I love that story.

A batch of shrooms never has byproducts or laced drugs.

A classmate and friend of mine died in 2004 from mushrooms that were laced. Ask with caution if you want to know more, it could fuck up your day.

I think the issue with LSD for beginners is how long it lasts. Mushrooms lasts a 5-6 hours on a full stomach, 2-3 hours if you blast them powdered on a empty stomach. LSD even a small dose is a 12 hour commitment, add another 12 hours per 1000ug. Source: Took a lot of psychedelics and even more trip sitting.

EDIT As for trip potency, they’re both too different and too similar to judge. Similar in terms of visual distortions, different in terms of colour, both very colourful. LSD has a stimulant-like MDMA body high, mushrooms has a body high that’s hard to describe. One is an emotional rollercoaster, the other is a different emotional rollercoaster. One has you speak to aliens, the other has you speak to God.

It’s the best “matrix” since the first one, for sure.

5 hours later… Nope. SpaceCowboy probably just rolled their eyes and continued jerking off to 15,000 dead children thinking it’s a smaller number than 12.

Why? Everything’s going according to plan.

Hot Fuzz

Don’t worry, Israel is going to sacrifice the red cow this month - https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/israel-palestine-west-bank-settlers-red-cows-third-temple Israel’s crazy death cult religion wants to bring about the end of the world with fire to cleanse the world during rapture, so your sick-fuck wish might come true.

EDIT - https://allisrael.com/blog/what-do-five-red-heifers-have-to-do-with-the-oct-7-massacre <- Israeli source in case you think this is some anti-semetic hogwash, it’s not. They just omit in the article the slaughtering of the cow as part of the ritual.

I respect the effort. I feel like these conversations are many drops but are creating a collective tidal wave, I just find the concept of defending mass murder over learning something new is such an alien concept to me like I can’t have conversations with people who are so bad faith, like, to a point where its homicidal. It’s scary.

I thought it was just bots on reddit saying this Hasbara pro-IDF Nazi-esque genocide justification but there are actually people everywhere thinking like this. We truly live in dark times. IDF are engineering something worse than fuckin Leningrad in WW2, and there are soooo many people openly defending it, I can’t believe people can be so simultaneously heartless and brainless just KILL KILL KILL. It’s like a nightmare I can’t wake up from.

This guy has been spouting genocide justification in other threads as well, they’re a lost cause. They’ve written essays about how all Palestinians are Hamas and should all be wiped out, denying that starvation is even happening, etc. Good luck trying to save this one!

Well said.

Dude anyone defending Israel at this point is devoid of humanity. This guy literally shrugs off aide workers being murdered with precision strikes, let alone thousands of innocent deaths. They’ve demonstrated their belief that 1,500 Israeli lives are significantly more important than 32,000+ Palestinians. “They’re killing less every day” lie as if it’s a good thing, makes me sick. The amount of time they take to write out their long-winded comments excusing mass murder is fucking shocking, and I can’t believe people like them actually exist. Israel could nuke New York, say it was Hamas, and this brainwashed idiot would believe it even if their own family was killed in that strike.

Where is the proof that there are thousands of UNRWA employees that helped Oct 7th happen? I tried looking it up and couldn’t find anything.

“Many of us like to ask ourselves, ‘What would I do if I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South? Or apartheid? What would I do if my country was committing genocide?’ The answer is, you’re doing it. Right now.” - Aaron Bushnell

When are we going to change that? It’s been a while, like 600BC, but we managed just fine for tens of thousands of years before minted coin.

Bullying is a part of British culture, the “yes m’lord” attitude is still strong within them, don’t cause a fuss, “keep calm and carry on” is their motto for a reason…

As someone who has spent half their life in the UK and the other half in the USA, specifically the English are particularly nasty and have a strange admiration for the “clever bully”, both in school and at work. That isn’t to say the USA doesn’t have bullies, they’re just not as universally admired.

There’s one of an IDF soldier proposing to another, with romantic music and fellow soldiers applauding, on top of the rubble of a school they blew up. It’s cartoonishly evil, and it couldn’t be even more cartoonishly evil unless they did something ridiculous like bomb Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus Christ, on Christmas day. I mean, that would be insane on so many levels if they did that, right? Yeah well, they did - https://www.livemint.com/news/world/israeli-forces-strike-bethlehem-on-christmas-day-amid-raids-across-occupied-west-bank-11703498336126.html

Same as it ever was.

Only since around 600BC when coin turned money from a quantitive measurement of debt into a protection racket against soldiers, mercenaries and thugs (military colonialism wouldn’t be possible without this redefinition of money). Yeah, there were always societies with ruthless hierarchies, but they weren’t the norm. Yeah, there was always inequality in wealth or physical ability, but wealth wasn’t always used to lord over and deprive from eachother. The norm for most of humanities 200,000+ years were societies of cooperation, a colourful carnival of experimental politics of the likes we couldn’t even dream of nowadays. Ruthless and brutal hierarchies famously collapse because communities actively decided to abandon them, move elsewhere, and create something new and better. Human history is marked by stories of societies who reject arbitrary authorities, the ability to go elsewhere, and most of all have the expectation that wherever they go they’ll be cared for. None of these freedoms exist anymore, so the question is how and why did we lose these freedoms? And who benefits from these losses of freedoms? After accepting that society is what we make of it, defined by rules on how to live amongst one another in a bottom->up direction, then why are we so eager to blindly accept arbitrary authority, stay put, and fear our neighbors?

How?

The only two candidates available want to help Israel, Biden and even more so Trump. If you’re hoping that some sort of legislation, protest, or representative will push for removing aid to Israel then I want what you’re smoking. The world will scream and shout while Israel/US does the genocide anyway, and we’ll add it to the long list of war crimes committed that we do nothing about except whine and complain.

In a democracy you have to be a player, crying into the void of the internet isn’t going to do anything. I would give my suggestions about what needs to be done, but then my comment will surely be removed by a mod. The problem is I don’t see any other solution, except hang on and let time itself deal with them.
