    Also, who in NYC actually calls it “Downtown”? It’s The Financial District, Tribeca, Greenwich Village, Chinatown, or whatever.

    Probably a lie.

      The prices are fucking ridiculous

      Example: caffeine pills at one near me are legit triple the price of what they are at a grocery store

      But they know I’m poor and live in a car-based hellscape and can barely afford to drive that far

    The locked-up shelves I’m concerned about are the ones inside the pharmacy area, they should just put those out and let us help ourselves

    Half those pharmacist and pharmacy tech mfs don’t believe in covid anyway

    Anyway this is why amphetamine should be over-the-counter:

    First off, there’s no way these ghouls go out in public and do errands unless it’s a photo op and in a place with a private army of security.

    Second off, I HATE this narrative that conservatives love to push that the cities are all war zones with no supplies where everyone is a drug addict. I wonder if this narrative has anything to do with the fact that musk wants to build a giant seasteded company town in Texas and that he has to manufacture the consent to make it seem better than living in SF or NY thonk

    I went to the drug store in China a while back, and they not only had exactly what I was looking for, full shelves, and kind helpful staff that knew both western and Chinese medicine, they had them on nearly every corner in every city I went to. Guess that just means only western society is doomed by this metric. I can live with that.

    When I escaped the anglosphere and they didn’t have some of the stuff on the menu I found it quite refreshing. Like fuck yeah, give me whatever’s fresh or whatever you want out of your inventory fried and put over rice. Not having antibiotics or something would be grim, but if they only have the wrong shampoo then I think we can all go fuck ourselves more often.

      We’re ruled over by a Montana Max tier immature rich boy in his fifties named Muuuuuusk and his former broodmare was named Griiiiimes. We already live in a cartoon.
