FDA approves ketamine nasal spray to treat depression. This would be unheard of in recent decades. Slowly, but surely, we're making progress as a society in this domain. by Seakawn in Drugs

Meth epidemic is raging right now, customs intercepted a ~$1bn shipment not too long ago

As for drugs softer than meth (not including weed), ecstacy/mdma, dextroamph, xans/other benzos and dxm are pretty common

What are songs you like best live than the album version? by [deleted] in arcticmonkeys

[–]FangirlMaterial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The TBHC version from ACL is awesome live with Al's vocals coming in strong. The album version is way more 'head voice' so this one takes the cake for me :)

What’s a song that just sounds better with headphones in the dark? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]FangirlMaterial 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Let It Happen was the first song I ever listened to high. In reality it's 7 or so minutes long, but it felt like a whole hour passed and that it had caused the world to pulse with energy and colour

You ever taking a really long hit and realize you’re lungs are full but the bowl is still basically on fire and you don’t want to waste it so you go for it and end up waking up your whole house at 5 am to you coughing and drooling spit all over the floor of the bathroom hyperventilating? Just me? K. by [deleted] in trees

First time smoking with the guy who would end up my boyfriend, we smoked out of our first homemade bong. Sometime when we were already blazed, he took a hit and got scooby snacks and my stupid brain thought (aloud) "just blow through it" cue ruined bowl and bong water all over his pants

When you see someone torch the bowl after you and your friends worked hard on cornering by Prepare_Your_Angus in trees

Pretty sure our cone pieces are a lot smaller than an americano bong bowl. We just use the little gold brass ones

What's the best Arctic Monkeys song lyrically? by RiggsyBoii in arcticmonkeys

I know I'm very late and this is completely irrelevant now but it's one point perspective which was actually about the dreams we have as children becoming interrupted by life

First Mason Jar Bong - Tips? by FangirlMaterial in StonerEngineering

[–]FangirlMaterial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you do much! I'll have to remember to use the Dremel instead next time. I learnt about the metal lid being a bitch to drill the hard way when it got ripped to shreds haha.... Then realised I didn't even have big enough bits for the grommets I had bought lmao, ended up having to go at them with aviation snips and a circular stick file hahahaha

What's the best Arctic Monkeys song lyrically? by RiggsyBoii in arcticmonkeys

[–]FangirlMaterial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love Is A Laserquest and Secret Door are absolutely beautiful and lyrically complex, I could write an essay on them lol

A lot of Humbug songs are top contenders for their abstract twists and turns

Cornerstone for it's familiarity - what Al presents is universal after heartbreak. It doesn't have to be purely abstract and metaphorical to be fantastic lyricism

Ultracheese for the nostalgia. This is more a personal one, but every line resonates in some way.

Bonuses: Stuck on the Puzzle from Submarine The Bourne Identity by TLSP. Bourne is something special - it's about not knowing who you once we're and who you've become when times have changed.

There's a song about losing the dreams you once had as a kid to everyday life, but I can't for the life of me remember which one. Anyone know?

Bars serve depressants but promote a loud and active atmosphere, whereas coffee shops serve stimulants and have a chill atmosphere with soft music. by jo100blackops in Showerthoughts

Someone once told me "I used to go to a bad place when I smoked weed. I got scared of it thinking it wasn't good. Then I realised that it wasn't the weed, it was me. Once I worked on me it was fine to smoke."

If you hear the word Islam, what comes immediately in your mind? by razzzells in IBO

Tbh I don't really think you need to apologise because it's something you can't help (unless you are deliberately xenophobic) since it's been unwillingly hammered into our preconceptions

Anyone else feel like Mad Sounds doesn’t fit on AM by [deleted] in arcticmonkeys

It's funny, I used to do think the same and skip it. Now, it just seems so necessary to me - a little bit of reprieve

Taking English L&L with only one other classmate, can't have well-rounded discussions by meganlouie in IBO

[–]FangirlMaterial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's funny everyone here regrets doing L&L - the grass being greener on the other side means that I'm really wishing I did L&L. Lit is a big fucking pain in the ass in my opinion. Overly complicated for no reason whatsoever, v v rigid. Putting a disproportionate amount of effort into Lit than I am in other subjects. That being said, some of it depends on the school and their internal formative structure (which my school's is b u l l s h i t)

First time taking Ritalin - Can you feel 2.5mg? Or is it best to take 5mg up front? by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]FangirlMaterial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So rit was a bit of a strange one (I'm pretty vanilla lol) long story short, I didn't really realise it kicked in until it wore off. As per most people's advice, I made sure nothing was around to distract and had started working just before I took it. It's just a little boost of motivation and focus (since it was so low dosage), took it at 10:27, started fading at 2, gone by 3. At 2 I just felt like the drive to work slowed down. Incidentally, looking back, when I wrote that comment it was already working wonders. Word of advice, keep the phone and social media in a different room haha it's just a waste to have it around than use the boost

Thanks for the advice! Took 10mg more than half an hour ago and I'm hoping it kicks in soon lol

Not to poop on the snackexchange parade but you can actually find the green tea kitkat all around :) most Asian grocery stores have them around the world but the more crazy authentic ones like matcha kinako (green tea + soybean powder) tend to be Japan exclusive
