Strange question but are there any NES games featuring drugs?

I think Dirty Harry is supposed to have bags of cocaine and there's that other game Narc, but I was wondering if there were any other explicit or implicit references to drugs in NES games? No particular reason I'm just always fascinated by what they were able to get away with in some of those 8-bit era releases.

Edit: Thanks very much for all the recs everyone. I thought this would get like maybe three replies but I appreciate all the games people were offering. For a general list here are the biggest recs:

- Narc

- Wally Bear and the No Gang

- Code Name Viper

- Vice Project Doom

- Dirty Harry

- Wrath of the Black Manta

- Raid 2020

- Bubble Bobble

- Deja Vu

- River City Ransom (potentially)

I’m sure there are more and I wasn’t including alcohol or cigarettes here but for those interested these are the top recs.

[RANT] The situation with Deb is infuriating

Nobody likes to call it quits--least of all New--but I think we should all know a lost cause when we see one. Deb should be allowed to die with dignity but the woke doctors and greedy hospitals are insisting on keeping her alive all so they can drain New of his funds and much needed political manhours . It's at the point where I kind of wonder if there might be some darker forced behind it (🐀).

Are there any legal experts out there who know if there's a way we can force the hospital's hands to give Deb the sendoff she deserves?

Question re the Pilot Episode?

Is Enzo—the Italian chef who’s opening the restaurant—supposed to be a human? I thought Dootle Dots was just a fantasy world with only dots but are there real humans in it?

Possible Spoilers: What was the first time the Sizzler controversy was mentioned on the show?

I recently joined the network and have been going through the seasons. It seems like >!Joe and Toni's scandalous affair!< is revealed sometime between Oscar Special 12 and the start of season 16 but I can't find it anywhere. Not even on the Excel timeline. Was it mentioned in a tweet or something?

I really really hope they format the next Oscar Special like the White House Correspondence Dinner

I saw RM Brown's most recent vid on the dinner and it legit felt like an On Cinema sketch. Having Newt angrily switch from all his Oscar jokes to angrily ranting against his enemies would be incredible.

Questions regarding hydrogenated oils in peanut butter brands

I was talking with my trainer who said that peanut butter brands like JIF have hydrogenated oils which contain trans fats. I've heard mixed things about how bad the trans fat content of these oils is for you so I was wondering:
1 - Is the amount of trans fat in something like a JIF container bad enough that you'd recommend avoiding it?

2 - Are there any major brands that don't have hydrogenated oils?

Thanks everyone for all the responses. I'm not a nutritionist so take this with a grain of salt and read the comments yourself but it appears most people have said that the hydrogenated oils used to store things like JIF don't have trans fats. Best practice is still to get natural peanut butter brands--the kind with the oil that separates at the top--or just pb brands with the shortest ingredient lists.

Old Account got taken over by a bot. Is there any way to report it?

I have an old account u/Rocky_Raccoon_14 which I created using a burner email and a random password. I eventually lost the password and created the account I'm on now, however, the old one seems to be taken over by a bot. I know this because:

1 - The account added a "Snoovatar" which I did not make and which I do not use.

2 - The account was making comments in subs I haven't visited after I stopped using it. It's set to "Private" now but before it was I could see the new comments added after I stopped posting.

Is there any way to report the account to the admins? The only thing I can report now are their usernames.

Has the scholarship on Cormac McCarthy changed much since the Augusta Britt article came out?

Like the title says has scholarship around McCarthy changed since the revelations? I only really know about Cormac McCarthy scholarship through the Reading McCarthy podcast which is an excellent source, though, I was a little frustrated that the host seemed to write off the possibility the problematic relationship between Bobby and Alicia could have been influenced by McCarthy's own problematic relationship between himself and Augusta.
