Not a good long term strategy, trust me on that one.

[–] Zaphod@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 16 hours ago (3 children)

Nah, better to take psychedelics and improve yourself

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

I don't have to improve a damn thing if I don't wanna.

[–] django@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Improve like: quit you stressing job.

Or be fired for asking why the walls are breathing.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.world 7 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

or get promoted for having that wild / surrealist energy that the CEO has been looking for all along for some reason

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

These are both within the realm of possibility.

[–] tlou3please@lemmy.world 10 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

Do it the California way. Way better for your health.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

What is the Californian Way?

Wangs. Wangs everywhere

Thanks. I wish I liked it.

I disliked the effects of weed back when it was illegal (Canada); just made me paranoid. Our legalization of recreational marijuana helped me understand that weed is more than THC. (Anything I'd have smoked back in the 90s was probably crazy amounts of sole THC.)

Legalization has allowed me to experiment with CBD levels. Now I get a 1:2 ratio of THC:CBD and it's a completely different thing. I'm relaxed, smiley, glued to the couch and off of Benzos. (I like Mango Haze.)

I know it's not for everyone, and I'm not a pusher, but I thought I'd mention that CBD is a game changer. (There is CBG now too.)

Roving gangs of suburban kids on bikes

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, but… speaking from experience, it is definitely possible to overdo it on that angle. The psychological impacts of heavy long term use are… shall we say, unsubtle, but at the same time, REALLY hard to admit and see for yourself if you’re in the throes of it.

Moderation and T-breaks are frankly pretty crucial.

[–] tlou3please@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

Oh definitely! I agree. I vape on a more or less daily basis, which is based on medical advice and a prescription, and even then I think it's important to take some time out every now and then.

I've been California sober for a year and I feel much better, I do miss drinking sometimes tho.

[–] UxyIVrljPeRl@lemmy.world 13 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

But can you drink and breath?

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 10 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Fun fact: amphibians can't breath while eating or drinking because they lack the "wall" between mouth and nose. They can touch the nose with their tongue from the inside. I'm not sure about reptiles

[–] parody@lemmings.world 7 points 14 hours ago

I knew a girl like that once

Wait what

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 6 points 18 hours ago

gotta stay hydrated

[–] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 4 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

You can, until it kills you.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 5 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

That just means I no longer have to worry about the fact that I probably wont ever see a dime of the social security I’ve paid into for my entire career

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Cheers, comrade.

Once you're dead you've got no problems to cope with. Win win!

[–] Kitathalla@lemy.lol -5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It's much healthier to cope by punching yourself in the balls (or the cunt, for others so inclined). The beautiful bliss brought by big ball busting breaks by bleary boundaries binding you to bleakness.

Great suggestion! Gonna try this on the bus on my way to work later.
