Because your knowledge that certain drugs are bad is not stronger than the urge to conform. If your friends are doing it and you’re the only one not doing it, you’ll feel the urge to join them. Some people can resist that, a lot of people can’t.
And then when they try it, it feels really fuckin good, especially the first time. So good it’s life-changing, you might say.
Or hallucinogenic? Although if there were an easy-to-forage hallucinogen that looked like celery I’m pretty sure I’d know about it.
I do regard them with terror, but this isn’t the reason why.
Pretty sure this guy’s vibe is completely under the domain of Anger
We’re basically already at population plateau. Maybe a billion or so more to go. It could trend up beyond that, but not without radical social changes around the world.
It was originally about bottomless pits iirc (and yeah, the poster claimed an AI wrote it)
As an expert in technology all I ever see when I’m walking around places with technology is how fucking terrible it all is. It’s never wonderful.
Right, the distinction I’m making is this isn’t just “normalized” but actually the correct spelling. As in, if a newspaper editor saw it written as “drive-through” they would be obliged to correct it.
Tangentially, is “bastard” gendered? It feels like it’s always applied to men, so it seems gendered. And yet, the original meaning of the word “bastard”–someone born out of wedlock–doesn’t imply any kind of gender.
So it struck me as weird that this person would call themselves a bastard. nbd, just thought it was odd
On the one hand, a sign like this definitely did have enough room for the full spelling of “through”. There seems to be no reason to abbreviate it.
On the other hand, isn’t drive-thru just, like, its own noun now? Part of me thinks this was always spelled correctly.
Oglaf started off as a legit porn comic but then they figured out they’re actually geniuses at writing jokes. This is a great example; there’s no spoken punchline here, just his face.
I’m not from Edmonton so this is the first time I’m seeing this billboard but I’d just like to say, it’s a very bad billboard.
From a distance the toasted bread looks like he has poop on his hands?
Oh, that’s cool, I respect that.
Anyone know offhand their stance on jackbooted thugs kicking in the doors of people who write emulation software and sending them to prison? Just trying to get a pulse on that
Well another medieval thing we’re bringing back is not learning history
Fucking guillotines already
OK I also briefly thought “our problem” but I’m actually PRETTY CONCERNED about the words “only goal” when I really think about it? “Only”, as in “Yeah, eating human corpses is definitely ONE thing we’re shooting for, but come on guys, there’s lots of applications”
i dare you not to get scared or cum

I will!
The majority of people that have used meth or crack are fine.
Now, don’t get me wrong: meth is fantastically addictive. It’s the most physically addictive drug there is, as far as I’m aware. And the fantastically high addiction rate for first-time users of meth is: roughly 30%.
70% of people who try the most addictive drug in the world don’t get addicted, and go on to do other things like play tennis or do their taxes or switch to weed instead.
