And when employees bring their lunch to work? Will they ban bagged lunches? This is defying logic. I want to know what restaurants are paying off what politicians. Watch the next ban be on home kitchens- ha! The bigger issue politicians sho

The book “Sapiens” by Noah Harari provides a historical anthropological explanation of the powerful role stories play in forming conciousness. Stories mediate conscious experience and form the basis of reality as we know it. It’s difficult

The context would have helped immensely. Instead I had to read the first half of the article again after I finished. The author captures the essence of the vapid absurdism permeating social media, and our culture more broadly.

How do they know if what they’ve taken is actually LSD-25, and not some research chemical? Research chemicals pawned off as LSD is more common than ever. They are dangerous psychotic inducing deugs.

I’m with you. It’s been a struggle to reconcile life on it and off it. For six years I pinned. EW or EOD or ED. I got tired of it. It was consuming, and I felt like an addict. Testosterone is a carnal experience. I got tired of the mood swi

I’m a huge proponent of safe psychedelic use, specifically LSD. I was massively depressed and suicidal growing up (I had family problems, and two of my best friends killed them selves at 13 and 17). I dropped out of high school. I experimen

Not to be critical, but I find this article to be uncompelling. I began working out when I was 13. After college post 2010 I experimented with Testosterone, from 200mg a week to 600mg a week. It’s a whole underground culture. My own experie

Work at the biggest and best company you can, with the best position you can get hired for. There is invaluable brand capital, and the network is priceless. It’s the same rationale between choosing colleges. I attended a top 14 university.
