Would a 4D being theoretically be able to teleport? Or rather, look like they're teleporting? That could explain the speed of that tic-tac UFO.

Does anybody get the logic? I'm in no state of mind to elaborate. I'll try.

Okay, if my understanding is correct, we move through a 4D world, but in 3D. Things happen in 3D as time continues. But think about time dilation. If I'm going fast, everything else is slow, and vice versa, that whole theory.

So anyway, going 3D in a 4D world. We can manipulate 1D separately, we can use a flat surface. Same with 2D, we can manipulate height. Same with the 3rd dimension. It follows that 4D beings could control time, right?

When we utilize other dimensions by themselves, the other dimensions are still in use, just to lower degrees. For example, time is slower on a plane. I think flying vehicles are a huge point in life, and we are beginning to manipulate the 4th dimension. We'll get better at it as time goes on (ironically), but soon it might be really good.

What does this have to do with the tic-tac UFO?

It moves fast. Like, insanely fast. Almost like a cursor. I don't think it's speed, I don't think it's folding of spacetime; I think it's control of the 4th dimension. Speed can't be the only way to control time.

I can't possibly make sense anymore. I forgot what my point was, then, whatever. Does that make sense to anyone?

Stephen King was right when he said you'll never have any friends like those you did when you were twelve.

True words. That phase of life when your best friend who lives a few houses down is the world to you? That age in boyhood, ten to twelve, when puberty hasn't started yet, and you haven't discovered girls yet. You'll never have platonic friends like that again.

Are man-made things artificial or are they natural?

Everything humans make is just a higher level of natural. Human beings with free will are the natural creation of the universe. The universe made us by assembling organic molecules together and created a free thing being in the process. So, whatever that free thinking being himself creates is a natural product of the universe's creation. It's just natural on a different level. When people say "artificial intelligence", it's not artificial, it's the natural progression from organic life to electronic life.

Golden Ratio/ 70:30 Rules

Just was high and I keep seeing the 70:30 rule in everything I do. Similar to the Golden Ratio and 1/3 ideas. Has anyone experienced this?

Spheres and spirals! High physics y'all!

Why are spheres the go to shape in space and nature? Does that tell physics researchers anything about the nature of the spacetime reality we live in? Is it simpy a feature of 3D space? Interestingly iin 2D a sphere would simply be a line that has a beginning and an end. Why would lil energy excitations dragging in a field of Boson create a force of attraction to other dragging excitations that pulls them together which pulls more and more into all sorts of spherical order in all sorts of magnitudes of sizes in what is otherwise chaos of probabilities. Maybe all size magnitudes? Does anyone know? Even a wave is a sort of 2 sided circle in time. A continuous line of probability with no beggining or end. Not to sound like the dad in Uzumaki but there's some truth in those spirasl!

I have no idea where to put this, so I guess delete this is it breaks any times, but I NEED to rant about politics and want to put it SOMEWHERE. Triggering.

This might trigger people, so...

...





...

They're babies. Trump is playing chess with babies.

On one front, "No Vlad, you can't take Ukraine. I know you want it, but, c'mon buddy." Putin is good at the game, he's like a college kid.

Then on another front, Leftie is in the crib crying. The mom was taken by CPS. Lil' Leftie has no concept of political strategy at all, he stops fussing if you call him a girl. He claps if you say "zir." If he throws a tantrum, "aw baby go to your safe space!"

And then another front, "no, we don't try to overpower each other in this family, Govvie. Yes, you are important, but we don't try to hit our brothers, okay?"

And Govvie's like "you're not my real dad anyway! I quit this game! GOSH!"

It's so fucking stupid.

Edit: "Rules," not "times"

Can this subreddit make a logically "consistent" Choose-Your-Own-Adventure book?

I write the first part, and I end it with something like "to continue into the forest, turn to page 69. To save Sam, turn to page 420.

And then the next poster says what page they turned to, and continues it.

OMG I just realized we can set a page limit and do that, make a real book out of it. But that's just highdreaming.

Day of celebration for edibles?

I have a quick question. So I took an itty bitty gummy, and being the biggest lightweight any of y’all know, I’m high as shit. And I thought ok, 4/20 is the day for weed, right? And 710 is the day for dabs (710 spells oil upside down (kinda)), right? Is there a day for edibles?

The OG Shitposter

Bruh, I would never joke about this, but i just read an article about the meaning of shitposting. like you can not get more dum or philosophical than an article on the meaning of the art of meaningless and fire wit. bro starts the article by citing Schopenhauer as a description of humor. i shit you not bruh, wtf schopenhauer funny about, how his fuckign name spelled? it gets better, apparently schopenhauer was the guy who was so out of touch with humor, that it came in useful. llike he so fucking didn't understand what humor was that he is now this "analysis of shitposting" idiot's hero. wihsh i could be a white gentile euro male cis thinks for job never been funny mf, then maybe someone would pay attention to me. like that is the best fail up any white man ever fucking achieved, schopenhauer not only emporer of godless morality and meaningless material, but now he's non ironically funniest guy pre "No Exit" (a gem of a hoot about obsessively living with fet addicts).

anyway, came to realize, the dummass write this stupidass shit, got it completely wrong. schopenhauer is piece of shit for shitposters. the OG Shitposter easily Derrida. And boom genius fluffy is first person in history to find use for Derrida. This mf Derrida got a movie in his name and it like, doesn't say his philosophie which is what his philosophy is. The mf straight champion shitposting con artist. if you tell me read Derrida and were like, "bro, i totally see the point, that like opened my mind to the idea that like words are affectted by the other words its next to." then you got trolled by Derrida. you ask any of the bitches out here, firing off witty lines roasting eachother, on the front lines of putting dummasses in their seats, they tell you, they don't have like 10 books that say jack fucking shit and gets to teach at a fucking school.

Frankly Schopenhauer aint got shit on not funny Derrida is. Derrida actually tryna be funny. See that's so much more cringe. Like Shchopenhauer knew his place in humor cause he german and the only funny german was that jew from the movie about how funny the holocaust was played by a italian dude, he just tried to explain funny. Like nice work, stay in yo lane arthur. But Derrida, this idiot tries to tell jokes and bro, they are ice cold, like never hit one time, never a chuckle in these 10 or so books. and that;s why its so funny according to that hipster dipshit who gets paid to overthink and use the word meta properly, which you know everyone actually fucking hates, right? like stop using the word meta already, it is so stupida and i hate people who try.

Question is, am i not right?

I have excellerated IQ due to the heightened neurotransmitter activity in my brain. Can you recommend a voice recording device for this old timer?

How do I get better at recording my ideas when I am in this higher intelligence phase of my high? I want to get better at writing or typing fast. However, my hands hurt sometimes. Especially during winter.

When I was younger, my brother and I played with this tape cassette recorder and tape player. We made lots of funny skits like SNL.

  1. I heard that there was this vivice recording function on a cell phone, but I have Android. Will I need to buy an electronic voice recording device, or can I just use my cell phone? Do you have recommendations for any voice recorders that you suggest I should purchase?

Maybe this is too unrelated to a sud subject.

  1. Does anyone else have moments where they feel like they have a higher intelligence while high? I notice myself sometimes using larger words, having a better memory, or performing more complex mathematical equations in my head. I am curious to know if there are others who have experienced the same thing.

Edit - On second thought. Forget the first question. I could easily research electronic products on my own. Any suggestions would still be appreciated, however.

I thought of two potential theories about our universe. If anyone wants to help challenge them

I chatted with Claudia for a long time and then asked for a gist and over view of it all so:

Theory 1: The Expanding Field Theory

Theory 2: The De-concentration Theory

“ Theory 1: The Expanding Field Theory Core Concept The universe isn't just expanding INTO space, but the fundamental field itself is expanding, creating new potential energy without energy input. Key Points

Field Properties

Field expansion is its natural state Doesn't require energy to expand (like permanent magnets don't need energy to maintain field) Creates new "space" and potential energy as it expands Might be the source of all observable phenomena

Energy Implications

Challenges traditional conservation laws Suggests infinite potential energy Energy scarcity might be technological limitation Like accessing an ever-growing reservoir

Entropy Reframed

Entropy appears to increase because field expands Not about disorder, but about filling new space Systems appear to "degrade" because they spread into new field space Time's arrow might be field expansion

Supporting Examples

Gravitational Potential

Mountain height as potential energy Expanding space increases potential Like constantly making the hill taller Natural increase in energy potential

Electromagnetic Parallel

Like how magnetic fields exist without energy input But constantly growing in scope Creates new potential without consumption Self-sustaining but expanding system

Theory 2: The De-concentration Theory Core Concept The universe isn't expanding, but rather de-concentrating from a higher energy state into preexisting space, becoming observable at our energy level. Key Points

Space Nature

Space exists everywhere already Including "beyond" observable universe We only see what's at our energy level Like a photograph developing

Universal "Expansion"

Not actually expanding Field dropping to lower energy states Becoming visible at our level Creating appearance of new space

Cosmic Implications

CMB radiation comes from all around Not just echo of Big Bang Evidence of ongoing energy transition We're inside the transition, not looking back at it

Black Holes

Regions of maintained higher energy Event horizons as energy state boundaries Hawking radiation like steam from phase transition Information preserved at higher energy state

Supporting Examples

Phase Transitions

Like ice forming in supercooled water Or steam condensing to water Different energy states becoming visible Process of state change

Big Bang Reframed

Initial de-concentration point First "phase transition" in our region Started cascade of energy level drops One of possibly many such events

Interconnections

Time

Experience of field changes "Doing forward" as natural process Connected to field expansion/de-concentration Might be reversible at local levels

Entropy and Energy

Both theories explain entropy differently but compatibly Both suggest energy abundance rather than scarcity Both challenge traditional conservation laws Both suggest deeper unity in physical laws

Implications

Technological

New approaches to energy generation Possible local time/entropy manipulation Access to higher energy states New understanding of field manipulation

Philosophical

Questions permanence of actions Suggests fluid rather than fixed reality Challenges traditional causality New framework for understanding existence

Practical Applications

Energy technology revolution Space travel rethinking Time manipulation possibilities New approaches to field interactions

Outstanding Questions

Physical

Mechanism of field expansion/de-concentration Nature of higher energy states Relationship between theories Connection to quantum mechanics

Philosophical

Implications for free will Nature of consciousness in field theory Moral implications of reversibility Meaning in a fluid universe

Both theories suggest a fundamental unity underlying physical phenomena and challenge our basic assumptions about space, time, and energy. They offer potentially revolutionary frameworks for understanding the universe and developing new technologies.

Influencer Plato?

I'm doing a fun thought experiment on how Plato would fare as a modern day influencer.

It started off as a parody and I even built a fitness/lifestyle influencer page for him.

But I'd like to evolve this into something that actually reflects how his thoughts and values would interact with todays media. So I'm looking for insights both from people who are well versed with his works and from those who know nearly nothing about him.

If you've got 5 minutes to spare, please help my research by sharing your thoughts through the form in my comment.

What the hell is this brain producing

Everything is so vague and focused on the present. Everything is just a reflection of what we know. We don't know where we came from and even less where we are going. No one knows what the beginning was. We are just an idea of ourselves - we a are like a car, that is just an idea of what it what is was ment to be, but are looking for new designs. Everything is an end in itself. Evolution and death.

Anyone else feel like there's too many kids on these "stoner" subreddits?

Honestly it's a lil annoying (kids on reddit to begin with is). Kids, teens, whatever you want to call them. I can't help but think at least half the posts in stoner subreddits are "I'm a kid and I'm new to smoking" vibes, which isn't even what a stoner is. These people aren't even legally old enough to vote, let alone legally smoke weed, yet they're online trying to act like stoners because they hit a bowl a few times that they've hidden from their parents.

Please, for the love of reddit, please just quit smoking. Go be a kid and enjoy your youth. Get off of reddit. There's nothing cool about dwelling on reddit. Don't be like these adults that dwelled on reddit and Internet forums all their life since elementary school. It isn't cute or healthy. It isn't a prideful or respectful thing.

You're not a stoner. You shouldn't even want to be a stoner. A lot don't even know what a stoner or pothead actually is. Smoking weed occasionally doesn't make you one. Having to hide your weed usage from parents doesn't make you one. Just slow down now before you even become one.

Keep your mind, lungs, emotions and body clear. Again; go be a kid/teenager and have a fun, experienced youth, but weed isn't and shouldn't be for y'all and I mean this in the most respectful way possible. Especially the weed nowadays.

If you aren't even legally old enough to make your own decisions, to vote, to have a credit card, to even have something legally in your name, you shouldn't even be allowed in smoking communities and you honestly wouldn't be outside of the internet.

Please don't let the Internet influence you or make you think you're older than you are. Just stay with the kid/teen friendly things. Weed isn't all cracked up like you think it is. Please quit coming to "stoner" pages and asking very basic questions too. It just screams "I'm a new kid smoker" and any respectable adult shouldn't engage with a minor about this. It isn't even legal to do so and that's something your parents should be doing, if anybody; not random people on the Internet. There's plenty of "first time smokers" communities but I just don't feel it's fair to call yourself a stoner at that point, therefore an actual stoner community isn't necessarily right for you.

It is legally a liability for adults to engage with anything regarding marijuana with children and teenagers that are under the smoking limit, on and off the Internet, and communities have been harassed by admins in the past because of it. Do I personally agree with the laws? Yes and no. I think someone should at least be 18 if they want to really get into marijuana but I understand why the law in most places is 21. It's a lil cringe seeing 15 and 16 year olds talking about weed, acting like they're this cool stoner, when they've been occasionally smoking for maybe a year and they have to hide it in their room otherwise they're grounded.

You want to do it, nobody on the Internet could prevent you. I could just hope your parents step in and steer you in a better direction. Back before all the social media, teenagers would just get together, hit a bowl, joint, blunt, whatever a few times and go on adventures or something; nowadays the kids converge online to virtue signal how stoned they are.

If you're underage, please keep your smoking activities to yourself/real life if you're bent on doing it but it's extremely awkward being an adult and constantly interacting with kids, especially on subjects related to weed. The amount of kids that attempt to talk about politics is annoying enough, but when it's about an actual adult-oriented subject in a grey area like marijuana, we really don't need to be interacting on that level. Let's keep it legal for reddit's sake. Unfortunately the same kids/teens run to reddit for other things they're not even old enough for as well. I believe reddit as a whole really needs to do better, as well as the parents monitoring them (unfortunately it's increasingly getting difficult for parents to be able to always monitor their kids because the cost of living is ridiculous, parents can't even be around like they need to/want to anymore so they have to constantly sacrifice parenting just in order to survive, then everyone blames the parent for not being able to be there all the time).

Be healthy, he happy, be alive. Keep your mind as healthy as clear and pure as possible. Weed DOES affect you, don't let anyone make you believe differently. The younger you start, the longer you smoke, the more you're affected, and likely not in a good way.

Enjoy your youth, weed shouldn't be for yall!

Perspective is literally

When you think about how important perspective is in society, relationships, science, mathmatics, physics, empathy, feelings, etc. In both mental and real physical ways. Even consciousness iis a kind of intelligence derived from the ability to perceive perspective and to tell the difference between your's and everything elses. In a way reality is built on context. When I think about how much math is built on the individual perspectives of numbers and coordinates, vectors, axis and the like. Think about the simple questions. It arises from a very simple concept of additional perspective or coordinate. A coordinate of thought outside of your physical being. How else to see yourself as anything but what your senses tell you you are? From the inside so to speak. Your minds eye builds a picture of yourself for better or worse but that picture never actually exists. It's always just a perspective that's as real or unreal as that perspective makes it. In physics the frame of reference concept hints to the underlying elemental nature of perspective. Frames of reference is so deeply intertwined in however this is all structured that we just take it for granted. Humanity really only recognized that framework for what it is when we started looking at huge structures in space which introduces yet more perspective for our nature. The power of perspective is not as apparent at our speed relative to light. Yet, it still manages to show itself in sciences, nature, art and in our very interactions with ourselves and each other.

Tldr: Perspective/coordinates as a holistic way of seeing reality.

Learn life philosophy from Piss!

There once was a great warrior. His name was…uh…Piss. Yea, I don't plan these things out. But, y'know, Piss? Best French kisser this side of Atlanta. He was so good that he was granted three lives by a moist, itchy wizard he met on Grindr, after, y’know, a hefty gargling competition.

Cough…uh…what was I spitting here? Oh, yea, warrior, warrior! Yea, so, uh, Piss was so fucking ripped that not only did his nipples cut diamonds, but he was known to kick the crap outta some abominable sabertooth werecrabs barehanded. On the regular. And, y’know, them shit’s good eatings, man. Just get some butter, or, y’know, margarine as my boyfriend lets me have.

Sigh…

Anyways, just forget about me. We’re jabbering about Piss! As such, I gotta go on and say that despite the Pissmeister being the alpha of all sigmas with dicks in the double-digits in inches, there was, in fact, a time where he faced a crabby fuck so big that not even the sixteen gallons of testosterone that pumped through his furry ass cheeks could crush this beastly crustacean's cackles.

So, y’know, he died. Then the next moment he's alive again. I dunno, fackin’ spawn point or some ish. But, ah, y’know, fuck it, Piss is a woman now. Submit your complaints anally. Yet, even after checking out that sweet new beaver, Piss was aware that she could not beat Captain Big…Ass…Claw…fuck you, I don't get paid to make these dumpster fires.

So, as things go, she started a-pondering with that new womanly brain and she thought about how good her new thighs looked in her Gucci loincloth before using what she chose to name common sense and went ahead to the nearby metaphor quarry, where she proceeded to pile them literary device fuckers on her back as she daydreamed about using every ounce of the metaphors she ordained, foaming at the mouth over the prospect of fucking yeeting that jabroni’s exoskeleton into atmospheres long since forgotten, only to go on ahead and get very moist and itchy while testing out that soon-to-be cavernous frontbutt.

But, y’know, best laid plans of shits n giggles oft go awry. Wazzat mean? She friggin’ drowned whist trying to cross the river, all those damn metaphors weighing her fine, toned, and significantly less hairy glutes down, not even coming close to bringing home the crab meat.

Last life. He’s aware of it, and as such, he plans to fuck shit up all proper-like. Thus, he took one metaphor and shoved it waaaay up that beastie’s booty, and then I don't fucking. I just…y’know…I wanted to do something on Aristotle’s virtue theory or the middle way, or y’know, whatever, but I'm sitting here now eating this pancake, and I'm like, yabba dabba doo, bitch. That's the show.

Can common houseflies absorb the THC in smoke?

I smoke a lot of weed indoors and I can noticeably see the smoky appearance of the room. Occasionally, I notice a fly that got in and is buzzing around. I got to thinking, could the fly absorb the lingering THC in the air and do flies have cannabinoid receptors? Not sure if they do. But anyhow, the THC lingering in the air could theoretically get flies high. Did you ever think of that? Flies are tiny little things so it would take much THC do get a fly high. Who knows, you could've gotten a bunch of flies stoned out of their minds and you didn't even know it.

Returning to weed after a long break makes me reflect on my past mistakes

Hello everyone,

I recently took a long break from smoking weed. Every time I take extended breaks and then smoke again, I start to deeply contemplate all the mistakes I’ve made while I was sober during the past few months.

I’m wondering if this is a common experience? In the last three years, I used to smoke a lot, but now I’ve cut back significantly. Over the past year, I’ve smoked maybe 15 times at most, yet every time I light up after a long pause, I get hit with these reflective thoughts.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on how I can start realizing and processing these things while I’m sober would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Why isn’t weed more accepted and embraced in southern states?

It honestly seems like it would be soooo perfectly compatible with the southern lifestyle…which is slow, friendly and chill. Like if South Carolina legalized weed…I’d totally consider moving there.
