I don't get it but I'm not sure I'm supposed to.

Life + death = mortality
is pretty good IMO, it is a nice blend of the concepts in an intuitive manner. I don’t really get drug + time = occasion
But drug - time = narcotic
Is kind of interesting; one definition of narcotic is> a drug (such as opium or morphine) that in moderate doses dulls the senses, relieves pain, and induces profound sleep but in excessive doses causes stupor, coma, or convulsions
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/narcotic
So we can see some element of losing time in that type of drug. I guess? Maybe I’m anthropomorphizing a bit.
