    Stop replying so god damn fast with your shitty, unfunny gifs. You respond before I can even finish editing my comments.

    Are you just sitting in front of your phone, waiting for the mail icon to pop up in your Lemmy app? Go away and find a hobby. I was just making conversation; I don’t care enough to argue with you.


  • It’s that very pedantic, dismissive attitude of yours that I was literally just complaining about before you walked through the door. I love science and dislike people who use it to win an argument.

    (Also fuck Will Ferrell. Dude isn’t funny. Stranger Than Fiction is his only good role cause it’s the only one where he doesn’t act like a fucking man child.)

    A lot of it is denial as well. In the mental health realm, for example, I meet a lot of Boomers who show obvious signs of ADHD and/or Autism and they haven’t the slightest idea they have it.

    If you ask one of them to get tested, they’ll just stubbornly refuse and insist there’s nothing different about them, even when you point out their symptoms to them. “A lot of people do this; doesn’t mean anything!” Yeah well a lot of people are neurodivergent. Something like 30% of the population has ADHD, for example.

    Just because a lot of people have a mental health disorder, that doesn’t give you an excuse to just ignore it! You still need treatment and therapy.





  • I’ve only ever known “ricing” as a semi-racist term for people with no money who got inspired by the early Fast and Furious movies in the 2000s; stuck a bunch of cheap junk on their Asian commuter cars like fiberglass body kits and fake turbos, in an attempt to make them look fast and sporty.

    Ricing out your car isn’t as popular as it used to be in the 2000s, but I still see the occasional Toyota Tercel with a giant fake carbon fiber wing and fart can exhaust sputtering down the road. Underglow seems to be making a big comeback too.


  • Dude start off with something more mellow, or you’re going to be extremely disappointed if/when you decide to try other drugs. Psychedelics are so intense that I don’t even consider them to be drugs. They’re something else entirely. A “god molecule”, if you will.

    I’d suggest starting off with Nitrous Oxide and/or weed first. Nitrous has psychedelic properties (but without the visuals), and cannabis can also be psychedelic when you have no tolerance. Also they last more in the minute range—not hours (especially nitrous)—so they’ll wear off a lot quicker should you decide you don’t like the feeling.

    Trust me, I’ve tried every drug under the sun. I’m a daily or near-daily user of several substances; psychedelics like shrooms are the one substance that I avoid. Only for special occasions, once every few years at most. Not the very first thing I’d try. It would be the very last.
