  • They are so fucking dumb. USPS vehicles are maybe the most perfect usecase for EV implementation. They’re typically shorter range, constantly stop-and-go, smaller and lighter than most modern cars, and a shitload of the existing fleet is like 50 years old and badly needs a refresh anyway. And now that the money has been spent on developing and introducing this great idea, they just want to trash it?

    How the fuck does anybody get away with calling Republicans fiscally responsible without getting their ass kicked? In my lifetime, every Republican president has fucked the economy and every Democrat president has unfucked it. The spiteful ratfuckery can’t be accepted anymore.







  • Having a trip sitter would be ideal, but isn’t fully necessary so long as you start small. Don’t take more than 2 grams (assuming you’re an average size adult male) and you’ll be fine. You’ll have some nausea which is normal, so don’t eat a ton or drink anything acidic or bubbly before. The part of your brain that gets tickled for psychedelic effects is either the same or next door to the nausea part of your brain, so just get through the first wave of tummy gymnastics and the rest is therapeutic meditation. Watch clouds, look at bugs in the grass, touch tree bark. Be in our natural world. Just be somewhere safe and comfortable where you don’t need to be concerned about being judged. Idk how people can enjoy it in a public setting lol. Or more often than like once per year.

    It’s been a while for me, but you bring things back with you from a trip. It helps you to tear yourself down so you can rebuild a little differently.


  • This is true. Teenage me only got snippets. I noticed the standardized metal road behemoths that people commanded at life-ending speeds, but otherwise just “plants pretty”.
    At 30+, I thought more about how I would interface with gods or aliens or both as an ambassador advocating for the continued survival of the species, and I saw that that’s a tough fucking sell at this point. I explored my own role as a person and came to understand that somewhere along the line, I’ve somehow transitioned from being a child to an unqualified adult, and now to an accomplished provider with notable lived experiences. As a result, I’ve started to aim to live up to that a little better.

    These people don’t experience the ego death necessary to significantly grow. Mushrooms teach you to confront uncomfortable truths about yourself, and with some humility you may have an opportunity to reconcile to some degree. It’s a tool, not a toy.




  • They’re so bad at it that they wind up liking media that is directly mocking them. They legit say things like “I liked Stephen Colbert better before he went woke. The Colbert Report was good back in the day.” They completely missed that Larry the Cable Guy is a character. They like Fight Club and The Wolf of Wall Street for exactly the wrong reasons.

    You have to be an extremely clueless dumbass to miss the very clear message behind RATM music, and yet they somehow still manage. They must have been sniffing glue while the teacher was going over analysis and annotations.
