Mandatory Cocaine? More likely than you Think!

 Imagine how surprised I was to wake up and find out that alongside Lewis Hamilton cocaine was trending. My first thought was this was another racist attack against Lewis Hamilton by the Verstappen family, who have in the past accused the 10-time world champion of using drugs. What I saw was somehow worse. Worse by quite a significant margin. Elon Musk the CEO of Tesla, Solar City, and other companies, who is currently in the process of buying Twitter, tweeted that he was buying Coca-Cola to put the cocaine back in it. When this drink was first brought to market there was cocaine in it, cocaine was legal at the time.2

Coca-Cola is a popular drink that many people of all ages enjoy, and cocaine is a drug that can lead to addiction and other health problems up to and including death. There have been some studies showing the cocaine can be used in some medicinal fields such as dentistry using it in Soda would do more harm than good.

Billionaires are not smarter than everyone because of their wealth and wanting to put cocaine in a soft drink is another proof of that. The only thing I can really say about this is maybe we should be more concerned about the SEC not getting involved yet in the Twitter acquisition. I am sure he has wanted to put cocaine into a soft drink for a while, the only thing that would stop him is the fact that cocaine remains illegal in the United States and most other parts of the world. This is not as concerning as him trying to buy the public square, but it is still something we should be worried abou

Mariners Red Sox Opening Weekend Series Discussion.

 Thursday was opening day for the Mariners and myself and many other fans were excited to see what the new look Mariners would bring to the ball park. The team had made an effort to offload players prone to striking out over the offseason in order to bring in players that can control the zone, get on base, and put balls in play. All of these things are supposed to help a team score more runs. Luis Castillo was the opening day starter and everyone thought this would be a game where the Mariners would be able to score some runs while the starter didn't need as much support as the team was giving him. This didn't happen.  The Mariners gave up 6 runs to the Red Sox while Castillo struggled with control for the game. He would leave the game with the loss. Seattle would end up scoring 4 runs on 8 hits over the course of the game. Boston scored 6 on 11 hits. With the struggles of the starter this wouldn't be a huge disappointment if not for the amount of strikeouts the offense had...

Introduction Post

    Hi! I am Samantha, I am a trans woman that is in college right now. I have had a very interesting life so far. At 27 I have a decent amount of experience in various areas of life including over a decade of working in experience in various industries. I started working at Sears and most recently have been employed in food service and as an Uber driver.      At the moment I am not an Uber driver because I no longer have a car that is eligible for it. But in a couple of months I will be renting a car and being an Uber driver again. I'll buy a car after saving up for a decent down payment. At the moment I am looking at either the Kia Rio or the Kia K5.      Before the current situation I traveled frequently often leaving my home for a couple of days at a time each month. And once things are a bit safer I will be doing that again.     I love making content for people to view or read. I make tiktok videos and have recently branched out int...
