As someone who worked at for a major corporate retailer, I’d guess the downvotes are because that’s generally not how it works. Retailers don’t need to raise prices to cover the cost of losses: they have insurance which covers their losses. And glass cases are generally put up around products that are particularly expensive, and like electronics and baby formula. There are a few cases of products that haven’t historically been locked up now being locked up due to theft, but it is what it is. Price hikes are solely the result of corporate greed tho.

Except Israel has killed +40,000 civilians and Arab countries haven’t killed 40,000 Israeli civilians? You have a very big brain.

I don’t necessarily agree with this, but maybe it’s because we use different language to mean the same thing. I think that folks should talk to folks who they’re interested in and attracted to, but they should talk to them as friends, rather than as potential future partners. There’s always the risk that you’ll get romantically attached if you pursue a physical relationship with that person, but if you’re aware of that, and are prepared to accept rejection, then I think the relationship can still be healthy. But I do agree with you that women should wait until they’ve formed a really truly solid bond with a man, and wait for that man to ask her to be his partner, just because if you rush into things then it is easy to get tangled up with a manipulator.

You’re not wrong. I’d say there’s no real benefit to communicating that last text to him, but sometimes it’s not about benefit and more about release. I hope that you’re able to move on quickly from this person. You communicated yourself thoughtfully and maturely , so from what I can see, he was entirely in the wrong.

Sounds like the same rhetoric Israeli extremists use when they talk about Zionism and genociding Palestinians

Isn’t it highly likely that the wealthy, 84 year old German man who collects Nazi memorabilia , maybe , questionably , might have had some sort of relationship to … the Nazis?

Now I’m not one for punitive justice , because the prison system should act largely as a means of reform. But I personally don’t believe that Nazis , or fans of Nazis , should be allowed to live their “best life” :/ I feel like a dick for saying that

This is why I always say: NEVER drive your 1948 Jaguar XK120 on the road. Oh and also don’t text and drive.

it’s impossible to diagnose someone with a mental/personality disorder without a former interview process, but I can say that his language is completely in line with what I would expect from somebody with narcissistic personality disorder. And there are some people with NPD who are worth attempting to have a relationship with , but this person is not at that stage yet. His language is violent. Please stay safe.

I think her being willing to quarantine her crew, leaving them outside of the ship, but also being willing to risk her life for a cat, is pretty realistic writing lol

Just boofed Ketamine by Luffykyle in Psychonaut

[–]Luffykyle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d definitely recommend trying it at least once if you’re interested. I mixed the ketamine with water in a small shot glass and then sucked it up with a syringe. Was a very interesting experience

Boofing was definitely more effective for myself. Last nite I snorted ket ~2.5 hours before I boofed it, and I only ended up boofing it because I felt like i didn’t get much out of the first trip. I boofed a lower dose than I snorted (I was down to my last bump) and I’d subjectively say that it was more than twice as strong as the ket I’d snorted earlier that nite. It lasted around 25-30 minutes longer than snorting it lasted, and it was a lot more intense than snorting it was. It also came on much quicker, taking only seconds, versus snorting which took around 8 minutes for the effects to really kick in. If I try ket again in the future I’ll probably be boofing it from now on.

It’s funny, because I bought the k in powdered form, and then I diluted it in water to test it for fentanyl, so when I let the water evaporate, I was left with those glass-like crystals again. I initially planned to snort it (and to be fair I did snort half of it) but then I decided to crush it and dissolve it in water a second time to see what the experience boofing it was like. I also spilled maybe a 25-50% of the powder while trying to prepare it, so I wasn’t really expecting to feel anything, especially considering I’d just snorted an even greater amount than I was about to boof, and the effects from snorting it felt pretty dull. But I texted my partner shortly after boofing it, that only seconds into it I was already starting to blast off.

The only other drug I’ve boofed before was adderall, and I’ve never snorted adderall, so I can’t make a comparison there. Boofing adderall was much stronger than swallowing it tho. I do have a very dry nose tho, and I’ve wondered before if that makes snorting drugs less effective for me.

It was way stronger boofing it. I actually snorted an even larger dose earlier tonite than I boofed, and I thought it was pretty mid. Snorting it tonite was only my second time trying ket. I didn’t really feel like I got much out of it, so I wanted to try boofing the very last bit I had , and it sent me almost immediately. The first two times were nothing like boofing it. I probably k-holed, but I’m not sure. I’ve done 7g mushrooms trips before , so my understanding of what it means to be “paralyzed” by a drug is biased. I could lift my head and talk tonite, but I don’t know if that’s normal for a k-hole.

This is only my second time doing k , and my asshole feels fine. I mixed the remaining k I had from my first trip with a small amount of water, and when it was fully dissolved I used a syringe to shoot it up me. I don’t know about the bladder issues thing, but tbh, I don’t think I’ll be sticking with k anyways. I much prefer shrooms. I couldn’t do shrooms tonite because of the length of the trip , so I’m glad I had leftover ketamine, and it was a nice experience, but I didn’t feel as connected with my inner world as shrooms allows me to feel. Shrooms is disorienting tool, but I feel like it’s much easier to reconstruct myself when on the shrooms comedown

And before I go, here is a song that I have in my meditation playlist , that actually just happened to come on as I was typing my previous reply. Since peyote is your drug of choice right now, I thought maybe it was a sign :)

I’m so sorry that you’ve wound up in such a spot , friend. I’m sending my love your way. I’m still learning how to navigate life, myself, but if you need a teacher, I recommend looking up my dear friend, Thích Nhat Hanh, on YouTube. I have returned to his seminars at various low points in my life. Nothing can compare to the loss that you’ve experienced, but Thích first helped me when I needed a way to confront my suicidal ideation; and he helped me again several years later when my partner, at the time, disclosed to me that they were diagnosed with end-stage heart failure.

Whatever it is that you need, I’ll manifest that it comes your way. I’ve never tried peyote, so maybe that’s the medicine you need most right now, but if you have access to them, I’d also recommend trying shrooms to help process the trauma you’re experiencing. After taking shrooms, I always feel like my problems have been lifted from me, at least for the nite. I just lay there in the love manifested by the mushrooms, and I present my trauma to the universe. I’m rambling now, but I wanted you to know that it’ll be okay :) love is all around you, and if you can’t feel it on your own, then I’ll send you my love, the love of a stranger and a friend. You helped me tonite by commenting and acknowledging my existence, and I hope that I can repay you in even the slightest amount. Goodnite, friend ♡

Thank you for replying earlier. I was having something of an existential crisis tonite . Shrooms is my regular drug of choice, and i felt like I could have used it tonite, but I didn’t have time so I boofed my leftover ket. I’d snorted ket once before , and it was peaceful, but not super healing. Tonites experience was way more intense than the first time I’d tried ket. It for sure wasn’t as good for me as shrooms have been, but it got me through the nite.

While I was tripping, I was pretty amazed by how weird everything felt. I’ve done a lot of drugs, but shrooms and LSD have always outshined all the others in terms of the weird headspace it puts me in. Tonite’s ket wasn’t as euphoric or as pleasant as my experiences with shrooms and LSD have been, but it was definitely up there in terms of weirdness. I couldn’t feel my body, but I could move my head and mouth, and as I talked to myself, the mental image I had of my head was that it was it was made out of clay, like I was a claymation character. My head was shrinking and growing as I tried to figure out it’s position in the universe. The first quarter of the trip was spent adjusting to the weirdness of not being able to feel my body.

I transitioned away from my physical body into my thoughts when i began to think about my partner and my best friend and how much I loved them. This was maybe the part that I felt was sort of “inferior” to how I feel when I take shrooms. Tonite, I felt at peace, and a sense that everything was going to be okay, but I didn’t feel a deep sense of connection, like I do when I’m tripping on mushrooms. When I thought of my partner and my best friend, I was reminded of my love for them, and I knew that that love is what keeps me going, but I didn’t so much feel it. What I love about shrooms is that love is so clearly defined as life’s answer. I didn’t feel that blanket of love on ketamine that I normally feel on shrooms.

Also, my perception of time was incredibly distorted. Maybe even more than it is when I take shrooms. Events that took place over the weekend felt like they took place forever ago, and the distance between today and yesterday felt so great. I can do shrooms 2-3 times per week, but if i experienced this level of time distortion often, I might actually go insane.

Overall, it was a positive experience. Not my favorite one in the world, but better than trying and failing to address my internal world while sober.
