It could help while people learn to live with their mental illness.

I'd rather have a good trip every few weeks with a renewed sense of perspective than taking pills everyday that makes me less me.

I don't stigmatize people for taking pills, I hate that we are banning substances that are beneficial to humans because it makes them trip a little.

I am on antidepressants and I'd much rather take psychedelics every other weeks than taking two different pills everyday for the years to come with a multitude of terrible side effects.

There is a lot of promising researchs done with psychedelics, but because of old fucks we're criminals if we literally grow mushrooms.

The way antidepressants are used today is so that we can keep being a cog in the machine.

So my issue with all this is that antidepressants just numb the symptoms, not fix the root cause of the problem. So if at least part of the solution was fun, then it wouldn't be so bad.

But instead, we have antidepressants that makes us productive enough to still work, but it fucks up your gut, your mind, your sexuality and your self-confidence, so that you can make money for someone else.

I feel me when I am human, not a fucking drone 6 months away from homelessness.

The pills make me feel like a drone, but the alternative is destitution.

It is easier more than ever to install linux today.

The issue boils down to the fact that the number of people that never installed an OS is pretty high.

Most people buy their laptop and roll with the OS installed. Microsoft paid a lot to be the default choice and we have the market we have today.

But if you check your email and browse internet, any OS will work.

The strength and weakness of Linux, is that there is many ways to skin a cat. But it can get confusing really fast, even if you are tech savvy.

Habits die hard and Microsoft and Apple were pretty good at capturing the market.

The process to install Ubuntu vs Windows is pretty much the same.

Create a user, choose a timezone, connect to Wi-Fi or LAN and wait for setup to finish. It is not complicated by any mean.

As I mentioned, most people never install an OS in their life, so they don't know how to create a boot drive and install an OS.

So the issue isn't that installing Linux is complicated, it's that installing an OS on an empty drive is not a thing that the vast majority of pc users has done or will ever do.

Have you tried to install Ubuntu recently? It is as straight forward as it is.

It is not a complicated process no matter how you look at it.

Someone else is litteraly paying your mortgage for you because you cannot afford it otherwise. How out of touch do you have to be to say that with a straight face?
