When I was a conservative piece of shit, in my younger days, I had the most outlandish bumper stickers you can imagine. Probably more outlandish than you can imagine, actually, 99.9% likelihood. There were quite a few. I knew I was being an ass and I loved when it offended people, because I was miserable. Someone was paying attention to me. I was getting a reaction. I existed! Anyway, yeah, it can be as simple as "they get off on ruining your day cuz they're miserable pieces of shit." Speaking from experience.

Thanks for sharing. I'm glad you are feeling less miserable now.

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 22 points 2 weeks ago

Thanks. Take lots of psychedelics, everyone.

Good job being less of a piece of shit and congrats on the happiness. Any advice for helping people out of there?

Tl;dr version:

Take mushrooms in Amsterdam, say "it's not doing anything" and also take your sister-in-law's portion (turns out everyone is going to bed so you're on your own for this first psilocybin trip, which should make it easier to...)

Cry for five to six hours, finally lose religion and 80-90 pounds (over next 6-12 months), get medicated for ADHD (not currently, but sure helps), continue occasionally microdosing and/or smoking pot until everything finishes clicking.

Ok so I've got to make like the CIA and put lsd in fhe water supply? Got it. /s obviously

Funny though as me and a friend found religion through acid, though we stayed progressive. I do really wish more people would go trip in pursuit of better understanding of shared humanity

People can change. Even if that baby thinks they can’t.

I worry you're right.

That video is like a weirdly nostalgic confessional of my time in D.C. I was a huge piece of shit. Systematic theology book. Capitol Hill job. Little bitty bow ties. Speakeasies. Pork stuffed potatoes at Dixie Bones. People can change.
