A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Amphetamines like that will do more harm than good and it's not really a stable high as far as drugs go. Plus, testing coke is a pain as you don't really know what it is cut with.

Yeah, of course. Amphetamines can be used medicinally, but it's better they be amphetamine salts and are used on a regular schedule. I have been taking Adderall for years, and after so long, it's a chore to constantly use them. Also, the long term side effects absolutely suck ass. They work, but I would rather not take them any more.

Yeah I'm not really recommending it. I'm just trying to say that guy has the wrong idea and is gonna be pretty shocked when he realizes what ride he's getting on.
