The Real Walking Dead

[Dee]

I've never figured out why people like that show (The Walking Dead), but fantasy is turning to reality. I mean really, the only real difference is "body temperature".

While one is fantasy, the other is reality, and more, and more,  folks get the experience of walking through, and among, "The Walking Dead".

Afraid it's going to get a lot worse!

[Dee]

It will get worse. Not only has the government lost its direction, the younger generation has no gumption. Their adrift in video games, self gratification, and dope.

[DDZ]

Its shocking to see videos of inner city streets. drug addicts everywhere. All the while city politicians promote it and make the situation worse.

Don’t let them bite you

I understand that there's new stuff
that narcan won't fix

I saw a short report about some other
stuff that the junkies overseas were
using that literally rots the flesh to
the bone with no cure or medical
treatment
Oh well.  . .

Maybe it will take attrition to clean it up. Not necessarily a bad idea.

All the ones I've ever known
of end up in the same place.
One last year I heard was
rotted away from cancer and
tumors from their recreation

Xylazine.

Being used right here in the USA.

It is called, "Trank". or "Tranq" ( <or something like that)
 & It is a animal tranquilizer that the dealers use to "cut" the narcotics to make it go farther & they can make more money by diluting the narcotics down with the trank/tranq to make it look like it is all real stuff, but it is not.

Article about it from the NYTimes:

Article about it from the DEA:

There is more info out there if folks need to know more for some reason.

IMO, doing stupid stuff has consequences, and doing stupid stuff repeatedly, usually weeds out the stupid & corrects the gene pool.

Solution to the problem: Don't do stupid stuff and thus avoid the consequences.

Well, Nancy is no longer speaker.  Maybe she can use a side hustle.

World War Z. Is it coming to this?

  Historically, most of the great empires of the past, did not collapse from outside attack, but rather from internal rot.

 Only difference today, is that much of the internal rot has been sponsored and aided on by external forces.

A nice refreshing squirt in the morning would put the move on them.

Stopped at the dollar store a day
or so ago, and one of the homeless
hoodrat dopers was wrapped up in
a filthy blanket asleep right in front
of the parking spot. I guess me slamming
the truck door brought him out of
his stupor because he jumped up
with his grimy backpack and hauled
out sans dingy blanket and personal
trash pile
A nice high pressure wash truck
would have fit the bill
