Again, I wonder how routine colonoscopies use a weapon of mass destruction as a sedative.
President Trump describes fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction that fuels lawlessness, saying the opioid is “closer to a chemical weapon than a narcotic.” But some experts say it is a stretch to call an addictive drug a weapon of mass destruction.
Trump declared fentanyl a weapon of mass destruction. What does it mean?
The declaration of fentanyl a weapon of mass destruction is the latest move by President Donald Trump casting the nation’s deadly drug crisis as a national security issue.

I'm confused when people say magic doesn't need rules or systems. If magic didn't have rules, then how would you know how which card kills another card? I'm confused.

I still haven’t figured out if UK politicians know this
Something I hope everyone covers this tomorrow notes is that...the President has no authority whatsoever to make trade deals without congress. None. Not even the pretext of one.
New: Trump is expected to announce on Thursday that the US will strike a trade deal with the UK, according to a person familiar with the matter, the first agreement for the administration since it imposed sweeping tariffs against its trading partners last month @theguardian.com story TK

i know i'm talking a LOT about the glories of the 1990s/early 2000s web and YES part of it is nostalgia, but i honestly believe that bringing back human-made blogging and links free from Meta/Twitter can actually contribute to our political and social survival in this new awful era so LET'S DO THIS
