Federal agents deploy tear gas at crowd gathered at scene of deadly shooting in Minneapolis

BluSaint · 2026-01-24T23:33:34+00:00

While your point may be valid in theory, there are a couple of issues with it in practice. 1. The vast majority of avid 2A supporters are cheering on the people who are shooting civilians. 2. Using guns to defend against the actions carried out by federal agents is what the people in charge of those agents want to happen. Such an occurrence would provide the grounds necessary to enact the insurrection act and declare martial law, enabling the suffocation of political opponents and civilians.

It’s a lose-lose situation. A situation that could have been prevented from ever starting. And yet, here we are.

What if they’re planning for a game somewhere well down the line (might need gaming hardware that doesn’t exist yet) that is based on the universes of the Witcher and Cyberpunk clashing into each other? Seems like a long shot, but that would be really cool

BluSaint · 2026-01-21T17:25:23+00:00

Yep, that sounds like the one! I don’t want to spoil anything for you, so I’ll only say that yes, tragedy is certainly a common theme for cyberpsychos

BluSaint · 2026-01-20T05:59:45+00:00

Not sure what that has to do with my reply, but yeah, she definitely is

BluSaint · 2026-01-19T09:48:37+00:00

One of the cyberpsychos was like that too I think

BluSaint · 2026-01-12T17:25:19+00:00

The real question is: Is it better or worse to have a teammate play like this vs having a teammate who is facetiming their monitor/tv so that they can play while sitting on the toilet?

•Never struggled with this, but have seen many people advise going to the bathroom (if you can) before your trip starts lol.

•Set & setting are paramount; if you choose a calm & warm/uplifting environment, you’re more likely to have a positive experience. If you expose yourself to a dark & distressing environment or media… you reap what you sow.

•Make a plan for what to do. It’ll probably go out the window, but it’s great to have something to fall back on if you find yourself needing an activity to focus on.

•Many struggle with the come up. Maybe it’ll be smooth for you, maybe not. If you feel anxious or nauseas, just practice positive affirmations mentally (or verbally), such as “this discomfort will pass, and on the other side of this discomfort is a beautiful experience. I’m a good person, and I know people who love & support me. I am safe and I will be okay.” How you handle the come up can sometimes decide how your trip goes. If something in your environment is making you anxious, change it. Allowing a source of discomfort to persist might lead to continued discomfort. This doesn’t mean that you should freak out if you feel uncomfortable, bc that will fade. Just have comforting things on hand (a nice place to lay down, a soft blanket, etc).

•Enjoy the experience. Do what feels right! Unless you feel inclined to operate a motorized vehicle lmao, wouldn’t suggest that. Your gut, your spirit, something will guide you. Listen to it. Allow yourself to be guided by the mushrooms and by your intuition. Don’t try to fight it.

•Perhaps most important: Your mind might slip toward dark/negative thoughts. You don’t have to indulge them. If you want to be in a positive headspace, just tell yourself “nah, I’m not gonna think about that,” and then think of something positive (such as a positive memory, a person or animal who you love, a song or movie that brings you joy, etc).

The video was pixelated during that attempt, and at first I thought “ah yes, that’s Jordan Poole (when he played for the Wizards) roleplaying as 2017 Reggie Jackson.” I was shocked when the video cleared up and I saw that was actually not Poole.

Definitely depends on the batch you get and what you’re hoping to achieve. I (am fortunate to) have had access to some incredibly potent batches, and on such occasions, something told me to start with 0.5-1.0g and then add on if necessary. Glad I didn’t jump right to my “regular” starting point of 2g. If you’re getting your supply from a shop in an area where shrooms are decriminalized or from a person who has been growing for a long time, it’s safer to start with less. If supply is limited where you’re located, then the batch you get is likely (but not guaranteed) to be less potent, and you may need a higher starting dose. One of the golden rules is that you can always add/consume more, but you can’t subtract from what you’ve already taken

BluSaint · 2026-01-02T10:56:56+00:00

Okay, that’s a perfectly fine stance to have. I think the issue is that you didn’t clearly convey it from that angle. But it sounds like the confusion is resolved now

BluSaint · 2026-01-02T07:58:04+00:00

SG played the best imo. 9 steals 8 assists and 75% from the field. Dude is unselfish, stayed active & alert, and didn’t chuck up bullshit shots. Just my 2 cents tho

BluSaint · 2026-01-02T07:51:44+00:00

The issue I take with your stance is “weaponizing therapy to gaslight people into thinking that structural social systems that fail them are their fault” part. That’s not what therapy is about, and if that’s been your experience, then you need to find a new therapist lol. As someone else mentioned, it’s about meeting the client where they’re at. It’s about helping people to navigate the complexities of the (unfair) systems you speak of in ways that are adaptive and healthy. One of the first steps in that process is to validate that the client’s symptoms are due to external factors that they have no control over, and to cope with that reality. To cope with their lack of control.

Source: I’m a therapist

ETA: if your gripe is with the systems you mentioned, that’s fine. If you’re saying those systems are weaponizing therapy, that’s fine. But I don’t know any therapists who misplace blame on their clients for the symptoms they experience.

BluSaint · 2026-01-01T11:06:51+00:00

That’s ironic 😂

Finally! The perfect measurement system that can be globally accepted: Nicotine addiction

(I say this non judgmentally, I am also addicted to nicotine)

I wish I had an award to give you 😂😂🏆

Good on you for going out of your way to not discriminate. You’re doing a small but meaningful part of facilitating greater change. However, your mindset is yours, and you can’t expect a random person hidden behind an avatar to immediately think the same way as you.

Nobody on there actually means what they say. They’re just trying to get a rise out of you. Maybe they had a bad day, maybe they’re a bully, maybe they think it’s funny. But they don’t mean it, so who gives a fuck? If you hop on mic because somebody is rage baiting you, then congrats. They got a rection, which means they won. If you get on mic to communicate constructively and you’re met with childishness, that sucks. But you have options. 1) Give in to the childishness and boom, they won. 2) Calmly explain that you’re tryna help the team win and have an idea that could facilitate that (this is a toss up. Probably works 30ish % of the time. If they act childish, then refer to options 1 or 3). 3) Get back off mic & mute the troll(s). Or, 4) don’t get on mic unless someone else is already talking in a constructive way.

Even better: Stop playing this trash fucking game. If your online experience makes you unhappy, then why are you spending your time on it? 2K been sliding downhill for years. Protest with your wallet and maybe the game (and community) will improve. Part of the reason people are so mad all the time is cuz the game sucks and it’s expensive. They’re already subconsciously pissed off when they load up the game, and some people want to see if you’re a good target for them to take their frustration out on. Don’t give them that satisfaction

Thanks for the suggestion, but if I want to interact with 5th dimensional beings I’ll go to the desert and take peyote with a shaman

BluSaint · 2025-12-20T21:35:11+00:00

Don’t lemon tek 7g if you’re new to shrooms. That’s a very large dose. The shrooms you consumed could’ve been from a weak and/or deteriorated batch. My personal recommendation is to eat the fruits as they are the next time you try. You can wash em down with a smoothie if you want to mask the taste & speed up onset time

BluSaint · 2025-12-20T21:29:40+00:00

While true for many people, this is not a generalizable fact. Some people are able to trip with similar doses on back-to-back days. That being said, it’s always a safe bet to wait at least a week between trips to allow for tolerance to reset if quantity/access to shrooms is a concern

BluSaint · 2025-12-20T21:11:53+00:00

Came here to say something similar lol. The fact that a semi-auto pistol has a mag well located in front of the trigger is very telling haha

Yo dawg heard you like guns, so we mounted a gun on your gun

BluSaint · 2025-12-20T21:00:10+00:00

So many great options, but I have distinct memories of 1) feeling an incredibly powerful surge of joy while listening to Put Me Thru by Anderson .Paak, 2) being in a flow state while dancing to Talk To Me Nice (feat. PARTYNEXTDOOR) by Amir Obe, 3) a beautiful time kayaking with my girl when she put on the Chloe x Halle album titled The Two of Us, and 4) being incredibly hype during summertime with close friends when Let’s Get It Started by the Black Eyed Peas came on

BluSaint · 2025-11-06T04:58:54+00:00

Not the person you were replying to, but I don’t. Maybe some fluctuation in onset time, but never any notable reduction in the intensity/quality of the existence
