Does she know…? Does she know she’s an ad?

I think it’s the one with an[object Object] in it

Colons go vertically btw

Does it even have Pfhor in it…?

No, we aren’t prepared, because there is no we. And they don’t have to acknowledge any such thing, because they are literal fucking psychopaths.

“UBI…?” Hahahaha. NO.

They intend to wring every last drop of productivity out of what’s left of the working class, finish the job of consolidating all wealth at the top and leaving us with absolutely nothing. After that, the plan is to keep the angry starving hordes away from the walls of their freedom cities and luxury bunkers and super-ultra-mega-yachts with AI powered auto-turrets and kill-bots and murder-drones and robot dogs with frickin flamethrowers on their heads.

Who knows / cares- it’s a meme stock. Has about as much relation to Tesla’s ability to sell cars as the price of any cryptocurrency has to its ability to be used as actual currency.

Still not nearly as annoying as the French refusal to just say huitante or nonante. “93” is “Quadrupletwenty-thirteen?” Êtes-vous foutant défoncé??

Teens have access to vastly more potent cannabis than their parents had at their age

Oh FFS. I’ve been hearing this same bullshit for the last 25 years and it’s still irrational Reefer Madness conservative fearmongering.

So what? If anything, more potent weed is less harmful because you are putting a smaller amount of burned plant material into your lungs to get the same effect.

It’s not like people just… consume one marijuana and however high that gets you, that’s what you’re going with today. No, you’re going to continue smoking until you get sufficiently stoned and then stop and put it out.

It doesn’t take long for anyone to figure out how high is too high and how much it takes to get there, and plan accordingly.

It might be a vape pen with 92% THC hash oil in it so you take a couple of sippy little puffs and get mildly buzzed and you’re fine with that. Or conversely you can pack up a handful of that leafy brown prohibition-era crap and do gravity bongs until you cough your lungs out, and get a lot higher, because that was your goal.

They sell those oil-soaked kif-encrusted joints here. You do not want to finish one in one sitting. The point of these isn’t to get insanely baked, it’s that one good hit will do it and you can put it out and save it in the glass jar it came in.

As others have explained already- if you have the kind of brain prone to psychosis, weed is likely to push you over the edge- and that’s likely to happen when you’re a teenager, because lots of people try it at that age- but something else would have triggered it a few years later. And yes it’s just universally worse for adolescent brains. It is already illegal, everywhere it’s legal, for people under 21, which is reasonable. But parents need to parent.

The idea that we can and should protect the kids who are predisposed to go schizo by keeping the available cannabis weak enough that no one can smoke enough of it to ever get really high is just absurd when you phrase it that way but that’s exactly what anyone pushing this “It’s so much more potent now!” pearl-cluching FUD is trying to sell you.

Worms!

Although I just looked that one up and they have been making new versions of it continuously so I don’t know if it really counts as an old 90s game anymore.

I would like to see the linearally extrapolated third picture in this series

Evey time I can remember having to use that lever it was because of some fuck driving with their 1.21GW LED high-beams on right behind me, and therefore deserving a 🖕, which can conveniently also be used to toggle the mirror… Two birds with one stone. Either that’s not nearly as universal an experience as I’d hoped or all the Lemmy users who like to drive with their brights got triggered being called out- either way my post does not meet the high editorial standards of the showerthoughts community, so deleting it.
