    Sadly, nothing I have written has ever topped this article from 2015.https://www.vox.com/2015/6/15/8774233/alcohol-dangerous …

        Alcohol is a horrific drug. It ruins so many lives. The older I get the more I understand Prohibition. Not saying I think we should go back to that, just saying I get it.

        So true. The implications of alcohol in society are wide and deep.

        I remember that fondly. If I can boost your work, I also thought this one from 2015 was a tour de force!https://www.vox.com/2015/2/13/8032231/crime-drop …

        Is it bad that I both fully agreed with your article and still drink alcohol but avoid other drugs?

        The 2021 version would be how media have entrenched this narrative of relaxed alcohol policies during COVID (e.g. cocktails to go) as an effort to save restaurants, bars, etc. But little to no coverage of changing alcohol consumption patterns during COVID.

        I love this part: "marijuana — another drug that federal law enforcement officials have warned is dangerous — reportedly caused zero overdose deaths in the past few thousand years."

        We surveyed 5700 homeless Veterans to find that alcohol trounced other substances in terms of the frequency with which it caused overdoses requiring emergency care People rarely want to discuss it! https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2762813 …pic.twitter.com/c7ixhkKJFP
