More than $485 million in illicit drugs and drug ingredients seized in rural B.C. community

Some excerpts:

According to police, the amount of fentanyl and other materials seized would have amounted to more than 95,500,000 potentially lethal doses and worth an estimated $485 million in profit.

The "superlab" was located in the community of Falkland, B.C., an unincorporated community about 50 kilometetres east of Kamloops.

The Mounties say the bust is a "decisive blow" to those who organized it and that in addition to the facility in Falkland, several locations in Surrey were also searched.

Aside from the drugs, which included 54 kilograms of fentanyl, 390 kilograms of methamphetamine and 35 kilograms of cocaine, police also seized 89 firearms, several small explosives, body armour and $500,000 in cash.

Pretty sure it says "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

It's hard to understand without the associated hand gestures though.

(Edit to add in seriousness: yes, the first part says it can't pop up the integrated flash, second part says try restarting the camera, I think)

Interesting idea! Since everyone in the city was a sports fan and participated in the riots, and of course everyone participating in the riots was from the city, it totally makes sense.

The US generates almost stadium-full amounts of trash every day.

They're called Trump rallies.

This is what he wanted. Now the state is the bad guy.

Yeah, weird. But Larson wasn't necessarily the one doing the colour versions. He probably did the original in black and white.

Anyone know what they're saying about this in the MAGA camps?

[–] JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

I think we're confused by what you're saying.

Yo momma tried reading a book but she so fat she ate it as a snack instead.

(I guess we stopped using the term "greenhouse effect" so much though)

Agreed, just making a joke because of the context.

Real men sit to pee so they don't have to clean their own piss up later.

Whenever I talk about this, some asshat will come along and make a comment about sitting on a tree. No, dumbass, I don't sit to pee on a tree. Or a urinal. I sit to pee on my toilet at home so I can tell you what an idiot you are while I'm pissing just to prove how manly I am.

There are a few vendors set up, but not like other times I've been here.
