These idiots are so convinced that merely touching fentanyl will make them collapse that it actually happens to them.

If fentanyl was that strong, people would buy one bag and it would last for like a year.

[-] ShepherdPie@midwest.social 57 points 10 months ago

Just so we're clear, those cops were tested after that ordeal and had absolutely zero fentanyl in their system.

[-] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 10 months ago

And the tingling he felt was just piss running down his leg.

[-] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 22 points 10 months ago

Imagine a drug you only had to touch. You'd never run out!

[-] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 10 months ago

What? I always ran out of LSD and all you have to do is touch it because it's skin permeable.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

True, but fentanyl is generally not. They do make fentanyl patches, but casual exposure, like a cop touching a tiny bit of fentanyl, will not result in fentanyl being absorbed.

I know this, but I was responding to the idea that a drug you could touch and get high from would somehow last forever.

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 6 points 10 months ago

Please don't take away my dream of endless LSD.

[-] Garak@lemmy.zip 3 points 10 months ago

Get yourself a degree in chemistry and you'll be able to make a lifetime supply.

[-] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

Best I can do is ADHD and an internet connection.

[-] Garak@lemmy.zip 1 points 10 months ago

Ahh you'll be fine then!

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

I know. I just felt clarification was necessary for people who don't understand the difference.

[-] KevonLooney@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

That's just because you don't know how to make it, and they are selling it to you a few drops at a time. I believe the ingredients are actually pretty cheap. Chemistry students make it.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Sell a man some LSD and he trips for a day. Teach a man to make LSD and he trips for a lifetime!

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 8 points 10 months ago

Yeah, right. I don't believe you. HOW would they do that? What steps could they possibly take!? What ingredients would they need and where would they even get them!?

[-] frezik@midwest.social 4 points 10 months ago

We need details, dammit.

More seriously, a friend of mine was a chem student, and he says pretty much every one of his classmates knows how to run off 2 liters of LSD. Which should be enough to send every horse on the planet straight to the moon.

[-] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 5 points 10 months ago

Maybe LSA, but probably not LSD.

Synthesizing the drug isn't the issue, as long as you have the right equipment and knowledge. The difficult part is getting the correct precursor chemicals.

[-] PopMyCop@iusearchlinux.fyi 0 points 10 months ago

I mean, step one: acquire the precursors. Step two: take organic chemistry 1; then organic chemistry 2; perhaps something strange like p chem, or environmental chem or chemical instrumentation; ask the professor between classes how to make it; take another class like drug discovery and design, or advanced organic chemistry....

Step three: make the good stuff.

[-] Pips@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I am not recommending that anyone do this but you don't need anything more advanced than Orgo 2. The issue isn't making the compound, at least once you have the precursors, it's ensuring that it's not contaminated with other products in a way that harms or kills you. It's not enough to get any yield, you need a safe yield.

[-] PopMyCop@iusearchlinux.fyi 2 points 10 months ago

That was the joke. You technically don't even need the ochems if you just ask the professor like I said. We're trying to lead kids down the dark road of the chemistry cult.

[-] Pips@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 10 months ago

I took Advanced Orgo for fun so I'm with you.

[-] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Only If it’s wet

[-] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 10 points 10 months ago

Not quite. Drugs that can be absorbed through the skin, well, they get absorbed.

It's not an infinite drugs glitch, just like powdered Fentanyl can't be absorbed through the skin.

[-] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 19 points 10 months ago

Yeah... I am sure there are some idiots who believe in the horrors of fentanyl.

The reality is it is a catch all to excuse all the other drugs in their systems. If someone notices a cop is clearly amped up on amphetamines then the reality is that someone in the tri-state area had a single particle of fentanyl on them and THAT is why the cop who just killed four people is alternating between growling and crying while looking even sweatier than alex jones.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Does fentanyl amp you up? I would think it would make you super mellow.

[-] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 months ago

Fentanyl does whatever you want it to baby. Just so long as that involves beating your wife and kids when there isn't a black kid nearby.

Fentanyl itself is an opiod so it is a downer. But fentanyl, as reported by the media and embraced by cops, is a magic wonderdrug where a single particle in a hundred mile radius will instantly infect every cop through enough PPE that they could survive a zombie infestation and make them do whatever crazy shit they got caught doing.
