I'm literally jealous of normies. I want to turn my brain off and care about pointless shit 24/7.

[-] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 57 points 4 days ago

They have it worse. They are still mad about all the shit happening, but they don't understand why it happens or what can be done to fix it.

[-] woodenghost@hexbear.net 35 points 4 days ago

Exactly. They just stumble around aimlessly and confused, occasionally falling for a corrupt politician or a crypto scam or whatever and being lead down a metaphorical cliff before emerging again even more confused and more angry.

nah they're just as mad about their pointless shit as we are about things that matter. believe it or not they have it worse

sorry weed makes you anxious bc that's what I use weed for

[-] miz@hexbear.net 17 points 4 days ago

me, holding a cartoonishly large mallet labelled "THC"

[-] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 13 points 4 days ago

The problem is god damn tolerance builds up so damn quick and my little lungs can't handle this shit anymore, I'm smoking as much as I can and hardly getting high i'm starting to question if it's worth all the black stuff i cough up

[-] space_comrade@hexbear.net 11 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Get one of those dry herb vaporizers, you'll use up less weed and get more high and it's way easier on the lungs.

can you switch to dabbing and/or vaping? dabbing will shove aside your tolerance and laugh

[-] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 11 points 4 days ago

This is not true, I used to chain dabs like a mfer. I could easily go through a gram of wax a day when I was smoking. To be fair I also got a gram for like $3 so I didn't have to hold myself back for cost reasons

[-] miz@hexbear.net 7 points 4 days ago

your non-dab tolerance. don't think there's much that can shove aside dab tolerance except maybe a heroic dose of edibles

it's really absolutely fucked up that there's this kick ass drug that doesn't kill you but your body is REALLY GOOD at building tolerance to it, just keeps cramming more and more cannabinoid receptors everywhere. what the fuck

if nerds were so smart they'd invent a drug that stops that from happening

It's called LSD

What I really need to do is start growing it so I'm not spending a shitload every month, then start vaping it and using the ABV bud/all the excess (since let's be real, two productive plants would be enough for me to smoke for a year) to make edibles or tinctures. But i've been out of work all summer so I kinda owe my partner a lot of money (not that she's been keeping track) so idk when I'll feel comfortable buying the seeds and shit I'll need. It's some real chicken n the egg shit though since my weed smoking is the primary cost preventing me from affording to grow it

I just want to want to grill, for chrissake

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 16 points 4 days ago

Being aware of the actual problems in the world has not improved my life one bit. I'm far more hopeless then before. Idk what these replies are saying, ignorance was better. That's why people choose it.

[-] OrionsMask@hexbear.net 15 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I'm far more hopeless than before too but I still choose this over being some clueless little NPC. Like what would you rather be doing? Mindlessly gobbling down treats with no idea of the ramifications? Being 'apolitical'? Do you really want to be the type of person who, when they tell you Hamas is just as bad as Israel, you fucking believe them? I hate those people and believe the world would be a better place if we had less of them. If there were more people who cared and less people who were entirely self absorbed in their little lives, we could make a difference. The numbers normies have coupled with how easily manipulated they are is what makes things hopeless for us, they are poison.

would you rather think world hunger can't be fixed? that the only thing we can do against the trump administration is vote in 2028? that for the rest of our lives we'll have to deal with crisis after crisis of overproduction, underproduction, mortgage-backed securities, climate change? at least the communists know a better world is possible.

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 8 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Please explain to me how we can avoid dealing with climate change for the rest of our lives. That was the primary issue I was think of when posting and by far the most hopeless, imo.

capitalism cannot handle climate change. we will keep drilling until there's nothing left to drill. socialism can at least avoid the worst of it. a better world is out there

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Totally agree with you that capitalism can't.

There is enough GHG in the atmosphere right now to warm the earth to over 4c above preindustrial. That is not taking into account tipping points. We will be dealing with the effects of climate change forever. I don't know what you envision avoiding the worst of it meaning, but even the best case miracle scenario is horrifying.

i'm not saying that under socialism, we'll all be holding hands singing kumbaya and the seas will go back to where they were. i'm just saying that we can create a world where we can stop shitting carbon into the air

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 3 points 4 days ago

I agree. China plans to stop by 2060. I'm saying even if we stopped right now we are going to deal with crisis after crisis.

[first domino] wow that animal is smart

[last domino] wow Stalin made some good points and I'm holding a gun?

Neurodivergent people: first time?

[-] mortemtyrannis@lemmy.ml 22 points 4 days ago

What do you mean people don’t just tell you what they are thinking but instead expect you to just know based off of unspoken social cues?

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 29 points 5 days ago

Me, when I can't scour the Earth with a flaming sword: :pain:
