      Hard for me to understand. Not that I am against cocaine but having it at home is a risk and selling it for $20-100k is also not worth it to me facing a few decades in prison

      I mean … it’s not exactly labeled, is it? You just going to put random powder into your body? I can’t imagine a world where that’s not a death sentence.

        Then you lack imagination

        There are testing kits for just this kind of situation. I’ve found maybe a dozen random bags of drugs on the ground in my life. I’m definitely not recommending people so drugs they find, I’m just telling you it’s very much not a death sentence.

          I too have enjoyed many ground scores over the years. Only once did i toss it. I think I found ~ a gram of some really shitty shake and bake meth. Not big on meth and it just looked foul. Just glad someone else didn’t pick it up.

          One of the craziest was finding an 1/8th of fire coke on my birthday after having to work a double. I was so mad all day after realizing we were going to be stuck on a job to get a building back in service on my birthday. I pulled into a 7-11 to get a drink and when I opened the car door and looked down I could not believe my eyes. I looked around the parking lot , did a big yawn and stretch then bent down to tie my shoe expecting at any minute someone was going to say hey man that’s mine. Grabbed it, hoped back in the truck and slowly drove home.

          The gods must be crazy!

                I wonder how well it’s aged.

                My teenage daughter loved Hercules Returns, but she’s quite keen on watching stuff. I reckon my son would enjoy it, but he’d rather have interaction in his screen time, it seems 🤷‍♂️

                  I used to have an issue with the movie in my teenage years where I thought people were being exploited. I watched it again on DVD and in the extras there was a short doc from the late 90’s ~ early 2k and while maybe it was propaganda my mind was changed a bit. It really was a wholesome comedy. There are a few jokes that may have adults laughing and fly over a young child’s head. I was always left with a positive view of the native actors and their culture. If anything it shows how a person should remain humble and do the right thing while not acting like the people from the world.
