I just smoked about 5 hits of my first infused joint and I am on the moon shit posting on Reddit and doom scrolling. So here’s the scenario I just went through:
I am responding to a post and I type a joke about sending someone to the “Gulag” and I stop and think about what a Gulag is and then I think about bad it was for soviets to be sent there to suffer and die. Its bad for me to joke about a bad thing but I didn’t realize the gravity of it, it is just a joke to USA citizens but its a sad thing to a lot of Russian people. I would never make a a joke about sending someone to the Jewish concentration camp because it’s sad and a bad thing. Jewish people were worked and killed just like in Gulags.
Is our “general” hatred toward Russia a reason we joke so easily about Gulags??
Am I just tweaking? Probably. Hope this makes sense I am too high to proofread. Godspeed 👍
Im 4 days from payday with some stale pretzels. I'm making this my rule from now on.
In fact, it is also the reason social media was invented in the first place.
Think about it. A movie tells us how we should react, what is appropriate to do. With that it sets standards for us to thrive for. If you have enough of them, you are seen as a good human being. Wealth, fame, but also a conscience, a heart for the weak and elderly and everything good in between.
Those standards are wildly idealistic and in our real world, disappointment and lost opportunities are part of our daily lifes. But here there is no happy ending.
To cover up this lack of "good qualities" we trick and lie, seek validation and acceptance.
At the end of it all we are impostors behind our seemingly beautiful lifes.
i do what I wanna do and if u don't like what me and my crew be doin then fuck u
Humans slaughtered those who disagreed with them. Now, we are forced to put up with everyone through LOVE! It is very weakening living through resentment thinking you are being strong/more evolved.
i think i smoked myself into temporary unable-to-taste-sweet. i can eat a handful of sugar (worlds sweetest material in the world) and it tastes like sand, But i can taste salt (the saltiest material in the world). help? i got reddit specifically to inquire about this
UPDATE DO NOT WORRY FALSE ALARM i can taste sweet things again. lucky me! happy halloween or whatever ya celebrate guys gals and nonbinary pals
Check my comic I made about bad trips. I was high AF while drawing it. It will get crazy guys.

This is my second time getting high im hhalucanting really bad and my jaw is like I can’t feel it im so dizzy im um ok right I shouldn’t worry no no ok so basically what should I do when I get high like this im just gonna try watch anime and chill and hopefully sleep? What do you guys recommend to call me please please im trying not to get scared its so strong like i keep saying random shi and like BRO MY CATS EYES BIG ITS SO FUNNY LFMAOAOOOOO HELPPP ok bro seriously she looks like the alien girl from gaurdians and the galaxy. So can someone help thanks! Im shivering so badly i had spaghetti and my tongue pushcakly wouldn’t push it lmaooooooo help
Just have no idea what it is. It’s not just money.
Also I’m going sober for a while. But my brain is kind of perma high. So. You are as “my people” as it gets.
Each time we recall a memory, it's really us conjuring our best approximation of the memory. That approximation then shapes our definition of the memory. Like frequently compressing and extracting an image file, it becomes distorted over time.
it would be so bad
Idk
It just sounds like more than one. Is it one asparagus?
Two asparagi?
What if the Amish beliefs and practices are actually right and the rest of us are fucked for eternity
I have heard people say this about their phones before--like their phones just have this evil vibe radiating from them--and I get it. But I personally just feel this with socials tbh.
This statement goes for all social media but especially Facebook and Twitter/X. Think their algorithms are like specially designed to farm engagement and piss you off as much as they can. But idk.

How is the L in salmon silent if I can hear it???
For years I’ve pondered if such a concept as alternative dimensions of time exist, like how we have 3 dimensions to length, width & height. Then (over many smoke sessions over the years), pieced together that perhaps this is why Dark Matter is so difficult to detect.
I expect it to be impossible to detect due to whatever kinds of particles that make it up exist on an alternative time dimension. You can be at a spatial location within L,W,H but you are unable to influence an event unless you are present at the location at the correct time. It’s no good showing up to a birthday party a day early or a day late; to attend you must be at the right place and at the right time.
Likewise, we cannot detect Dark Matter directly in any experiments yet because its time never lines up with ours. Scientists can build whatever fancy particle detectors they want, but they won’t catch a detection “event” by them.
Now we can observe Dark Matter indirectly by its gravitational influence on galaxies & other large astronomical structures, but its always fuzzy/blurry looking when seen this way. Gravity is a very weak force compared to the other 3 known forces that our known matter interacts with, so low resolution makes sense, but this idea gives another explanation to factor in.
If you take any 2 random particles in the universe, they will for their entire existence (beyond the extremes of “the beginning” and “the end” at least) will always be within a certain range of distance from one another. If particles A and B are both in the same galaxy, then odds are very high that they will never be further than a galaxy length of distance apart, and neither will the influence of their galaxy. This will be true of the vast majority of matter, and also of dark matter too.
So if dark matter is on an alternative time dimension, it’s gravity ought to be smeared across time from our perspective. The entire history of a particle’s gravitational influence spread out evenly(?) against ours, concentrated by the fact that A is always going to be so close to B. To us, this gravity will not situate around any particular location any smaller than this distance. Hence why dark matter seems to usually exist as mostly spherical halos around galaxies.
I don’t yet have any clear thoughts on whether there is or can be a way for dark matter particles to ever interact with ours in any other way, like if there’s a way to convert one to another or what. I just expect all of the current approaches to trying to detect it will continue to fail, unless/until additional dimensions of time are comprehended & considered, which is well beyond my ability.
Our time is linear from our perspective, flowing in one direction from past to future. I also believe “dark time” is also linear the same way against dark matter. However the two times are not linear against each other, and are not parallel. My intuition is that dark time is “above” ours in such a way that if it ever does intersect with our own, it can do so anywhere (well, anytime), but it is not true in reverse, hence why dark matter is diffuse from our perspective. It is nowhere and everywhere at once.
Getting drowsy & my explaining powers are waning but that’s basically the gist of what THC puts into my brain.
How many people never would have gotten married or had kids if they'd had more options and autonomy? I probably wouldn't exist. This was within my mom's lifetime. Crazy
You'll know it's me when you see your cat stop mid yawn and look offended
Sometimes you mess up a word/words so bad you have to restart it completely.
Rather than selecting and deleting or backspacing loads of times, there should be a button that erases the whole previous word.
Whether that would be a separate button or a button modifier I’m not sure
"Woah, look at 'em go! haha!"
