    A drug overdose is termed as a posioning in these kinds of formats/contexts, for whatever reason.

    The vast majority of these ‘poisonings’ are not like… snake bites, food poisoning, radiation poisoning, cyanide… they are overdoses of some kind, meth, fentanyl, prescription drugs, alcohol, etc.

        Hah!

        I was going to post Alice Cooper’s “Posion” as a joke response, but then I watched the music video, and its basically a 45 year old describing how he can barely resist deflowering an 18 yo.

        So… yeah.

        I’m going with ‘rape culture’ was more the norm in the 90s.

          I think I’ve heard from several people on lemmy now that most of the ‘classic rock’ musicians had pretty horrible attitudes towards children, ala what you’re now used to with republicans.
