Crack is one of the drugs I would never try due to the so many bad outcomes. Meth, heroin, fentanyl, and other opiates are also on my NO list.

Expanding on your example I believe "honor" implies that the person doesn't really believe in anything, doesn't have an independent system of morality.
They only care about perception among their in-group.
Deezer. They had great prices for a while. Luckily I locked in a yearly subscription before the increase. Right now it's equal to Spotify, so I'll reconsider after it expires.
Bandcamp is also great if an artist you like is on there
Could it serve as an iron supplement?
