Amphetamine and dextroamphetamine combination is used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy (uncontrollable desire for sleep or sudden attacks of deep sleep). These two medicines belong to the group of medicines called central nervous system (CNS) stimulants.

German food is incredible; I didn’t even know hating German food was a thing. Gimme those sausages, sauerkrauts, cheeses, cold cuts, schnitzel and hot potato salads every day.
The breads, cakes, chocolate, and pastries are next-level too.

I hope they used practical effects in this game. That’s where his work really shines in my opinion.

Yeah, when a grown-ass man is fucking teenagers I assume it’s because they want someone to control and/or exploit.

VGA stands for “vestigial garbage adapter” after all.

We rarely get snow in Texas; we get a solid sheet of ice that covers everything. The city also doesn’t plow, and nobody has snow tires because it’s only going to be a day or two.
Yeah, southern drivers don’t know how to drive (in or out of snow, really), but places like Denver and Dallas have such different experiences that it’s not really fair to compare them. It’d be like mocking Alaskins because they’re miserable in 90°F; they don’t have the AC to handle what is incredibly mild weather to me.

The implication was that they’re smarter than “the educated.”
It’s an old fascist saw that folk wisdom is better than book-learning.
From They Thought They Were Free- the Germans, 1933-45:
Because the mass movement of Nazism was nonintellectual in the beginning, when it was only practice, it had to be anti- intellectual before it could be theoretical. What Mussolini’s official philosopher, Giovanni Gentile, said of Fascism could have been better said of Nazi theory: “We think with our blood.” Expertness in thinking, exemplified by the professor, by the high-school teacher, and even by the grammar- school teacher in the village, had to deny the Nazi views of history, economics, literature, art, philosophy, politics, biology, and education itself.
Thus Nazism, as it proceeded from practice to theory, had to deny expertness in thinking and then (this second process was never completed), in order to fill the vacuum, had to establish expert thinking of its own— that is, to find men of inferior or irresponsible caliber whose views conformed dishonestly or, worse yet, honestly to the Party line. The nonpolitical pastor satisfied Nazi requirements by being nonpolitical. But the nonpolitical schoolmaster was, by the very virtue of being nonpolitical, a dangerous man from the first. He himself would not rebel, nor would he, if he could help it, teach rebellion; but he could not help being dangerous— not if he went on teaching what was true. In order to be a theory and not just a practice, National Socialism required the destruction of academic independence.
In the years of its rise the movement little by little brought the community’s attitude toward the teacher around from respect and envy to resentment, from trust and fear to suspicion. The development seems to have been inherent; it needed no planning and had none. As the Nazi emphasis on nonintellectual virtues (patriotism, loyalty, duty, purity, labor, simplicity, “blood,” “folk- ishness”) seeped through Germany, elevating the self-esteem of the “little man,” the academic profession was pushed from the very center to the very periphery of society.

People can be led by the nose if you confirm their bigotry and make them think they’re smart.
- Comment on Feminism.... Not even once folks 1 month ago:
I’ve found that most people who hate feminism are sad divorcees who are pissed because they couldn’t financially trap their spouse into legalized rape.
Hating equal rights for women says a lot more about you than it does about women.

- Comment on Was the fall of Rome this stupid? 2 months ago:
After the murder of Pertinax on 28 March 193, the Praetorian guard announced that the throne was to be sold to the man who would pay the highest price. Titus Flavius Claudius Sulpicianus, prefect of Rome and Pertinax’s father-in-law, who was in the Praetorian camp ostensibly to calm the troops, began making offers for the throne. Meanwhile, Julianus also arrived at the camp, and since his entrance was barred, shouted out offers to the guard. After hours of bidding, Sulpicianus promised 20,000 sesterces to every soldier; Julianus, fearing that Sulpicianus would gain the throne, then offered 25,000. The guards closed with the offer of Julianus, threw open the gates, and proclaimed him emperor. Threatened by the military, the Senate also declared him emperor. His wife and his daughter both received the title Augusta.
- Comment on GOG expands their Preservation Program to include Gothic 1 & 2, Mortal Kombat Trilogy and more 2 months ago:
I would love to play Gothic 2 with German audio and English subtitles. The English VO is maybe the worst acting I’ve ever heard, but I’ve heard the game is amazing. I know a bit of German, but not enough to keep up with a whole game.
- Comment on Was it worth it? 2 months ago:
Conservatives think that assistance to the less fortunate should come from charity instead of the government.
Mainly because this gives them direct power over people: they can indoctrinate people and control poor people when the threat is starvation and homelessness.
- Comment on Lara Croft is a Sociopath 2 months ago:
I don’t read many comics, but there was a Wonder Twins run by Mark Russell that was amazing.
The villain had a plan to scramble everyone’s identity on Earth, so one day you could wake up and be in a horrible economic system. His thinking was that with the deadline approaching, people would have to work to make the world more fair for everyone.
Spoiler
The world leaders are so relieved when he’s finally caught, because they can stop wasting money on improving the lives of poor people.

Fuck this bullshit.
You can be against an evil settler-colonialist state like Israel without being a racist, conspiracy pedaling piece of shit that drives hatred and violence towards people who have nothing to do with it.
We deal with this psycho shit from the right all the time, and it’s wrong when they do it. Try having goddamn principles.
