Reminds me of Drunk Jeff Goldblum

He’s great at asking questions too.

I have the complete opposite experience. Weed removes the guilt of not doing anything, but it usually leads to me doing nothing.

I enjoy weed occasionally because it turns off that hyper critical voice in my head, but it absolutely isn’t a magic motivation medicine for most people.

After using pretty heavily last year and taking a break, I’ve realized that the overall effect is fairly negative, because it just makes me way too ok with doing nothing. Sometimes I need to do nothing and take a break, and it’s great for helping me do that, but for me personally, it’s a major negative when I’m doing it regularly.

Obviously your experience is different (as is everyone’s a little) so feel free to try it, just keep in mind that it can get very easy to get addicted to that “mellow brain” feeling until you realize that all progress on all of your goals have stalled out because it’s easy to just be high all afternoon and evening. There are lots of people who can be motivated and productive while high, but I think I’ve determined that I’m not one of them.

I could see the login part being nice, but I still don’t really see the value in federating chat text. Honestly that would be a negative to me, I don’t really want my chat messages copied and federated out to other servers forever. Similarly, why would I want to view a chatroom through Lemmy? Why wouldn’t I just want to go to that community through it’s app or site or whatever?

It just feels a bit like blockchain all over again. Federation and activitypub are great tools for some purposes but people seem to want to use them for everything.

How would a Discord-like application integrate with Lemmy? Are chat logs federated to posts in Lemmy? Do posts in Lemmy get federated to this other chat thing? Can you just sign into chat with your Lemmy username and that’s it? Is it just a chatroom that’s associated with a community?

I feel like people here are like “everything should be federated” but sometimes I don’t really follow the thought process. I get it with Lemmy and Mastodon, but maybe someone could explain what a Federated Discord looks like.

Allison Russell’s album is extremely good. Listen to it.

Yeah it’s wild. The only thing he’s good at is appearing reasonable and liberal. He’s let the city down repeatedly.

I’ve seen it like 10 times, and it’s still great. You can see the killer guy earlier every time, and there are so many good little details.

While there are horror elements, it’s largely just surreal. It’s an incredible video and worth watching, don’t be scared!
