      I think that's right @Oaktavia –the adrenochrome thing in F&L in LV was a IMO nothing but a great device to underscore the macabre side of many illicit mind-altering substances (or more precisely, the organizations behind manufacture and distribution of such) ... As John Perry Barlow put it "shipping powders back and forth. black goes south and white goes north." The shadow markets that prohibition creates (or at least exacerbates) make for a lot of human suffering and the rise of ruthless cartels unbeholden to regulators or law enforcement. The adrenochrome thing about it (falsely) having to be harvested from living humans took that darkness and amplified it even further. FWIW, adrenochrome is just oxidized adrenaline--you can create it in a lab. And it will get you high, but it is the opposite of a life-prolonging substance.

      Despite the adrenochrome shit as far as Q's story is concern being clearly false, there are very real things going on with human trafficking and harvesting organs from sometimes living human beings. This Q bullshit introduces a bunch of confusion on what is actually going on and who is actually responsible for it. That makes it much harder to stop it, and much easier to make bad decisions on bad intel, and that's why it pisses me off.

      If believing in obviously false and easily falsifiable fictions is a "great awakening," you can call me Rip van Winkle 😃

      Think it, be it.

                  I’d Highly recommend reading Hells Angel…The Life and Times of Sonny Barger.

                      The wind is still strong in Portsmouth. Today while cycling home I was hit hard by a gust of wind that knocked me off balance enough to have to bail and lay the bike down. The impact twisted the seat around, bent my pedal, and tore off bar tape. Got home and found road rash scrapes on hip, ankle, and elbow that were a little bloody. The whipcord on my N1 has a tiny scuff mark on the elbow that I could barely find, and my 21oz jeans look no different at all. Glad I had clothes on that can take a bit of a beating, might have been worse without them.

                                😃 I think I THINK my explanation looks all rational and scientific like that, but in the eye of the beholder it's more like Charlie Kelly spewing conspiracy theories about Pepe Silvia:

                                Think it, be it.

                                    It's like, and  I should distil (and sell) the look Haraki gives me when I ask him a question, that he thinks so far beneath him, to even waste one brain cell thinking of a response….

We’re starting to get a reputation and not a good one.  ::) All’s well that ends well and as I often say...we’re trying our best.
