  • 2 arrested in Vancouver police crackdown on unsanctioned safe drug supply program
  • This is so ass backwards.

    We give access to street level users, who view this as a source of income. They know there's a market for safer drugs, so they sell what they get. Meanwhile, that market, they aren't allowed access to the safer drugs, and so they go to the secondary market, where they are trivially available.

    We don't allow access to the people who want the drugs, we only allow access to the people who want a money resource. And we wonder why their being diverted? Are we on drugs?

  • Can I get mad at someone I bartered with to do a job that did not do that job?

    I worked out a trade deal for someone to do some soldering for me. I had three devices that needed soldering, and they could keep one for themselves if they soldered the three of them for me. Today I discovered that they didn't even attempt the soldering, they fucked up all three of the devices, such that the soldering job can no longer be done by anyone, and they want me to compensate them for the time they wasted trying to fix them without soldering. I asked them to do the job, in trade for keeping one, because I am ill and my hands won't do fine work any more. I definitely don't want to pay them for not doing the job I asked, which I asked them to do because I couldn't afford to pay someone to do it. The job is still not done and can never be done now. Am I wrong to be angry with them? Do I have to be grateful and compensate them for their time that they wasted not doing what I asked them to do?

    Anybody feel like 2023 could be another 1997 for Star Trek?

    The quality of Star Trek in 1997 was an embarrassment of riches. Some of the best parts of the Dominion War on Deep Space Nine, Scorpion and Year Of Hell on Voyager, and First Contact in theaters. It was a great year to be a Star Trek fan!

    The quality of Star Trek that I've seen this year has been giving me similar feelings, watching them hit it out of the park every week, wondering how they are going to top the last one then watching them do it, again and again. Is it just me?

    Am I the only one? I haven't seen anybody talking about this show, and although it started off slow, it blew me away by the end.
