Took me a second too, but it's supposed to be a list of descriptors of the woman in the picture. A better way to form it would be "She uses drugs, but she is also a wife, a coworker, and a grandmother." with the last three as bullet points.
It's marginally less confusing when you see the whole series instead of just this one grandmother poster. Each one has a list of bullets describing a person, with the one thing they all have in common being "Uses drugs".
Translation: “respectable property-owning white boomers also use drugs, and shouldn’t be lumped in with hippies, gangbangers and morally degenerate hedonists”

Is that really all they could come up with is marriage and employment status? FFS, these are people, way to miss the assignment.

Is the stigma around incorrect use of bullet points? I'd rather keep that one going.

Common misconception, that's actually a half-colon (not to be confused with semicolons or colon type-c)

Ahh ok. There is actually a Durham City in the USA that often gets confused with Durham Region on the internet. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durham,_North_Carolina

It's for opiates, now I'm imagining grandma sitting on her knitting chair shooting up heroin with her group.

I like Durham Region, I go to visit and everyone's wives and grandmothers are on drugs.
And that's just alright by me

So… are we asking for a world with zero stigma? Like against jay walking, shoplifting, infidelity?
I like graffiti but I don’t want is EVERYWHERE?

Is this real? It has been twenty years since I moved away from Durham region but this dumpster fire of an ad does not surprise me at all.
