Good point. And we did manage to elect a Black man by a veritable landslide (twice). Maybe it’s just anecdotal evidence or the particular flavor of MAGA in my area.

I don’t know this particular asshole, but IME, the racism is typically more important than the misogyny for MAGA-types (but it’s a pretty tight race)

And you can see the wear on the treads. plus the handrail mount in the top left would be at a very inconvenient height if we were looking from the bottom up

Most of these would make pretty great flash tattoos

Edit: after looking at them again, I think that’s exactly what they are

According to the Psychonautwiki on shrooms (which is fairly reliable in my experience), anything over 50mg of psilocybin is a “heavy” dose. Trouble is, unless you can get your shrooms from a reliable source, guessing the psilocybin content is pretty tricky. The one time I intentionally did a pretty heavy trip on shrooms, it was something like a quarter ounce of dried shrooms, but another time I just had a nibble on one for laughs while drinking with my buddies and it wound up being pretty substantial. If they’re fresh instead of dried or just a different strain or batch, it’s all pretty up in the air, so my advice is to always be ready for a heavy trip unless you’ve already had some experience with that particular batch.

Yeah, that seemed needlessly confusing to me too.

Many, if not most, modern satanists are atheistic satanists. Satan is merely a convenient bit of Judeo-Christian mythology/imagery used to irritate Christians.

While I hesitate to recommend The Satanic Temple due to the actions of one of the founders, their “7 Fundamental Tenets” are a pretty great basis for an atheistic worldview.

Edit: normally, I’d link some resources, but it’s late, I’m on mobile, and search engines exist, so… Sorry, not sorry.

Goddamnit, as much as I love this, as a lifelong Giants fan, I hate that these stories make me feel positive feelings about the Dodgers

I think it’s even money that Trump tries it.

Considering he is already illegally deporting people and illegally trying to revoke birthright citizenship, you are more optimistic than I.

Getting a tech for your first win, especially in a match where your team got crushed is a big deal, especially for a new athlete. I wouldn’t call anything about that a participation trophy.

In fact, one of my proudest memories as a HS wrestler was losing by one in a dual meet against our rivals where the coaches asked me to wrestle up two weight classes and my goal was “don’t get teched or pinned.” I lost, but I did my part and the team won (so the inverse of your sitch). I would say that an individual win and team loss or an individual loss but team win are both worth celebrating. That’s one of my favorite things about wrestling is that you can have a good day regardless of who the team is facing or how everyone else does.

The political prints about Spain and Spanish politics are particularly interesting to me

This is legit why people started to believe in Hell

This, and monotheism. You can’t have an omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent deity if there’s observable evil in the world unless “it’s all part of God’s plan,” and/or “people reap what they sow”

Respectfully.

I dunno, I think that’s part of the magic of the Black Paintings. To me, what makes them truly unsettling (in the best way) is the fact that he painted them exclusively for his own desire and that we’re limited to guessing the subject matter (which, although ambiguous, was undoubtedly dark).

I assumed, but Poe’s Law and, well, you know, people are really fucking classist and stupid

I think you dropped this: /s

I GOT SOMETHING TO PUT IN YOU!

AT THE GAY BAR, GAY BAR, GAY BAR!

Depends on your town. I live in a small tourist town with one cinema and they only play the biggest hits, focusing on the lowest common denominator. I mean, I’m not even sure they screened Sinners, but they definitely played The Minecraft Movie in 4 (out of 14) theaters for months. If I want to go to a different cinema, I have to drive 45 minutes to get to the next town (where the selection still sucks, but at least they’ve got more screens) or 75 min to get to the closest independent theater.

Sorry, I edited my comment on mobile so I couldn’t see your comment directly and I wasn’t sure if it was you or the person above you that said that.

Methamphetamine is still prescribed for ADHD in extreme cases. “Street meth” is exactly the same but with more impurities (assuming it hasn’t been cut with other drugs like fentanyl). It would be much worse for you because of all the harmful/carcinogenic impurities, but not any more addictive or euphoric (again, assuming it’s not cut with opiates)

edit: This is assuming, like the other commenter mentioned, that you stick to taking it orally. As soon as you change the route of administration to bypass the liver on its first trip through the blood stream (meaning literally any other RoA), both the “rush” and addictive potential get much larger.
