- Comment on Legalising cannabis increases use and addiction, unless it's tightly controlled. 3 weeks ago:
The number of times a doctor has said “You know, cannabis can cause depression…” or “It’s a depressant like alcohol”. Like sure, I get that overuse can snap back and leave some neurotransmitter gaps, and I’m very mindful of that. It’s not the best situation to feel off without it, but that’s not always the case. You know what I’ll definitely feel off without? Any prescribed meds. And I’m not even dissing those because they’ve helped. I get it though, it makes their job harder when dosage is near impossible to regulate.
Only once or twice has a doctor or therapist told me “Look, you’re the one who’s used it for the better part of a decade, you know more than me about how it affects you”. I know the attachment/crutch can be an issue at times, but usually that’s because people tend to scoff and assume abuse, and so naturally you feel like an outsider.

For sure. I wasn’t even mad it was rushed and just was stoked to have it on pc. I remember a petition going around cause everybody wanted it so bad.
It was a culture shock when I realized how well later games played lol

To be fair, I did use a controller, so it wasn’t that bad. It even ran way better with the hd mod than the 360 version ever did.
I did get kind of masochistic with it though lol. My last run was a soul level 1 that I think I stopped playing around Anor Londo. If I remember correctly, the archers were rage inducing and I never got back into it. It’s probably still my all-time favorite game, jank and all.

Oh I played the hell out of the Prepare to Die edition of Dark Souls. Keyboard and mouse was the objectively wrong way to play the game lmao
