No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Yup! I have aphantasia (inability to mentally visualize things), so I had hoped that LSD would give me some really fun, trippy visuals that I was otherwise unable to come up with in my own head. Unfortunately, I didn't get that, BUT instead what I experienced was seeing the colors of everything around me start to breathe. I don't know how else to describe it than that; the objects themselves weren't breathing, but the colors the objects were made of, were. It was like the colors would glow vibrantly and hold that glow for a moment, and then "exhale" with the colors fading out and around until the object was a dull, muted color. Then it would slowly brighten back up until it glowed again. Everything I looked at had its own unique rate of "breathing", nothing was in sync.
Nobody else in my group had anything like that. They all talked about seeing geometric patterns, shape-shifting, heightened empathy, etc. My experience was way more mild compared to everybody else.
Also, while I didn't have an intense visual experience, I did have a hard time focusing my eyes on anything, and everything was very blurry for a few hours. That made me feel very nauseous, so also be prepared for the possibility of throwing up, OP.
That's how mine went too, we have similar brains I guess
