Mildly Interesting

This gotta bring awareness to things that really matter. Representation DOES matter!  The only people think it doesn’t, are people that are represented plenty. There gotta be a lot of Black People in cartoons for kids, and it doesn’t take much critical thinking to see why. We need Black Educated Successful Pride role models here. 

this is exactly the type of news i need in my life

It’s a vibe.

Longer answer: The US consumes 80% of the global supply of one specific opioid, oxycontin, and that’s because it’s available for sale and aggressively marketed here. Same with hydrocodone, which the US consumed 99% of. Out of all the world’s opiate supply, the US uses maybe 30% max. The article I linked above offers other estimates based on standard doses: by that measure, the US uses 47,580 doses per day per million people. That’s way the fuck higher than the next biggest opioid using country (Canada, 34,444 doses per day per million) but still nowhere near 80%.
