I went on Vyvanse, a slow release amphetamine, and 2 weeks later had a heart attack. I'm pretty sure it was related because I'd taken dexies about 10 years before and stopped after a month due to chest pains, and also the first day I was on Vyvanse I got chest pains again, but the doctor said it was fine so I kept taking them.

I genuinely do think it's a great way to bring people together and give people a sense of common purpose, like a rallying cry or something. Sure the symbol might not be perfect, but it's better than nothing!

I agree with your sentiment, but calling people morons isn't going to win anybody over to your side

I would but I don't have a youtube account

I know a lot of homeless people where I'm from suffer from mental illness and drug addiction, and a small subset of them are probably violent. I'm not sure how that makes them unworthy of help though? But regardless of empathy and compassion, wouldn't society be better off if we provided mental health care and helped them get over their addiction? They could even become functioning members of society!

Maybe, but chances are it'll get taken down in the next few days

I used wind scribe for a few years for torrenting on my phone andpc and never had any trouble. Once I forgot to turn on the vpn while downloading a movie on my phone at work (using the companywifi 🤦) and got an email from IT saying they'd gotten a warning and not to do it again 🤣😬

They do have a firewall option to prevent scenarios like that
