“Drugs are climbing, booze is falling”

 

1. Just switching norms, not fixing anything.
   Booze is old-school – all about toxic masculinity, drunk fights, shame.
   Drugs (or “therapy stuff”) show up with a new look:
   microdosing, LSD guides, biohacking, “opening your creativity.”
   Same addiction, just dressed up in fancy words.

2. High-class hedonism.
   Booze is cheap, for the masses. The “new drugs” are for the upper tier.
   Not some needle junkie, but the psychonaut in a startup, taking tiny LSD hits or mushroom extracts to sharpen focus.
   Sobriety and buzz merged into one: optimized pleasure.

3. The control trick.
   Booze is obvious – you reek, act weird, easy to catch.
   New psychoactive stuff is subtle, invisible, measured: a pill, a drop, a sachet.
   Society looks “cleaner,” but it’s just the same old mind tweak, packaged differently.

“The Table Manners of Power”

 

The world-cake has been cut. For now, only on the map.
But the diners have different table manners: some eat with fork and knife, others tear at the treat with their hands. And as always, beneath the table the small states scuffle over the leftovers. Power is sweet, as we know.
Yet history offers one lesson to take along: many of them end up with food poisoning — and in need of an enema.

“The latest laws in Estonia act like an obituary:
fewer birth certificates.
No heart certificates are issued at all.”

На открытом рынке в Тарту одна огуречница сказала:

Те,
кто дольше ткал жизнь,
те знают:
сколько ссудят твою душу,
и как мало её удобряют.
