This is crazy
Brigham Buhler says how the family behind OxyContin and one of the richest families in the country built their massive fortune by launching a powerful drug into the marketplace and aggressively expanding it to everyday pain.
"They got the reps to go out and begin to recommend Oxy. So originally Oxy was meant for people who are like terminally ill with cancer and were in severe pain, or somebody who's on the upper echelon of the pain threshold"
"How do you grow the market? Well we're going to grow the patient demographic. We're going to have to grow we need the doctors to write more of this"
"It got to a point where they were literally promoting it for people with migraines... and they were put pumping these pain pills into all these practices"
"The goal is to play this shell game where you when your patent's close to expiring, you have to reapply and extend the patent via a new indication or some sort of new combination of a couple of different products"
"They literally met with the head of the FDA at the time after hours at a hotel... and he helped them draft their application. Then rubber-stamped it and pushed it through and gave OxyContin the golden fucking ticket"
"The problem with that is it's ten times more addictive than hydrocodone"

Marriage made Snoop Dogg.
He says so himself. He’s had one girlfriend his whole life, and she’s been his wife for almost three decades.
He was asked whether marriage still benefits men. He said he wouldn’t be successful, stable or loving without it. She was the foundation, ran the home, and kept him standing when his body and mind couldn’t.
The part worth sitting with is the forgiveness. He made a lot of mistakes back when he “didn’t know how to be a man” and she kept forgiving him.
The “no benefit for men” crowd treats marriage like a contract. He’s describing the thing that turned a boy into a man.

My family is Jamaican, but I'm English😁
It's a "New England."🏴
The slow-motion erosion of English identity is happening right in front of our eyes. A birthright, a culture dismantled piece by piece. 🏴⏳
