We learned in D.A.R.E. that X is bad for you. Seems like X in its digital form is also bad for you and for its dealer.
- I was told to test your X to make sure it wasn't laced with something else. Pretty sure the online X is laced with a lot of racism, transphobia, homophobia, sexism, and everything else that makes a fascist get their dick hard.
