No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Don't suggest hobbies or human contact. It's been suggested and it doesn't work.

I have a job I don't particularly hate nor like, some coworkers I get along with others are just morons, I go to work, then buy groceries, go home, eat, watch tv, go to bed. Rinse and repeat.

On my free days I do sport and watch pirated netflix. I don't spend much money on clothing or media and save most of my paycheck. What for? I have no idea. I don't eat out because I like cooking my own food and restaurants are expensive and the food is bland.

Everything is so expensive nowadays btw...

Most people bore me. I'm like an atheist monk.

I don't want to kill myself or anybody fwiw. It's like I don't give a crap about anything or anyone and don't see what's the point of living.

I don't want to travel because it costs money.

As soon as my cognitive abilities start to fail I'm going to be very easy prey for any online scammer.

Comparing alcohol to psychedelics is wiiiiild. Psychedelics changed my life. Alcohol mostly just makes me sad and sleepy. Occasionally giggly, at best.

As you can read I didn’t compare them other than using both words in the same comment, lol

You're right, but I wasn't being argumentative, just fyi. My intention was to say, "If you're thinking of them as at all similar, PLEASE DON'T." You should totally give psychedelics a try if/when it works for you, because they're nothing even remotely comparable to a buzz, or being very drunk, or adderall, or weed (okay, POTENTIALLY mildly similar, but rarely, at least for me), etc. It was just intended to share my own experience with the two and how they compare, since you noted you'd only tried the one. But I do see how it could've come across. Wasn't trying to be smarmy and corrective.

I’m sorry misread your tone then and replied such. Thanks for clarifying

Nah, you're good. I get how you took it like that.
