Finally caught up on Severance

...and I haven't dived into what I assume is a copious backlog of tumblr posts about it, but I do want to say--

In the mid-1800's, around the time that ether was being taken up as a surgical anesthetic (and Kier Egan was being born, in-universe), the term for recreational use of ether was called an ether frolic.

This goes a long way toward explaining why the one of the "Four Tempers" that seems like it should be positive, comes off just as creepy as the rest.

The tempers aren't, "Sad, afraid, angry, having fun," they're "Sad, afraid, angry, tripping balls."

#severance #as a side note #I kind of wonder whether opioids exist in the Severance world #or if ether and ether derivatives occupy that niche #*opium* must exist #since that's been known for millennia #as both a therapeutic drug and a drug of abuse #but derivatives like morphine codeine and heroin were developed in the 1800's #around the time that Kier was supposed to be working in that ether factory #ironically these derivatives--one might even say *refinements*--of opium were attempts to make it safer and less addictive #Anyway in our world ether was largely superseded for both medical and recreational use by the turn of the 20th century #It is still used & manufactured as an industrial solvent #but with Lumon seeming to be mainly a pharmaceutical company #it seems a little odd that the factory in Cobel's hometown closed so recently #but I suppose they could be a chemical company that includes pharmaceuticals #like Dupont

I can share one hater opinion because it's about 20 year old fic, but for some reason people loved to take Lex's ambiguously misspent youth pre-Smallville and make him a recreational heroin user. RECREATIONAL HEROIN? DURING THE GOLDEN AGE OF SKETCHY MYSTERY PILLS?

#and he's RICH #if he wanted opioids he could get them from A DOCTOR #HEROIN AS A CLUB DRUG????

Big Pharma and the Opioid Epidemic: From Vicodin to Heroin

Big Pharma and the Opioid Epidemic: From Vicodin to Heroin

More than 130 people a day in the U.S. die from opioid overdoses. Addiction to legal and illegal opioids has been declared a national crisis.

The U.S. spends about $78.5 billion a year on treatment, criminal prosecution, and health care related to the crisis. What caused this massive problem? Can the crisis be slowed or reversed?

Students will get practical tips on how to help someone suffering from an addiction or experiencing an overdose, and learn about how the nation is trying to deal with the crisis.

I don't know entirely how to explain this, but I think an important part of healing from religious trauma is learning about substance use disorders and shifting your views on drugs to neutral

#I'm not gonna act like I'm exempt from biases #I still get nervous drinking or being around people that are drunk #I still get paranoid using my medical marijuana #but I genuinely think viewing drugs as neutral is the first step (no pun intended) to recovering #The flavor of christianity I was raised with focused on joy. You were supposed to say you're joyful no matter what because ur alive #Anger. Sadness. Grief. Disgust. All of these were brought into the world when Adam and Eve fell from grace #Sex. Drugs. and Rock and Roll are seen as the epitome of hedonism and self-serving pleasure #Sex and Rock and Roll are talked about p often. Maybe not R&R specifically but the concept of secular music #We talk about purity culture and indoctrination and isolation and so on and so forth. But drugs are different. Drugs are Still Bad #When I say shift drugs to neutral sure I mean having a beer with the boys or smoking a lil pot to relax #but I also mean people doing heroin and cocaine and fentanyl and narcotics and opioids and #Drugs are a substance that alters your body or mind in some way. That's it. That's all there is to it. It's not good or bad it just is #They can cause harm. I know that. But so can literally anything #I'm learning about substance use disorder as part of my clinical psychology track but I was already a harm reduction activist before that #It's uncomfortable seeing the way people. even people in a psychopathology class. talk about addiction. it's not a disorder to them #it's a moral failure. A weak will. A slip up. A mistake that ruined their life and not a substance a person used to alter their situation #To help you get comfortable feeling joy again after leaving xtianity you have to view substances as neutral. You can't see your own pleasure #as a neutral one where you're simply changing your situation if it feels like things are good and bad. And if drugs aren't good or bad #then maybe you aren't either. maybe you just are #idk if that made sense I just got my flu and covid shot and I'm slightly feverish but yea. drugs! I like weed it's good be safe #ex christian #religious trauma

Edgy longing/lovelorn poem from three years ago (Nov. 10, 2020) ayeeee

The Fool

What nerve you have!

To long after he

That drinks the joy of a thousand poppies

While you offer but your heart,

A joy in which he must open not his veins,

But his mind to understand.

every single doctor responsible for contributing to the opioid epidemic, every doctor who ignored patient’s symptoms, every doctor who has done more harm than good all need to be sent to the gulag. And I’m not kidding about this because there is a crisis in this country regarding the trust of the medical system because of their bullshit.

#I would know because I work with someone whose parents fell into heroin addiction due to over prescribed opioids #He doesn’t trust modern medicine to a point that is disturbing

Two months clean.

Paws is a mother fucker.

I think I’m having like flashbacks or something. Just super intense memories at random times. Something will trigger a memory and then I replay it in my head.

This shit is weird.

people are who they are and matty’s always been a little wild and unstable. he may be trying to be “good” for taylor now but it’s not going to last. his true nature will out. it’s not good for anyone to smother their true selves anyway to try to be someone they’re not. it’ll just make them resentful

So basically your belief system is "people will never change"? I have a great therapist to help you question that a bit lol

#people evolve #and people change #we all have the choice every day who we want to be and how we want to show up #matty is clean for years after being a heroine addict for 4 year #do you know how hard that is???#I have a brother who's an opioid addict and it's the hardest thing on this planet #give him some fucking respect for how far he's come
