for paradox fans I highly recommend the author's series analyzing EU4's perspective of history[1]. the role of the player is peculiar in EU4 (and Victoria I believe) in that you play as the state itself, unlike Crusdar Kings where

My biggest problem with most of these libraries is the complete lack of care for efficiency, and some packages use more of these functions than builtins. eg. -map is identical to mapcar (a C primitive), but instead of defining it as a defal

Note that these are still stimulants tho. Vyvanse is unique in that its a slightly modified dextroamphetamine (adderall) molecule that gradually gets metabolized by the liver into dextroamphetamine, sort of a "natural" extended re

Deliriants are fascinating, and the experience sounds absolutely nightmarish. The most interesting thing to me is how the most common feature of every trip of some of the drugs (I think Datura and dph) is repeatedly thinking you're smo
