Bohemian Tree Villa Nestled In India

Just a few feet away from the Kuda caves in Tala, Maharashtra lies an idyllic resort, the perfect spot for poets to spill their hearts’ desires and for painters to capture the essence of rural India on their canvas.

I’d honestly rather millions of drug addicts get safe opiates from doctors, than a single person with chronic pain go without because of the drug addiction fear mongering in the medical community.

Notwithstanding the fact that providing drug addicts with drugs actually decreases addiction rates. As well as saves lives on all ends, because drug addicts are less likely to overdose on unsafe street drugs cut with god knows what, and disabled people are less likely to die from self-medication.

It also decreases the spread of STDs, and so on. There’s endless benefits to it. But uh I guess keep fucking punishing disabled people and addicts because it makes yall feel morally superior or some shit–getting people killed for ideological purity.

Portugal legalized everything, with a couple caveats. If you’re found with (large amounts of, IIRC) drugs multiple times, you get a panel. The panel consists of a lawyer, a judge, and a doctor. Their job is to help you deal with addiction–not PUNISH YOU for having drugs, but help you overcome addiction.

The results? Oh baby, the results are fantastic. Portugal has far less addiction and fewer overdoses than basically anyone else. They’re treating drug problems as medical problems instead of crimes, and it’s absolutely working!

Oh, and America’s opiod crisis? Basically entirely the fault of drug corporations pushing high power painkillers on doctors/patients, including selling oxycontin with a 12 hour dose regimen when studies showed it really didn’t work that long, and refusing to adjust to the science.

And since, oops, it’s highly addictive, people end up getting cut off and then going for street opiods to deal. Instead of, y’know, being properly aided by medical professionals.

America insists on treating drug addiction as a moral failing instead of a medical condition, and it’s killing people.

And now a lot of doctors won’t prescribe them, which fucks over people like me who can’t function without the pain control they provide. And since the pharmacy companies charge an assbutt for oxycontin and for abuse-resistant things like Xtampza, insurance companies won’t pay for them.

Which leaves people like me taking … morphine.

wordsthat-speak

Yesterday, I spent 60 dollars on groceries, took the bus home, carried both bags with two good arms back to my studio apartment and cooked myself dinner. You and I may have different definitions of a good day. This week, I paid my rent and my credit card bill, worked 60 hours between my two jobs, only saw the sun on my cigarette breaks and slept like a rock. Flossed in the morning, locked my door, and remembered to buy eggs. My mother is proud of me. It is not the kind of pride she brags about at the golf course. She doesn’t combat topics like, ”My daughter got into Yale” with, ”Oh yeah, my daughter remembered to buy eggs” But she is proud. See, she remembers what came before this. The weeks where I forgot how to use my muscles, how I would stay as silent as a thick fog for weeks. She thought each phone call from an unknown number was the notice of my suicide. These were the bad days. My life was a gift that I wanted to return. My head was a house of leaking faucets and burnt-out lightbulbs. Depression, is a good lover. So attentive; has this innate way of making everything about you. And it is easy to forget that your bedroom is not the world, That the dark shadows your pain casts is not mood-lighting. It is easier to stay in this abusive relationship than fix the problems it has created. Today, I slept in until 10, cleaned every dish I own, fought with the bank, took care of paperwork. You and I might have different definitions of adulthood. I don’t work for salary, I didn’t graduate from college, but I don’t speak for others anymore, and I don’t regret anything I can’t genuinely apologize for. And my mother is proud of me. I burned down a house of depression, I painted over murals of greyscale, and it was hard to rewrite my life into one I wanted to live But today, I want to live. I didn’t salivate over sharp knives, or envy the boy who tossed himself off the Brooklyn bridge. I just cleaned my bathroom, did the laundry, called my brother. Told him, “it was a good day.

every single negative stereotype about women was dreamt up by men who were projecting. fight me about it.

bimbocracy

“women can’t drive”

It is so well known that women are better and safer drivers than men that OUR CAR INSURANCE RATES ARE LOWER. Women get into fewer accidents, get fewer DUIs, and receive fewer speeding tickets than men.

“women never shut up”

Several scientific studies have shown that not only do men talk more than women, they also think that women have been talking for much longer than they actually have. Men interrupt and talk over women, dominate conversations, and still think women talk too much.

“women are shallow”

Lol next

“my wife is my ball and chain lmao”

Multiple studies have shown that marriage between men and women: Increases male lifespan, decreases female lifespan Decreases male depression rates, increases female depression rates Decreases male stress levels, increases female stress levels Increases male health and happiness, decreases female health and happiness Increases a man’s chance of getting a raise or promotion, decreases a woman’s chances of getting a raise or promotion

“women are too emotional”

Men love to say this about women after hurting them, in order to shift the blame and dismiss their feelings in one go. In reality, women are taught to hold our tongues and control ourselves quite literally from birth. We’re taught to put men’s needs and wants ahead of our own emotions regardless of the personal cost. Men are taught to do more or less whatever the fuck they want to women. Men take their emotions out on women while women are expected to shove theirs down.

I could go on and on but I don’t really think I need to.

I don’t want to see this quirky shit until all the black people who are in jail for small marijuana charges are released.

darkdeepsstuff

Unusual for me but getting rid of race there. It’s not just the african americans ya nitwits. Until all people smoking marijuana charges are free to live their lives

weavemama

… black people are literally 3.73 times more likely to get arrested for possession of marijuana than white people. on top of that, black people are incarcerated at more than 5 times the rate of white ppl…. not to mention deadly police officers use marijuana as a justification to abuse their power amongst the black community. this issue is inherently racist and it always has been. so yes,…. “I don’t want to see this quirky shit until all the black people who are in jail for small marijuana charges are released.”

you can’t “all lives matter” facts fam.
