No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Fentanyl is frequently being mixed with a potent animal tranquilizer called
xylazine (known on the street as "tranq" or "tranq dope"), creating a dangerous and often fatal combination. This mixture has been declared an "emerging threat
So yeah it’s out there
According to whom?
Are you being deliberately contrarian or do you me a to imply the opioid AND fentanyl epidemic are somehow made up?
pretty sure they're just asking for sources
Their response to me indicates otherwise
Just because heroin and fentanyl are prevalent on the streets doesn't mean that every claim that sounds like it was sourced from a 1990s chain letter is true. That's an absurd assertion.
There are literal documentaries talking about this.
Here’s one source
Source
And another
2nd source
Two government sources, which as we all know always report truthfully and without bias about street drugs. The same government that made weed illegal because it "lead to race mixing," "jazz musicians to create Satanic music," and caused people to go violently insane.
I also watched a report from Mariana Van Zeller about the drug. She got in contact with people that make the drug and she got a chance to interview police who have to deal with the mess.
Can’t find a link to her report.
My dude heroin is being cut with fentanyl because it’s significantly more potent and so you can step on it more ( add other shit to make it stretch ) to sell.
The opioid crisis was bad enough before fent hit the streets in it. This is a known thing, totally unrelated to the stupid “they put razor blades in my marijuanas”
So that means xylazine is "frequently" being mixed in and it even has its own name "tranq?"
Tranq is short for tranquilizer.
There are lots of names for this.
I’ve heard tranq dope before, yeah.
Hell instead of being the way you are just google or ddg “tranq”
It would have taken you mere seconds.
