I bought stim and haven’t slept in three days. What’s the next step?

Capitalism is when all caps

Have you tried turning the moon off and on again?

Kinda sounds like they’re describing GHB in the article, which leaves most people without a hangover and has often been described as “getting drunk without alcohol”.

Sythehol sounds like a neat concept but I personally don’t think it’ll happen. Even if we find a drug that produces all of the effects of ethanol without the long term health effects, hangovers and can be easily “undone” a la narcan for opioids, I don’t think it would take off. And that’s all of those prerequisites are a pretty monumental undertaking. If you enjoy quality bottles of rum, tequila, whiskey, gin, etc. a big part of its flavor is due to ethanol. It’s a great solvent and all of those flavors from the mash are dissolved in the ethanol. If it’s an aged spirit like a quality scotch or bourbon, the ethanol is pulling those wood sugars and volatile compounds from the barrel, giving it it’s characteristic flavors. And those compounds break down over years, forming new flavors, adding texture and mellowing out the ethanol “burn”. There’s no replacement for that. People have tried rapid aging in all sorts of novel ways or adding flavors to the finished product. They produce subpar spirits.

Part of drinking is the effects but for a lot of people it’s the unique flavors that can’t really be found otherwise, particularly in fine wine/spirits or craft cocktails. It’s an experience in and of itself, outside of simple intoxication

It was often portrayed as kinda junky so it wouldn’t surprise me if random shit just fell off all the time lol. O’Brien’s level of general frustration would support it

I’ve found my people. Shredded cheese out of the bag if I’m feeling randy

Politic deez nuts lmao

Not to mention, Lemmy.world admins have said it’s mostly been due to ddos attacks. What’s to stop the people ddosing them to turn their sights on smaller instances?

Nail on the head. Aspartame is still better for you than super processed foods loaded with sugar. This reminds me of the big smear campaign against fat that the sugar industry engineered to take the heat off of themselves way back when

King of the hill! You can watch it on Hulu I think

I don’t think you can sort comments. At least I haven’t found a way to. You also can’t directly reply to replies of your comments. Gotta go back to the old thread and dig until you find your original comment and then reply to the response. Bit clumsy, but it’s not the end of the world
