"The Battle of the Oranges is a festival in the Northern
Italian city of Ivrea, which includes a tradition of
throwing of oranges between organized groups."

Mohamed have you heard of this? It looks fun lol

the bus do have some stories

i intended to orange one of my classmates, not the driver.
immediately i was like "ohhh shiii" or however i'd have
thought that before swear words were a normal part of my
inner monologue. he was a nice old man, really, and he
didn't last.

he was replaced by a series of tough cookie sorta women. the
sort of thorny attitude you get from a waitress at a diner
who's simply had too much of this shit, with the occasional
lesbian thug for flavor. they were much more suited to the
position

the one i was sad i never witnessed was actually given an
official nickname by the children. after one particularly
memorable incident of searing settle-the-fuck-down rage,
there was a voice from the back of the bus.

"...and they called her... BIFF."

from then on, she was biff. eventually she got fired for
stopping the bus, and telling everyone to get off and kick
those kids asses, they fucking deserve it

my first was "he took a shot to the balls and he's counting
to make sure they're all there"

then i read the reddit comments:

"I wager he's prob checking his testicles after taking a
shot at some point. Looks more freaked out then pleasured."

".. what, never fancy a wank at a game?"

"counting his cock"

mushrooms in a cave and inventing language

but it won't load. it probably needs flash or something

i love snuggling on acid; you just sort of melt into each
other

never had the chance unfortunately, i came to acid a lot
later in life, only ever flew solo with the stuff. having
another person there may have saved me a few difficult
trips, i think. re: melting into one being though, i had the
same girl sat on my lap whilst tripping shroomstyle with
friends from high school... we had a full conversation
without saying a word and both felt like we were melting
into each other. really happy memories, these

have you ever heard of the "rubber hand illusion" ?

LAZY_TITLE

In the rubber hand illusion (RHI),[50] human participants
view a dummy hand being stroked with a paintbrush, while
they feel a series of identical brushstrokes applied to
their own hand, which is hidden from view. If this visual
and tactile information is applied synchronously, and if the
visual appearance and position of the dummy hand is similar
to one's own hand, then people may feel that the touches on
their own hand are coming from the dummy hand, and even that
the dummy hand is, in some way, their own hand.[50] This is
an early form of body transfer illusion. The RHI is an
illusion of vision, touch, and posture (proprioception), but
a similar illusion can also be induced with touch and
proprioception.[51] It has also been found that the illusion
may not require tactile stimulation at all, but can be
completely induced using mere vision of the rubber hand
being in a congruent posture with the hidden real hand.[52]
The very first report of this kind of illusion may have been
as early as 1937 (Tastevin, 1937).[53]


what they don't say in the wiki, which i heard while taking
psych courses, is this: if the researcher is cruel enough to
hit the rubber hand with a hammer, the test subject will
actually feel pain in response.

additional component: i'd spent ages building a modular
synth, and i was tripping. i lost perspective on my hand; it
felt like i was just changing the noises with sheer force of
thot -- albeit with a noticeable lag as my fingers computed
the output

snuggling on acid, it's like the rubber hand illusion,
except you feel someone else's body as part of your own.
very pleasant

huh no i hadn't come across that. interestink! our senses
are so malleable. i remember being sat on the settee just as
i was coming up on acid, and i was chatting with my
"friendly" internal voices (pre-existing, i'd been off meds
for a few months)... i was convinced they were an alien
intelligence made mostly of dark matter so they couldn't
normally be perceived, and they explained to me that we have
64 different senses, lsd unlocking these one by one. and
there's like 330 (i think) elements, hydrogen being the most
abundant in our dimension while it was almost impossible to
create for them

my experiences were quite different. it's a long story

after some things like hitting the bus driver in the hed
with an orange (lord, you better believe my parents found
out) and being a moving blur in kindergarten, my
pediatrician decided that putting me on adderall was clearly
the right move. no, wait, let's try ritalin. no, nope. they
switch doctors and he pulls me off the stims and puts me on
some withdrawal drug. i got my dad to hand over the records
when i was older; i actually need to go look again, because
i'm not sure if i had a seizure as i was being pulled off
the stims or being put on some scary old-skool tricyclic
anti-depressant whose wikipedia page had words like
"genotoxic."

my doctor in that post-pediatrician phase was
this guy. as a psych patient, i'm sure you know
risperdal. i was on a combo of serzone and risperdal for
years. he was more or less being paid a million or two by
bristol-meyers squibb to support off-label use of risperdal
for ad&d and bipolar disorder. risperdal can work for
schizophrenia, sometimes, but the off-label angle was a
pure, bullshit cash-grab. sort of like an older, more
innocent version of purdue pharma.

this brilliant read on the history of risperdal has an
entire chapter dedicated to my former doc

in college, finally on my own somewhat, i stopped taking the
serzone first. then, the risperdal. the world felt a lot
more colorful

part of why i stopped them is i wanted to try psychedelics,
and it was painfully clear from my research that you can't
trip on risperdal at all. balls

i got limp dick and a big pot belly from risperidone, but it
did quell the voices. it was strange, they explained in some
detail their own weakening power / absence - how they were
"playing along" so that i would be released and they could
keep up with the gang stalking etc.

i was pretty stable on risperidone but i was drinking so
heavily after a while (now staying in a homeless hostel)
that it overwhelmed the meds and i got heavily into benzos
and synthetic cannabinoids. long story short i got my own
flat, got into legal speed (3f-pm and eph) before acid
pretty much cured my alcoholism and several other
personality defects. shit saved my life in some ways but
also sent me pretty wacky, it was kind of a double edged
sword. i got sectioned whilst i was actually tripping,
handcuffed etc. not fun

now on flupentixol injection biweekly plus a substantial
amount of olanzapine. almost no voices. frighteningly sober.
bish bash bosh

you don't seem like a candidate for risperidone btw man.

heading in the same direction

it was a cash grab, like i said. they needed a new
blockbuster drug for their bottom line, and they picked
risperdal. then they started paying off the guy writing my
scrips to produce data to support off-label use. my mum
thought the world of him. they would talk with me there,
saying i hated this, as if i wasn't in the room. regularly
had to get blood tests and EKGs half to make sure the meds
weren't nuking my organs, and half, i'm sure, for his
fucking data points.

i will say this -- referencing the other thred -- when i
had my wreck, first thing i did was call mum. first
thing she did was say, "are you ok?" as i was sitting
sideways in the fast lane with air bag dust settling

we had furious arguments over it. quite heartbreaking
really, she trusted the asshole. she forced me into it out
of genuine concern

i remember my final meeting with him. i had thought ahead
and i had a prepared analogy: "you're trying to water a
garden with a firehose." his immediate response was, "if my
car is broken, i take it to a mechanic." my parents had fed
me this line many times, and immediately i realized where it
had come from. i was, to say the least, angry. i left, and i
haven't seen him since.

it's worth noting it just helps to tell my story. i have no
interests in lawsuits, vengance, whatever. but let it me
known that i did decide, "oh, heck, i'm more or less a giant
science experiment already" and carried on with it.
