  • Considering how many people I've heard here in the states say without a lick of irony that we should nuke China/Russia/insert middle eastern nation here for insert reasons here, as if the world's biggest hammer will fix any situation, I think Americans are just obsessed with death to an unhealthy degree. Hell, growing up in the heyday of the Bush years, I couldn't tell you how many times I've heard kids in my class say that themselves.

  • I mostly use edibles, since I prefer those over smoking. Use 'em enough and your tolerance can get sky high. Combine that with poor self-regulation (common in us folks with ADHD, IIRC), and a traumatized past you want to hide from, and overuse became considerably easier for me.

    Regular usage at high doses can result in withdrawal effects, since at that point your brain is used to the heightened dopamine levels. Without the constant party of THC in my system I get unbelievably angry and irritable, mostly towards myself, and threats of suicide become more frequent. Makes me wanna pop another brownie to make the self-hatred stop, cause these withdrawal effects can last a while for me.

    I'm doing better with it lately, but I'm having to do frequent vibe checks on myself, and I'm working on an extended break right now. I dunno how universal an experience mine is, but boy howdy, I gotta be more careful.

  • Zortch is a neat one, less Quake and more early 2000s FPS feel. Pre-Doom 3, pre-HL2 in gameplay, but with the style of comedy and charm you'd get out of a Shiny Entertainment game. Very much a solo labor of love, and it's only like $5 if memory serves me right.

  • That's something I struggle to internalize, even when I'm with my best friends. I dunno how to be comfortable with silence, with a lull in the hangout sesh, it just eats me up and makes me feel like a bad friend.
