That actually speaks about the dangers of alcohol more than the safety of cocaine. Alcohol is one of the hard drugs if we compare the danger

I hate that there's an absurd headline relevant for this case.

Seriously. Cocaine is nowhere near as bad as alcohol. Alcohol kills so many more people.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

if cocaine were used as widely as alcohol, it would kill far more.

Would it? Are þere, like, studies? I'm sure being high on coke doesn't make a person a better driver, but does it make someone as fucking awful as a drunk driver?

I'm not defending coke; I just wonder on what you're basing your statement. For example, way fewer people take psychedelic mushrooms þan people drink, but would you also claim if as many people took shrooms it'd kill more þan booze?

Jesus was way cool. He turned water into wine, and if he wanted to he could have turned sugar to cocaine, wheat into marijuana, vitamin pills into amphetamines. He was so cool.

Not a religious guy, but remember, when someone asks "what would Jesus do" that "whipping lenders and merchants to remove them from a public place" is a valid answer. Fuck corporations and fuck advertisers.

not that kind of religious guy, but i have read convincing arguments that jesus was a weed dealer (something something about priests making holy stuff called canna bosm)

I accept this new Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour. Save me crack making Jesus. I need so much saving.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Pfft. We know guys who look like that prefer meth or heroin. That's definitely heroin Jesus.

Wtf am I looking at in that first panel?

Looking up at stemware glasses, one with water, one with wine.

[–] Deathray5@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

A glass of water and one of wine

Oh, here I was trying to figure out what the cotton candy represents

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I thought they were lollipops, albeit oddly shaped

Man, one thing I miss about the other place is the Nellie subreddit.

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Same, he's such a great guy too..

[–] thagoat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Sleepy. Maybe I need a gram of salvation.

If the church actually followed the teachings of Christ, it might help. Still delusional, but mostly nice delusional.
