Why is one bullet point just "Uses Drugs"?

[-] [email protected] 96 points 1 day ago

Took me a second too, but it's supposed to be a list of descriptors of the woman in the picture. A better way to form it would be "She uses drugs, but she is also a wife, a coworker, and a grandmother." with the last three as bullet points.

It's marginally less confusing when you see the whole series instead of just this one grandmother poster. Each one has a list of bullets describing a person, with the one thing they all have in common being "Uses drugs".

Is that really all they could come up with is marriage and employment status? FFS, these are people, way to miss the assignment.

Goes to church every Sunday

That's how we often identify others

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

How I introduce myself as well. “Hello! Man. Father. Uses drugs. Retired bus driver.”

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

That makes so much more fucking sense, thank you lol

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Phew, thank you

Translation: “respectable property-owning white boomers also use drugs, and shouldn’t be lumped in with hippies, gangbangers and morally degenerate hedonists”

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 day ago

As a morally degenerate hippie adjacent criminal, i really support not being lumped in wuth those people.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 2 days ago

Is the stigma around incorrect use of bullet points? I'd rather keep that one going.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

Right, like why is there a tiny bullet point sitting on the floor after “Stop stigma”?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Common misconception, that's actually a half-colon (not to be confused with semicolons or colon type-c)

Whoever made it probably learned to shoot from a cop.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Good message but ??????????????

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

I like Durham Region, I go to visit and everyone's wives and grandmothers are on drugs.

And that's just alright by me

[-] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago

So… are we asking for a world with zero stigma? Like against jay walking, shoplifting, infidelity?

I like graffiti but I don’t want is EVERYWHERE?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Wild seeing city of Durham ad on lemmy. We’ve made the big time!

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Actually this is Durham region. A county near Toronto.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Sorry that’s what I meant. Region, city same thing. It’s all Oshawa.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Ahh ok. There is actually a Durham City in the USA that often gets confused with Durham Region on the internet. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durham,_North_Carolina

Something that people perceive as a negative trait.

It's for opiates, now I'm imagining grandma sitting on her knitting chair shooting up heroin with her group.

"Stop stigma. Get informed. Get involved."
Ookeeey

Wait. Does this mean I've been a real boy all this time?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

I should probably figure out what I took and get more then.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

I'm confused by your confusion.

Stigma, please.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

So my wife and her mum got the good stuff. Got it.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Is this real? It has been twenty years since I moved away from Durham region but this dumpster fire of an ad does not surprise me at all.
