  • Pliny the Elder’s Ancient But Refreshing Take on Opium

    By M.L. Lanzillotta, M. L. Lanzillotta| Filter@ Pliny the Elder, a Roman statesman and writer, lived during the 1st Century CE. He died, famously, during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius—although more likely of a pre-existing condition than anything directly related to the volcano. A very studious fellow, Pliny devoted much of his time to investigating various natural phenomena and writing books. The best known of these is his extraordinarily long encyclopedic tome, Historia Naturalis (Natural History).

Vape shops, with their familiar neon signs, are a common sight.

  • A Year After I Quit Drugs, the Stigma Still Haunts Me

    By M.L. Lanzillotta, M. L. Lanzillotta| Filter@ From the moment I began openly acknowledging my opioid use—often via self-deprecating jokes, at least to friends—people shamed me. This is not surprising. We live in a culture where many people still believe that using illegal drugs—and sometimes even legal ones, like cigarettes—is utterly shameful. There is this assumption that if you use certain drugs, you cannot by definition be a good person.
