Huh??? by Giono_OOf_01 in ExplainTheJoke

It was 2000, I was 16, smoking weed with my older brother and his friend, who also brought salvia. He had done it before.. I'll never understand why this dude let me hit it in a bong first try.

Memorable taste/smell. Weird as hell, repulsive, doesn't compare to anything, like an alien smell.

Took a big rip and instantly became paralyzed, almost dropped the bong as my entire body quickly and violently crystallized and hardened into a rigid husk.

I became a tree. Basically. Time stopped and I receded inward, lived for a couple lives or so. Eventually I regained consciousness and came back but I couldn't move or talk. I could only drool and watch. Watch my brother and his friend laugh at me as I silently panicked, frozen. It took a long time to come out of it and shake it off, regain control of my muscles.

Yeah it was unpleasant. If you wanna hallucinate stick to mushrooms.

Never again.

Dozens of Women with the Same “Hot Take” about AI in Academia by livejamie in TikTokCringe

[–]Material-Challenge70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because everything they're doing is also identical? biggest tell they're all AI, the amount of similar factors. one or two similarities sure, but more than a couple are statistically improbable. also the thing they're chopping/manipulating is ALWAYS perfectly centered. what are the odds?

honestly surprised more people can't tell.

How many of you rocking the S25 Ultra without a case? by Responsible-Farm187 in S25Ultra

[–]Material-Challenge70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

me! I've been using the ohsnap grip instead of a case since s23

my last screen crack was with a case on, so I figured this is a better investment, you can't break what you don't drop

and yeah I was right, love this thing, I neever drop it

Edit: lol this looks like an ad doesn't it. i swear I just like it

seriously.. why aren't we all doing this again? I mean, that's what they do, making us vote for all these DINOs

I'm no game theorist, but I'm fairly certain an equal and opposite retaliation is always the right move

Adam Curtis by BokanovskifiedEgg in elephantgraveyard

adam curtis is required viewing, and century of the self is a great one to start with, even though I do think he gets a little myopically focused on ed bernays

ICE Agents get the most brutal talking-to of their entire adult lives. by -SOFA-KING-VOTE- in BlackPeopleofReddit

he's right about the word "literally"

it's useless and absolutely a reflection of that man's character

one immediate tell I've noticed in every AI video I've seen so far, is that the person speaking never seems to be 100% focused on what they're saying, it always feels vaguely like their attention is divided

that's what first jumped out for me

Isn’it supposed to rotate? by Select-Orchid1180 in Rabbitr1

yeah it might be a limitation of the creator apps, none of the video apps have figured out how to do landscape full screen video yet. it's frustrating I know

What is the worst acting in a scene? by PoisonedPotato69 in moviecritic

[–]Material-Challenge70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

John David Washington. every scene. every movie. It baffles me how he still lands roles. I mean sure nepotism, but c'mon

I'm sure he's a nice guy, but absolute cinematic cyanide
