When IS the revolution? by RampantLionin Drugs

[–]TegaNaft 7 points8 points ago

First lets agree on what the revolution is. If we're talking practical, like real drug policy reform, i'd say we're already in a glacial transition, starting with medical/decriminalized marijuana, continuing through with the legalization ballots of '10 and '12, and eventually, over the next decade, we may see the line shift even further.

If we're talking, like, global-consciousness-reawakening kind of revolution, I don't think it's happening any time soon. I've read a lot of McKenna and Pinchbeck and I love psychedelics as much as the next guy, but I try to stay away from /r/Psychonaut-type thinking. Why? Because the internet is an echo-chamber for the current moment. Important things (arab spring/occupy wall street) share the same coverage and "viral"-ness as small things (Kony 2012/Rebecca Black). The noise-signal ratio is awful.

Real change in the hearts and minds and, most importantly, the behavior of people is something you can really only observe in retrospect.

If that sounds depressing, just remember that psychedelic drugs exist and you can explore your own psyche whenever you like.

I Was Asked to Read a Book. It Was Not Good. by Bukkheadin writing

[–]TegaNaft 13 points14 points ago

Tell him, without nitpicking, that the book has flat characters and a poorly structured plot. Suggest that he read more of the kinds of books he wants to write and, this time, pay attention to what makes the story compelling. Study them--figure out what makes characters believable and, most importantly, why the reader takes their side.

If he wrote a shitty four-hundred page novel, then he's not a bad writer; just bad at writing. The latter is much easier to change than the former.

7 Symptoms of a Terminally Lazy Writer by JohnnyChronocidein writing

[–]TegaNaft 8 points9 points ago

The author's "lazy writer" is a red herring. The real problem is identity fetish; being a writer. That's not something you'll fix with a listicle.

Do I have a right to be upset? Or am I overreacting? by abbieismusingin teenagers

[–]TegaNaft 0 points1 point ago

Sorry that sounded so abrasive. Really what I'm saying is that you felt hurt by this guy that broke a commitment, cut communication, and then excused all of that by making himself the victim. Suddenly you're the one apologizing, right?

Again, I'm sorry if I sound bitter. I just don't like manipulation.

There's this acronym, DTMFA, it means stop analyzing his shitty behavior, realize that his actions show he doesn't value you (even if he "likes you"), and that you can't change him. You can only move on and DUMP THE MOTHER FUCKER ALREADY.
