If you wanna go hard, shrooms, acid, mdma, ketamine are the ones you want.

Take them seriously, they’re powerful. Be in a relatively good headspace, have someone you trust with your life to watch over you the whole time. I don’t know if you need a sitter for mdma.

Don’t try to control what happens. Shrooms and acid specifically are like one giant alien rollercoaster teaching you the lesson, “when you try to be in control, life is hell, when you go along for the ride, it’s bliss”. They do that by making it hell the second you attempt to exert your will on the trip, and sending you into bliss when you go with it.

Stop censoring fucking like a cunty assdick shitbitch, please and thank you.

Yeah if a bug or a hardware failure can make me see nightmare spiders everywhere or send a signal to my pain centers, that’s a permanent no.

It probably helps in one way and harms in another to say: it feels that way because it is that way.

It’s at least nice to know you’re onto something. You’re seeing what’s there. Your head is screwed on straight! Yay!

The situation still sucks, but a partial victory is a partial victory.

Somebody definitely needs to make a frontend that makes it smooth.

Bad idea. Bluesky’s just gonna end up like Twitter.

The Fediverse could get shitty in new ways too, but it can’t get Elon’d. Bluesky eventually will. The future is on the Fediverse. All we’re doing is delaying that future by swapping one corporation for another.

Though maybe that future needs to be delayed, because the Fediverse needs to lose its “yeah our app can do that thing you want, just edit a few variables in the source code”-style github energy.

Mastodon is ultimately usable, because I figured it out, but it should have been easier, and needs to get easier. Maybe it has the rise and fall of bluesky to figure that out.

New is the old new ❤️

Anybody in the trump cabinet who does not present video proof of them raping a child or committing hate crimes while doing nazi salutes is going to be prosecuted for disloyalty.

It’s the trump white house resume.

I love this.

Formerly known as? It’s still twitter.

Quit saying objectively stupid shit that will get people killed. Jesus Christ.

This isn’t an opinion, it’s a hazard.

“I think that allowing my child to go play in traffic really isn’t that bad”. Look if your stupid ass commits suicide by raw milk, fine, but there are people who don’t know all the facts who might listen to you, and you might be directly responsible for getting the idea into their heads that, when acted upon, kills them. That’s close enough to murder by any sensible ethical standard.

Quit it.

The People’s CDC, much like the factory, must grow.

Nothing in that hill article involves sucking up to trump.

He says Rubio’s not the worst pick. Which is true.

Those things aren’t emotional states.

Slick.

No such thing a self-defense for a walking rape threat.

Little bitey chihuahua trying to look tough.

That’s what enshittification is. Make something good, draw people in, they make your service a part of their lives, and then you fuck them in the ass.

The best situation is giving money to a company that’s not shitty. The second best situation is piracy. The third best situation is letting yourself get fucked over. It’s really up to the companies whether or not we have the best situation. It’s up to all of us to have the basic dignity to not get screwed over by the worst option, and to choose the second one when they try.

He gets two terms, whether they’re split up or not. This is his last term by law.

He’s probably just going to stay anyway, because Republicans have managed to infect government with the kinds of losers who would back something like that.

*in yet another blow to humankind.

Keep up the gotchas, just pair them with emphasis on how weak and ineffectual they are. Both are required. One is insufficient.
