Cops lie all the time about being contact poisoned with fentanyl, saying touching someone using/some contaminated surface RESULTED IN FOUR COPS OVERDOSING AND NEARLY DYING !!!11!!1 despite the fact that this is physically not possible. Primarily it is done to either hide the fact that cops are using, or to fearmonger about fentanyl and addicts. No this cop wasn't using fentanyl, it was some junkie scum who used and then when the cop touched the desk it was strong enough to make him OD ! Also if fentanyl can make four pigs OD just by touching traces, what would happen if little Jimmy had touched it ? we have to kill junkies to protect our cops and your children !!
The joke is that theyve blown it so far out of proportion that even being faxed an image of fentanyl would cause the whole precinct to OD and keel over dead.
oh i see
thank you for explaining it to me :)

Reblog to make all the cops die from touching a fax machine
Adding to this, y’all realize that if fentanyl could kill you merely by existing in its presence a lot of healthcare workers and healthcare patients would be dead. Heck, I had to clean up a broken fentanyl vial at work the other day and even touched a droplet of the liquid by accident, and I’m still alive. This isn’t even looking at how stigmatizing drugs and drug users like this makes them less likely to seek help for their situation.
oh BOY
I’ve never felt so amazing. I’ve never had such a perfect night. Conal was just perfect. Date number 2 was incredible. All of these words don’t even begin to describe how the night went. He began with arriving exactly on time, which actually made me so happy. I love it when people are early or on time for stuff. Then we went in and we did our game of bowling (I won 😆), it was great fun, we laughed and talked during it which was just so good. Then we went upstairs to the arcade, it was so fun and funny, he insisted on paying for stuff, which I of course wanted to pay for stuff but he was having none of it. I still paid for some stuff. But in all fairness it didn’t bother me to much.
We had fun with that and then realised it was still an hour till the film we’d booked, so we sat and chatted. I can honestly say that I could sit and talk to him all day and I’d be so incredibly happy. It was just so nice. We had the cookies I brought. He was impressed by my baking skills. I’m glad, I’ll be making him more stuff in the future I’m sure.
Film was great I wanted to lean on his shoulder and relax there but I felt too shy. After the film we went for dinner and had a deep meaningful conversation but it was mostly light hearted and just nice.
Then we headed to the buses and it turned out there was an hour till my bus and he refused to leave me alone in town which I was very glad of so we went to get hot choclates together. We sat and talked again, laughed a lot, just had a good time being together.
But the best part by far has to be when we were getting to the buses. We got there and we thought that the bus sitting there was a 6a so he needed to board it of course. Before he did so he asked if he could kiss me, it was really cute, his eyes got super soft and he was smiling and blushing. Of course I said yes. I got the best kid of my life. We made out for what must have been just a few seconds but felt like forever to me. I honestly felt nothing else, just him. I didn’t hear anything or feel anything else apart from him. It was only him. It felt amazing. Just so right. I wanted it to last forever but of course all good things come to an end. Sound returned to my ears and I was anchored back to reality. However, turns out it wasn’t his bus it was actually mine. So he came back, explained, and after an awkward laugh he kissed me again. Longer this time, so much more amazing than the last. It was so good. There was a little bit of tongue which felt so nice. It’s never been notable before when I kissed someone but this time it was. It didn’t feel too much, it just felt so right and so much better than I expected. It was gentle and natural. That kiss could have lasted forever. Under the bus stop, enjoying each other and intertwining ourselves till there was only the feeling of him. No sound. No feeling of the cold wind. I couldn’t feel the ground beneath my feet. I was just floating in his kiss. It was like magic. He is magic
It was magic.

What does it mean to be a billionaire?
So there’s been a lot of discussion floating around regarding billionaires and society, and I’ve noticed that most people have no idea what a billion dollars is for practical purposes - people tend to think of it as a vague, nebulous concept of “a lot of money” rather than something concrete you can wrap your head around. This is understandable, considering 1) a billion of anything is really hard to visualize and 2) the average person has no real reference point for an amount of money that large. So I’m going to try to break it down for everyone:
Okay, so imagine you have a billion dollars. What can you actually buy with that?
This is a mega mansion that will have an Imax cinema, a bowling alley, and a spa when it’s fully complete. It costs around 4.6 million dollars.
Now let’s buy one of these in every country in Europe - that’s 50 mansions you now own. So how are you going to travel between all your many homes?
This is a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, the fastest street-legal car in the world. It has a maximum speed of a face-melting 254 mph and can go from 0 to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds. It costs around 2.5 million dollars.
Let’s buy a dozen of them - you know, in case you total a few of them racing around the highway. But maybe a sports car is still to slow for you:
This is an Embraer Lineage 1000. It’s private jet that can seat up to 19 passengers, and we’re going to buy it for 53 million dollars.
How about a boat? The Tatoosh is a 303 ft private yacht, meaning it’s longer than a football field. We’ll take it for 369 million dollars.
Do you like art? Just for fun let’s buy Monet’s most expensive painting ($90 million) Van Gogh’s most expensive painting ($151 million), and this monstrosity, which is made with 8,601 diamonds and costs 65 million dollars.
Now that we’ve gone on our ludicrous and absurdly wasteful shopping spree, how much money do we have leftover? About 12 million dollars, which is almost an order of magnitude more than the average American with a bachelors degree or higher earns in a lifetime ($1.8 million). So if you for whatever reason decided to buy the 50 houses, 12 sports cars, plane, yacht, art pieces etc. and immediately set them all on fire, you would still have enough cash leftover so you never would have to work again if you so chose. This is what it means to be a billionaire.
But we’re not done yet.
The richest person in the world is Bill Gates, with a net worth of 86 billion dollars. If he liquidated his assets, what could he buy?
Well, for starters, the Burj Khalifa - the tallest man-made structure in the world at 2,722 feet tall, costing around 1.5 billion dollars.
The Large Hadron Collider, the world’s biggest and most advanced particle accelerator for 9 billion dollars.
The Hubble Space Telescope for 10 billion dollars (including 20 years of operating costs).
The Three Gorges Dam, the largest power station in the world, more than a mile wide.
And to top it all off, a fleet of five Nimitz-class aircraft carriers, the largest military vessels ever built for around 8.9 billion dollars each. If you look at the picture very closely you can see the people standing on it for reference.
If Bill Gates bought all of this, he would still have around 2.3 billion dollars leftover. That’s enough to go on the billionaire shopping spree I described above twice over (so 100 mansions, 24 sports cars etc.) and still have hundreds of millions of dollars in the bank when it’s all said and done.
But we’re not done yet.
Currently, it’s estimated that there are 2,043 billionaires alive today, with a combined net worth of around 7.67 trillion dollars.
This is Russia, the largest country in the world, extending more than six and a half million square miles, with a population of more than 144 million people. The United Kingdom could fit inside Russia 70 times.
In 2016 Russia’s gross domestic product was about 1.28 trillion dollars. This means that if the two thousand and some odd richest people in the world - less than half of 0.1% of 0.1% of the Earth’s population - liquidated and pooled their assets together, they could buy every single product and service made in Russia for almost 6 years.
So yeah, make of that what you will.
1 YEAR UPDATE
So it’s been just a little bit over a year since I’ve made this post, and holy shit I didn’t expect it to get so many notes… anyway thought I’d make an update. First, a few responses to common criticisms I noticed:
“That house costs more than you said it costs”
I provided sources for everything, I can’t click on the links for you broski.
“The map of Russia is incorrect”
Strange, my bad… didn’t notice until after I posted that the map I used includes Belarus and a few other countries as part of Russia, no idea why they did that, I should have picked a better map.
“Net worth somehow doesn’t count as worth because not all of it is literal stacks of cash”
First of all I distinctly specified that my figures were based on if said billionaires liquidated their assets, but more importantly that’s like sitting on top of a pile of solid gold bars and claiming you’re totally broke because you can’t use them at the supermarket. Seriously, this is just asinine.
*Insert impassioned defense of capitalism here*
Now if you follow my blog it’s pretty obvious that I’m a leftist, but something I did very deliberately for my billionaire essay was try to avoid ever mentioning left politics or making any moral judgements, i.e. more or less everything I wrote in that post was just objective, inarguable facts. I very intentionally ended the essay with “make of that what you will,” without ever actually commenting on whether the situation was good or bad. If you consider yourself a capitalist and want to remain consistent with reality, you really shouldn’t be offended by this post. If your first response upon looking at a neutral series of data points is to immediately rush to defend the system that produced it, it means you instinctually realize something is terribly wrong and you’re trying to justify it. Just saying, not a good position to be arguing from.
ANYWAY
As of the time of this update, Bill Gates is no longer the richest person in the world; the title now belongs to Amazon’s Jeff Bezos with with a mind-blowing $147.7 billion. Now, what could he actually do with all of that? Let’s make a list!
End Homelessness in America
There are an estimated 553,742 homeless people in America. Jeff Bezos could hand every single one of them $50,000 cash for $27,687,100,000, which should be more than enough to get a roof over your head for a decent amount of time.
Give 100,000 students a full ride to Harvard
Going to Harvard University will cost a student about 60,659 a year including tuition, room and board, and various other fees. Paying for a full 4 years for 100,000 students would cost $24,263,600,000.
Buy Iceland for a year
The gross domestic product of Iceland is currently about $23.9 billion dollars, which means for that amount Jeff Bezos could buy every single product and service produced in the country for an entire year.
Fund every US national park for 10 years
This year’s budget for the national park service will probably be about $2.7 billion, so 10 years of funding would be $27 billion.
Give every Amazon worker a $20,000 bonus
Jeff Bezos has 563,100 employees working for Amazon. He could give each and every one of them a $20,000 bonus for $ 11,262,000,000.
End world hunger
It would probably cost around $30 billion to ensure that no person in the entire world suffered starvation and malnourishment this year.
And how much does Jeff have left?
After doing all of that, Bezos would still have upwards of $3.5 billion left over, which is not only far, far more money than a single person could ever spend on themselves, it also would mean he still gets to remain substantially richer than most other billionaires.
Funny world we live in.
Hey! Fun reminder to fucking eat the rich!
when is the revolution starting??? this is getting ridiculous
[wondering how much 2,043 bullets would cost]
Uuuuggggg
I swear I’m starting to get desperate again, I need some, I really need some. I have needs and goddamn it they aren’t being fulfilled. There’s only so much one woman can do. And it’s making me think back to when me and person A had our wee fling for a few months and I’m realising I really really really want to kiss someone. I miss that feeling. It was so nice, sex is brilliant and intamte but a kiss has something else to it that I can’t put my finger on. It’s really difficult tho because of two things; I’m the most unattractive person on this planet and nobody’s interested in me. Honestly nobody’s flirting with me, nobody’s interested which is super annoying. Being alone physically just sucks a lot. Especially when I hear about my other friends enjoying themselves in that way and then there’s me who’s just fuckless. Idk I’d just really love to feel the push of someone else’s lips against my own, to be held close and to be enjoyed. Idk. I’m just a horny teenager as always who really just needs to get fucked on the daily preferable but like at least the monthly.
thinking about him
