This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

A lot of drugs that give you uncontrolled mental energy will give you focus, insight or creativity, in short uncontrollable doses. In the same way that burning down a building will let you see into rooms that you never were familiar with before. For a short time.

I have heard that meditation can give you the same type of experience and insight without destroying you while you are doing it. I can't say I know for sure, but I can believe it.

This is true. I meditated in the desert and gained the ability to see the future.

Big brain melange.

And that's largely what ADHD medications are, they're basically safer versions of meth to help give you focus. Meth use is a huge problem in my suburban area because housewives use them to increase energy levels to keep up with all the nonsense extracurriculars they force on their kids so they can show off to their neighbors.

That said, meth is extremely dangerous, and using any form of medication without medical supervision is also extremely dangerous. If you think you're having focus problems that could be resolved with medication, go to your doctor to get a proper prescription and learn about the side effects.

I sometimes use party drugs and I can say that it does heighten your senses!

Aka breaking your mind's natural focus mechanism.

Also I don't understand this greentext at all?

What you and your distro get up to in private is no business of mine.

She saw anon standing alone and he really took her insult to heart.

Somehow I never heard enough of that song to know it actually had lyrics

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago

This song was my jam circa 2000

[–] sit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 months ago

This song brings me a medium depressive nostalgia and I didn’t even consciously listen to it back then. Maybe I heard it in the radio or in the holidays on Mallorca
