According to the Psychonautwiki on shrooms (which is fairly reliable in my experience), anything over 50mg of psilocybin is a "heavy" dose. Trouble is, unless you can get your shrooms from a reliable source, guessing the psilocybin content is pretty tricky. The one time I intentionally did a pretty heavy trip on shrooms, it was something like a quarter ounce of dried shrooms, but another time I just had a nibble on one for laughs while drinking with my buddies and it wound up being pretty substantial. If they're fresh instead of dried or just a different strain or batch, it's all pretty up in the air, so my advice is to always be ready for a heavy trip unless you've already had some experience with that particular batch.

I believe that's the point of the original meme. I hesitate to say "whoosh," as you did eventually get to the the same interpretation, but you definitely took the pretty blatant subtext and made it text.

Then again, I still upvoted you

I think it's even money that Trump tries it.

Considering he is already illegally deporting people and illegally trying to revoke birthright citizenship, you are more optimistic than I.

Getting a tech for your first win, especially in a match where your team got crushed is a big deal, especially for a new athlete. I wouldn't call anything about that a participation trophy.

In fact, one of my proudest memories as a HS wrestler was losing by one in a dual meet against our rivals where the coaches asked me to wrestle up two weight classes and my goal was "don't get teched or pinned." I lost, but I did my part and the team won (so the inverse of your sitch). I would say that an individual win and team loss or an individual loss but team win are both worth celebrating. That's one of my favorite things about wrestling is that you can have a good day regardless of who the team is facing or how everyone else does.

The political prints about Spain and Spanish politics are particularly interesting to me

This is legit why people started to believe in Hell

This, and monotheism. You can't have an omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent deity if there's observable evil in the world unless "it's all part of God's plan," and/or "people reap what they sow"

I dunno, I think that's part of the magic of the Black Paintings. To me, what makes them truly unsettling (in the best way) is the fact that he painted them exclusively for his own desire and that we're limited to guessing the subject matter (which, although ambiguous, was undoubtedly dark).

Except you do level up if you continue to practice and learn new skills.

I would listen to music but in 90% of times that music is controlled by my phone

I highly recommend trying to listen to albums in their entirety, if for no other reason than it makes it easier to turn it on and then not touch anything for the rest of the album. Personally, vinyl works really well for me.

I GOT SOMETHING TO PUT IN YOU!

Depends on your town. I live in a small tourist town with one cinema and they only play the biggest hits, focusing on the lowest common denominator. I mean, I'm not even sure they screened Sinners, but they definitely played The Minecraft Movie in 4 (out of 14) theaters for months. If I want to go to a different cinema, I have to drive 45 minutes to get to the next town (where the selection still sucks, but at least they've got more screens) or 75 min to get to the closest independent theater.

I first heard both Bright Eyes and Limbeck as a result of my first college roommate.

 

The electric (and superior) version of "My My, Hey Hey," also frequently cited as the birth of grunge.

 

Welcome home, but thrash instead of corpse paint.

 

Red wine is obviously the connection.

It was either this, or "Champagne Supernova" but I figured the world doesn't need more Oasis and a lot of people might not know that Neil Diamond write and performed the original version of "Red, Red Wine"

 

Queens, and also because Amaarae's song certainly could be the "feel good hit of the summer"

 

For instance, I made an account here in Lemmy.world because it seemed like a nice, well rounded place to start. However, I want stuff from TTRPG.network to show up when I browse my "frontpage," but all I see is my Lemmy.World communities.

I'm using Liftoff on Android at the moment, but I'm a newb, so I'm clearly not tied to that app.
