We used to call it E. MDMA I mean. We used to call X Twitter.
Now we just call it a dumpster fire. X I mean. E is still pretty good tbh.
Good old methylenedioxymethamphetamine, where science said “why not” instead of “why” and took methamphetamine and then tweaked it to also dump hella serotonin on top of already having amphetamine properties of stimulating dopamine, norepinephrine, androgens. It’s no wonder people who abuse it can get seriously depressed from burning out literally every pleasure and stimulation neurotransmitter humans have all with one drug. Ain’t your granny’s pep pills
Actually, they added a methyl group to MDA. MDMA is also less potent by weight than both MDA and methamphetamine and clinically safer than both.
As far as abuse potential, it’s basically very shitty speed when you try to take it to often. The primary mechanism of action is way different than methamphetamine. Which makes it very hard to redose and get high again. This means it has a difficult time forming the dopamine reward cycle we see with cocaine and methamphetamine.
It’s also never smoked and rarely shot, which are the two routes of administration that most easily set up dopamine reward pathways because the drug kicks in so much faster than via ingestion.
Which isn’t to say people won’t try to abuse it. But that has way more to do with the person’s personality type than the drug, as MDMA really doesn’t have the same abuse potential as it’s parent compound (MDA) or it’s relative (methamphetamine).
In my experience, MDMA is less addictive than sex or video games and isn’t on the same level as methamphetamine at all (and I’ve shot both).

Not exactly a twitter user , what is tweetdeck?
The only thing that made twitter useable. No ads. You put your lists of people into columns, so you only saw exactly what you wanted to see. No algos trying to shove “you may like” stuff down your throat.
I use it for work reasons but I’m not paying for it, I’ll deal without and start digging into what needs can be fulfilled with mastodon. I stopped using it the first time it broke for a week due to elon and I thought it was over then.
I’ve never used TweetDeck but there is the Control Panel for Twitter, which makes it usable. It can auto-block all the bluechecks with under a million followers, hide the “For You” tab, block ads, and restore the old Twitter branding.
Unfortunately the main reason I use Twitter is not the platform itself, but the public figures that are on it. Mastodon (mostly) doesn’t have that, though there is a trickle of some coming over.
If you continue to use this platform, you shouldn’t be surprised at something like this.
If he means being on X as in the party drug, and being back in his days i think he means the drugs (x=Ecstasy) were more fun than that shit post paradise that is robbing the the porno and hamster industries favorite letter, then I agree wholeheartedly.
Or he just means was on xhamster, or xporn or so forth, still agree.
Now, back to today’s X
Good news for Hootsuite
