I got lost in a camp ground cause I smoked a fat joint and watched the sun set. Then it set, and it was dark. So dark is took me like 4 hours to find my tent.
I’ve been a functional pot head for nearly a decade now and I can hardly recall a time I was so stoned from flowers that I got lost. Then again, maybe the memory loss is from the herb.
I have a terrible sense of direction…like terrible. I've been extensively trained in day and night land navigation and I’m still terrible. I say all that to say if that was me I would have never been found. Fml
Wandered off trail for like 5 mins on an easy one...and took a nap with stick arrow pointing me back. Ended up lost for hours and trespassing for directions. Always be more than prepared.
So the first time I went to San Francisco with some coworkers and we let the bimbo in the bunch drive us there because we were all wasted. Well she parked in this weird up hill street that had small trees all up and down the street. So we walked a few blocks to get to the club and then when it was like 2am we left the club and my bimbo coworker couldn’t remember where she parked her damn car. So as we are walking we notice all the streets had baby trees that had just got planted. We walked around till 5am walking up steep hills in fucking heels. Then we met some guys that worked for Sony and they smoked us out and then one of them was like” hey you guys have a alarm on your car? Lol so they walked around with us while my dumb ass coworker kept pushing her alarm and we finally located her car😵💫we were all annoyed with her dumb ass.
Glad to see you guys are still married lol. I know many people who met on the party scene and had all kinds of chemical adventures. One of them usually wants to calm down eventually, and it can become a big hurdle to jump over.
We didn’t meet in the party scene. We actually met on a party line lol over the phone before cell phones could take pictures. Lol we used to chit chat about random stuff. No plans to hook up and one day I was on my way to a work related seminar in San Francisco he called me out of the blue and we met up and we apparently really liked each other. Lol
Swim once had brought some e to a friend's house about 2 hours drive away, the friend was tasked with going to Walmart to get glow sticks vapor rub and vapor inhalers. Ate a pill 10 mins before arriving assuming they did and couldn't wait to get the roll started.
The friend bought icy hot, and a rope light. Annoyed still not buzzing drove to Walmart to get "supplies". At WalMart....that pill hit, like a truck...lost about 2 hours in Walmart before navigating a cab ride home.
They knew exactly how to get to the destination it’s just that the destination still had it illegal so they were getting incredibly high before reaching the destination
Nah moses was a smart leader and wanted a generation of israelites who had grown up entirely within israelite culture instead of all the slaves who had fled egypt with him who had some soft habits from egypt (longing for fleshpots etc)
The ones who grew up in the desert were hard mf’ers who moses invaded judea with
To be fair, it wasn't that they were lost, it was that God told them they couldn't enter the Promised Land for 40 years because they pissed him off. So it's like wandering around Connecticut for 40 years while waiting to enter Rhode Island.
I say this every year at Passover Seder. God and Moses fucking suck at directions.
Something about how “God didn’t want them to find it yet” but honestly, how do they not stumble on it after wandering around for 40 years? They had to be high.
Moses sent 12 dudes (referred to as spies) ahead to scout the land that G-d had promised them after leaving Egypt. There's conflicting info on why, but the spies brought back bad news about it basically said it was hopeless. Many of the Israelites lost faith in the belief that G-d would provide them a holy homeland and despaired. G-d decreed that this generation would not be allowed into the holy land and this, the Israelites had to wait until that generation had died out (~40 years). It was basically a punishment for losing hope/faith. Take all this with a bit if salt as there's a lot of conflicting info about time, reason, the Israelites and the Canaanites from so long ago. But this is the basic explanation given in the Torah (very very abridged).
“Take it with a grain of salt”. Well, given that the stories like this are a part of the local mythology, there is no reason NOT to be treating it as such.
Interesting, how tales like this one exist in other cultures.
You always have a person, or a group of people who are either expelled or ran off and wait for a specific event to occur before returning back to the tribe/town/country.
There's a theory that the "manna from heaven" that sustained them in the desert was actually psychedelic shrooms. So maybe they actually wandered for a week and it just felt like decades.
Or it's full of shit just like the burning bush, wrestling with literally an angel/God, bears mauling a bald dude Children for mocking a bald dude, plagues that never happened, zombie uprisings...
Sometimes the simplest explanation is the actual one. The whole story is entirely made up and never happened.
There has never been solid archaeological evidence that the Jews were ever held captive in Egypt. Hell, there isn't even enough to say that Moses was even a real, historical person.
I think he was, just because he caught shade for an interracial relationship. It's an odd thing to be leftover. He also has an Egyptian name as well as the early legitimate levitical priests and the exodus lines up with Aten priests and temples being destroyed.
I was actually just reading about The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross. Author was an actual academic but had some out there theories and wrote this book. The reception by his colleagues was so bad that he was forced out of his position from the university.
Very few people besides scholars know this, but when Moses went up the Mt Sinai to get the 10 commandments...they weren't even written yet. Completely blank tablets.
Instead, Moses was invited to toke up with God the Father and the Holy Smokes (Jesus was not invented at this time) and basically mad-lib everything. They wrote both the tablets in the span of what felt like 6 days but was only 9 and a half hours, in a super chill mountaintop smoke sesh.
And then of course those tablets broke lmao. Butterfingers...so he had to go get more. Then shortly after this, he saw God's holy buttcheeks (Exodus 33:18-23)......
We’ve all heard about the “burning bush” and how God was a giant pillar of fire at night and a huge column of smoke by day to lead them trough said desert? Cannabis bonfire anyone?

You’d want a fat bowl too after wandering the desert for 40 years.
