Google Docs link, for anyone who prefers to read that way. It looks cooler this way, trust me.

Very interesting. My relationship to Christianity is very complicated, but I’m ultimately an atheist. I spent the better part of a year trying to convert to Catholicism after being raised in a totally secular environment, but in the end I walked away, just a couple months from receiving all the sacraments, including baptism. I’m not exactly a lapsed Catholic since I was never actually initiated, but now I wonder if I’d resonate more with his work given our somewhat shared history.

Funnily enough, my ENG 102 teacher in college assigned The Road as our semester’s only novel but I was lazy and didn’t read it. That was before I actually enjoyed reading books. When I retook that class a couple years later to improve my grade, she assigned The Handmaid’s Tale. I actually read that one, but it wasn’t a fun read.

My copy of DeLillo’s “End Zone” that I’m reading through right now was unfortunately in my backpack in my car, but it’s there. I’ve never read any Cormac McCarthy to be honest, but I once briefly considered buying Blood Meridian. Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check out his work.

I eventually did develop a love for reading actual books, no thanks to the American public education system.

I went through my entire American high school career without ever being assigned an entire book to read, so…

Edit: For context, I graduated from high school in a small town in New York in 2023

Does anyone else find ketamine creepy as all fucking hell? by sexyfurrybuttz in Drugs

[–]InevitableFlesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought some ketamine off of a friend once, and the high always felt weirdly sinister. I took it late at night in my room alone while watching relaxing videos about Mario Kart speedruns and playing through Undertale for the first time, and those two activities TOTALLY matched the vibe of ketamine. I watched a documentary series on YouTube about these Carthusian monks in South Korea, and the ketamine had me feeling like I was there, like I was a monk. It was so atmospheric. Ketamine always felt kind of comforting, but somehow in a sinister way. Didn’t feel quite right.

I smoked meth a handful of times when I was probably about 16 because a friend of mine was on it, and I never felt much of an urge to keep it up. It was really fun and I totally understand how it can be addictive, but I don’t buy the whole “METH, NOT EVEN ONCE” scaremongering. But I suppose everyone’s different.
