atit will never stop being funny to me that the most powerful and unpleasant psychedelic drug on earth was briefly legal and being sold in gas stations, and high school kids were lining up to have the worst five minutes of their lives. pic.twitter.com/iExENldC8l

And it was a trip…
I ended up coming out of the trip before I had completed the loop back into our dimension and thus lost a part of my soul in the frigid wastes of the winter dimension. I did not feel normal for months.

I smoked salvia out of a hello kitty bong at 11pm on a Saturday in the back of a graveyard in Dundalk Maryland. Needless to say that was a mistake

‘There should be a reassessment as to how the objectives that are behind this can be realised in a better and more transparent way’ Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD says the appointment of Dr Tony Holohan to a role in TCD should be paused pending a report | https://t.co/bWyGeVlsaz pic.twitter.com/jHmG6b1DM2

This morning.
Via RTE news:
“There has to be transparency…in my view it should be paused, there has to be a reassessment as to how the objectives behind this can be realised,” the Taoiseach said.
Secretary General at the Department of Health Robert Watt is now compiling a report on the secondment and this is expected to be completed by Monday.
The Taoiseach said he had not commented until now on the matter because he had not received all the details “behind it.”
He said that he would like see the report on Monday but it would make sense to him to have the issue reassessed.
Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly said earlier this week that he did not sign off on the secondment of Dr Holohan to TCD, but said he fully supports it.

There’s one thing that you shouldn’t do

This afternoon.
China warned it would take strong measures if US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi visits Taiwan following media reports she would go next week.
Via Reuters:
China considers democratically ruled Taiwan its own territory and the subject is a constant source of friction between Beijing and Washington, especially given strong U.S. military and political support for the island.
The possible visit has not been confirmed by Pelosi’s office or Taiwan’s government, but some Japanese and Taiwanese media reported it would take place after she visits Japan this weekend.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian told reporters that Beijing firmly opposed all forms of official interactions between the United States and Taiwan, and Washington should cancel the trip.
