      My old housemate was heading to Amsterdam for the weekend with some friends and the one friend stayed over at our flat the night before so they could leave early and I shit you not she was asking what drugs to take with them. Through the damn airports.

      We had to tell her to not try anything because she will most likely get caught and she’ll most likely be able to get what she wants over there.

      These people exist.

        Brittney Griner, yeah it was dumb but that was more political. She probably been though there many times. They just chose to enforce it that time.

          On the one hand, it’s still super fucking stupid. We had to give up an arms dealer or something for that. On the other hand, I could totally picture Russia just arresting someone because they decided that they were wearing the wingy colored socks

          Going into Russia at all is a stupid thing to do, going into Russia with literally any contraband at all is an insane thing to do.

          I wouldn’t attempt to go into Russia with a plastic knife just in case.

            would you throw away your once in a lifetime chance at the Olympics that you’ve been training for your whole life, just because it was in Russia this one time?

            always easier to judge from the sidelines.
