It's a joke. But out of curiosity I ctrl+f'ed through the collected works, and the only mention of cocaine was in a letter from Engels to Ludwig Kugelmann (volume 48), in 1889 (after Marx's death, when Engels would have been editing Capital vol 3 and whatever else Marx left behind):
Dear Kugelmann, A Happy New Year to you. Thank you for the prescription for my eyes, which, however, is not nearly concentrated enough for me. Last year and up till August I used cocaine and, as this grew less effective (on account of habituation), went on to ZnCl 2 , which works very well.
But there are also relevant discussions of alcohol and opium in The Condition of the Working-Class in England and elsewhere."
It seems to cover most of it. You probably have to read the relevant parts on alcohol and opium to get the full picture but it is mostly a joke.
PS the uses of cocaine as a medication in olden days is pretty fun some times. I once saw an ad for cocaine as a "nasal anesthetic". I bet that flew off the shelves. Seriously though, it was probably fairly expensive and diluted.
Btw did he change his name or is Sean Bean only his stage name? I see that he was born Shaun Bean. Well, Shaun Mark Bean but who cares about a middle name that isn't used.
Is this conversion thing real? I mean, they have two kids, right? Isn't this something you would typically talk about before having children? Or at least when kid 1 is baking.
If you are wondering how lactose-free goat’s milk stacks up against regular cow milk, it has a bit less lactose. As stated, the former typically contains around 4.1 grams of lactose per 100 grams, while cow milk contains 4.7-5 grams per 100 grams
Sheep's milk or buttermilk from cow's milk is about the same lactose contents as goat's milk. Less than 20% reduction.
The list of symptoms is really long for both autism and adhd and there's significant overlap. The same goes for identified genetic risk factors (if there wasn't I would definitely assume the genetics work was wrong). Trying to separate the two into clearly distinct categories is a fool's game in my view.
Well, the live action one will probably be cancelled before it gets to 8 seasons.
Edit: apropos of nothing just gonna make some dinner now and watch an episode of the Witcher
