NGL withdrawal during a natural disaster sounds pretty ducking dangerous.

Cocaine withdrawal isn't that bad. It's all mental. You might get anxious or depressed and cocaine will be the only thing you think about for a while, but that's it.

Benzo or alcohol withdrawals will actually kill you. Those need to be handled with medical assistance.

Opioid withdrawal isn't quite that dangerous, but it certainly will make you want to die.

This man speaks truth. Take it from someone who used to work at local Crisis Intervention center.

That's beside my entire native side of the family being a bunch of scummy abusive addicts who admittedly knew how to party.

Watching people die yearly in your twenties while the others who made it through slowly wither away on random Facebook updates people share with me gets sad/old quick.

Flooding DURING a natural disaster!? Like a flood during another bigger flood.

Lol, no way this is real. Those guys are too well dressed to be crack heads. Maybe the shirtless dude in the middle, maybe.

It's a real photograph from the aftermath of hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. It's a racist joke based on a real tragedy, making it double shitty.

Here's the original

Damn. That's pretty fucked.

Crack? Portland? I’m guessing you have pretty much never been to Portland, if even once.
