Many people look down on destitute drug addicts roaming the streets, but the same people (including the police) seem to have no problem with many celebrities being as bad or worse of drug addicts and openly admitting it.

It is the time for me to start my Anti "AI" (LLM) rants in my comic - and if you want to see where that is headed, a one time kofi support will get you to see all my my bi-weekly sketches before the finished work drops in the following Friday (most of the time). (:

Of all the harmful consumable substances I have come across, the one whose consumption most puzzles me is cannabis. It is toxic, yet people attempt to consume it once, and then repeatedly.
I have seen people whose lives have been ruined by it, and I have no pity for them, especially those who belong to my generation. None of them has any justification for getting hooked and destroying themselves.

After 2 months, Microsoft still hasn't found the person inside Microsoft who made "getting people addicted to AI" a business goal. Maybe Copilot can help them. (or looking at the very top of their own org chart)

OPIATE OVERDOSE, AN OPEN VERDICT AND WITHHELD INQUEST RECORDS: WHY WAS THE DEATH OF CATHRYN LOUISE SMITH NOT INVESTIGATED AS A POTENTIAL UNLAWFUL KILLING?
Medical records show that Cathryn Louise Smith had documented adverse reactions to dihydrocodeine, including a rash. Despite those warnings, dihydrocodeine was subsequently listed as a repeat prescription, alongside Zomorph modified-release morphine. Cathryn later died from an overdose of opiates, and the inquest returned an open verdict.
The underlying toxicology, post-mortem evidence, prescribing records and complete inquest file have not been provided to her partner, Martin Newbold. He has instead been told that he is not recognised as an interested person.
These circumstances do not permit the public simply to conclude that nothing criminal occurred. They require an independent homicide assessment, preservation of all records and disclosure of the evidence needed to establish precisely which substances caused Cathryn’s death, how she obtained them, who prescribed or supplied them, and whether another person’s actions or failures caused or contributed to her death.
I am therefore asking every MP subscribed to this system I am asking you to examine and formally refer the evidence concerning the death of Cathryn Louise Smith.
Her medical history records adverse reactions to dihydrocodeine, including a rash. The same records later show further prescribing of dihydrocodeine and modified-release morphine. Cathryn subsequently died from an overdose of opiates, and the inquest returned an open verdict.
The complete toxicology, post-mortem and inquest evidence has not been disclosed to me, despite Cathryn being my partner and the mother of my daughter.
For murder in England and Wales, there must be evidence that someone unlawfully caused the death with intent to kill or cause grievous bodily harm. https://www.cps.gov.uk/…/homicide-murder-manslaughter… If a person knowingly prescribed or administered a drug despite a documented allergy, and medical evidence proved that it caused the death, that could support an investigation into unlawful killing.
“The coroner informed my mum that Catherine had 7% alcohol in her body, along with benzodiazepine/diazepam. Taken together, these substances can cause heavy sedation, unconsciousness, breathing suppression, or death.”
Catherine’s medical record documented an adverse reaction to dihydrocodeine, including a rash, in 2007. Despite this, dihydrocodeine was subsequently listed as a repeat prescription in May 2009, alongside Zomorph, a morphine-based opiate, prescribed in April 2009. Her death certificate later recorded her cause of death as an overdose of opiates. This apparent contradiction requires investigation of the prescribing decisions, dispensing records, warnings available to clinicians and the substances identified at post-mortem.
The record says “adverse reaction”, rather than proving a life-threatening allergy. It does not, by itself, establish murder, but it does provide documentary grounds for questioning why dihydrocodeine was prescribed again after the recorded reaction and how the opiate prescriptions related to her death.
Without evidence of intent, a death caused by grossly dangerous medical conduct could amount to gross-negligence manslaughter. However, if a member of the opposing party in the Family Court proceedings deliberately planned and caused her death, intending to kill her or cause serious harm, that would be a premeditated murder.
The record shows that Catherine/Cathryn had two documented adverse reactions to dihydrocodeine, including a rash, yet dihydrocodeine was later issued again as a repeat prescription. She was also prescribed modified-release morphine and later died from an overdose of opiates.
2011-03-22 – Emilys Mums Death Certificate – overdose of opiates.pdf
That is evidence of a potentially unlawful killing that required a proper criminal and prescribing investigation.
But these pages alone do not prove murder, because they do not show who supplied or administered the fatal dose or that anyone intended to kill her or cause serious harm. Without that intent, a death caused by grossly dangerous medical conduct would more likely fall under gross-negligence manslaughter, or murder. If it is connected to premediated event in Family court.
The interim certificate dated 16 July 2010 recorded the medical cause of death as “Unascertainable.” The final certificate subsequently recorded “Overdose of opiates,” with an open verdict. The toxicology, post-mortem evidence and complete inquest records have not been disclosed to her partner.
What precise document was restricted, who ordered the restriction, on what date, under which legal authority, for how long, and did the restricted material include the post-mortem report, toxicology results, prescription and dispensing records, witness evidence or the coroner’s notes?

It is considered a certainty that #quantum computers will crack all currently known encryption techniques in no time at all.
Once #AI runs on them—AI trained by human #greed and a #addiction for control, having learned that #security is an accepted pretext for establishing total #surveillance—the worst #dystopias will become reality. Hopefully, the cheers of all the proponents will then stick in their throats.
But go ahead and celebrate your #convenience; indulge in the #laziness of not having to learn anything new, while you exploit the knowledge and skills of those who studied and trained for years—only to be ruthlessly robbed. Your disrespect and stupidity disgust me!

"Let them burn their house down” hypothesis.
With the colossal incompetence of Trump and the stupidity of the ongoing US war crime in Iran which has caused significant economic and humanitarian impact on the world, I’ve had a lingering question.
“Why hasn’t China, the EU, and other countries acted to block the US actions in Iran?”
And it finally dawned on me. They’re doing what I’ve been saying that we in the US need to do. Let our child drug addict (the US) wallow around at the bottom of the barrel to finally break our addiction to Trump, the Republican Party, and stupidity in general.
The world is letting the US burn down its house. Destroy its reputation. Alienate its friends and allies. Wreck its economy. And severely damage its own people’s lives. All the while the world is realizing that they are much better off less dependent on an unreliable and abusive US partner.
The US has had it coming for a long time.

J'ai un vrai problème avec mon téléphone.
Un moment de blanc en terrasse avec des amis ? Je sors mon téléphone et je commence à scroller.
Un moment calme avec ma compagne ? Même réflexe.
De l'extérieur, ça peut passer pour de l'impolitesse, mais je me rends compte que c'est devenu un automatisme difficile à contrôler.
Ces applications sont conçues pour capter notre attention, et je me fais régulièrement happer.
J'ai commencé à chercher des solutions.(1/5)

Anyone else thinking of drastically reducing smartphone usage?
My 1st step: leaving my phone at my office when I leave for the day.
*I do have an Apple watch, and will be adding cellular to it for calls, etc.
So far, I've notice many mental "wants" towards picking up my phone. I can "feel" the need and to be honest, is currently hard to deal with.

You've never met yourself at your current age, but 1 year sober. You can be so much better... but you need to reclaim yourself first. It's like slowly becoming awake, snapping out of constant, generational narcosis. 3/3
-
Because I see my life after the addiction, and I am yet to take it from there. But every time I go through this cycle, my life slowly begins to improve. And the connection with whatever's out there (God, cosmic intelligence, The Universe) becomes stonger and clearer. I'm not religious, btw. And I begin to need less, which honestly feels like "freedom." If you're on the fence about quitting something or even becoming "straight edge," go for it. 2/3
-
It's an uncomfortable truth that people would rather ruin their lives than face the truth of their life (which at this time will be uncomfortable). That seems the paradox of addiction. And I'm not talking "heroin." Weed, video games, netflix, PMO, recreational eating, and so on. Every time I quit an addiction, it's as if I peel-off a layer and I see my life more clearly. And at this point in time, it's usually a bit disappointing to see. 1/3
