like, can you bake while you're writed? write? right?
>>
>>7415734
yeah, sci-fi or whatever; any kind of light reading is chill
>>
Personally I can't I get too lost in it and end up not realizing what I just read.
>>
>>7415734
What? Are you implying that you can read when not baked? Gtfo.
>>
duh
>>
do math homework high

depends on the person

It depends how stoned I am, if it's just a bit then no problem, but if I'm too stoned I can only process one word at a time, the words immediately to the left and right are just a blur. It takes ages to read anything and I'll forget the start of a sentence by the time I finish it.
>>
When baked I find I read and understand poetry on different level, but prose takes more time and can get confusing depending on the book.
>>
i have trouble focusing on literature while high
>>
I read the book of Revelations while stoney. Oh man, if there's anything that'll put the fear of God in your heart, its that.

only very lightly stoned, like 1 or 2 small vapes is perfect

Yea I red Ulysses while stoned off my gourd.
Ineluctable Modality of the visible, Bitches.

Generally I get extremely high on my night off from teaching and read -

fucking love it - reading Borges at the min and love it being horribly stoned.
>>
>>7415734
No, but I've tried reading "Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch" while on acid and ended up running from schoolgirls at a park.
>>
Reading high is the only time I get the "movie" feel from books. But I only read light books. Actually, I bet Proust would be a blast high, I'll have to bring it home from work.
>>
>>7415983
I'm in the same boat as this guy
>>
>>7416500
This desu. I read a Dylan Thomas poem high as shit and saw the entire thing in my head as I read it. I didn't feel I was reading but watching.
I read poetry on a few doses of acid and had a weird time.
>>
No but check the bright side I can baked while reading.
>>
>>7415734
I can read while high, but presuming ''baked'' is fucked up, I can't. Words make my head spin.

Reading this while stoned, drinking a hot chocolate in my university library, looking out over the campus as it rained was one of the comfiest things I've experienced in 2015
>>
never tried, and don't intend to
>>
I can't read the greeks high. Trust me I've tried,
>>
>>7417037
This would be comfy for me, if I didn't have panic and anxiety attacks every time I got stoned.
>>
just watch lectures or listen to audiobooks
>>
>>7417378
Have you tried not doing that, instead of doing that?
>>
reading the Illiad high is tits. literally a movie in my head
>>
I get bored. Looking at art and drawing is fun.
>>
i'm going to say no
>>
I read most of Infinite Jest while baked. Was breddy good.

Read some of the Dune saga whilst baked. Makes the imagery pop and the story seems more immersive. I tend to forget what I read stoned. It's great when reading long fiction books.
>>
Sativa gets me right into it.

Impossible with indica though.
>>
>>7416432
my fuckin nigger. math homework high is actually incredible
>>
>>7417996
I have tried multiple times, but without failure the wave of anxiety washes over me as the high increases, like the tide of an ocean throughout the night. Needless to say I've given up smoking all together.

Exactly. Sci-fi or something is fine baked.

Anything that you don't plan on retaining.
>>
i don't know why anyone would read fantasy if they weren't high. you're on a fucking adventure when you're high

if not, you're just reading a shitty book by some fat fuck
>>
>>7415734
I'm not sure. There are times when I can, but I feel like I can probably read more when I'm not high. The visuals just seem more focused when I am high. That's the only difference that seems to make it better.

I can certainly write better when I am high. The hallucinations come easier. I mean it's easier to write them out.
>>
>>7415975
Like Book of The New Sun and Left Hand of Darkness?

Reading baked is one of the greatest things one can do with their time.

You must have a lot of weed.

Or he read it over a few months, I usually read two or three books at once. I've been reading In Search Of Lost Time for about a month and I'm only halfway through Swann in Love.
>>
Yeah, Tales of the City or Hashish: a smuggler's story. Anything where I have to think too much distracts me.
>>
>>7419077

I went solo camping once for a week and read the first lord of the rings book while getting stoned every day. Didn't see another human being the whole time. Shit was fucked.
>>
>>7419944

I agree. I like to go running, do yoga, read or listen to schoenberg or stravinsky and shit when I'm high. Most of my friends just want to play video games and eat doritos though.
