So, just had an interesting conversation regarding the history of opium vs. aspirin...And, as I suspected, people have been getting fucked up longer (since 4000 BCE) than they have been treating simple pain (3000 BCE). Let's hear it for the indomitable desire of people to get pissed.
Relatedly, the excellent Velvet Underground and Nico with their classic "Heroin".
