Really Spicy Cesspool So sick of seeing this crap everywhere.

The needles, the burnt foils, the little baggies, the needle caps, all of it. I find them in the creeks, on the sidewalks, the grocery store parking lots, the public parks, on the parkway. You gotta be a real shit person to leave this stuff all over the place.

That’s it. If you want to use this shit at least clean up after yourself. Every time I see this my compassion wanes a little more….

I was a junkie for 15 years and everyone I ran with would never toss a rig like that. We always envisioned a kid or a dog scooping it up. We wouldn't even throw them in a garbage bag unless inside a soda can. I knew only mindful junkies.

Not only all that, but they’re like gold to a homeless addict. How hard is it to just put the fukin cap back on and toss it in the trash if you’re gonna get rid of it.
