Obsidian can be almost anything you want it to be. Try searching out some videos from folks who use Obsidian for journalling.

Just an FYI for OP, you don’t actually have to smash anything, tapping the boat’s prow with a bong would be an acceptable tradition/blessing too 😊

I assume that was a US only thing (maybe US/CAN?). I’ve been playing NMS since it was first around but don’t ever remember this - looks like it would have been fun.

I used to be one of those people. It was a much different place then. It genuinely felt like a place to share useful information and help others or connect with folks from all over the world. If you had a question, or needed to fix something, it was usually pretty easy to find.

I used to prefer Altavista over Google as I found it served results closer to what I was looking for.

Now most of the internet is trash - pages and pages repeating the same crap, useful information or tutorials are hard to find without first wading through irrelevant search results or tutorials that are unhelpful but know how to capture the algorithms to generate cash, my ad blocker now telling me it’s blocking hundreds of ads instead of just a few, tracking and spying almost everywhere, clickbait hot takes, artificial and disingenuous lifestyle filtering, information desert eeeeverywhere…

Many days now I long for the internet of old.

Ironically I also just got an email from on online service encouraging me to swap from 2FA logins to Google (or Apple) logins because it’s “part of [their] commitment to [my] privacy”. 🤦🏻‍♀️

uBlock Origin. Annoyances, and Fanboy Anti-Facebook is also enabled. I’ve noticed lately that a fair number of ‘sponsored’ ads have been slipping through. Facebook is always freaking Whack-a-mole with ads. This so far takes the cake for shady advertising practices though.

I have ads blocked and avoid using Facebook as much as possible but this insidious ad literally slid out of the bottom of the video I was watching (part way through the video) and would not let me close it or bring up the menu - clicking on either of those things just acted as though I clicked on the ad itself.

Facebook taking shitty advertising practices to a new low.

The first thing to remember with a green out is that you can feel like you’re dying even though you’re not. So first step is to be psychologically supportive - calming, quiet, supportive and nurturing. Reassure people that you won’t die from a cannabis overdose, it just feels awful but it will pass. Lots of reminders that it will pass.

THC metabolites are water soluble. You want to flush them out. So drink lots of water. I STRONGLY recommend using electrolytes in water though. Coconut water is great, sugar-free electrolyte drops otherwise. Sports drinks as a last resort. Even just putting a pinch on salt in a glass of water is better than plain water. This is because too much THC can plummet your blood pressure and drinking plain water or getting deficient in electrolytes will make low blood pressure even worse.

You can also drink things that have a diuretic effect to get your body flushing fluids faster. I don’t recommend coffee though or anything with large amounts of caffeine because that can make you fee worse. I’m personally fond of rooibos tea. Skip this if someone is vomiting.

CBD can help offset the unpleasant psychological effects of greening out. B-Caryophyllene and limonene terpenes are also great for this (black pepper is high in Caryophyllene which is why it works as a remedy). Think pepper, cloves, rosemary, Oregano, cinnamon, and citrus.
Bonus make a spicy mulled citrus drink (add a little ginger for nausea) that does double duty to help flush out the THC and calms and soothes with its warmth and terpenes.

After the vomiting is past or once someone feels like eating, the usual fatty hangover foods work wonders. 😊

I don’t think that’s a Japanese emotion. I think that’s just a culture of sexualising underage girls and creating a ‘reason’ why it’s OK to cause pain to a young girl by implying, “Oh, actually it’s OK because even though she’s distressed she actually likes it”. I would hope anyone here has the genera intelligence to understand how horrifically awful that is.
