    brand name pentothal, but only available in us as generic due to being banned from export by the eu due to its use in executions. the only us manufacturer of the drug, hospira, stopped producing it. previously, one out of 3 main drugs administered during prison executions, and is now used as an agent to relax patients before they are put under general anesthesia in medical settings.

    one of the few anesthetics safe to use for pregnant women that will not affect the fetus. also used as fatal-plus in veterinary settings when putting animals to sleep. this chemical and several others previously administered during executions have been banned for that use, which has led to botched executions since.

  • love

    love can mean so many things. it could mean the little jump in your heart when their name pops up in your notifications. it can mean your willingness and desire to please them in every way possible. it can mean the outpouring of support for that special friend. it can mean the smile that creeps across your face when you think of that one text, moment, conversation. sometimes it can be the way your heart aches because you’re stuck between two. sometimes it can be the wandering imagination of a lonely moment.
    love seems to be the most complicated thing in the universe, and i’ve studied the universe.
