  • No, they had 650 doses in their blood, and up to 7mg per 100ml in their stomach (somehow? I don’t how one snorts lsd, let alone how that gets into your stomach, but sure).

    If that’s on an empty stomach, that’s another 70 doses since humans have about 100ml of stomach acid on an empty stomach. If that’s after a night of drinking, it could be a few dozen times more, because having 2 liters in your stomach isn’t weird.

    And that’s on top of what already passed.






  • but wouldn’t that imply an interchangeability that doesn’t quite reflect skill, and even moreso institutional such?

    Sort of, yes. There’s definitely a difference between how an experienced hotel cleaner makes beds and how I make beds, but I can start cleaning hotelrooms tomorrow, without needing other qualifications. And you could also start tomorrow. And so could basically every other able-bodied adult, and we’d all do roughly the same job (though not as well as the person who’s done it for 10 years).

    But neither of us can start tomorrow as a plumber, because it requires pre-existing training. That’s not an unskilled job.



  • We got married for legal reasons. It’s much easier to get married than to get power of attorney, wills, and all that legal stuff done separately, so one day while sitting on the sofa looking at that stuff, I just said “hmm, you know, getting married is much easier”. And that was our proposal.

    We got married with just our close relatives there, because my mom would kill me if I didn’t invite her, and his grandma would help out.

    We DID have a big 10 year anniversary, because we wanted an excuse for a party, but it wasn’t wedding-like at all.
