Same here! And got one for a family member as well. The original news gave me my first bit of hope after the election.

What he was doing in and of itself wasn't bad, but it was ignoring the shrinking enthusiasm of the democratic base and the growing of the maga rhetoric. It reinforces the pendulum effect of letting the right wing swing back instead of giving the left a whole new momentum.

I used to be completely sober all the way through my 30s. I tried things later and they really helped me see life from different angles. I didn't try shrooms until I felt I was ready. They are easily one of the best things that ever happened to me. I would not suggest trying them unless you feel comfortable, are in a very familiar environment, and you have a trustworthy, caring friend to keep you company.

Chinatown holds up so well to modern viewing. Incredible film. When I first watched it I had already heard that last line used over and over as a joke in general culture. Hearing that line for the first time in context is like a punch to the gut. One of the best endings ever.

It's not a wild thing for people to misunderstand the difference between egoism and egotism. You're castigating the community over the misunderstanding of a single letter between a word that is common and one that is niche, and in a way that screams of your own ego.

Ironically, amusingly, your post drips of egotism.

I actually really like Bookie.
