]]> 2025-09-04 08:26:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ranganathprr/vbj5jntq6811r4ga/wish/3568593566 https://padlet.com/ranganathprr/vbj5jntq6811r4ga/wish/3568593616 interesting that peter said that they are essentially “assisting suicide” and that he’s only seen 2-3 people completely get clean

  • how open peter was with everything that happened there

  • the socialization in the smoking room and the difference between that space and the injection room

It was really nice they provided clothes, food and drink though. I also thought it was interesting they test the drugs to see the purity and they want the highest purity for the users there

Brings up systemic issues that are present in US that may not deter those in Denmark.
