I think that the nature of Lemmy attracts people who are drawn to seek out new experiences and alternative lifestyles, so it’s less that psychs are widely popular and more this community has a higher percentage of users. That said, I don’t know anybody that does acid on the regular anymore, it was pretty uncommon when I was a teen, and the people who I know who like to trip (usually hippies, ravers, and punks) are typically doing shrooms. Might also be because I live in shroom country so they’re easy to find and cheap if you have to buy them. Gotta say, a few days in the middle of the backcountry with a dose it nice, I can’t imagine doing it and going to the bar on a weekend.

For me it would really depend on the context.

I had an abusive mother and self-harmed, a lot. By my teenage years I was bouncing back and forth between self-harm and realizing I was not insane, my mom was an abuser, and starting to find adults and peers who would listen to me and recognize it. I also discovered I could channel my feelings through writing and art, that catharsis of expressing my feelings in a healthy was rather than just turning them back on myself.

As an adult, is it worth noting when a young person starts expressing themselves like that; absolutely. Shit’s rough, it can get overwhelming, and a lot of young people cut their journey short intentionally or recklessly trying to deal with it. Sometimes it’s just a young person piercing the veil and figuring out the world isn’t all it’s cracked up to be and venting their disillusion. Other times it’s hopelessness. As an adult I’d like to think I could figure out which it is; commiserate with a youth about the bullshit but have the wisdom to know when to know when to intervene.

No, he’s correct. Jesus directly referenced what we know as Easter traditions in the Bible:

“While they were eating, Jesus took a box of Peeps, and when he had given thanks, he broke them apart and gave them to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; they’re honestly not that bad.”

You bastards!

Careful making friends in the garden princess.

The heroes finds lich Jesus’ stash of nails, but only one is the true phylactery. The boldest knight smites that which he believes it to be, but nothing happens. Lich Jesus grins wickedly and incinerates the knight with a blast of unholy fire. He glances coyly at the other heroes, “He chose… poorly.”

Or in an (Italian) lake house.

We could bring back the elegance and pageantry of casting them off a cliff as tribute to Poseidon. Maybe ask him to cool down oceanic temperatures a little bit? Could actually work. Not because Poseidon is real, but because we’re eliminating some of the top contributors to climate change.

We all know he got hospitalized this weekend. I’m expecting a press conference to announce he died Friday but miraculously came back this morning. His fanbase will eat it up.

What if the idea that the Grail grants eternal life is a deliberate spin by the Church to turn it into a holy relic, when it’s true nature is that it is lich Jesus’ phylactery? From King Arthur to the Knights Templar, the quest for the Grail has been dedicated warriors seeking to eradicate his source of seeming eternal life. And it can only be destroyed with the weapon that destroyed his first corporeal form, the Spear of Destiny.

Can confirm. Watched a queer, middle aged former UCLA linebacker bash the shit-talking cowboy half his age’s face into a patio guardrail. There were teeth left behind as cowboy got drug off unconscious by his homies.

Someday paleontologists will discover doomer memes from the Pleistocene, the Cretaceous, the Permian, the Devonian, and the Ordovician all predicting the same thing: “this is it, the end!”.

The structure of this roof cap is exactly like the kind of telemetry tracker that NASA uses to identify dead pulsars in deep space. Cold-riveted girders…with cores of pure selenium.

Dog dad, but my dude has to poke his head behind the curtain about every three minutes just to verify I did get flushed down the drain. My gal patiently waits for me to finish drying off because apparently rolling on the damp towel is great fun.

This kind of gift is why Jean cucks Scott for Logan.

Validating that I was being abused. Everybody else either didn’t want to talk about it, told me I was the problem, or justified it. I had become self-destructive because I didn’t know what I was. Was I crazy? I was pretty sure i was the victim, but maybe I had brought it on myself. Maybe it was in my head. Maybe what was happening was normal and my expectations were off. Being told what was happening was indeed what I thought was going on and to build a support network to get out was life-changing. I mean, I’m still a fucking mess, but less of one. Probably need to fix my sleep schedule.

Well isn’t it your lucky day! In fact it was Jim Carrey.

Hey now, American police are very well educated on topics like escalation, lethal force, circumventing civil rights, coercing confessions, and the fine line between entrapment and entrapment that is entrapment but not technically entrapment so it can’t be dismissed. Also extremely well educated on the importance of “see something, say nothing” about your fellow officers and making sure everyone involved has the same story.
