No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Lsd is like a toy that induces some mild mental plasticity, and playing with it lets you try on different brain shapes.
You start feeling/tasting the effects in your jaw about ten minutes or so after eating a tab, it's a but like that feeling you get after rollercoasters but in your salivary glands, idk it's hard to describe.
At this point I like to be alone, settled in a cool, dimly lit room, preferably lying on my back and on a tile floor (carpet is disgusting when you're tripping) and I let my mind wander and start playing.
Day to day I'm incredibly visual, it comes naturally and isn't particularly entertaining any more, I can easily create a looping klein bottle out of an apple and imagine things in 3d spaces. We're long past rotating cows in this bad boi.
What I'm not able to do 'normally' though, is build music in my mind. The complex layering and holding all those moving parts in my mind at once is just not possible for me. Unless I'm on acid. Then I'm composing symphonies and exploring all the genres of maths and pattern building I can comprehend.
Acid for is a very sensory high, you will be aware of things you didn't know you had the ability to feel. It can be very overwhelming if you focus on it and let it be.
I hate being in public or around people on acid (tbh I really dislike such things sober too) and if I'm not careful and get overwhelmed, I can get very lost in all the nerve endings of my face. Having a face full of nerve endings is a very distractingly sensory experience.
Getting out of this groove is easy though, just distract yourself with something interesting once you become aware of being stuck, and avoid social spaces at all costs.
TLDR: lsd is best done alone, lying on my kitchen floor in the dark, so I can play in my imagination. Ymmv.
Thanks for sharing such a detailed experience! While I won't try it alone for the first time, I definitely want to see how I react on it when alone. down the road. I'm quite musical, having attended music school and played lots of instruments durign the years, so I wonder what LSD would do with that. xD
With a musically trained brain you're probably going to have a lot of fun with lsd. I wish you luck and many fun trips!
