I realllly did not appreciate the degree to which people just lie about other people on the internet and it's just... taken as fact? For example: I often joke about throwing insane parties; I sometimes have joked about playing drug roulette, where ppl get a random drug 1/

- e.g. MDMA, shrooms, alcohol, adderall. I speculated on how we could possibly pull this off. It would be hard to disguise what drug you're taking, especially if drugs hit at different times? How do you disguise taste? It's not a feasible party at all. 2/

And somehow the rumor has spread that I *definitely have* thrown drug roulette parties? Like, there's people online who are confidently claiming that this is a thing I do, despite me going "no, I have not done this." I don't understand the incentives here. 3/

Like A) I would definitely be down to throw a drug roulette party if you could figure out how to get everyone high at the same time (and basic safety stuff like low doses, make sure everyone consents to the drug options), it's just logistically super difficult!

and B) I am regularly open about way more insane shit I do. Weird orgies, naked mask parties, I have helped host parties where people did psychedelics, parties that fuck with rules for behavioral norms, etc. - why would I be secretly trying to cover this up?

Most of the time when I see ppl blatantly claiming untrue things about me, I'm confused because they don't align with my own incentives at all. Like if you were me, it just wouldn't *make sense* to do the thing you're claiming I secretly did. They're obvs not thinking it through.

So idk what's going on. I don't know if the strong claims are coming from people who are quite mentally unstable, and thus legitimately are experiencing some reality in which they hallucinated I did something insane? These are the hardest to understand.

Most other claims come from people who are dramatically misrepresenting/downplaying/exaggerating an actual true thing that happened, and that's a level of delusion that I find to be much more predictable.

yeah this would work for some, would be harder for alcohol, shrooms, or other stuff. but maybe itd be fine? i did really want roughly the same onset time, cause otherwise it's very obvious; maybe if u had an elaborate setup where u dosed placebo every 15 min
