This was posted with the caption "Junkies." I'm sure they meant "jinkies" but this is my head cannon on Scooby Doo now based on said typo. Leave the Doctor out that's incidental.
Mystery Inc. are all heroin addicts except Fred who is too stupid from sniffing glue to figure that out. Scooby doesn't say shit, all his human behavior is a group hallucination as are all of the "mysteries."

"This is the best response I have seen to the controversy surrounding the opening of the Olympics. It is by Benjamin Cremer:
Friends, can we think about the alleged Last Supper depiction at the opening ceremony of the Olympics and the outrage it has caused among Christians in our current context for a moment?
First, let me remind you that my desire isn’t to tell you what to think, but my desire is to think with you about this. So I will be asking more questions than anything else.
The Last Supper painting by Leonardo da Vinci is a beautiful and iconic work of art. It is one of the most famous paintings and a quick google search will show you that it is one of the most reinterpreted pieces of art in the world.
Yet, it is not part of the Christian canon as say the Bible is nor is it part of the doctrines of the church. It is a work of art. How then should this reality influence how we see and respond to artistic reinterpretations of it in our world, especially by those whom we don’t know in another country?
More importantly, the Olympic’s own X account said that it wasn't actually a reinterpretation of the Last Supper (which is housed in Italy not France), but “The Feast of the Gods” (1635) by Jan Harmensz van BILJERT.
This painting depicts the Olympian gods celebrating Thetis and Peleus wedding, with Apollo crowned at the center of the table (not Jesus) and Dionysus featured in the foreground.
You can view this painting here: musee-magnin.fr/en/node/19
This makes sense as The Olympics are from Greek culture and tradition. French culture is deeply rooted in feasting and festivity and performing arts.

So that is also an important detail to consider and look into further.
Now let’s take a look at ourselves. How many politicians have used Christianity for the sake of their own political control in our country?
How many politicians have attempted to mandate and legislate Christianity in our country just in the last few months alone, like in Louisiana and Oklahoma? 
How often have we seen the Bible itself draped in the American flag and even sold by a presidential candidate for the sake of political influence?
How many paintings and memes have we seen just this election season alone of Jesus or angels with presidents, tying them together with political power?
How many flags, hats, and t-shirts have we seen that exclaim “Jesus is my savior and ____ is my president!”?
How many pictures of Jesus with a gun have you seen in our country?
What has been the Christian response to these things?
These questions could go on and on, but can you see how our outrage towards people in another country for what we think to be a misuse of Christianity can express a deep lack of awareness of our own misuse of it in our country?
The words from Jesus in Matthew 7:3-5 came to mind this morning as I logged onto social media: “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.” -Matthew 7:3-5 NIV
Again, you are free to feel whatever you do about art. That’s the point of art! But I just think there needs to be a lot less suspicion and offense and a lot more pondering and self reflection in this moment among Christians in the United States about how our faith is being used and misused among ourselves right now."
