Im fairly certain that what I'm about to say will be disliked by ketamine users and abstainers.
Ketamine is garbage at everything besides temporarily lobotomizing people. It works for it's many uses because it makes the user stupid. It's often given to suicidal people, not because it's a miracle drug, but because it incapacitates them in a safe manner.
That said, it's great at making people too stupid to be able to hurt themselves, most of the time. It's great at numbing psychological pain because the user will be too stupid to conceptualize their own thoughts or realize where they are physically.
It's also hard on the urinary system and has a fleeting high.
If you like ketamine then by all means, you do you. If you may be interested in trying ketamine, become a zombie safely, just don't expect it to cure your depression, woes, or any of your other problems.
I mean my wife sure is more productive around the house on amphetamines and morphine, and my kids sure are easier to deal with at bedtime when they take their heroin.
Unfortunately a corporation is a person. Worse yet is when they are a very rich person with actual product and capital.

I noticed immediately that Lemmy was far less vitriolic than reddit was, but that seems to be changing quickly.
Some of my comments are entirely satire. Some are formal, but a lot of them are my not-so-hard takes or opinions on general bullshit. One of the first comments I made on lemmy a few months ago was still how I feel about social media. Once the "/s" is necessary to distinguish jokes from reality in a community, hate has already won.
While a lot of my comments are generally well received, I've been finding that my purely satirical comments have been being disliked at increasingly larger rates, seemingly because users aren't sure if I'm joking or not. Maybe it's the audience changing or maybe my satire isn't landing, but that leads me to something worse.
What I find is a more dismal indicator is that my inoculous opinions aren't being refuted, I'm just being called stupid for having them. I don't think I've outright insulted someone, or called someone stupid since I was an 11 year old on AIM, but that is what seems to be becoming the norm on lemmy.
Now I'm not saying i can't take the bullshit. Ill embrace it when given, but if this place was supposed to replace reddit, or be a more free and accepting group or communities, it's failing. Newcomers aren't going to stay here long if we can't get along, and communities aren't going to thrive with toxic echo chamber tendencies.
Anyway, if anyone wants to have tongue in cheek banter, too bad. I'll be watching Latex Angel and hotkinkyjo videos. HKJ can fit entire human leg in her torso.
Edit: I also seem to have a follower.(?) I find it odd that most of my comments have a single downvote. Maybe I'm wrong, but if I'm not, downvote away stranger. At least I know you care about me.

I had a specific problem today that googling didn't help (it was a google account problem, go figure). I added reddit to the search terms and clicked into reddit for the first time in months. All I can say is that their UI is purposely horrible. Like, so fucking bad.
I would rather join tiktok than use reddit at this point. That should sound like sarcasm, or hyperbole, but it isn't. Lemmy is feeling like the last social media network I'll join, and as soon as lemmy gets to the toxicity levels of reddit, which no offense but I feel will be soon, I'm probably going to be the weird person that just uses their phone to call their family, utility companies, and watch hardcore anal fisting, footing, and prolapsing videos.
My wife's doctor left the state hospital a few months ago. We didn't find out until her prescription wasn't sent to the pharmacy. Had to call the hospital to find out. They didn't distribute the doctors patients, and they didnt even call in the prescriptions that only required a yearly check.
That's the most tame story I have about that hospital and it's the most luxurious hospital I've ever seen. It looks like a 4 star hotel. I considered suing them at one point but a family lawyer told me it would be too hard to prove fault, even though they were clearly at fault.
I've ingested a ton of ketamine myself, so theres no pearl clutching here. I'll be back tomorrow to continue arguing semantics.
