A lot of the older psychiatrist I know seem rather unwell. Like not unstable, but not well. So I don’t wonder that one eventually snapped.
The younger ones, the ones okay with cannabis, seem like they don’t have as much issues. But it might just be lack of being worn down who knows.

Oh. Sorry about that, I was rather high.
- Comment on Anon makes weed eggs 1 day ago:
It doesn’t really matter if it’s decarboxylated or not, your liver will do that for you. It’s just that doing it before ingesting it makes it come on a lot faster and stronger. Usually hash / concentrates is not decarboxylated. The heat from smoking will do that and if you want to eat hash, well, hash is so much stronger than weed and mostly cannabinoids compared to the surface area of buds, so eating it will still work rather well.
We ate our hash at the airport in Amsterdam and then I had forgot a 0.3 nug in my hoodie pocket and it was found in the check, no problem in Amsterdam, they’re chill as fuck, but when we got back to Finland (flight takes a few hours) I was kinda high and the first thing that met me coming off the plane was a barking dog and customs agents yelling. I was quite alarmed but then quickly disarmed when I saw my friend (he got off a bit earlier as my seat was further back) joking around with a customs agent.
They were pretty intense and checked us. Because I had had 0.3grams of weed in Amsterdam. God damn bored out of their minds they are, treating me like some sort of massive smuggler for something that’s barely enough for a J.
Anyway, eating concentrates/hash works

Does sugar “bind” with water when you put some sugar in a glass of water?
No. It dissolves in it, but it doesn’t go away or anything.
It’s much the same with cannabinoids and oils.
Chocolate is an excellent thing to mix weed with because chocolate is fatty.
- Comment on Anon makes weed eggs 1 day ago:
I think chocolate suits coffee better than butter tbh.

“They’re making us CEO’s afraid, terrified even, so he’s clearly a terrorist. The implication that the working class could actually fight back against the systemic oppression we inflict on them? That’s horrifying. We can’t allow them to believe they could ever fight back. Make an example of this person.”

They just call it “interrogation.”
(I just felt I had to add the “dark universe” because here in ours he’s comparatively pretty fucking alright when compared to the current leadership of the states. I criticised the US government back in his day as well, but the president isn’t a magical dictator and the longer it goes the more I miss him.)
- Comment on how do I become the dullest, most boring coworker so this needy man leaves me alone? 2 days ago:
I’m torn because I want to tell him to leave me alone, that I don’t care about his life, but considering the ‘offense’ this seems too much and knowing me I’d immediately regret it and feel bad about it.
So instead you’ll like youre ruder than you are, hoping he will eventually get it.
You don’t think weeks of having to do this is making you feel worse than perhaps one night of feeling a bit sorry after telling him straight on?
And I know he will appreciate it eventually if the direct reaction isn’t such. You will finally make sense to him. If you’re being rude, ignoring him, why don’t you understand that might make him want to bring you to a normal level of social contact. That he feels he’s done something wrong by just being a chatty person.
Maybe just tell him you’re sorry but you’re not as chatty as him and would like to focus.
And yes, I have also done that to a worker. Told her I’m there to work, not to make friends. Kinda cold? I don’t think so. Colleagues, not friends. Co-employees can be friends but don’t need to.

- Comment on Why did people in the 90s/early 00s say that the internet "couldn't be taken down"? 3 days ago:
This has obviously been proven false with the Great Firewall of China, and of Russia’s latest attempts of completely disconnecting from the global internet.
Not it hasn’t. Pretty much the only country which manages it is NK, and that’s because they have 100% control of their citizens.
With TOR and mesh networking, some sort of a system will remain no matters who tries what. The level or communication that was extremely centralised and possibly censored were things before the 80’s. After that, you could just host your own site online and “hide the ip” (not really tho but hosting your things in another country was sort of an equivalent). So information starred glowing much mire freely.
And becsuse all these techs exist, communication will ever regress to such a state that it was in.
So an exaggeration, sort of. Depending on how you define “internet”.

Ah, more highroading and ad hominem.
It’s okay, it’s just a silly thing on a forum. No-one cares you were wrong.

You wanted a fix of “look what an expert I am”, while ignoring the fact that you were wrong the whole time.
Birds can not overpower humans. They can pose dangers to people who don’t want to harm the birds, but if a human does want to harm a bird, the human wins. Doesn’t really matter which bird and which human, if you stipulate an adult human.
Have there been deaths related to birds? Yes. Can they pose risks, even severe ones, like, say, through sickness? Yes.
Was that the discussion? No.
You’re the contrarian here, my friend. I’m just agreeing with the earlier guy who said what is a very clear fact; birds can’t overpower humans.
You came in linking an article which I then read, quoted, and then you started backpedaling and now you’re accusing me of being a contrarian because I called you out on your contrarian argument which isn’t even supported by the thing you linked or any supposed experience you have.
Hope you got your fix of highroading. Enjoy your day! Think positive thoughts and don’t dwell on this massive L you took! :))
- Comment on how badly could a pelican fuck me up in a fight? 5 days ago:
I think youre being a condescending prick.
Sure, one might not kill you
My point exactly, mister bird expert.
someone can definitely get very injured or die because they got knocked over and hit their head or whatever
That can happen literally anywhere, anytime, to anyone, with no influence from any sort of avian.
- Comment on how badly could a pelican fuck me up in a fight? 5 days ago:
Geese and swan don’t have anything sharp, and I’m sure had you wanted to, you could’ve grabbed the cock by the neck and wrung it without it being able to actually kill you.
Annoying and perhaps even need medical attention for scratches? Yeah. KILL YOU?
Nah.
- Comment on how badly could a pelican fuck me up in a fight? 6 days ago:
Realistically, if that person had no regard for the bird, they could’ve just grabbed it and strung it’s neck.
“Maybe he didn’t want to hurt the animal,” Hensley’s father-in-law, George Koutsogiannis, told the Sun-Times. “Maybe he didn’t fight back enough when the swan attacked him…I can’t understand how this was possible.”
A single swan can’t actually physically overpower a person, but people can panic and make bad choices, especially when in water and confronted with aggressively wildlife.
- Comment on Puberty blockers to be banned indefinitely for under-18s across UK 1 week ago:
Of course you’re one of the “my ignorance is worth as much as your facts” people.
YOU don’t have an opinion that you’ve formed yourself. You’ve passively ingested ultra simplistic right wing rhetoric, because taking the time to actually understand the subject would mean you understand it and if you understood it you’d accept it because you’d know it’s know what that garbage rhetoric makes it out be.
But no. You can’t simply spend a few minutes on Wikipedia reading about it. You probably sat there writing that reply for 20 minutes, which you could’ve spent actually reading the Wikipedia article on the subject to understand why no-one agrees with “your opinion.”

Sex isn’t gender and puberty blockers don’t cause irreversible damage.
You’re a shit person who’s spewing other people’s opinions and thus hate, because you’re too intellectually lazy to read about these things to grasp the even the basic concepts being discussed.
So please refrain from going around calling people delusional until you spend at least a single minute reading up on what you pretend to understand.
There’s a reason the term “transgender” is used over “transsexual”.

Now that I think of it, yeah, lots movies just have a shower head coming out of the wall. That’s sort of dumb.

- Comment on Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey 1 week ago:
Well, 25-30. But the older ladies at the dispatch smoked weed as well. Well few of them did. One liked opiates. Most drank.
I don’t work there anymore, but it’s somewhat complicated logistics. You arrange school rides for kids and patient rides to hospitals and have to make sure people aren’t late for their planes and trains leaving in the morning.
It’s just that for the first several hours, it’d be every calm during the night. Sometime around 4am people start leaving for trains, buses, planes. Then around 5-6 you have people going to hospitals. Sometimes they’re disabled and need a taxi that can fit a stretcher. Then it’s the kids after that.
But like some people like caffeine aa they feel they need more energy to perk up. It’s the other way around for me.
But yeah thanks though it was fun. I was kinda pissed during corona when they finally took remote work as my home workstation is far superior to what they were when I worked there, and I kept actually using a team viewer connection back then as well (~2012) so could’ve easily done the work from my home.
And yes you’d might wonder what sort of company allows an employee to install remote control software on their computers?
A small company with a large turnover which never understood their dispatch center or technology properly.
But like if you made a poll on some programming community here on how many of them work while high…?
I know softwares see developers in rather esteemed positions who smoke every day. Not all day necessarily but
- Comment on Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey 1 week ago:
I’ve been high in most jobs I had, every now and then at least.
Not when driving a taxi, but we used to get insanely high for the night shifts at the taxi dispatch call centre where I also worked with the younger coworkers (<35) I had. As long as you get the necessary shit done, why’d anyone care? The night shifts were boring as fuck, you’d have like a few to a few dozen calls an hour. Meaning that mostly you’re just having to browse the web while waiting.
And Finns genuinely couldn’t even tell when I’m high as balls, the willfull ignorance in Finnish social interaction is quite strong.

The stoner dudes high as balls 247 who don’t give a shit and are not stressed a bit: :DDD
- Comment on Memories of a bygone era 1 week ago:
I can see it being more responsive yes, and all the other benefits he mentions as well.
It’s just such a different way of controlling the aim of your character that my brain refuses to believe it’s any good. I’ve seen some gamers going with one of those actually large trackballs (whereas the one I was thinking about was like a huge ergonomic mouse which had a trackball on top of it. Not tiny, but not massive and you only used your thumb to move it.
If you use one of those massive ones you can use your entire hand on, then where’d you click? Like if you don’t click, just aim, then the other hand has to do moving and shooting, and in games like deadlock you’re already kinda full with things you have to manage on kb.
But yeah I def see your point, thinking of like early 2000’s optical mice. I just a few months ago bought the first wireless mouse for like 20 years. I didn’t trust their speed in gaming (even though I managed to game with the wireless one 20 years ago as well.)
It’s just it’d take so much getting used to. Like in League I’m jealous of the people who started playing using custom key binds and moving the camera from the keyboard. I think it just is objectively better (because you don’t need to take your cursor away from the enemy to move your screem, etc), but I’m just getting to such an age that I can’t be bothered to learn a completely new control scheme to replace one I be used for more than 10 years.
- Comment on Memories of a bygone era 1 week ago:
You make good points and it’s very rational, but for some reason, having used an optical mouse for most of my life but also knowing what a trackball is like (but just not being used to one, it accounting for like 0.005% of my mouse usage or something), I just…
