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.

As someone who drank and smoked a lot as soon as they could at 18 until my house party era ended around 24 years old, the booze is way more dangerous and risky. Both things damage the developing brain for sure and I know I'm a little dimmer after the fact than I would've been otherwise, but alcohol can get wild. Some people I knew crashed and burned hard before their lives even really got started. I also built a huge social web and came out of my socially awkward shell during that time which doubles as a safety net going forward in life so, I won't say what you should or shouldn't do. I'm just saying there are risks and if someone gets bit, not everyone recovers. Oh and all drugs "soft" or hard and even shit like caffeine incur a debt that you always have to pay back eventually. More drugs, bigger body debt.
Edible first timer, I would suggest not just because the potential for a bad expierence is high and then it's bad for many hours. Especially if you get anxiety / paranoia in response to being high at all or too high. Vape extract like a 510 cart ideally for better control over dosage and not inhaling tarry stank ass smoke. If you can only smoke accept wasting some and only hit it once and then wait 15min to see how you feel before a second puff. Getting too high fucking sucks especially for a beginner, fair warning.
