Nah, I never got the mirror thing. Was tripping alone on my first ever trip. It was the realization that, hey, “this technically only lasts a few hours(8-12) so eventually it’ll end lol” that brought me out of that potentially bad(is any trip truly bad lol) trip. Also, for anyone still reading this, cannabis can help as well.

I will say this though, if you feel a bad trip coming, you have to surrender to it. Surrender to the fact that you are tripping balls, and that it’s is a finite experience, and that you’ll be ok. You won’t get in trouble, you won’t become crazy, and if you do? Fuck it we ball.

I suggest listening to some Terence Mckenna talks before tripping. Also, surrender to the shroom if needed. It’ll help.

Reminds me of the Theresienstadt Ghetto: https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theresienstadt_Ghetto

I think most people know about her through her fox, Finnegan the Fox

I think what you’re talking about about are social “networking” sites, vs social “media”. You could also say that it’s a spectrum, some sites are more social media and others more networking.

FUCK

I think it’s usually a bunch of posts on sports subreddita right? And then a few other things too.

Can’t judge distance anymore either.

There’s a meme out there that goes something along the line of “Nothing Ever Happens”. This line of thinking is poison, as it doesn’t take into account incrementalism. The fall into fascism isn’t a single large step, it’s many small steps until one day you’ve realized that you’re no longer in the same place that you were, and that now, you’re lost.

Btw, I wouldn’t call what’s happening in LA a “riot”. What’s happening in LA are protests.

I’m just hoping they didn’t bring their phones. Btw, if you go to a protest, don’t bring your smartphone.

I would recommend getting armed if this were to happen…just in case.

This would be my response: “Oh wow! That’s so cool, I didn’t know Casio made watches that expensive!”

Yeah I was like, “In danger of? Bro it’s already happening”.

Ehh, when it comes to sleep, it probably isn’t so much the screens, as it is the aforementioned back pain and anxiety. The obligatory caffeine taken late at night to stay up and work more and the optional nicotine vape or zyn probably doesn’t help either.

Sigh…at least Apple is getting screwed over though. They’ve been impeding right to repair for a long time, perhaps their karmic debt is finally catching up to them.

I mean, you could probably solve this shit by restricting the types of phones used to dumb phones. Phones only capable of texting and calls. Perhaps some basic access to school websites and Wikipedia too. Everything else default blacklisted.

From what I’ve heard, there are “Japanese Nationals” only spaces. But there are also many (if hazard to guess a majority of these locations) places that, due to their lack of English skills, put signs that mean to them “Japanese language only”, that is to say, they the proprietors of said location can only speak and write in Japanese, and therefore if you try to speak to them in your language, will not likely be able to service you properly. Some of these places will try their best to service you and let you in as well. Granted there are also places that will deny service if you don’t speak any Japanese, and that is ridiculous, but I’d like to think those places are few and far between as well.

I’m surprised armed plainclothes and or tactically dressed leftist groups, who’s goal is to specifically protect accused immigrants, haven’t popped up.
