Maybe I should text random numbers and maybe I'll get lucky. Or I'll get in trouble for being a public nuisance.

Good points to be honest.
Yeah that makes sense. But on the other hand, jailing people for life costs money and there's the slim chance they can escape. But I suppose if you have good security then a full life sentence would be an effective deterrent, so maybe you wouldn't have to pay for very many people to have such long sentences, so it might not cost so much.
I'm not sure, but the UK's National Health Service mentions depression as a potential side effect.
Drugs can have all sorts of side effects through mechanisms that we might not fully understand (maybe scientists do understand this particular mechanism though, I don't know).
I guess I'm being downvoted due to just mentioning the death penalty. The only reason I asked is because callers on LBC (radio) were mentioning the death penalty so I wondered what people on Lemmy would think.
Turkey is in the customs union without being in the EEA right?
You're probably right. Things like joining the customs union probably won't happen until at least the next government in 2029.

Fair points. I guess I don't mention Lemmy much online anymore anyway. If I mention it to somebody in real life I guess I'll tell them there are multiple servers to choose from.
True. I don't think I would recommend someone to look at Hexbear or Lemmygrad. Maybe I would mention Lemmy.world as the easiest entry point to Lemmy, and the existence of other servers like Feddit.org, Lemm.ee, etc.
Can Trump's incoming administration really be said to stand "for the little guys" when it's full of millionaires and billionaires?

Maybe there will be some small movements towards more co-operation with the EU, but probably not any big moves for at least the next few years.
The UK could even join the EU customs union without joining the single market or the EU itself, like Turkey has done, but yeah it's probably unlikely for the moment. Labour don't want to take a big political risk I guess.
