Just careful of their political videos, cause they are often poorly reasoned neoliberal propaganda, albiet with excellent production value.

A user who decides to try heroin for fun...
A Reddit classic
What's the worst that could happen?
Oh this
As someone who has gone through gestures vaguely uhhh bad shit
I can’t tell you how much I fucking hate “What’s the worst that could happen?”. Whenever someone says that I wanna slap em 😂
You should do it. Whats the worst that could happen?!
Read a similar thread on a forum, that kid died from od eventually. Couldn’t get straight.
Heroin, not even once
wow I'm happy to see that the guy is alive and apparently got himself clean
I remember reading that years ago; I don't remember how recent it was at the time, but the story went around and he he was offline for longer and longer and no one was sure what had ultimately happened
That was an interesting rabbit hole to say the least...
had not heard of this. what a wild ride
had not heard of this. what a wild ride
Stims do be like that tho
As someone who spent the better part of my life with undiagnosed ADHD, it do be. Although, since I started from a position of recreational use, it is hard to find that line between therapeutic and fun.
Let the scientists and nerds worry about it. In the meantime, have fun with therapy!
I have an aquaintance who is a recovered method user who says that's probably they way they would want to die, like if they were on their deathbed they'd want to just shoot up and die in bliss or something like that
Those fucking actors need to get their shit together.
I've trained in method and gaulier clown and honestly prefer clown and clowns to method actors
Haha that took me a while to figure out what you meant
I figured it would be a long shot that my pun would be caught.
I don't see how it's weird, hypocritical, disingenuous, or in any other way puzzling that different individual people think differently.
They're also just different drugs
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
Unfuck Lemmy and Unfuck Decentralization
Different personalities desire different things. To enjoy and want to do heroin, you have to want to suppress the self and be fine with doing nothing. To enjoy and want to do meth, you have to be very into performing, usually capitalism, work, doing things, and be fine sacrificing your health to meth to do so. These are wildly different personalities and desires, so both of their PoVs make total sense
The first sentence sounds a lot like me with weed. It didn't help anything, but it made me complacent about not doing anything because of my depression.
Well, that's a bit of a lie. Because of weed I was able to complete the PT for my torn labrum surgery in half the time the surgeon expected. I think I only had to go to like 6 PT sessions before the therapist told me I didn't need to show up anymore.
It's the effect weed has on fat soluble vitamins, esp bc it is estrogenic (meaning it encourages your body to find more fat soluble vitamins and store more of them). Vitamin k1 (which has to be balanced w vitamin e) helps with healing a LOT.
It also acts as an anti-inflammatory agent.
Yes because it helps people absorb more vitamin e through the estrogenic/fat storage properties. Vitamin e is anti-inflammatory

Who tf does heroin? Try fent!
Blow your monthly check on heroin and get high a couple times, or buy fent and get high a bunch of times while having money left over for beer and weed. It's economical!
This clearly shows how fent was made to emancipate the lower class
Fent is the true opiate of the masses
You only have money for more fent eventually though.
I guess these people haven’t watched Breaking Bad.
Boobookkittyfuck713…?
Would've been icing on the cake had it been the same poster for both of those. lol
