Reading after edibles is so fun though. I mean everything is fun but maybe you haven’t tried it

I hate reading after I’ve taken an edible.

My mind tends to wander super hard and I constantly get that thing where I read a paragraph word by word, but dont comprehend a larger meaning which then forces me to go back and re-read the paragraph. Repeat ad nauseum

It is harder but I read my comfy books I memorised almost already so it isn’t a problem if I lose track and regain it page later. for me the visualisations when reading get much more immersive and alive if I can get past the suddenly loud narrator voice, it’s pretty funny

I find when I’m stoned it’ll take me half an hour to read a single paragraph because I either get distracted and start thinking about something else mid sentence, or I’ll read the same paragraph several times because I forgot what I just read. The ADD is real lol

Same! I find that things like listening to music way more fun. Oddly enough the songs feel like they last longer too

What happens if you also take some ADHD medication at the same time? Will your head implode into a black hole or something?

I dunno, I haven’t taken any of that stuff since I was 12 or so (cept one time, I helped my buddy clean the shit out of his apartment)

For me, if I’m only a little high while on my meds then I am able to read way faster. It’s like the calming effects of weed + focus from my meds lets me just fly through books. If I get actually high, then my meds don’t seem to have any affect anymore, and I just stare at one paragraph forever.

Jon Stewart being a stoner and Bob Saget being a coke-head were both such fantastic casting choices.

Try reading on a few hits of LSD. 10/10 experience except when you get deja vu when reading a new book and then descend into madness before returning to the book.

Lmao I’ve done this same thing at my old uni. I went to the second floor and asked to look at the language-learning books. Sat down, browsed a few, and tried the learning method on one for a bit to see if I’d like it for an hour, then got up and left. The girl at the reception was so confused and told her coworker in complete surprise as I left.

I think I’ll go find that book online now that I think about it.

… Is it not normal where you guys are to go to the library to read or study? Don’t they have like reading corners there?

It really depends on what kind of library you’re at. University libraries: you may not find a spot to sit if you’re at the wrong time, hell I know a professor who hangs out at a different university’s library reading and writing; major city public libraries: there’s probably a few people doing so and it isn’t weird; small town/suburb/small urban branch public libraries: it’s very local culture dependent, but you’ll definitely find a decent chunk of them seeing it as strange

This only works depending on how baked you are though. I worked for a major metropolitan public library system a long time ago, and one time a dude wandered in smelling heavily of weed, and wearing only one shoe. He came up to the circulation desk and asked to order a pizza. When informed that it was a library and didn’t have pizza, he blinked and looked around, and upon seeing all the shelves of books, he said “Oh.”, and then turned around and left. To this day I never know if he ever found some pizza or his other shoe.

To be fair, that’s on you. If libraries had pizzas, I would start visiting them.

I’d rather imagine a world without monarchs, but with more opossums.

You don’t understand. They have total power but chose not to use it. They just sit there in their little crowns and tiaras and do opossum things.
