In the past, fathers used to protect a woman's virginity and select the man she would marry. This dynamic has disintegrated with "dating culture" and promiscuity, with massive negative effects. A woman's fat actually now plays the role her father should have in preserving purity
@AhRuntz970@QueenofChimeras@glorp_enjoyer@Wifesucker You are a biased moron if you think it's not safe. There's plenty of research and evidence showing that it is. Nobody is telling you to take acid if you're prone to schizophrenia.
@JessAvalos65739@kundalioness@IterIntellectus Alcohol is a drug. Only difference is it is legal. Acid and shrooms and weed are much safer than alcohol, physically. You can't die from them. You can die from drinking. It poisons your liver.
The traffickers make their money on coke and meth.
@GradyIsKing@kaiju_kam@fl00r3d First shrooms trip I had was really bad. Probably cause I mixed it with weed and was new to both.
Just pace yourself and try lower doses. Theres nothing to fear if you don't have a history of mental illness / in the family, and take normal doses.
To be equally desirable to women, a 5'6" man has to earn $175,000/yr more than a 6' man. A six foot guy with $62,500 was equal to a 5'6" man on $237,500.

The world wants me to die.
My incurable disease diagnosis became global news. It was omnipresent on social media and 1,900 articles were written in a matter of days.
Many were saddened.
However, joy dominated the commentary.
People pointed to schadenfreude, the pleasure of another's failure. Yes, there’s that. There is a special place in people’s hearts that loves to see others fail, especially when that person’s presence threatens their own psychological stability in some way or helps them feel better about themselves.
But, if you look over the social media commentary about me, you’ll see that pattern:
“he deserved it.”
I deserved it because I challenged death. The crowd was running a deeply rooted psychological script that represents the oldest, most deeply embedded stories of human culture.
This was the first story ever written down, 4,000 years ago. Gilgamesh sought eternal life after losing someone he loved, only to have the plant of youth stolen by a serpent as he bathed. Leaving him to accept his mortality.
Asclepius became so skilled at rejuvenation that he raised the dead. As punishment, Zeus struck him down with a thunderbolt to enforce life and death authority.
This is the story of Jesus. Pontius Pilate offered a choice between a thief and the immortalist, and the crowd demanded the execution.
People need this story conclusion to keep themselves sane. The challenger must lose and the loss must appear deserved. It’s a shield of self preservation.
For if death is inevitable, their existence and that of their loved ones is justified and unavoidable. If death is not inevitable, nothing about their reality is safe.
I occupy the same philosophical and archetypal position as Gilgamesh, Asclepius and Jesus.
This statement will draw outrage and accusations of blasphemy, hubris and narcissism. Nevertheless, it’s the pattern that has repeated itself for thousands of years.
Death has been the omnipresent concern of the human race. It encapsulates our greatest fears, joy and curiosities. The discourse around it changes over time; however, the fundamentals remain unchanged.
What’s different about this moment, that is unlike any other moment, is that physical death may no longer be inevitable.
What if I didn’t deserve it?
And what if I am your ally, and not a threat?
@TheJonnestJon@Muninnreserve They're saying, the Asian guy is worse looking than the white guy and his existence is brutal. Like the fact that he is objectively worse in their eyes. It's really not that complicated.
