  • I agree with you for the most part, but at the end of the day, you have to take someone in power action by action. Everyone who has ever held office has pretty much done at least one or two good things for their community. I’m not saying that I’m totally anti Joe Biden, but I think that he (like all politicians) can be full of shit sometimes. Remember back when he got elected, he proceeded to undo everything trump did about border control and even made that a big part of his campaign? As of late, he has slowly been reimplementing those policies. I think Biden is someone who rides off emotion and public feedback in relation to followers of his party, which can be a good thing but it can also be a bad thing.



  • It’s not about “being obsessed with the past” it’s about paying attention to history, particularly a certain person’s history. Joe biden had not been even remotely interested in legalization/decriminalization until he started running for office. Joe Biden was already an old man when he pushed for enforcement of the RAVE act along with other drug bills, I can maybe understand his “concrete jungle” statements from the 70’s, but we are literally talking about barely over 20 years ago.

    All I am saying is to be cautious and not too trusting, ESPECIALLY of politicians.






  • Parroting what you said huh? Where did I repeat a single word you said?

    shitty sexist agenda

    That my friend, is what parroting actually is. You brought sex into it because you want to make a specific group of people’s suffering seem insignificant solely based on the genitals they were born with. That’s literally sexism. Victims are victims, giving a specific group special attention leads to ignorance of the other group, and especially considering that about 36% of domestic violence victims are indeed men, that is NOT something that can just be ignored. It is totally ironic that you are sitting here telling me that I have a sexist agenda when you are literally downplaying just how many domestic violence victims are men, solely based on the fact that they are men.

    rejecting the truth

    I need citations please, show me where I denied any fact based evidence you presented. I said men are victims in an estimated 36% of domestic violence cases, everything you just stated seems like it was an attempt to somehow “prove” that I said something other than what I said.

    Again, the very first sentence in my statement holds just as true as everything else I said, you are fucking STUPID.


  • You’re fucking stupid lol, and people like you who put the label of sex in domestic violence + abuse can honestly go fuck themselves too.

    A N Y O N E is capable of violence. To lessen a HUMAN BEING’S suffering just because of their sex? THAT is sexism my friend, literally the definition right there. “Men need to be fixed” because about 14% more are abusers compared to women? Not accounting for rounding, margins of error, silent cases? Considering the fact that men are far more likely to stay quiet in cases like this because of the extreme stigma that people like YOU create in circumstances like this.

    Remember, YOU people brought sex into it. I don’t see male or female when I see someone suffering from domestic abuse, I see a victim!

    You don’t see “female victim” on the news when you see a woman getting in a car crash, you don’t see a “male victim” headline when a man gets murdered in a street, you see VICTIM. That’s because that’s what they are and that’s what’s important at the end of the day.





  • I’d like to come back to apologize, I didn’t fully understand what you were saying before and wanted to clarify that you are not wrong either.

    Lysergamides are not tryptamines, but they do contain tryptamines, however they also contain phenethlyamines which, like tryptamines, are a class of psychedelic substances themselves. Although Lysergamides contain these two substances, scientists agree that they should be classified as a separate class altogether as they have both distinctive enough effects and enough variations under their tree that do not fit anywhere specifically under the tryptamine or phenethtlamine tree. As far as I’m aware, this is distinctly from a chemistry perspective and doesn’t incorporate psychonautics into it’s classification (although the reverse is usually the case).

    I wouldn’t say that anything sucks about it though, there is always new information coming out, that’s what makes science awesome. We like to think that we have got it all figured out, but there is always something that could throw everything we know off the table. Remember that the scientific method only came about in the 17th century, everything was pretty much theory up until then and that’s still a very small amount of time for us to have learned everything we have learned.

    Once again, I am sorry for how my tone may have been before. I am told I can come off as accusatory or adamant at times but I try not to be. I hope this makes you feel better, you are not wrong, there was just more to the story is all :).



  • Drugs were not regulated at all when MDMA was invented, but when Shulgin rediscovered it, drugs were at the very early stages of prohibition.

    I should make this very clear about MDMA though, I think people should try it, but MDMA you should be careful with. MDMA is one of the least sustainable drugs to abuse, but the effects it can have if you abuse it, are life-long. At the very least you can lose the magic which is usually permanent.

    It is definitely a state that is meant to be respected. If you want to take something similar to MDMA more often, I’d recommend 2CB although you’ll have a clearer headspace on that.
