Yeah, fent is a synthetic opioid, typically manufactured for medical use. Cartels traffic in plant derivatives, which only require land rather than… you know, a whole pharmaceutical laboratory. I think it’s far more likely to be distributed by some official manufacturer with a McKinsy consultant.
It bugs me when historical maps are given shadow outlines of present-day boarders. Like, I get it’s utility for an at-a-glance comparison, but… if I wanted to compare, I can always just put a modern map next to it. I want a moment to try and imagine the space as it was, why must the future impose itself?
I wonder if there’s a viable business model in lobotomizing “smart” TVs. Like, a local shop that breaks warranty, removes the phone innards, and rewires everything to work with buttons.

There’s a money pit in this article, but it’s not the one the author is arguing…
A 500-mile line from Los Angeles to San Francisco under construction has grappled with costs spiraling to more than $100 billion and a still-uncertain completion date
compare to this from further down;
one of China’s priciest rail projects is taking shape, linking Tibet’s capital of Lhasa with the central city of Chengdu in Sichuan, at a cost of more than $50 billion
The distance from LA to San Fran is about 350 miles. A quick search puts the distance from Lhasa to Chengdu at 1,200 miles. It costs us a billion dollars for thee miles of track. China is building 24 miles of track for the same cost!
So, like, isn’t this the sort of thing the Eurozone exists to respond to? Like, you don’t fuck with individual members, you trade with all of us or none of us?
