THE NEWBIE WELCOMING THREAD

Switch to android. Problem solved.

When I hit the three lines, this. Which of these lets me upload an avatar? I’ve been through the lot n+1 times. Impasse; frustration.

Changing to my dead desktop or a different os is not an option. Nice meeting you fine folks, but this interface is cruelly indifferent to a class of user.

If you’re on your phone, you’re going to have to enlarge the screen where the three lines are… Just like @Rdp77 said. The damn edit profile is under the three line.

When I enlarged the living (!) out of it, I found a tiny window that lets me edit. Sorry about initial drama.

Nicotine huh? You a junkie too lol?

Quite the checkered past here in terms of discretionary intoxicants. Retired chemist (expressive shrug.)
The one I miss is ketamine.

You’ll fit right in

I prefer psilocybin 😵‍💫

I'm glad that things worked out in the end.

I like that the three horizontal lines is known as the hamburger button or menu.

I’ve found the classic psychedelics to be too much hard work. I worked down the hall from a talented indole chemist and whipped up a batch of a psilocin derivative that was supposed to be a one-hour quickie. Thirteen hours in, and I was still fighting to keep it together.

Took a half-dose once and it dropped me into several hours of paralytic panic anxiety. Verdict: nope.

I do regret never having come across any real LSD that possessed the trinity: identity, purity, (precise) quantity.

Ketamine, now … it melted reality with a built-in cap on anxiety. To misquote Dr Seuss: Oh the places I could go!

Interesting how times have changed. 50 years ago or so we had to drive to Nacogdoches, climb a fence, keep an eye out for the bull, and make sure the stems turned blue. Oh, and there was this guy named Owlsley who'd passed his secrets on...but, that was then. Fond memories that I won't be repeating.

Blast from the past. What brings you by?

Looking to create a little mayhem. Now where the **** is @0patience? He still doesn't think newbies should bomb him.

Radio silence. I tried calling him during the Tennessee herf, straight to voicemail. I'm hoping he's OK and just been too busy.

Newbie over here (sheepishly raises hand) who started dragging stogies on and off about a decade ago. I have become a much more committed enthusiast over the past few years running the gamut on taste but find myself comfortably settled into shady territory recently. Also have a thing for barber poles. Migrated back to the armpit of Florida a few years back after all the important things happened in metro Atlanta. Almost semi-retired.
