“You’re not even American, and think you have the right to laugh at the American military-industrial complex?!”
What’s wrong with an overmilitarised and undereducated police force…?
What’s wrong with people genuinely not being able to name the difference in roles between the military and the police?
We can figure this out together, I’m sure.
Like they do more than 90% of males here. ~7% go to civil service.
“Lucky you”. You Americans and your military fetishes. Exactly what’s the problem here, preventing you from discerning your police from your military or even really knowing the difference.
served in the military, right?
I did, yeah. About 75% of males around here do, nothing special about it. Also, while we do it we genuinely get better training in the use of force than most American police.
And yes, they do talk about the responsibility of what you share. When I was in the army, not so much, as social media wasn’t really a thing yet and phone cameras weren’t much of thing. My brother, though, went a few years after, they covered it in much more detail.
Edit technically I’m still in the army, as I’m in the reserves.
Americans genuinely don’t understand the difference between police and the military rofl
Weird how a “mycologist” can’t even discern between a family and a species.
Psilocybe cubensis and it’s variants are the one’s you farm at home, but they’re far from being the only psilocybe species that are ingested. One of the foremost being psilocybe semilanceatea (liberty caps) which is far more potent than any cubensis. There are dozens of species of psilocybe mushrooms, but like the name might suggest, they all contain psilocybin.
I specifically said name me two mushrooms which do not contain psilocybin and which rely on other psyhoactives, for my point is that rather like alcohol, with mushrooms, only really the dosage varies with variants, whereas with cannabis variants, the actual composition of the psyhoactive chemicals varies… greatly. (And for the pedants, mushrooms will have varying relative amounts of psilocin and psilocybin and relatives, but since psilocybin metabolises into psilocin, it’s nowhere near the same as with dozens of different cannabinoids + terpenes.)
I’ve cultivated shrooms several times. Have you? A rather noob’s guide you’ve linked if I might say. Almost as if it’s the first result someone Googling it might link.
“Mycologist” lmao, you’re a bad liar bruv.
Krokodil?
Shitty homemade Russian desomorphine, I’ve had fentanyl.
Ayahuasca?
Ayahuasca is a brew in which you have a DMT-containing compound and a MAOi in order to get it through to your brain, so to speak. (That’s not how it works neurochemically but I’m lazy in writing rn so that’ll suffice.) Drinking Ayahuasca means the ROI (route-of-ingestion) is oral, meaning rather slow. It does last a long time, 10-12 hours, (context pending). The psychoactive element, DMT, is something I’ve smoked. That is a much faster ROI, and although the trip is shorter, it is way more intense, and the only way some people say a breakthrough dose is possible. Ayahuasa is milder and lasts longer, and is done in a setting in which there are professionals (not medical, but spiritual, ‘shamanical’, if that makes sense) and is more therapeutic. Smoking DMT is… a rather more intense, more psychedelic experience. Less than 10 seconds after my first hit… the walls started… “living in time”. I remember using those words, but as of this moment, I couldn’t explain exactly why. After the trip, I also said “I met God” and I know I just used it as shorthand, because I don’t believe in a singular deity whatsoever, but… it was just as clear to me as 2+2 at the time that I had sort of talked to the “consciousness of the universe” or however you might be able to even attempt to simplify it to a few words.

There’s a few resources for anyone who found my that intriguing.
Jenkem?
Greatest memelording of the early 2000’s, not an actual drug, but other volatiles I could recommend are nitrous oxide and, among others, ether. (I’m also growing my own mescaline, and have been for the past ten years, not that it’s an inahalant of any sort, just the movie reminded me. It takes a while to grow mescaline cacti, so growing it doesn’t mean yielding it.)
Avoiding the question while pretending to be an expert, cool, cool.
Hey when people ask you “do you drink alcohol” do you answer them with “brodda wut? lol, no, only ethanol, why would you think ‘alcohol’ means ‘ethanol’ ‘alcohol’ actually means all alcohols and most of them aren’t suitable for human consumption”?
I’m sure you don’t.
Now, seeing how you’re an expert mycologist, please, do name two “magic mushrooms” which don’t contain any psilocin or psilocybin or any of the precursors. (Meaning shrooms in which the “magic” isn’t from psilocybin.)
Found the guy without experience of drug culture
Name a drug and I’ve done it.
Name two magic mushrooms without psilocybin.
I can. Can you, even with googling?
“Magic mushrooms” is exactly what refers to psilocybin, even more accurately than “ecstasy” refers to MDMA (a lot of pills have caffeine/mda/speed/rc’s).
If you told someone you did shrooms, who the hell would even ask “oh you do mean like psilocybin mushrooms or amanitas or what?”
These are pretty different though, as cannabis has literally dozens of different cannabinoids and terpenes, but “magic mushrooms” refers to psilocybin shrooms, which all have psilocybin and psilocin in varying amounts.
Cannabis relies on the entourage effect.
I was born with 2.5 kidneys, an extra ureter and 4 of my permanent teeth never showed up. Also mild colour vision deficiency.
I was talking about it with our first lieutenant in the army and he went “Corporal, you’re a mutant!”. “Yes, sir, I am sir.”
The modern interpretations have included Orkney, Shetland, Northern Scotland, the island of Saaremaa (Ösel) in Estonia, and the Norwegian island of Smøla.
By the Late Middle Ages and the early modern period, the Greco-Roman Thule was often identified with the real Iceland or Greenland. Sometimes Ultima Thule was a Latin name for Greenland, when Thule was used for Iceland. By the late 19th century, however, Thule was frequently identified with Norway.[6][7]

But yeah they were aware of things beyond the limits of their maps. So idk id this is more accurately “roughly around the limits of roman maps” instead of “the area the Roman empire ruled”.
Tacitus for instance talks about the Fenni and the romans definitely visited and knew the Baltic Sea, but there probably wasn’t a whole lot going on around 100AD that would’ve been of that much interest to the romans. Fishing and relatively poor trading (by Roman standards).
I mean…I did mention it, didn’t I? Or is that what you’re talking about?
“Normal” (non-autoflowering) cannabis is more properly “photoperiod”, which means that they only start blooming once they “recognise” the light period to be around 12/12 (and some strains like 18/6, referred to as “earlys”, but those are quite rare.)
“Autoflowering” refers to how the plants “automatically” go into bloom despite the light period you have. Ruderalis is (well arguably) a subspecies (or a species of it’s own, whatever) that evolved at such northern latitudes that when the lights actually hit 12/12 (in autumn), there wouldn’t be time to bloom.
So ruderalis evolved to bloom despite the light period, more relying on just how old/big/fed the plant is. Mainly just the age of the plant.
At first ruderalis strains were really small and mild (Lowryder, ah, the nostalgia), but that was like 15 years ago.
Nowadays it’s hard to find strains that there aren’t autoflowering versions for, and the plants can be pretty much just as huge as “normal” photoperiods.
Depends on the grower and whether they’re grow outside or inside, but not having to change your lights can be an advantage, especially since the 12/12 requires 12 hours of proper darkness, ao for instance small windowsill cannabis wouldn’t bloom in northern latitudes. Requires a good lightproof tent to grow normal photoperiods. Autoflowers are less fussy and usually faster from seed to weed.
However if you do have a proper setup, you’re probably gonna want photoperiods, as growing them gives more control. You can decide how long you want the “vegetative” phase to last, so you can grow the plants for 3 weeks them force them to bloom or you can grow them for 6 weeks and let them flower. Then the flowering takes about 8-12 weeks on top of that. With autoflowers it’s usually 10-12 from seed to harvest. Fastest ones claim 8 weeks.
Hope that answers your question somewhat.
Huh, last I looked somewhere I’m pretty sure indica was considered a subspecies, not a distinct species. Thanks for the update or correction, either or.
Oh wait no I should’ve known, it’s something we’re still pretty much arguing over. That is whether sativa and indica (and ruderalis) are both suspecies, or whether they’re all their own species in the same family.
And dog breeds are still (at least in the vast majority) not even different subspecies, just different breed (variants of the same species)
Indica is technically “cannabis sativa indica” and then a strain would technically be written fully as “C. sativa var indica, ‘Indian Kush’” or “C. sativa indica, var ‘Northern Lights’” or something to that effect. But also sativa would be like “C. sativa sativa, var. ‘Durban Poison’”
This is all up for debate, I’m not saying there’s consensus on what is or isn’t correct. Just inputting a lil content to Lemmy
Almost as if the joke relies on the fact that in written form those are the same.
This exact thing was done to me, sans the “we killed your dog” bit.
The Finnish authorities see nothing wrong with having a person paint a cell in their own blood. They tried charging me with vandalism for it. They denied me my prescription medication, ffs.
No, I really don’t.
What “other side” are you talking about?
What is the “story” here even?
That America has a military-industrial complex which results in undereducated police officers with military gear and little to no understanding of the rights they say they’re protecting?
No, I really don’t nees to live in the US to judge that, just like neither of us needs to live in Gaza to know whether there’s a genocide going on there or whether or not genocide is moral. (Hint: It’s not..)
