parish, (inevitably providing an example of “what not to do” for others coming up behind them~). It’s kind of interesting to take the idea a step further beyond drug use being a “victimless crime and considering that life itself is a victimless crime”… well actually not a crime at all~ People may feel victimized but, it’s a very different matter~ So, whether drugs or life, people may feel victimized but, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are victims/victimized of any imagined crime by either drugs or life since neither is truly a “crime”~ Life itself isn’t a crime and drugs themselves are not “a crime”… “Crime” is a human derived term and concept~ (I’m not saying I believe in a lawless society or that I am a libertarian or believe in whatever that all is…)~

Interesting approach~ 👍 it would be awesome if they would also incorporate a needle exchange program into the city~ (perhaps they already do)… I ran a small scale one in Portland, Oregon for many years in an attempt to lower incidence rates of syphilis and Hep C~ (along with hygiene, food and clothing provisions). It was effective and there was cooperation and compliance~ Along with clean needles, people were encouraged to clean up their living areas using provided garbage/biohazard bags and bring bio hazardous materials/fecal waste etc., to our service tents and tables where we could properly dispose of them… In return, they were given laundry detergent and laundry vouchers, so they could clean their clothes which potentiated their ability to partake in “hired daily work”, a short term work service in the area~ in addition to needle exchange, I was working with the American Medical Student Association, (as an executive officer etc.,), utilizing pre meds to help in vaccination clinics, feet washing/food distribution/companionship at Operation Nightwatch, counseling of various kinds at Outside In youth at risk program, drug rehab @ DePaul, we collected clothing and home items like sheets and soap plus provided emotional/psychological support for women in transition of Portland, offered bike and helmet, safety clinics and seminars, gabe free community care at a medical clinic on the east side and also on the north side of town~ We also provided vet services and clean, canned pet foods for homeless individual’s pets~ (I still do the pet things at random times and especially during the winter holidays). That was all during the Mayor Katz era~ The approach then seemed to be more at integrating homeless individuals into society as opposed to giving them tents that, (though providing shelter), leaves them still isolated and under provided~ Tent communities have a potential to be chemically toxic and hygienically dangerous to homeless AND homed citizens~ (pets walking thru those areas as well…)~ Tents are not the solution~ Sometimes humor is a great conflict resolution practice… In jest I suggest: If Couvie’s program is successful, Seattle will be a ghost town~ 🤷‍♂️ (yet will always have outstandingly terrible traffic pattern infrastructure). Best of luck and success with the program Couvie~! May many be rewarded by your creativity and genuine efforts~

Did they also offer/mention to you Hormone reduction therapy using Bicalutamide and other substances like Lupron~? Bicalutamide is in a group of medications referred to as Antiandrogenics… These substances reduce the amount of testosterone in your body, (which exacerbates the growth of prostatic cancer cells), and ultimately reduces the size of malignancies if they are present~ Reducing the over all scale of the situation can allow for a more precisely targeted treatment using chemo or radiation therapy and potentially spare healthy/effected tissue~ Lupron is a shot (once every six months), and also reduces the levels of test in your body~ Other hormone reduction drugs include Orgovyx, (relugolix) and Xtandi, (enzalutamide)~ There are more… Lowering your test doesn’t/isn’t necessarily accompanied by ED or loss of libido but, can happen in some patients~ Where you are with your Prostate Cancer can be an influence, (or not), in such cases~

Amazing… 🙂

Stunning performance and heart in this…

The empath in me feels lots in so much but, these make me feel special things: it’s not about the obvious subject matters but, these songs mean various things to me: “Life things”… I don’t believe in or follow religions and am not a spiritual person, I have no faith or dependence in politics or human self importance in life~ I am true to life and living, (a broad topic perhaps),nothing more… These songs all bring something of life and living to me~

Does Nair work~?
