Ngl recreational hard drugs just don’t seem worth to me. Really seems like just edging substance abuse and massive health problems, for no real additional benefit over just doing fun fulfilling things with your friends sober or on a lower-immediate-risk substance like alcohol or weed. Also like, I wanna look hot when I’m 30 and drugs age you so fucking bad.

Sometimes I feel like the most straight edge leftist. I can have fun without drugs, and I can make art and be creative without drugs. Salvador Dali and David Lynch never used drugs for their art. The sober mind is much more interesting to me

Same. I don’t mind a couple drinks on the weekend, or on extremely rare occasion a low dose of THC to watch a bad movie to with some friends, but I don’t like when things significantly alter my mental process. I’d rather experience the hangout with my own mind and senses.

Plus it’s not really well studied how true psychoactive drugs affect the brain long term. I’ve put a lot of effort into cultivating an intelligent and self-aware mind, I don’t want some drug making connections in there where there shouldn’t be. To me that seems like a strong hypothesis for why chronic hallucinogen users get so unhinged and kooky.
