It’s a mystery chemical

What do you mean? Facing difficult feelings is part of the work.

Do you actually know what love is? Your vibe seems off. How are you different from them? You might not be.

Bottom floor if you happen to be the noisy one!

You work or you are dead. Survival is work. Welcome to reality. Now with that in mind. What would you rather work on? You will work. Make no mistake.

Never two days in a row is my rule as of now & it was easier to do than I thought. I often spend many days without it. And when I do have it oh Woaw. God I love coffee I should get into decaf.

Best argument ever lol

What? Running isn’t suffering. It’s one of the funnest things to do lol.

Check out integration circles for psychedelics. They’ll accept you even if you’ve never done them. Usually open minded & fun to socialize with. Deep philosophy is a solo endeavour though. Even actualized.org isn’t the same as you doing philosophy. I don’t know where you live but most medium large cities probably have one of those circles.

Yeah I can get that people buy a fruit out of convenience even though it’s a bit pricey but how does that apply to AI art? On the beach, selling a soda provides value. It’s hot & people want to cool down & they don’t care about 2$. Is there any context where AI art provides that kind of value? I don’t know.

Yes you can but why would anyone buy it if they also can ask an AI to make it for them at half the cost(or for free most realistically)? Pardon me but that doesn’t sound like a solid offer. I wouldn’t buy it.

Because most humans are doing the exact same you are doing. Namely, they are being selfish & thinking of themselves. Just walk down the street & notice most people have their head down lost in thought. Probably about their life story & how they are the hero of it. The real question is why aren’t you the one doing the praising & the loving to others?

Maple water’s another one. I like to dilute it. It’s surprisingly sweet.

You need to cuddle your dirt & make sure no nasty bugs ruin the transformation. But that’s loooow maintenance cuddling of your dirt. Not a huge dirt commitment. Thank god even trash becomes psychedelic at some point. Trash turns to compost turns to dirt turns to psychedelic. I really don’t want to say this but if you wanted to, you could totally turn your own literal, moisture adjusted, sterilized poop into psychedelics. There are better ways to go about this.

Dirt. Check out r/shrooms & go to about page for links. There’s many books on Amazon as well now on how to transform your dirt into psychedelics.

Coming at this from the perspective of teaching normal people. This is only true to an extent. I have thought guitar & piano to many people & what you are suggesting is not realistic to a beginner. At the point where I am I can learn anything at speed but that is only possible because my mind & ear can keep up & know exactly what’s happening even when it’s fast. To play fast you need to imagine the music fast in your mind & then train your body to execute what your mind tells it to. So from high level perspective you are right. Newbies go at it completely backwards though. They see the fretboard, play something & then hear it. I agree that in theory it makes more sense to just go for fast because when you know fast it just comes out. When I think fast I speak fast. But how do you get a beginner to that state when they don’t know fast AND don’t have muscle memory isn’t straightforward at all. And even if they know fast! They could have been listening to bebop for 20 years & intimately know the syntax already but even then it doesn’t mean that their hand is able to execute at all. I think playing fast straight away is just the natural conclusion of learning slow & then speeding up. It’s like you are building your capacity for hearing & reacting fast. That shit’s not innate. But over time it’s easier to learn hard & harder things. You really can’t expect a beginner to play fast first. Remember where YOU started? ~ Malmsteen just has a nice story that reframes all the practicing he did as playing. Which is very innocent & sweet & I want to agree but the truth is no one is born with the capacity for playing what he plays & I don’t believe that his mind was limited to what his hand could immediately execute. You hear a line in your head & you want to play it but your hand just won’t be able cause you haven’t burned that in muscle memory yet. So you play it a few times until you can do it effortlessly & you move on with your playing. That’s how technique is built & that’s called practice. I guess we are just shuffling definitions for the word practicing but I think what he says is just a nice story for the camera. It’s a great story. It sounds cool.

Dirt transforms itself into psychedelics easily & cheaply all around the world. You don’t have to do psychedelics if you don’t want to but if there is a will there’s a way. It’s like you are asking how can I become ripped without eating & without moving my ass?

Breath holds are fun. In as long as possible. Out as long as possible. Catch your breath. Repeat.

There’s a book called “your body, your voice” by Theodore Dimon if I recall & it’s about the voice but there’s a good portion on breathing. Here’s the basic idea of the breathing with the voice aspect removed: Normal inhales & absurdly slow exhales. Pretty simple eh. I couldn’t tell you the first thing about the physiological observables but it’s a kind of breathing that I practice habitually all the time now not just for singing. It calms you down & grounds you. I don’t know there’s something about increasing your tolerance to co2 & having your default posture be a fully expanded rib cage & diaphragm. Doing “sss” or whispered “aaaah” during exhales is optional but helps to get the mechanics down. Most of the effort is in holding the exhales & letting them out slow. The inhales should be effortless & swift.

Terrence McKenna is a bit coocoo but he speaks beautifully.

100 CAD = 72 USD = 64€ So I pay 768€ for the year & I am student.

Holy shit what city is that? I pay 100$ a month for that in Montréal

Those conjoined twins are sooo cute I couldn’t hold back my tears. People take just being a normal functioning human for granted it’s crazy.

Hit the bell.
