  Also there are other ways to poke that side of brain. Most of the good abstract art I write was under sleep derivation.

  Then again, I mainly write code, but it was still up to interpretation what that snippet is even supposed to do.

    I noticed the same, when tired my brain take shortcuts and is far better at fast solving, but I lack the long view in this state. Brains are amazingly interesting.

    I write my best when I’m depressed. I’m okay with finding alternative routes for that, though weed isn’t one of them. I find weed helps me when I’m doing visual art, but when writing? Weed practically renders me incapable.

    I now understand why writers’ usual substances of choice are alcohol and caffeine.

        Except alcohol, that doesn’t make pretty code.

  also shakespeare is incredibly specific. the example I like to use is the famous

  “Friends, Romans, Countrymen, Lend me your ears!”

  Which takes place in a crowded marketplace.

  Count the syllables: 1 (friends), 2, (romans), 3 (countrymen), 4 (lend me your ears)

  it’s a line in which the meter matches the intent

  Bill will also often add an eleventh unstressed syllable to his dialogue lines if he wants a character to seem vulnerable or weak, indicating they have fallen off meter because of their inner

  very occasionally he does an eleventh STRESSED syllable when a character is being especially dominating and murderous.

  The other famous examples is when a peasant or very low status character speaks, it won’t be in verse at all, but plain prose.

  Dépend, if you are ADHD canabis is an amazing way to increase the symptom and trigger an hyperfocus while going at 200% on all directions, great for a créativity boost. Whole reducing canabis and increasing active plant like caféine help reduce the symptom and make it easy to speak to neuro-typical. May be he had ADD or ADHD and used this to trigger what was called transe.

    THC reacts strangely with my ADHD, It triggers some sort of dysphoria where I end up frustrated and angry that my brain/body isnt acting the way I want it to respond .

      I have had different experiences with smoking (which I dropped entirely) vs gummies. Gummies (any edible really) tznd to take effect very slowly over the course of an hour and the high is much more calm than any joint I ever smoked. It lends itself well to creative sessions : as long as I’m able to get started, I don’t stop easily.

      Interesting that the effects are so different for each brain. When smoking I am not able to filter as well, I dunno of the filtering part slow or the idea part of my brain go faster. It make me have pint of vue different of mine on subjects. Which is interesting.

        For me it opens up possibilities that my sober brain doesn’t consider because my sober brain filters and edits things based on assumptions. So i sometimes miss details when sober because my subconscious brain dismissed those details as unimportant. Most of the time, that filtering process is a positive part of decision-making. I should be ignoring certain variables because knowledge and experience identified those details as a waste of time. However, on weed, i consider things i wouldn’t have considered because that filtering process is lessened. So most of my stoned thoughts are worthless, but every once in a while i realize something that i was missing because my brain was ignoring that important detail when sober. It’s great when I haven’t been able to figure out that day’s Wordle…or i realize why someone was pissed at me.

        That’s actually somewhat similar to the piece that gives me dysphoria! It’s like THC makes my body and brain operate at different speeds which I find incredibly frustrating.

    so you’re saying i should stop drinking coffee when I wake up and instead just smoke a bowl? I feel like I’m not as creative as I used to be, and my drug of choice has been coffee for the past 15 years…

      Prior to transitioning I always said the two substances by brain required to function were cannabis and either caffeine or adderal, stimulant+weed kept me functioning tolerably even when I really didn’t feel like it. Now estradiol is on the list too lol

      I dunno, I am no expert, it work for me. I usually smoke the day I remote work and take coffee the days I work in the office. Do what work for you ;)

  This is wrong. You cannot imagine what you cannot imagine. Psychedelics definitely allow you to imagine what you previously could not.
