in what world is 250ug of lsd considered a “regular recreational” dose? The standard 100-125 that you get on most paper tabs is plenty to have a strong trip for the vast majority of people and 200-250ug is going to be way too strong for everyone except for the most experienced people


I think most people get over-sold blotters. Every now and then there's a study checking how much LSD is actually on sold-as-200ug blotters, and it's typically 60-80. This also leads to heavy overdoses when getting your hands on actual 200ug blotters...


FWIW I once got super high from a bottler. So high that I suspected it was either over dosed or even not LSD. I sent a similar one for analysis. Turned out it was pure LSD and about 125mg as advertised.


125mg is quite strong indeed yes. (Sorry, could not resist) ;-)


I remember that story about Jim Morrison going missing (before a gig or recording or something?) - he was eventually found under a bed, and all he could say was "ten thousand mics!"


If you’re earning 1m + in w2 income, then your effective rate is right about 50% in nyc. If the marginal tax bracket goes to 60%, high earners will definitely be moving. Nyc really has a high opinion of itself if they think people are going to be willing to pay 20% extra in taxes for the privilege of living in a city where garbage is left on the sidewalks and infrastructure is constantly breaking down


If you’re earning 500k-2m from your own business/investments, this might be true.

If you’re earning that as w2 income (as many of the nyc high earner taxpayers are), then yeah you’re gonna be paying >50% taxes if you live in nyc.

Speaking from my own experience.


What was the course?


From memory it was called The Marriage Course. It was offered by The Uniting Church. We are not affiliated with the church and did not find the course overly religious. The session on sex was the most moralistic but no surprises there and the content was still useful /helpful.



Yep that's the one! Cheers
