  • I was maybe 10? Or so at the time, and I had a dream where I was having fun playing with animals. I didn’t realize there was also a venomous snake there, too… it bit my leg and it hurt really bad. Then everything went black. I knew I was dead, and could still feel the pain and hear/feel things around but horrifyingly distorted. My family was crying but all I could feel was pain. I floated around until I woke up.

    Maybe 12? I had a dream where I was decapitated. When the sword went through my neck, I could taste the blade’s metallic taste (or maybe it was my own blood? Wait no, the taste went away once the blade was through.) my vision stayed clear for a few seconds as I rolled away from my body… then everything went red, then black.

    Bonus: this isn’t a dream, I think, but occasionally when I’m falling asleep, I get exploding head syndrome. But there’s ANOTHER thing that happens that’s similar, where my body sinks down into the bed, into dark black weightlessness. Every time this happens, a VERY LOUD wind sound starts blowing and my body gets thrown around like I’m in the middle of a tornado, but the tornado is just spinning randomly. Just whipped violently back and forth, then I wake up panting and sweating. Kinda tough to go back to sleep when it happens.




  • I slept like 20 minutes after posting that hahaha

    I’m insanely lucky, I happened to meet someone who gets bricks, doesn’t step on it, and when I occasionally want to indulge, gives me a sheeny solid corner of a brick. When I’ve had coke in the past that was stepped on, I definitely couldn’t sleep for hours after. Probably some cheap amphetamines added to it, I hated it. With actual pure cokes you can sleep like an hour after you do your last bump or line!

    And you don’t need nearly as much, it’s insane. To get gakked, my partner and I will do about .1g each over the course of the night. With cut stuff, I’d have to do like 5x that for a mediocre buzz!







  • The technical prowess on the PS5 is fantastic for the price, but so many games aren’t optimized to take advantage of it. There’s no way its hardware can’t hit 120FPS at 1080p (or 1440p for less demanding games) but publishers lock it down or force raytracing and extra “QUALITY” settings that tank the framerate. If you put a similar computer together, you’re absolutely going to get 1080p100+fps in most games.

    Edit: also I remember arguing so much with Reddit fanboys who constantly claimed it would have ZERO load times ever because the SSD is better than any computer SSD ever… lul.
