I can't say the signs weren't there, can I? So well written/directed/acted, but the second half in particular absolutely crushed me.

Political attitudes to any kind of drug here are archaic (unless of course you're a cabinet minister and then it's all good). Lots of paternalistic "ah, no, we know best, that's not for you" embedded in politics and medicine too, of course.

Oh, I can imagine 😬

Ah, cool! I wonder if the @scarredforlife.bsky.social lads would remember something?

And, the last time I looked, it's *incredibly* difficult to get it prescribed and the number of conditions for which it's prescribed is miniscule.

I feel like there's an itch at the back of my brain about this, but all I can think of immediately is something almost 20 years later. I only remember reading a few episodes of MACH Zero though - was it ever collected?

Um... having just watched series 2... I would say that if you're feeling in any way vulnerable it may not be the best idea. Maybe I should've waited... it's beautiful but *so* sad. YMMV, of course, but... 🥺

Well, then that has made mine 😊

I'll stop for now, but I can't promise to never say it again. And you're lucky theres a character limit 😁

Haha! It just seems like if you carried their disgust and outrage just a step too far... 💀
