My personal experience is is microdosing a variety of psychedelics, including weed. In fact I only microdose weed and never get wasted on it anymore and it’s so much better for my mental health and over all anxiety levels. Getting too stoned has negative effects for me anyway like not being able to function in normal settings anymore! Don’t get me wrong on the odd occasion with a bunch of mates we can have a little bit more than a micro but as an everyday smoke/vape I believe in micro dosing all the way! The more you do it the more you realise you don’t need as much to get the exact same health benefits if not more because you aren’t flooding your Endocannabinoid system. But yeah that my personal experience. I like combining that with mushies and lsd micros…every one has a different function and place so it’s about finding what works for you!

Hope this helps - for me personally micro-dosing is life changing shit! It brings balance and I think that’s what life is all about ;)

Stupid question..but how do you. Microdose weed?

I use THC oil or if I vape only use the tiniest amount

I make oil and butter, FECO, RSO and tincture out of the weed I buy and tincture is easiest for microdosing. Plus a little goes a looong way! I'm in the UK so the grain alcohol I use is just under 70% alcohol so I used to put drops under my tongue but now I put on a sugar cube and dissolve it under the tongue.

I smoke a lot of weed and I can still feel it. Depending on the strain I’ll have between 0.6 and a gram a time and love the feeling of coming up on them. Things can go a bit wibbly but that’s part of the fun. That’s Monday Wednesday and Friday. Saturday I have a day off and Sunday morning do 3 drops of psychonauts leisure time Lucy and walk around all day smiling :)

Haha leisure time Lucy. Love it

We love that name! All credit to you Mamadadah18 and Flower power - we feel a rebranding coming on!

Too late man we’ve trademarked it

On a free to use basis
Good karma :)

love it :) peace to you bud

I've been journeying into microdosing Amanita and Psilosybin with Cacao. Very nice results indeed. Very subtle but beautiful effects. Increased energy levels (and strength). Lots of emotional release too. Combining a THC cookie also has amazing weekend results for me. Forest walking is just sublime, but with presence, peace, and legs of steel.

Do you combine all 3 at once?

I tried with the caps from Gassed.
I definitely noticed a subtle effect / sensation after swallowing the first cap. I’m not a heavy toker tho, weekends really.
Difficult to describe any tangible benefits. I thought I felt a bit more on the ball and also creative. Whether that was real or my imagination I can’t say but it felt real. Would do again.

i think the other flaws of communism would eventually come to the fore anyway. Would be very interesting to see what A.I does with state capitalism however.

What are the flaws of communism? Communism > capitalism surely 🤷🏼‍♀️

The original term ‘communism’ is surely people living together harmoniously in a commune? After all communes date back to the Stone Age where groups co existed.
It worked throughout history, invaders and tribal warfare repeatedly tried to derail what was an effective system of existence….

Marx & Engels write quite a fair bit about this "primitive" communism. Its part the Marxist/Communist argument against Capitalism.

Im sure we have all heard the phrase "oh but capitalism is human nature" but this couldn't be further from the truth. Capitalism has only existed 200 odd years for most of Human existence we have lived in more communistic communal ways.

when Darwin said survival of the fittest, this was not him saying the strongest wins, it is the species being able to adapt and the adaptive trait that shot Human kind straight to the top was cooperation not Capitalism.

surely there is no single element to human nature when it comes to economics. of course people share as well as trade, hoard and borrow to keep it all flowing.

capitalism and communism both arise naturally, it's not hard to see their equivalents among animal populations that fight over the same resources that they share in other circumstances.

I said capitalism has only 200 years not communes existed 200 years ago. But feudalism was still more communal than Capitalism. Peasants worked together on a plot of land that they paid for and were not dragged off to choking factories and confined to dense urban populations like the 1800s.

Before feudal rule however & things like the Enclosures in Europe, tribal community was the default for most human beings.

I recommend reading Marx and Engels early works or if you prefer a more modern take there are plenty of authors who have covered this section of history.

"what if those people were a.i. programmed to control the system" - we have this part, try working for uber.

"at 0 cost" - this is the communism part. possible with open source ;)

think of what c - suite execs are paid and every one of them can be replaced by an a.i. with existing technology. lots of them are just figureheads already.

Until technology is liberated from the capitalist mode of production & the private patents that create AI, then no. A.i under a communist government or socialist state could be used for good and help toward automation. Look to china where sophisticated computing has been used in public spaces to better traffic flow, keep public transport running and deliver goods and services. But A.I alone wont create communism. For communism to be achieved Revolution must happen first and the dominant ruling classes replaced so the means of production for AI are utilised by workers and not elites.

Also nice to know LB has comrades ;) nothing to lose but our chains baby !

China was the first to weaponise AI with the social credit system they are/were introducing.

As an aside, China just like the USSR before it, remain the barrier against actual communisation. When state capitalism dies out as an valid idea and there's no more pretence of an alternative, libertarian communism will gain traction.

Just a reminder that the China "credit score" myth was a false story pushed by American war hawks and imperialists in the state department -

https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/11/16/chinas-orwellian-social-credit-score-isnt-real/

Nor have they weaponised it anymore than say Europe has when it comes to taking out a bank loan or buying property.

"From the early 2010s, some cities indeed started scoring pilots. However, these gradually became controversial – even in China. The city of Suining reportedly deducted points for government petitions and online comments, Suzhou planned penalties for reservation no-shows or cheating in online games, and Rongcheng for littering or jaywalking. Many of these pilots were later criticized by official media or failed to materialize. The most common critiques were that scores illegally restricted citizens’ legal rights or tracked behavior totally unrelated to the notion of “credit”. "

Going by the UK, if they've tried it, it means they're open to it. And again, vis a vis Europe is not the yard stick an actual revolutionary program would be using. Maoism in 2023 is mental (except about landlords).

Your own source sums it up pretty well -"The idea that China gives every citizen a “social credit score” continues to capture the horrified imagination of many. But it is more bogeyman than reality."

The point remains, one capitalist state may or may not be better than another. Neither have anything to do with communism.

not quite sure a.i. is thinking "under"

It could.

Capital owners already exploit technology to reduce costs and lay off workers, ai is just another part of that.

AI and automation could be used to give people more time off, pay more for less work, improve work life balance etc, or it could be used in the way described above.

As with a lot of things, AI could be used to benefit people or it could be used to make billions of dollars, or anything in between.

Do you mean people living in or taking part/contributing to a commune?

Stalin: You, Mr. Wells, evidently start out with the assumption that all men are good. I, however, do not forget that there are many wicked men.

gotta believe him here :)

good stuff, how about this warning sign:

Who wants a captain who lulls the vigilance of his army, a captain who does not understand that the enemy will not surrender, that he must be crushed?
