Re: What are you watching at the moment

Just watched the first two episodes of Dopesick. Really good.

I’m glad we have the FDA and pharma companies leading us out of this pandemic, completely trustworthy and ethical!

Is it a drama or a doco Comrade?

It’s a true story drama based on a book. All about the devastation caused by OxyContin and it’s influence on the opioid issue in America and the corruption between pharma and government. Pretty timely.

Like most pharma companies, unbelievably unethical.

Thanks mate, sounds interesting. I'll check it out.


When my dad had cancer in the last few weeks before he died my parents house was full of fentynal, Oxy and all sorts of opiates and benzos and the like. After he went we put it in a box and took it back to the chemist. About a year later my mum was reading the H/S and saw that particular chemist had been raided and their licence revoked for over prescribing!

I've got a big blue bottle of morphine left over from dad.

A friend of mine got his vasectomy done at Dr Snip under local anaesthetic. After hearing about the absolute horror show, I decided to get mine done under General.

They must have given me morphine because I remember when I woke up the nurse asking me how I felt.

I told her I felt the best I've ever felt in my whole life, and I meant it.

I've always had a great deal of empathy for drug users and addicts, but in that moment I understood.

So I'll pass on the offer thanks GG.

I had a procedure done at Footscray private. I felt so good when I came out I went to the Bulldogs shop and bought everything.
I didn't need any of it.

I just think it's sensible.

You wanna be awake while someone rips and tears and cuts at the plumbs? Hard pass.

Re: What are you watching at the moment

I've been watching American Rust on Paramount +.

It's a slow burner but quite a gritty rust belt story from the US with Jeff Daniels.

Some people won't like the pace but I'm enjoying it.

Nah, I didn't want to be put to sleep.

Funny part was the amount of nurses all standing around watching - very embarrassing.
