Many (not all) of those things were results of the criminalization of drugs, as well as our refusal to take care of people with mental health issues. Most overdoses could be avoide…

Well I'm not sure that's the point I would have taken away from your comment, but oh well... What it comes down to (which is what it always comes down to in capitalism), is capital…

I wouldn't say it went terribly in terms of rights, necessarily. The French Revolution was a massive influence on every other post-enlightenment democracy that came after it. Witho…

"True" indie games are far from dead, there are just different degrees of quality and success. Yeah, there is a lot of shovelware, but there are also tons of amazing indie games co…

Super interesting video, thanks. The drills they were doing in the beginning were fascinating. It seems like each person had a responsibility that only lasted a few seconds before …

If you decide to start a business somewhere with a VAT, then you have to factor that into your pricing model, or else you're going to have a bad time. If you can't make a profit an…

I'm curious, what would be some examples where conservatives warned that some "lack of principles" would lead to a "breakdown of society," and were actually correct? Certainly not …

It can also be used to treat benzodiazapine withdrawal.

What would a few examples of "stoner societies" be? The only possible one I could think of (and it's a stretch) would be Jamaica, but I'm pretty sure the issues they've had are mor…
