Does it even have Pfhor in it…?

Sad wall of text, here’s some Orb to cheer you up

Is this the woke color ideology they’ve been pushing in the optical marxist indoctrination centers? “Color is a spectrum…?” ridiculous! God made two kinds of light: red and not red. Anything else is degeneracy.

Who knows / cares- it’s a meme stock. Has about as much relation to Tesla’s ability to sell cars as the price of any cryptocurrency has to its ability to be used as actual currency.

I believe his correct title is “Chaos God of Health and Human Services”

Teens have access to vastly more potent cannabis than their parents had at their age

Oh FFS. I’ve been hearing this same bullshit for the last 25 years and it’s still irrational Reefer Madness conservative fearmongering.

So what? If anything, more potent weed is less harmful because you are putting a smaller amount of burned plant material into your lungs to get the same effect.

It’s not like people just… consume one marijuana and however high that gets you, that’s what you’re going with today. No, you’re going to continue smoking until you get sufficiently stoned and then stop and put it out.

It doesn’t take long for anyone to figure out how high is too high and how much it takes to get there, and plan accordingly.

It might be a vape pen with 92% THC hash oil in it so you take a couple of sippy little puffs and get mildly buzzed and you’re fine with that. Or conversely you can pack up a handful of that leafy brown prohibition-era crap and do gravity bongs until you cough your lungs out, and get a lot higher, because that was your goal.

They sell those oil-soaked kif-encrusted joints here. You do not want to finish one in one sitting. The point of these isn’t to get insanely baked, it’s that one good hit will do it and you can put it out and save it in the glass jar it came in.

As others have explained already- if you have the kind of brain prone to psychosis, weed is likely to push you over the edge- and that’s likely to happen when you’re a teenager, because lots of people try it at that age- but something else would have triggered it a few years later. And yes it’s just universally worse for adolescent brains. It is already illegal, everywhere it’s legal, for people under 21, which is reasonable. But parents need to parent.

The idea that we can and should protect the kids who are predisposed to go schizo by keeping the available cannabis weak enough that no one can smoke enough of it to ever get really high is just absurd when you phrase it that way but that’s exactly what anyone pushing this “It’s so much more potent now!” pearl-cluching FUD is trying to sell you.

I have never played this game and don’t even really know what it is, but wouldn’t the obvious solution be to have the abandoned bases get eaten by sandworms?

The way I look at it, generation α and the next 5 generations are in a game of no-respin Russian roulette for who gets to be the ones to fight World War IV with sticks and stones.

I would like to see the linearally extrapolated third picture in this series

This is actually one of the most interesting and entertaining timelines.

There was only supposed to be enough source data to make it to 2012- and that was originally a very generous buffer, since a fraction of a percent of Earths last more than 10 years after both networked computers and nuclear weapons have been invented in-simulation.

So, the operators decided not to pull the plug and just let this one run its course.

As it extrapolates history farther and farther outside of the initial parameters, the simulator is cannibalizing itself with feedback and undergoing model collapse.

Evey time I can remember having to use that lever it was because of some fuck driving with their 1.21GW LED high-beams on right behind me, and therefore deserving a 🖕, which can conveniently also be used to toggle the mirror… Two birds with one stone. Either that’s not nearly as universal an experience as I’d hoped or all the Lemmy users who like to drive with their brights got triggered being called out- either way my post does not meet the high editorial standards of the showerthoughts community, so deleting it.

Potato salad is a legitimate foodstuff, however- in the United States it is unfortunately a gateway substance- leading to increasingly foamy forms of macaroni-celery salad, and ending ultimately in marshmallow grape walnut kool-hwip jello salad.

He made this beautiful sculpture of a marshmallow all by himself, but no one cared. 😢 Why don’t pictures like this ever trend?
