Let's put psilocybin in the water supply. Calm everyone down, make them un-depressed, and less hostile.

Just a thought. ?️

Growing up, my stepfather was a card-carrying John Bircher. This post reminds me of his dinner-table rants about the fluoridation of the public water supply.

Plus ca change, plus ca meme chose …

Communities in my county successfully fought off fluoridating the water in incorporated areas 20 years ago and it hasn't been brought up since. A couple of dentists lost their elected seats: one from a school board, one from a city council.

Gasoline prices are edging downward here, below $5 per gal. And this is without a gas tax holiday. How is it in other areas?

Down in Michigan.  I think it's about $4.67 down from over $5.00.  I'm in a tourist region where people drive cars the size of living rooms and we have more visitors than ever.

[MaybeeRN]

It will be down significantly next year when the full blown Biden recession hits and people are out of work and jobs dry up.

Gas prices here (Central N.C.) have not reached $5/gal , YET! In fact, I think it has gone down a small amount since yesterday, maybe. I dunno. We are the old folks who do the grocery store, pharmacy, restaurant take-out, and stick pretty close to home, seldom more than 20 miles away. But I have seen on the pumps where the person before me -- esp if a lrg pick-up truck or SUV -- some HUGE amounts of $$$$. It doesn't affect us as much, since we have small cars, and don't have to do any commuting. But it still is outrageous! I remember the days when you could fill your whole tank for, what, less than $10. (That means I have some wear and tear on me!)

Regular has dropped just under $5 where I am, but premium (93) is $5.69/gallon. That’s what my vehicle is supposed to drink, but I’ve been filling with mid (89) which is currently $5.29 for a while. No issues as I stay outta sport mode & drive with a light foot. A plus to this is I no longer challenge teslas to drag from stoplights when I go head down to urban areas. That sucks up way too much gas. Yeah, their ludicrous mode can beat me, but not by much & that has freaked out a few tesla drivers. Yeah, I know I’m immature….
