I don’t know whether entheogen was the material in question.

En-theo-gen, where 'theo' is the same as 'theology', roughly means 'to commune with god', so it's any psychoactive substance used religiously. It covers everything from the wine in christian communion to a witch's psychoactive sybian, haha.

Forgot to thank you for the clearly knowledgeable response!

Any time!

I'm pretty sure him wanting to send ADHD people there are why he's not calling them concentration camps.

I'd fess up about it. You were acting irrationally, and it's going to be better to hear the confession from you, and not learning about this because somebody on IG reached out to him. Because it was a livestream, you can't really hide it anyways, there's receipts.

This is honestly the sort of stuff that therapy is really good for, but I know therapy can be inaccessible, so no hate if it's not something you can do.

A'ight, girl to girl advice here. I think you're so afraid that your partner is going to turn into a replica of your ex that you're willing to nuke the relationship first.

What you've said in your post doesn't really have much to do with your bf. Your ex would compare you to other girls, but has your current bf done that? Your dad would fight with you instead of talking, but does your bf do that?

I just feel like I give so much of myself and my happiness, even faking it all the time, to not feel it in return.

Stop faking it. Worst-case scenerio, people assume you're acting a certain way to manipulate them, and that's not really wrong. They can't read minds, so they don't know you're hiding insecurity, they just know you're hiding something.

You also can't give out fake and expect genuine in return. I'd be willing to bet that some of the friction you're feeling is from people trying to fake it back. If you want to trust a partner that trusts you, you can't have fake getting in the way.

It sounds like a few different things got mashed together there. Ergot is a hallucinogenic fungus that grows on rye, and is speculated to be the cause of some of the witch panics. It's not the same fungus found in Roquefort, but it is what they use to make LSD.

Witches flying is hypothesized to be entheogen use, since a common side effect is feelings of floating, flying, or otherwise 'being high'.

This is why I sorta roll my eyes at the people who cry about the sarcasm tag. Poe's law is too strong, it always wins.

Oilskin jackets used beeswax cut with a drying oil like boiled linseed to keep it thin and flexible. The same drying oils get used in oil paint because they polymerize into a nice paint-like finish.

I don't know of any nearby marinas that offer internet connection. You're pretty much stuck with satellite if you want reliable internet on a boat.

Ohio, Oregon, and Oklahoma are gonna have to brawl over who gets the OSU name someday.

You're also forgetting all the people who live on a boat instead of buying or renting property. I live in a coastal state, and some marinas work like trailer parks, where you pay the moorage fee and they supply water/sewer/electric to your boat.

Why even cheat on that? The universe has a billion ad examples.

I'm not one of your students, but I do remember how I thought in high school. Both of my parents worked, so I was the one that had to cook dinner and help my little brothers with their homework, then I had multiple hours of my own homework to do.

While I do enjoy analyzing media, the homework I struggled with would get priority. I was the oldest, so I didn't have anybody to ask for help with questions, and often had to spend a larger amount of time than intended on topics I struggle with. So, I'd waste the whole night struggling with algebra and chemistry, then do the remaining 'easy' assignments as quickly and carelessly as possible so I could get to bed before midnight. Getting points knocked off for shoddy work is far preferable to getting a zero for not doing it at all, and if I could get to bed at a reasonable time, I wouldn't lose points in the morning class for falling asleep.

It just... makes sense to cheat sometimes.

I'm sorry, I think you meant to respond to another person. I was talking about Ilovethebomb statement of "this was pictures of the artist naked, not erotic art", and wanting clarification on where that line is drawn in their mind.

Nobody here is arguing that the artist shouldn’t be able to make money selling that content as art.

I was 13 when mom graduated with a degree in fine art, so maybe I've just seen it more, but there are tons of people who think nude = porn and porn =/= art. I'm not saying you think like this, because I've never talked to you before, but the sentiment is super common in western culture at large.
