A recently released study by NYU confirms something that should have been obvious to anyone whose brain hasn’t yet jumped ship waving a white flag: You shouldn’t trust that whatever white, powdery substance you think you’re putting in your body to actually be that substance. A recently released NYU study determined that 40 percent of people who thought they were popping molly—the supposed pure form of ecstasy’s main ingredient, MDMA—actually had unwittingly ingested synthetic cathinones, the active ingredients in bath salts, “and/or” other psychoactive substances new on the market, “intended to mimic the effects of traditional illegal drugs.”

Middletown, Conn. police arrested four Wesleyan University students in connection to the apparently bad batch of MDMA—aka Molly—that put a dozen people in the hospital over the weekend.

Eleven students at Wesleyan University in Connecticut are being treated after overdosing on the drug MDMA, or "Molly," Reuters reports. One student, a sophomore, is in critical condition.

Do you "do" molly? Are you not necessarily addicted to the ecstasy replacement drug, but you can't have fun without it? When the molly kicks in, do you really feel like you become one with the music? Is this basically what you've been doing for the past three years? Are you hallucinating on the ceiling? Do you keep thinking about your dog who was barking when you left the house? Are you outside of your apartment complex swinging flags around because you really need to rehearse?

MTV has announced a casting call for a host of new True Life episodes. Among them: "My Parents Like Their Weed," "I'm Being Slut Shamed," and "I'm Addicted to Molly." It's a great time to be alive and in slightly complicated situations.

Four strippers were arrested in New York today for allegedly drugging several men and charging their credit cards with purchases totaling $200,000 dollars.

Today, The Atlantic has published a long story by Roy Klabin in which Klabin writes about shadowing several drug dealers as they do business. But some of the numbers in his story do not seem to add up.

Capitalism has an innate ability to overtake and subsume all popular things, even those that were initially imagined to be explicitly anti-establishment. This goes for cool bands, great art, and even, as a matter of fact, illegal drugs.

If you want to hide a raging cocaine problem, all you have to do is tell people you’re going to rehab for a drinking problem. According to TMZ’s latest report, that’s what Zac Efron did when he entered rehab “roughly 5 months ago” and it was “insinuated” he was being treated for alcohol. But Charlie St. Cloud was hiding a much bigger secret on the set of Seth Rogen's new film Neighbors:

After four MDMA-related deaths and scores of overdose in New York, Boston, and DC last weekend, investigators are now trying to figure out whether the adverse reactions were all tied to a single bad batch.

Last weekend, the Electric Zoo music festival in New York was cut short after two young attendees died of drug overdoses. This calls for a party!

The final day of the Electric Zoo was canceled yesterday after two deaths and multiple hospitalizations from bad Molly. But all Molly is bad Molly if you take six hits of it.

Electric Zoo, a three-day electronic music festival in New York City, has been canceled after two attendees died and another four were hospitalized in intensive care after taking drugs at the festival.

Police officers in Dallas are on the brink of a major breakthrough: they're going to figure out what drug "Molly" is and where you're getting it.

In 2012, it's very possible for a rapper to get signed to a major label after the success of just one viral hit song — for evidence of that, one needs only to look at artists like Azealia Banks or Kreayshawn.
