Shortsighted little fek, aren’t you?

It’s horrible to democracy that someone ks trying to engage with any pieces of it that might be left?

“Just leave it guys, it’s not worth it.”

Fuck off

Hope you addressed that to people in general.

I’ve dried and made tee as well. Was rather soft. But it’s very hard experimenting when you’ve no idea of potency or dosages. For me at least, even though I tried getting a good buzz and drank quite a large dose, the effects were rather mild. Noticeable and pleasant, but not too strong.

At least for one there was not a similar sort of anxiety liberty caps give. They are really potent though, so it’s a bit different.

I might collect an amanita or two actually not that they should be somewhat in season. Although I might be late already.

Coke may have (re)popularised them, but they didn’t originate them, so the Siberian shroom santa is still technically possible if not plausible.

Although it may seem a fortunate coincidence, the use of red and white colours for Santa’s outfit was not a homage to Coca-Cola’s brand colours, but rather was inspired by the Bishop’s mitre clothing which may have been worn by the real St Nicholas

Featured there is Amanita Muscaria, which isn’t really that poisonous. White Amanitas are lethal, never touch those, but with Muscaria you could have some fun.

Some even theorise that the reason Santa is red and white comes from Amanitas, basically a siberian shaman got fucked up on shrooms and climbed down the middle pole of the tent to give everyone else shrooms as well. Which is why Santa comes from the chimney and gives colorful presents. :) (Or so some people have theorised, I’m not asserting it as fact lol.)

edit and also reindeer love chomping on amanitas, and amanitas are associated with feelings of “flying”. and the way these people would get high is that the shaman would eat a lot of shrooms, then after he got high he’d piss in a bowl and that piss would get people really high.)

I’m actually a bit jealous of his sleeping situation. I don’t mind dogs being “dirty” and I’d prefer 4 dogs (and maybe a wife) to sleeping alone.

We can, sort of.

Not really, as I don’t think any currently remaining hunter-gatherers practice persistence hunting? But in the very loose sense that a lot of anthropology does indeed rely on studying some modern hunter-gatherers.

Isn’t it wild to think there are still a few uncontacted tribes which are classified as hunter-gatherers (although they’re partly pastoral and horticultural)?

I’m gonna use that saying, lol

Literally just walk down animals and eat them, like a paleolithic terminator. We could carry water and possibly some jerry/nuts, so could literally go for days without stopping.

Horses can gallop for like a mile or two and maybe go for like 20 without stopping.

And we have tracking abilities. There was some meme about that paleolithic terminator thing. Like an animal would see these weird naked apes in the distance and that’s it, they’re done. Doesn’t matter if they run or not, death is coming.

And we definitely still have that ability, physically.

Check this out.

Albert Ernest Clifford Young OAM (8 February 1922[1] – 2 November 2003[2]) was an Australian[2] athlete from Beech Forest, Victoria. A farmer, he became notable for his unexpected win of the inaugural Sydney to Melbourne Ultramarathon in 1983 at 61 years of age.[3][4]

In 1983, now aged 61 years old, Young won the inaugural Westfield Sydney to Melbourne Ultramarathon, a distance of 875 kilometres (544 mi). The race was run between what were then Australia’s two largest Westfield shopping centres: Westfield Parramatta in Sydney and Westfield Doncaster in Melbourne.[8] Young arrived to compete in overalls and work boots, without his dentures (later saying that they rattled when he ran).[9] He ran at a slow and loping pace and trailed the pack by a large margin at the end of the first day. While the other competitors stopped to sleep for six hours, Young kept running. He ran continuously for five days, taking the lead during the first night and eventually winning by 10 hours. Before running the race, he had told the press that he had previously run for two to three days straight rounding up sheep in gumboots.[10] He said afterwards that during the race he imagined he was running after sheep trying to outrun a storm. The Westfield run took him five days, fifteen hours and four minutes,[1] almost two days faster than the previous record for any run between Sydney and Melbourne, at an average speed of 6.5 kilometres per hour (4.0 mph).

And what a sportsman:

All six competitors who finished the race broke the old record. Upon being awarded the prize of A$10,000 (equivalent to $36,011 in 2022), Young said that he did not know there was a prize and that he felt bad accepting it, as each of the other five runners who finished had worked as hard as he did—so he split the money equally between them, keeping none.[11] Despite attempting the event again in later years, Young was unable to repeat this performance or claim victory again.

“I got attacked while I was asleep with my wife and four dogs and mauled, physically mauled.” … “I have no idea what happened.”

lol

No offense, but they really did cover that quite a lot better on Last Week Tonight.

The episode is called “stand your ground laws”, and believe it or not, it talks about things related to the laws. Like which states do what.

Perhaps take a gander https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTF-Kz_7L0c

The episode covered all that in detail, yes.

They give pretty good background and wider context, so…

Forgive me if I have erred there

You’re so loud ghe whole (Western) world knows most about your business.

You are right of course, and any interaction with police could be dangerous. But if he just shoots the guy, then calls the authorities while clearly laying his weapon far away from him and being on his knees with his hands on his head, there shouldn’t be an excuse for the cops to murder him.

But an alarming amount of things I’ve thought would never happen with the police have happened. Both in the US and here in Finland. Now I don’t need to be afraid of getting murdered, but the abuse still didn’t feel good.

Yeah that made me have a thought. John Oliver did an episode on “stand your ground” ages ago, and reading that guy’s message, asking “what he can do”, I’m forced to conclude that for him, in the US, in that situation, it would probably be best to get a gun himself and the next time the guy does something like this, just two to the chest.

Seeing he has a restraining order and whatnot previous things, probably should be somewhat of an easy case to defend as self-defense, right? Unless it’s just even fucking sadder, and it is just because he’s black and he’d just end up imprisoned for murder.

God the world is shit nowadays where shall we congregate a force to have a teensy weensy global revolution?

Oh shit I was in the wrong tab. I thought I was on an article about Elmo for some reason. My bad.

As if the US would ever imprison someone so rich.

edit I was talking about Elon I’m so high I thought I was on another post.

“The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.” ― Socrates

Greed and hatred weren’t that much of a problem for Socrates apparently, but they both agree that ignorance is fucking bad. And the Greeks had two words for it (at least), separating a lack of ability from a refusal to understand.

https://howtobeastoic.wordpress.com/2016/01/19/one-crucial-word/

“The higher, pretentious form of stupidity stands only too often in crass opposition to [its] honorable form. It is not so much lack of intelligence as failure of intelligence, for the reason that it presumes to accomplishments to which it has no right … The stupidity this addresses is no mental illness, yet it is most lethal; a dangerous disease of the mind that endangers life itself. … [S]ince the ‘higher stupidity’ consists not in an inability to understand but in a refusal to understand, any healing or reversal of it will not occur through rational argumentation, through a greater accumulation of data and knowledge, or through experiencing new and different feelings … We may say that the reversal of a spiritual sickness must entail a spiritual cure.”

But they don’t understand that if they weren’t such selfish assholes, they’d have it better as well, because society evolves.

That’s why there were centuries of kings who lived as lavishly as they could, while society went nowhere and people shat in the streets. They still lived in shitty castles without running water.

They just lack imagination so much and are so afraid of losing status. Dumb fucks.

Apple seeds contain amygdalin, a substance that releases cyanide into the blood stream when chewed and digested. However, apple seeds in small amounts do not contain enough cyanide to cause harm.

A bottle of shite (I meant to write “white” but I won’t correct that) wine and a few Oxys, presumably.
