I think the (well-ish read)anarchist's response to the insulin bit(or the trains bit, random prison guy aside) is something along the lines of "especially outside of the bounds of profit, what is the meaningful difference between a group of people coming together and organizing their labor to provide a good or a service and a group of people coming together and organizing their labor to provide a good or a service with the vestiges of the state"

Specifically while keeping in mind the idea that collective action and organization is the base metric of society and one that would happen regardless, with varying levels of coercion and control depending on the driving forces. Administration need not be functional capitalists need not be rulership innit?

I think a lot of people who say they're anarchists like. Don't actually read their theory or even really poke it beyond the basics and come away with wildly misguided conclusions and a woeful inability to argue for it.

-anon who finds anarchist philosophy to be incredibly useful as a lens to view and analyze the world through but would call themselves "more of an ML than an anarchist for the sake of practicality" if pressed to say anything at all

sure! i mean if you read state & revolution there is a lot of detail given (drawing examples from the paris commune) on how administrative tasks can be democratized and distributed, diluted of their political character bit by bit until the abolition of class and the ensuing withering of the state

but that administration is vitally important! there is a massive difference between the hobbyist pharmacist gang 'coming together' to 'make some insulin' with no more specific goal or direction other than 'goodwill and solidarity' and a formal, organized medical system capable of training pharmacists, issuing orders for insulin and then distributing that insulin, that is meaningfully accountable should it fail to do any of these things!

i am enormously sympathetic to the idea that socialism will allow people to find pleasure and fulfillment in working, that much of the old systems of coercion will become unecessary quickly, that people are generally disposed to labour for the social good--but tendencies and general dispositions are not good enough to guarantee the lives of millions--only actual organization is, bottom-up organization certainly, organization by a central body consisting of workers elected by workers and accountable to workers certainly, but nevertheless organization of and yes, bodies with authority over production and distribution.

Writing Notes: Moral Development

The cultural-developmental approach to moral psychology suggests 3 vital trajectories in moral development stages (Jensen, 2015):

Autonomy - Emphasizing individuality; focusing on the self, including self-interest, rights, and wellbeing

Community - Focusing on memberships and relationships within social groups, including duties to others and their welfare and adherence to group norms and customs

Divinity - Focusing on the spiritual or religious dimensions or moral reasoning, including the sacredness of moral codes

Together, they form an important framework for understanding how we reason about moral issues from various perspectives. They balance personal, social, and spiritual values while emphasizing purity, sanctity, and spiritual accountability (Jensen, 2015).

Moral development and behavior involve putting ourselves in the place of others and typically require a combination of mutual respect, empathy, and caring (Gibbs, 2019).

Moral judgment begins to form in the early years, taking place in a social context, driven by interactions with peers and adults involving “taking turns, sharing, harming, and responding to harm” (Haidt, 2001, p. 817).

Kohlberg’s Stages of Moral Development

Lawrence Kohlberg’s (2015) theory of stages of moral development has dominated research in moral development for several decades (Gross, 2020).

Kohlberg assessed individuals’ moral reasoning through the lens of moral dilemmas.

Subjects were asked to choose between two or more alternative reactions or responses.

Kohlberg (2015) suggests 6 qualitatively different stages of moral development across the following 3 levels of moral reasoning (Gross, 2020):

Level 1: Preconventional morality

External consequences shape moral reasoning.

Stage 1 (punishment and obedience orientation) – What is punishable determines what’s right and wrong. As such, being moral means avoiding punishment.

Stage 2 (instrumental relativist orientation) – What people want and are rewarded for determines right and wrong. Other people’s needs matter, but only in a reciprocal sense.

Level 2: Conventional morality

Moral reasoning is influenced by our strong need to adhere to rules and authority.

Stage 3 (interpersonal concordance or “good boy-nice girl” orientation) – Being moral is determined by what pleases and helps other people — and ultimately what the majority thinks.

Stage 4 (maintaining the social order orientation) – It is our duty to respect authority and maintain social order. As such, this is more important than the needs of our family and loved ones.

Level 3: Post-conventional morality

Moral reasoning is determined by abstract reasoning.

Stage 5 (social contract–legalistic orientation) – While laws are established based on mutual agreement, they can be changed democratically or, at times, overridden. Life is more sacred than the legal principle.

Stage 6 (universal ethical principles orientation) – As society’s rules are arbitrary, our own conscience is the ultimate judge of what is right and wrong. As such, they can be broken when they conflict with “universal” principles.

The Methodology

The now famous Heinz dilemma created by Kohlberg involves an imaginary scenario where a man called Heinz can only save the life of his wife dying from cancer by getting his hands on a drug sold by a local, greedy pharmacist (Gross, 2020).

Despite all attempts, the husband can’t get all the money needed to buy the drug, so he considers breaking into the pharmacy to save his wife’s life.

Having explained the dilemma to study participants, Kohlberg asked them a series of questions, including (Gross, 2020):

Should the husband steal the drug? Why or why not?

If he doesn’t steal the drug, does he truly love his wife? What should he do then?

What if the person dying wasn’t his wife, but a stranger? What should he do?

How important is it for people to do all they can for the life of another?

Should people do everything they can to obey the law?

Criticism of Kohlberg’s Theory

Researchers have identified and expressed several criticisms of Kohlberg’s theory and stages of moral development (Gross, 2020; Gibbs, 2019).

Young children’s understanding of moral regulation is more complex than Kohlberg’s stage 1 (typically seen as 9 years old and below), which relies upon punishment and obedience.

Children do not typically experience the issues raised by Kohlberg’s dilemmas during their moral development. In fact, while their reasoning can be highly complex, it is often unclear and messy.

Some theorists argue that, as Kohlberg relied on an all-male sample in his research, the theory and stages described are biased toward men. As such, there are conflicting views regarding the suggestion that boys are biased toward preferring a “justice orientation” rather than a “care orientation” (with girls showing the opposite), as when pressed, they can switch between the two.

Education is a frequently ignored and confounding factor. While college-educated individuals are not morally superior, they may be more verbally sophisticated, influencing the moral stages to which they are attributed.

pharmacy lore goes crazy (thank you @wabatle for drawing the hospital >_<)

welcome to the first ever pharmacy! we only give out vitamin ena and nothing else. inbox is open!!

pharmacity map is currently closed due to me being very busy, personal issues, and executive disfunction. sorry for the inconvenience 3:

commonly asked questions

what does vitamin ena do for the body? -> keeps the heart pumping blood and blood pumping to the heart. no vitamin ena no heartbeat, just death.

what happens if you miss a day? -> you die (/joke you can always recover with more vitamins but yeah you do die so be dramatic in the inbox)

what happens if the PHARMACIST misses a day? -> more lawsuits! bad news for me.

can you take different vitamins or supplements while taking vitamin ena? -> many vitamins that are running in the pjsekai pharmacy community do not give the same affects as vitamin ena, they are safe to take at the same time.

can you take more than one vitamin ena at a time? -> NO. too much blood goes to your body and you explode. it is okay to catch up on days though, and if you have a doctor’s note that you submit in the inbox i will let you.

important!! policy on shipping

with the addition of our first ship pharmacy (akikasa pharm) i want lots of my followers to understand my policy on ships.

i want you guys to respect the pairings that people ship (unless it’s illegal or a proship or incest obviously) and i would really prefer arguments and conflict over ships not to happen at this pharmacy. i don’t have a huge otp, and with a cast as big as prosekai i understand lots of pairings and why they’re shipped.

i don’t want these pharmacies to start having wars with each other!!! we’re bound together in culthood that should remain unbroken (/joke about the cult thing, but i really am enjoying this community.) thank you everyone!!

[waitmyturtles]

The wonderful @clairedaring noted in the comments of my post yesterday about yesterday's Spare Me Your Mercy (episode 2) that the original source material for the show consisted of two Thai Y books that have been condensed into eight episodes within a script.

That very much explains the pacing issues I saw in yesterday's episode, as I noted in my previous post, and further explains what, in part, I felt happened in today's episode 3. This episode was better than yesterday's, but was ::waves index fingers in circles:: A LOT.

Kan and Wasan/Thiu/Tew (I missed his chue len yesterday, thanks iQ) clearly have a history; they clearly were okay with sharing a tent and flirting, and after a night ::AIR QUOTES:: sleeping next to a lush stream, they're boyfs. Ding-dong, okay! Get 'er done.

So there's that; then, rewinding, there's Wasan/Thiu/Tew still not picking up on what he dropped by way of switching seats in the car and allowing nurse Orn to have the meds on her lap while they were driving to the mountain village. Plus, that wild interrogation scene with baby-orphan-turned-playboy-cum-pharmacist (SORRY NOT SORRY) Boss, who, what, whoa, wow, that's a hell of a storyline with the director that came fast (SORRY NOT SORRY). I love how that police officer KNOCKED ON THE DOOR OF THE BATHROOM to try to retrieve his witness/suspect ("Oh, hey! You in there?!"). The show's doing a REAL good job making the police look like bumbling dillholes (ACAB).

Making nurse Orn look CRAZY sus, then sympathetic as she's tending to her fellow villagers, then turning her into the curious and supportive auntie of the boyfriends. Damn!

And this whole night scene where the director's calling both Kan and Wasan/Thiu/Tew to come thru. And the preview indicates more wild stuff brewing, from the director getting kidnapped to Kan and Wasan/Thiu/Tew continuing to flirt while Kan has a literal oozing head wound.

Like I said yesterday, Manner of Death and Triage (SMYM's trilogy-mates) did also start out crazytown. But we had a grip on the material from the start -- we had theories and suspicions in MoD that were toyed and played around with fully, and in Triage, the loops almost immediately began gaining more context without us wondering too much about what was going on. The material of these two previous shows didn't feel as out of order or thrown together as it has felt this week with SMYM's episodes two and three.

The story of SMYM itself has actually gotten interesting. I love what Sammon's stories do with directors and accomplices; Dr. Sak and Dr. Doi from Triage were oozingly and appealingly evil from beginning to end, totally committed to their snakelike work. In SMYM, we now have our noses trained on nurse Orn and the suspicious forensic pathologist, along with the director, Boss, and Kan himself.

But it does still feel like the show and the series are rushing. We're now in a relationship (.... I think, at least nurse Orn used the word "serious," so.). Yesterday, we got an indication of history, and then we get a relationship after a seatbelt trope and a night of camping.

Maybe this show is figuring out what exactly to build on, and it's like the script doesn't exactly know how to prioritize its time. SMYM still has my attention -- it's clearly going to be a gripping story next week -- but I think what's happening that's confusing me by pace is that the show itself is playing a tug-of-war on its commitment to one or another bit. MoD and Triage were great STORIES that wove romance well into their scripts by way of earned paths of building context. We've skipped a lot of those steps this week with SMYM.

I bought a two-day ticket to the convention to find out how the movement is prepping American college students for the next wave of anti-Israel protests.

The convention’s programming for college kids is called “Campus Activism Track,” and included sessions on the following:

“Make Your Campus Palestinian,” which taught how to “amplify the voices of Palestinian students and communities” on college campuses. Former student activists, including from Chicago’s DePaul and Loyola universities, shared strategies for how to “oppose anti-Palestinianism.”

A “Know Your Rights” session featured Rifqa Falaneh, a fellow at Palestine Legal who specializes in defending student protesters. Falaneh previously headed DePaul’s chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine, the widely banned campus group that receives financial support from AMP. Also there: Youssef Hasweh, a former University of Chicago student whose degree was initially withheld after he became a prominent participant in his school’s encampment last spring.

“Bringing Activism to Professionalism,” in which students heard speakers describe “how they integrated Palestinian activism into their craft.” Guests included Ashraf Al-Mashharawi, a producer with credits at Al Jazeera as well as a pharmacist, a software engineer, and an English teacher at a nearby public school.

In a session called “In Front of the Lens,” speakers taught college students how to write a press release and handle “tricky questions” from reporters on whether they “support terrorism.” A girl with a keffiyeh covering her head took a stab at answering that question, telling the crowd, “I would say, ‘No, I do not support terrorism,’ and then I would go over the things that Israel does—I would say, ‘I do not support the eviction of innocent Palestinians, I do not support the shooting of Palestinian children.’ ”

She continued: “You don’t want them to put you on the defensive. You have to put them on the defensive.” The student attendees, who were enrolled at Saint Xavier University, DePaul University, Loyola University, and other Midwest colleges, nodded in agreement.A memorial poster for Hind Rajab, who died during Israel’s invasion of Gaza this year. (Olivia Reingold for The Free Press)

Meanwhile, in a plenary session entitled “Criminalizing Palestine Solidarity: The Age of the New McCarthyism,” Falaneh thanked the young activists in the crowd for their role in pushing the pro-Palestine movement forward.

🌌Mid-Autumn Festival

🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕

Image from ilikedyourablogithere

It's been a while since I made a "Review post". This my first actual "Review".

In this upcoming update, I can see there are a number of things that are associated with the Mid-Autumn Festival, especially with the new Esper, Emma.

For this review, I am not going to go into depth about the myths associated with Mid-Autumn Festival because: 1. People always talk about Chang er's story to the point I feel like beating a dead horse.

2. I just think it would be more interesting to do a "Review" about my own 2 cents instead of retelling the same old story.

I was in for a surprise when I saw her design. I immediately knew the dev team are preparing for a Mid-Autumn update. This year's Mid-Autumn would be a little different. This is due to the date falling so close to China's National Day on 1st of October. Thus, a longer holiday. The more reason to enjoy the festivity of Mid-Autumn.

Image from the Dislyte Wiki

First of all, I was not expecting Emma to be a fully transformed animal Esper, like Trevor. So this is a really nice surprise.

I was begining to find Dislyte suffering from a similar design pattern of Bi-shouen/Bi-Shoujo designs, like the other mobile game, Onmyoji.

And, I think, the charm about Dislyte is their character designs uses a more western design approach to create characters while still having traces of influence from the dev's lens.((I am not saying which approach is better, be it western, Anime, or indie, they are all wonderful in their own ways. And, I am not here to create animosity. If you find my opinion not suited to your taste, tough.))

Emma's design reminds me of a Moon cake box for some reason. Nowadays, Moon cake boxes are designed and packaged lavishly, as if they are some sort of artwork of their own.

This, for one, attracts more young people to purchase moon cakes, paired with all the other modern and wacky flavours developed over the years. Two, it makes a perfect gift for friends and family.

The details of her wearing an astronaut suit, is really fun and cute, and I think it is a clever way to convey the Jade Rabbit's assosiation to the moon. I can see how Emma's design can be seen as one of a possible design on a Moon cake box.

I like how they gave her a pestle and mortar, in reference to the role of the Jade rabbits; often seen as pharmacist. Not the mention, the eye brows!

Her eyebrows stood out to me, because of how whimsical it is. I am guessing it is to reference how some mythical beasts have strange looking eyebrows or marks on their forehead. (I am sure Fushi got some wack eyebrows too.)

Honestly, I can't wait to see how she plays out in the gameplay, and her adventures with Ethan.

Image from the Dislyte Wiki

As for Heng Yue, I wasn't expecting to get her new skin for free. But it's Mid-Autumn, so... *shrugs*

To me, her new skin design, it got a nice colour scheme going on, but I feel as though, the dev team could do a little bit more than to simply give Heng Yue the typical Chang er design.

I understand that, Heng Yue's original design is somewhat in reference to the Hanfu boom in China; the trend where people uses Hanfu cuttings to design trendy and modern clothing.

This is just a personal preference, but I think if the devs could give the Chang er look with a refreshing modern edge, I think Heng Yue would look really cool and it fits more into the hip hop scene of Dislyte. I also think if the dev could add a Mid-Autumn special SFX effects in her in gameplay, that would be cool, and really complete the skin package.

As for the feature event, I unfortunately haven't picked it up since Javid, so I couldn't really make a comment or review about that.

Overall, I am looking forward to the upcoming patch, see what Mid-Autumn has installed for us.

DONALD SULLIVAN RPH, PHD., vs. GERALD R. KILEY: THE SUBTERFUGE

THE CONGRESS MUST INVESTIGATE AND DEFUND THE UNITED STATES DRUG ENFORCEMENT AGENCY (DEA) VICE NEWS AUGUST 11, 2020 MANISHA KRISHNAN According to sociology professor Alex S. Vitale is unambiguous in his assessment of the Drug Enforcement Administration and its stated mission of reducing drug trafficking in the United States: “They have been a 100 percent failure by any measure you can think of.” Vitale, coordinator of the Policing and Social Justice Project at Brooklyn College and the author of The End of Policing, said the DEA hasn’t saved any lives, nor has it made drugs less available. (8) THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION (AMA) JUNE 16, 2020, “The nation no longer has a prescription opioid-driven epidemic. However, we are now facing an unprecedented, multi-factorial, and much more dangerous overdose and the drug epidemic is driven by heroin and illicitly manufactured fentanyl, fentanyl analogs, and stimulants. We can no longer afford to view increasing drug-related mortality through a prescription opioid-myopic lens. This is why the AMA continues its aggressive advocacy efforts in support of patients with pain and those with a substance use disorder as well as broad support for harm reduction policies and practices that address the wide range of factors affecting patients. “ DONALD SULLIVAN RPH., PHD., AND THE FOLSON AMICUS BRIEF “STORY BEHIND THE ECONOMIC LYNCHING OF BLACK OWNED PHARMACY BUSINESSES BY THE DRUG ENFORCEMENT AGENCY (DEA) IN AMERICA HOW THIS DANGEROUS DECISION BASED UPON BIAS EFFECTS ALL HEALTHCARE (ESPECIALLY BLACK PROFESSIONALS IN AMERICA)“ by Jack Folson MAY 5, 2020 DEA destroyed the data in the Pronto Pharmacy computer these codes, which are no more than 6 characters spread out over 3 different fields cannot be presented. The malfeasance of the DEA could be considered contributory negligence in this case. Other places that such documentation could be found are on the front or back of the original prescriptions. Not to mention the electronic patient profiles, all of which were available to the DEA but not presented at trial. ABC NEWS JUNE 18, 2020 BY JUSTIN MUSTAIN The DEA was first held liable in the early 1980s for discriminating against black agents in salary, promotions, supervisory evaluations and discipline. Last year, a federal judge in Washington ruled the DEA had run afoul of court orders intended to remove the subjectivity from the agency’s promotion process. U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan reiterated that the agency owes damages to black agents whose careers were affected by what he called an “unlawful selection device.” Attorneys for the black agents said they are still trying to determine how much money the DEA owes their clients. The DEA also could owe as much as $12 million in attorneys’ fees. A half dozen retired black agents told AP that the “good ol’ boy” mentality is so entrenched at the DEA that it persisted even under black attorneys general Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch. They recalled colleagues who faced retaliation and exile for speaking out and said the agency’s failure to diversify has hampered its ability to build trust. (9) (10) NEW YORK TIMES SEPTEMBER 17, 2018 According to Professor Leo Beletsky and Jeremiah Goulka, ” It is more than clear Congress must take actions to reform or disband The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). DEA has had over 40 years to win the war on drugs. Instead, its tactics have fueled the opioid crisis. To finally make a dent in this national emergency, we need to rethink the agency from the bottom up.” “Parts of the D.E.A.’s law enforcement mandate should be transferred to the F.B.I., delegated back to the local or state, or eliminated. A significant portion of the D.E.A.’s budget should be reinvested in lifesaving measures like access to high-quality treatment.” According to Professor Leo Beletsky and Jeremiah Goulka. (11)

very fascinating seeing other astrologers doing it have a unique method of telling you your fate is not how and why you did it but you have your vulnerability point in which they decide you (but in my case, i hated how 'the world of' wasn't mine in joy anymore, i loved the aspects of what planets can do but the 'joy' is more of an intimidation tactic for heartbroken astrologers to become prostitutes for 'cheap money' than the liability of using knowledge to expose themselves than garnering a nation of the worst minds to go after 'the weirdest version of themselves'

having religious trauma is why i always wanted to embody my techniques with a reason to occupy my devices (astrology) to the beacon of in my own home

i am a Capricorn rising

i was ultimately caught up on wonder based, my teachers being known to me were the ones who i had karmically subtracted their reasons to be a dutiful astrologer in making bias with comparitive religions in making knowledge more resourceful in a very cognitive (focused by heart not mind) way in believing in the masses to do you as you being me, so knowledge is more open and vulnerable with you than you are to yourself, like people don't want to pay for an astrologer than you are to pay for a friend you knew for life cuz you're not selling your body for a 'requirement' than you are with being yourself is immunity to hate pain but you make that a living

i insanely talk deeply about the wonders of the human mind like it's a intrusive thought and make it a subject about making resources more openly acquired if you're new to the blog or are wondering why i don't have a free-spirited access to social media than the typed method like i have ways with social media more openly but i help with TV media to plot for the storylines than against it which i knew how fast i was caught up with my beginners access to learning you is knowing who has the upper hand ultimately, i don't make astrology feel brash by living my greatest standard on making religions feel too cute for you (the reader) to imagine for a life like mine is like you, and i make heavy precautions on subjects that requires your interests in your journey up to be seen because you truly do

heavily saying this on behalf of everybody's time. i am a conspiracy theorist idealist, i hated the power-ups than now being one (one now with a feeling to be than being a feeling to be contained) i make heavy arguments against the norms of having a mental disorder being a physical case to the world not being made for them to questioning the odds. it's so nice to meet you by the way

Mama Lola

Mama Lola: a Vodou Priestess in Brooklyn is a biography of Haitian born priestess Marie Thérèse Alourdes Macena Champagne Lovinski, better known as Mama Lola, by anthropologist Karen McCarthy Brown, turning Mama Lola into the most famous Vodou priestess in America.  First published in 1991, Karen McCarthy Brown’s biography of Mama Lola’s life and family lineage, beginning with her great-great-grandfather Joseph Binbin Mauvant, acts also as a cultural and religious history of Haiti, Vodou practices, and the Haitian immigrant experience to the United States.  They met in the summer of 1978 when Karen Brown was working for the Brooklyn Museum on a survey of the local Haitian immigrant community (1).

Arguably anthropologist Karen Brown approached Caribbean history with a gendered feminist lens, an approach that had been done before to Latin American history with Ann Pescatello with her article “The Female in Ibero-America,” in the Latin American Research Review in 1972, and the essay collection Health and Healing in the Early Modern Iberian World.  Gendered history of Haiti was still a new approach for Haitian historians and anthropologists at the time Karen Brown’s book was published in 1991, even though women have played a part in Haitian history since before the revolution, an aspect delved into by modern historians like Philippe Girard in his 2011 book The Slaves Who Defeated Napoleon and “Rebelles with a Cause: Women in the Haitian War of Independence, 1802-1804,” for Gender & History in 2009.

The past books we’ve read delved into African healing approached as a more scientific history, like Pablo Gómez’s The Experiential Caribbean, or narrative like James Sweet’s book on Domingos Álvares.  Here with Karen Brown’s book our class had finally read a work that approached African healing, as a religion, comparing aspects of Haitian Vodou to Catholicism, noting how the lwa are often called saints despite not being traditionally saintly (6).  As a more anthropological work, Dr. Brown’s book had a more similar methodology with Clifford Geertz, than Jacob Burckhardt, quoting Ms. Alourdes heavily throughout the book, aiming to tell Mama Lola’s story and refute the negative stereotypes of Haitian Vodou (14-15).

In Chapter One we learn about Mama Lola’s great-great grandfather Joseph Binbin Mauvant in Jean Rabel, his daughter Marie Noelsine and her granddaughter Philomise, Marie Alourdes’s mother (26-27).  Chapter Two was dedicated to one of the lwa spirits that influenced Mama Lola the most, Azaka Méde, also known as Papa Zaka, and the connection Mama Lola stated to have, describing the work Marie Alourdes had fashioned to celebrate the spirit’s birthday when Dr. Brown visited her, including an altar (36, 40-42).  Chapter Three was dedicated to Alourdes’s grandfather Alphonse Macena and the relationship with her great grandmother Marie “Sina” Noelsine (84).

Chapter Four was dedicated to the warrior spirit Ogou with brief mentions of other spirits like Ibo, and the connection to Haitian politics; the later half of this chapter is dedicated to a vodou marriage Karen Brown went through to the spirit Ogou (100, 134-138).  Chapter Five was dedicated to the baka, evil incarnate spirits, and the baka summoned out of jealousy to Mama Lola’s grandmother Elsa Fouchard, separating her from her daughter Philo, but leading Philosmise into becoming a Vodou Priestess herself (142-143, 153-154).  Chapter Six used Mama Lola’s story to showcase the spirit Kouzinn, the female counterpart to Azaka and one Alourdes did not cite a Catholic counterpart (156).

Chapter Seven Philosmise formed a friendship with pharmacist Clement Rapelle, him asking her to treat his son in the Haitian tradition and he bought the medicine Philo needed after she gave birth to Mama Lola (205, 213).  In Chapter Eight, Mama Lola explained to Dr. Brown the female spirit group, the Ezili (222-223).  Chapter Nine delved more towards Mama Lola’s present, showcasing the conversations Dr. Brown had with Marie Alourdes, especially the ones over Mama Lola’s daughter Maggie and how Alourdes really wants Maggie to get married than to follow in her footsteps (263-264).

With Chapter Ten Dr. Brown to Danbala and the Haitian rituals performed in New York (272, 281).  In Chapter Eleven Dr. Brown again dedicated a chapter to watching Mama Lola’s religious practice one Sunday and the conversations Karen had with Mama Lola, her second-level helper Robert Gerard, and her daughter Maggie (313-320). The final chapter, Chapter Twelve, was dedicated to the Vodou spirit of death, Gede; Mama Lola also admitted that she is also Christian, telling a story of a time she turned down a customer away for being a paying member of a satanic group, saying “Satan is more powerful than me,” (330, 337).

Overall, religious anthropologist Karen McCarthy Brown, had created an interesting approach to Vodou history that still primarily focused on Mama Lola, and her family lineage, not delving out too much into Haitian history and the Vodou religion the way Dr. Sweet’s biography of Domingos Álvares did.  Although that was likely to happen when your “subject” is still alive and became a lifelong friend.  I also appreciate how Karen Brown avoided otherizing the Vodou religion, even participating in a spiritual marriage with the lwa spirit Ogou.

Dreams from 17.12.23

Dream 1: I was at work. I had just opened the shop in the morning and you weren't there yet. You were late. I was texting you and you said you were on your way. Then I say uh oh to you, because I noticed two other people had 3 imessage dots appearing underneath their name, meaning they're formulating a message. It's TL and another female co-worker. I realise they're about to tell me that they're going to be late as well but least I already know you're on your way. It starts raining really hard, I can hear the rain drops crashing onto the roof. Then I see you in the corner of my eye, rushing past to sign in on the employee time clock that’s in the back room. I'm glad you’re here.

Dream 2: I was late for work. I was getting ready but it was taking me ages. At first I wasn't rushing but then I was panicking to get ready as fast as I could. I put one of my contacts lenses in but had to reach for a new box for the other eye. But the ones I'd ordered were way too big, almost comically so. I tried putting one in but couldn't and if I had it basically would have covered the entire sclera of my eye. I remember that back when I ordered them online, I had messed around with the base curve and diameter numbers, instead of entering in my default options. I was thinking they would fare better but it obviously did not turn out to be the case. I didn’t want to wear my glasses though. I rummage through my other boxes of contacts lying around, since I've bought so many, but they're all too big. One box even has many different sizes which is very odd since it's usually always uniform. A single contact lens of a more expensive brand I sometimes purchase, is oddly packaged all by itself in a bag of water. After awhile I manage to get the correct contact in. Since I was so short on time I decided I wouldn't put on any makeup and opted go barefaced instead. I will at least curl my eyelashes though, and when I do, a whole bunch of them come out. This quite upsets me but I try not to react.

I didn't feel as though I was wearing a very appropriate outfit to go to work in. It was too casual since I have on light wash flared denim pants and converse shoes. I should put on something more professional but there's not enough time and I'm already so late. I could still be comfortable yet stylish, if I dig out my black flared jeans but it's probably in the back of my closet and will take forever to find. Besides, I don't think the manager at the other shop (which is where I'll be working today) will mind, as long as I turn up.

Throughout this, I am messaging you since you are working at that shop right now. You say it's fine, it's not busy. I know that there are three other pharmacists on duty right now anyway so it’s not so bad. As I make my way there on foot, I remember there is a coffee shop that I frequent that is on the way and I think about getting a coffee to wake up properly. I don't think I end up buying one, since again, I'm so late. I'm walking toward work but I'm getting lost. I can't recognise the way and I even walk in the opposite direction for awhile before correcting myself. Many hours have passed now. Do they even need me?

My companion with whom I allegedly sodomized. Youths I allegedly kidnapped, I was to hire them —most of whom were not children by your modern lens. Whores who I allegedly poisoned, but the pharmacist found no mercury nor arsenic in their bile.

I drew (finally) about the Marquis de Sade topic again, and also i think i’ll talk a little about the Marquis de Sade’s wife.

This is how i imagine Renée de Sade and Marquis de Sade.

I’ve read a lot of articles about how did they really look like, except everything said something different, so i freestyled as how i imagined them to look like and their colour palett, but i love how the drawing overall turned out since i had a hige artblock the last few weeks

They got married because Sade’s father wanted him to marry a noble-woman, into a noble and rich family, and Sade had a girlfriend like that at the time, but his father did not like the family she was from, so they had to break up and Sade had to marry Renée de Sade. Surprisingly they grew a bond of each other, (Renée was one year younger than Sade) but Renée did not want to give in to Sade’s sexual fantazies, but she did nothing (especially after a while when she realized ahe can’t do anything) to really stop his husband from doing what he did, the things he got him into trouble. Now, even when Sade committed a crime with his male servant, kidnapping 6 children and locking them up to La Coste, using them and even each other for their own pleasure (they committed sodomy, nothing worse than that), Renée was there, and she did nothing serious about it. A girl’s father began to search for his daughter and in the end, Renée’s mother, Marquis de Sade’s mother-in-law reported the Marquis, that’s how she got him in prison, and Marquis new that his mother-in-law got him into prison. The 120 days of sodom was written than and there in 1785, and it was inspired by what he himself commited, except the 120 days of sodom is way more “creative” and “worse”.

Sade and his wife slowly grew apart, Renée grew sick of de Sade and that he ‘never changes’, and even tho they loved eachother, especially the letters Sade wrote to her from prison shows, that after a long while of being in that marriage, they both grew annoyed. (Note: i’ve read some letters by Sade from when he was in prison, and i searched some which were to his wife, i found them fun to read, he asked for things in them and also i saw very clear ‘fight’ scenes, except i only could read his side)

They ended up divorcing in 1790.

N.S. doctor’s licence suspended over 'serious concerns' about prescribing Ozempic

The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Nova Scotia has suspended the licence of a doctor who allegedly wrote thousands of Ozempic prescriptions for Americans and prompted British Columbia to limit the drug to Canadian residents.

Dr. Gus Grant, Registrar and CEO of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Nova Scotia, identified the physician in a statement as Dr. David Davison, a doctor who lives in the U.S. but holds a Nova Scotia licence.

“By law, the College must issue licences to qualified non-resident physicians. To our knowledge Dr. Davison has not practiced in Nova Scotia for many years,” said Grant.

According to the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Nova Scotia website, Davison’s business address is located in Texas.

Last week, British Columbia’s Health Minister singled out a Nova Scotia practitioner for allegedly writing thousands of Ozempic prescriptions that were shipped to American addresses through two Vancouver-area pharmacies.

Ozempic is the brand name of an injectable drug called semaglutide. It was developed for people with Type II diabetes and obesity, but many believe the drug's weight loss side effects have been hyped by advertising and celebrities.

The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Nova Scotia initially learned about the issue through media reports and asked for more information.

On Wednesday, the College received a letter from the B.C. College of Pharmacists outlining “serious concerns regarding Dr. David Davison’s prescribing.”

Grant said an investigation committee issued an interim suspension of the physician’s licence and the College has launched a full investigation.

Grant said public safety is the primary lens through which it regulates medicine in Nova Scotia and it has a responsibility to ensure physicians licenced in the province are delivering care appropriately and safely.

He said the letter the College received from the College of Pharmacists of British Columbia said two B.C. pharmacies received more than 17,000 prescriptions between December and February and the B.C. College of Pharmacists believes the majority of these were written for patients in the United States.

“Based on the volume alone, the prescribing is not in keeping with the standards of the profession. I cannot see how the volume of medications prescribed could possibly be supported by proper medical assessment and judgement. On its face, the prescribing appears incompetent,” said Grant.

Grant added that while inter-provincial prescribing has long been a part of the pan-Canadian approach to health care, international prescribing is not.

“Pharmacists cannot process prescriptions from American physicians unless signed off by a Canadian physician. This signing off is in law prescribing. Before any medication is dispensed, it is up to pharmacists to determine whether the prescription is appropriate,” Grant said.

CTV News reached Davison via telephone Thursday evening but he declined to comment at this time
