Everyone has such beautiful FBF contributions this week that I feel a little ashamed of my modest offering. But here it is anyway. Diana and Maggie.
I am holding back a good Mug for Monday however.!

Yep, our society is spiraling down. Out of control! (I despise drugs. Legal or not)
:barnie
I’m not a fan myself, despite living the the pot capital of Canada. Especially of the harder drugs. We are in the midst of a fentanyl overdose crisis.
Makes perfect sense.
Legalizing it has reduced the strain on our justice system somewhat. It also slightly reduced one of the income streams for organized crime, and made offers a safer unadulterated source for users. Honestly I don’t see it as much more damaging than some other legal substances, Alcohol and cigarettes are just as bad. I’ll stick to beer and scotch personally, thanks.

What I would really like to see is more funding and effort from our government towards treating mental health and addiction, rather than just relying on various religious and volunteer organizations to do the actual work on the frontlines trying to help people struggling with these issues. If a fraction of what has been spent on Covid awareness and the huge government subsidies had been directed towards this, we could have almost eliminated the problems with homelessness, addiction, and untreated mental illnesses.

Further tax payment will be coming once this weather passes and my chickens will actually go outside again. 80kmph winds, sub zero (Celsius, I know, we are wimps) temperatures and the related RV boondocking issues with this, don’t ask, you don’t want to know... just accept things are a little more “uncomfortable” here at the moment. Everyone is ok, and we got our truck running again! (Oxygen sensor and fuel filter...)

Oh yes, my sarcasm function is still fully functional. It’s been interesting to watch the evolution of the situation here. Positives and negatives both, and the reactions from different groups in our society.
