People do drugs. It's just becoming less taboo to talk about it. Putting humans under the influence of daily booze and speed in charge of the biggest and most populated ships that steer our society.. yeah. We can see the results. It's not new though. It's part of how we got here. I know the article isn't in judgement or is but walks a linguistic line that's razor thin to technically not be directly judgmental. They do frame the drugs like they are illegal when probably they are prescribed. It's reporting the fact that execs are comfortable disclosing and maybe the drug specifics are changing a bit. Not the booze and speed, but the addition of ubiquitous ketamine or LSD or whatever, but judgement of drug users by puritans is so fucking counter productive. I really appreciate those in those positions who are willing to talk about it even though they are only doing the disclosure for "I work so hard and am under so much stress that I'm high as fuck all the time" clout/flex. We have such a skewed understanding of what drugs are and what they do, I think it's a net good that they are self reporting.
