I knew someone who went to his german language classes on LSD and I couldn't think of a worse clsss to do that in.

Imagine being perfectly fluent in German, but only when gorked out your damn orb.

It sounds like something I'd expect of a CIA expirement gone wrong.

The untold story: 1.) the grade was curved due to everyone's low numbers

2.) no one wanted to get near the rocks to identify them because there was one weird mofo walking on all fours around the displays, randomly snarling and licking each one

Homeslice identified a few more than everybody else and his grade shot to the moon.

As someone who does LSD whenever she can (Which is... sadly not as often as you'd think)

This doesn't surprise me

[–] Soluna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I really want to experiment with psychedelics but I have no idea where to even start on obtaining them lol

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

You're on the internet. Halfway there.

[–] Soluna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 21 hours ago (9 children)

*safely obtain them. I don't know how to tell apart legit sites and honeypots, and as a trans girl in Texas I am really really really worried about potentially being arrested. So I don't risk it, and I probably won't until I meet someone I can trust irl who can help me get access tbh.

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

a trans girl in Texas I am really really really worried about potentially being arrested

Okay, yeah, I can't definitely understand that.

I'm unsure as to how much of this I can talk about here, but what online stores have going for them is often safety and reliability. Unless the markets are "cashing out", they're usually safe.

("Cashing out" as in they have a functional market people use, then when it's been going for a while, they're decide to end it, they just stop relaying orders but keep the money that's in escrow, usually still get action for some days/weeks, leading to huge profits.)

That being said, you'd need a safe mailbox to order to, so as not to order drugs to your own home.

But yeah, IRL can be better, especially because you can then have someone who instructs you or acts as a tripsitter if you feel like you like to have one.

IRL can also be worse, because you don't really know what you're getting for a certainty. Unlike with online traders, because you can choose someone who has hundreds of positive comments and a good rating.

People honest don't know how easy getting drugs is in most parts of the world, which is what makes it hard for them, which in turn makes it easy for everyone who does know, because you can quite comfortably do your business in front of people who are totally oblivious to it.

But yeah. Don't get arrested in Texas for drugs as a trans-girl, I strongly agree with that. Hope Harris wins and the US could perhaps improve a bit. Stay safe, sister. <3

I figured you'd only really be able to buy it in bulk on the dark web.

Until very recently festivals were a major source of LSD distribution in the U.S.

Not so much regular attendees buying 10 strips but people who know each other meeting up at various festivals to exchange larger quantities of dry, crystal LSD. I don't know how much it's changed in the last decade or so, probably not that much.

I couldn’t do it, I’d be worried everyone could tell I was high. Tbf tho, no one called him out for licking rocks… sooooo idk. I’d just hate to be remembered as the rock licking guy

I once gave a speech on butterflies while stoned off my ass. Got really, REALLY fucking stoned, with a buddy cause I was pretty sure I didn't have to go to that class that day. Checked the syllabus and turns out I had to go. We picked the subject of other people's speech, and gave a 3 minute "speech" on butterflies, which I mostly just modified Mitch hedberg jokes to fit butterflies. Got the class laughing and got an A. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[–] jagungal@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Mitch Hedberg jokes while high is a pretty smart move. Either that or you're the only person who finds them funny and end up looking like an idiot.

Definitely read this as his test was about lsd, was mighty confused until i scrolled back up and read it 3 more times

[–] socsa@piefed.social 11 points 16 hours ago

I took the SATs my second time the night after taking LSD and was still seeing decent trails. I did better than when I took it the first time and got very close to a perfect verbal score iirc.

[–] vala@lemmy.world 9 points 10 hours ago

The hoody part adds validity to this story IMO
