      lol and also see John Mulaney’s latest “Baby J” on the topic of doctors prescribing whatever:

      Paraphrasing - what you do is you go to Yelp and look up doctors in your area. And then you sort by lowest rating and you find the lowest rated doctor. They need your business.

      How do you let someone live so rent free in your head? Nowhere is Musk mentioned in the article and yet you’re making a post about him here? I guess just… why? Don’t you get tired of his antics? Why turn something not about him into something about him?

        Elon Musk is likely the most famous Ketamine user being formerly the richest man on the planet. Can you name any other person that uses Ketamine? I can’t.

          Matthew Perry?

          My take is that questions around why it’s so easy for doctors to hand out prescriptions or why there’s no punishments for over prescribing is a lot more interesting to talk about. Especially with an article like this that opens the door to that.

          But that just doesn’t seem to happen. Like with my original response, unrelated stories end up getting dragged into Elon circle jerk way too often.

            So you can’t either. Thank you for confirming my point.

            My take is that questions around why it’s so easy for doctors to hand out prescriptions or why there’s no punishments for over prescribing is a lot more interesting to talk about. Especially with an article like this that opens the door to that.

            Then why don’t you open that line of conversation instead of complaining about what others choose to talk about?

            But that just doesn’t seem to happen. Like with my original response, unrelated stories end up getting dragged into Elon circle jerk way too often.

            I just had a conversation about the rental costs in Argentina. Musk was nowhere to be found in that. If it was about Ketamine use in Argentina, he might have been. You say Musk is unrelated, but he’s very rich, very famous, and very much an admitted Ketamine user. That’s related.

        …why the choice of words? are you an “antiques” reseller? is it the perfume of varnish, the scent of maple wood? what compels you to talk about antiques completely out of the blue in response to a post about Elon Musk? you don’t have to plug your hobby everywhere man!

        Just joking ofc
