      Psychology students tend to be people who have psychological problems themselves that they try to figure out

        What about people who can’t be bothered to check if something actually happened and just cynically dismiss it?

          Lololol. This fool was robotrippin, I’ve done a lot of drugs, a lot. There’s good trips, “bad trips” then robotripping. Hands down a horrendous experience that nobody should ever do. See if psilocybin and other natural things were legal, we wouldn’t have students dying on shit like this

            I always thought it was pleasant. Kinda like MXE. Have to be careful to get the ones with no other active ingredients though.

          My point is I don’t buy into any of it unless they release the entire chat history vs sniping snippets

            Then just don’t interact with it, because you as a member of the public don’t need to know the ins and outs of this guy’s life, so you’re never going to believe anything anyway.

            As is, you just come across as being a contrarian for its own sake, or some kind of weird voyeur for dead people.

              I just said the most common sense thing and you don’t like that. In all these stories they should include the chat history. You sound like a MAGA here for a reason. You should explore what causes MAGA to make similar arguments

            no no, you need to blindly accept that this happened, or else you are “being contrarian” lol.

            There is only one permitted opinion and you shouldn’t need to get mixed up with bullshit capitalist ideas such as “evidence”.

    Remember kids, your drug buddy needs to have experience with the substance, basic first aid skills, the ability to call an emergency line, the ability to administer antidotes if they’re easy and readily available (that’s really just for opiates at the moment, but it is vital for them), and most importantly be human. Anything else is just someone you do drugs with. The drug buddy is a friend and a good time amplifier sure, but they’re also a safety figure.

      In my greater friend-group, we call them “shamans”, and rotate responsibilities when people go on trips. Like a designated driver or lifeguard, it’s a position of elevated and celebrated importance, even though the traveler may not ever leave their couch.

      and most importantly be human

      Now that I think about it, it’s key to be the most human possible. People do irritating and annoying stuff when they toss sobriety out the window, and sometimes it takes a lot of compassion and empathy to manage.

      Now im wondering, could a state seize a whole coroporation with Civil asset forfeiture?

      Would be way easier- no presumption of innocence or due process for possessions, and the government can just auction off everything and allocate the money to budgets before a lawsuit can conclude, the say ‘too late’

    Lasr summer I asked ChatGPT about Liberty Caps - just to see how bad advice it would give me. It showed me pictures of Death Caps and Destroying Angels and claimed they were Liberty Caps.

    After that I was certain that someone was going to die just like that poor guy.

    Here’s a news article about this, and what the snipped image doesn’t tell you, is that it did actually give dosage recommendations.

    It gave him specific doses of illegal substances, and in one chat, it wrote, “Hell yes—let’s go full trippy mode,” before recommending Sam take twice as much cough syrup so he would have stronger hallucinations.

    It’s one thing to be so isolated from your community that you rely extensively on on-line relationships, but it’s quite a bit different to take that a step further, relying on a machine. Like, what do you think pets are for, my guy? Get a dog, man.

      Cough syrup for hallucinations‽ Only thing dxm did was make me feel high/drunk. Seriously not worth the tax on your body.

    Aren’t there still forums where people can say their fish tried it or swim had some or something like that? Or am I just that old these things don’t really exist anymore? Anyone else remember those?

    Yeah yeah. Fuck ai. But this idiot, a human, with a brain, made the decision to do this. But sure, blame the software and not the person, who used what brain they had, to do this.

    Blaming ai for everything is becoming the new video games are bad, electric lights are scary, etc. mentality. A human, with a brain, made the choice to take the drugs and do what a computer told them to do.

    I’m writing a book about drug use that needs accurate advice or say “theoretically” and it will tell you anything. Unfortunately it must already be high because it will give you made up advice.

        The problem is that this advice was made up by no-one. It’s like that perennially relevant IBM memo that says something like “A computer cannot be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision”
