(relatively low stakes, as in like not 9/11 or JFK level)

Mine: plastic straw (and now plastic cutlery) ban initiatives are directly funded by petrochemical companies. Plastic straws are one of the most common and useful types of disposable plastic an average American encounters every day, so banning them causes people a huge inconvenience and tarnishes the idea of other green initiatives (that might have actual teeth) as more nanny state "not allowed to have this"-ery (also has the side effect of making gullible libs think they're actually doing something to help the planet by using a reusable straw while they get their plastic container of meat products)

      I've heard it has a lot of potential for treating depression. I hope I can afford the treatments, since insurance won't cover it due to the lack of FDA approval.

        Anecdotally friends have told me it’s helped their depression. I hope when you find some it works for you. Also heard you don’t need to take it daily to receive the longer term effects.

          Yeah the doctor said I could go once a week and after several times, I might not need it anymore. Some people have had permanent improvements in their depression symptoms after only a few sets of treatments.

      Addicted to ketamine, I am; drive over people in my 2001 Honda civic, I must.

      i accidently cured my depression with it when i was younger. i got a hold of some just regularly enough (like once a month) and never made the connection until years later.
