The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Some of the envelopes - there were multiple - contained fentanyl.

As a result, buildings were evacuated.

For those who don't know, fentanyl can be absorbed through the skin which is what makes it so dangerous - even casual contact can result in a bad day:
cdc.gov: Fentanyl: Incapacitating Agent | NIOSH

Fentanyl can be absorbed into the body via inhalation, oral exposure or ingestion, or skin contact. It is not known whether fentanyl can be absorbed systemically through the eye. Fentanyl can be administered intravenously (IV), intramuscularly (IM), or as a skin patch (transdermally).

If you click on the twitter link, you'll see the threat letter that was sent to the election counting offices. Featured prominently on it are the intersectionality flag, a pentagram and the Antifa 3 Arrow symbol.
