  1. Meat is also like that. Try eating raw chicken with no salt. Butter doesn’t even exist in its “natural” form. Plenty of fruits & veggies are delicious raw. This idea of “the natural human diet” is one ripe for the bin. Cooking does great things to your food.
  2. Are you insane? There’s so many tasty plants. I am no vegan but that’s just delusional lol
  3. Don’t you crave a blueberry sometimes? I can’t imagine my life with blueberries.
  4. Yeah suffering is your baby. You need to cuddle & kiss it every time it starts acting up or it’ll get louder & louder until you give it the love & attention it needs. And if you are anything like me, that means every single day.
  5. Embrace your suffering like it’s your own child. You distract yourself cause you can’t bear boredom. Stop. Suffer. Don’t try to escape it. Scream into a pillow & cry if you need to. The solution is very simple. Cut out the distraction & suffer. SUFFER! suffering is good. You know exactly what to do. This post is just another way to try & weasel your way out of it. There’s nothing we can tell you that you don’t already know.
  6. Niacin & Ginkgo Biloba are also vasodilators you could experiment with. They do work. I was shocked at how effective they are.
  7. Where I live, education is not that expensive but I understand that it’s not the case for a huge part of the world. If you got the money to spare or are a lucky bastard like me you should try it & see for yourself. You can always drop out if it doesn’t fit you. I have class mates from outside the country that have the same courses as me & they pay 4x what I pay for the same thing. I get it if it’s too expensive for you.
  8. Networking, networking, networking. Yeah knowledge is free nowadays but I kinda like it. Surrounded by people that are into the same things I’m into.
  9. What if your attachment to it meaning anything at all is the weight? Strange Fruit Loopy af
  10. What you describe is not health for health’s sake. What you describe is health dogma. If you go vegan cause you read somewhere that it’s healthy but it clearly isn’t for your genetics, you aren’t doing health for health’s sake, you are being stupid & disregarding your health in favour of ideology. Health for health’s sake doesn’t mean you start believing every quack doctor on YouTube. Health for health’s sake means you look at health in the eye & do what it asks of you. Health is never going to ask you to drink too much water. Only dumb humans will do that. Health is well being
  11. Health for health’s sake > Health for longevity
  12. An instant pot & sound proof from neighbors.
  13. Niacin is one of the best ones I’ve tried. Initially I was using as a pre workout because of the vasodilation it provides. But it turns out that more blood flow doesn’t just make you stronger in the gym. It also means that my hands stay warmer & that is a huge help when I am practicing my instrument. So I have been taking it most days for about a month now. I don’t get much from Lion’s Mane to be honest. I use it as a filler for my homemade microdose capsules. I want to grow them eventually though. They look sick & are very tasty. The interaction between niacin & psilocybin has been talked about before in the context of neurogenesis which is more of a long term thing & it’s not obvious what it does to the experience itself, in the moment. I need to test it on a macro dose for that I think.
  14. This my stack Caffeine Niacin Omega-3 Magnesium L-threonate Psilocbe Cubensis 0.05g (half a low micro dose) Lions Mane Creatine I would eventually like to experiment with Vitamin D3 Ginko Biloba L-theanine Ashwaganda
  15. Apple podcast generates them automatically. Copy and paste into a word document.
  16. I think they look better. I wear vivobearfoot. They have a bunch of cool looking models. Now I think pointy toe boxes look grotesque. Nothing is uglier to me than regular-ass running shoes. Dress shoes look nice but they are so shitty that I can’t wear them all the time.
  17. Echinacea didn’t do much for me.
  18. Drink tons of water. You are made of it. Act like it 💪 Sleep a lot. Light movement. Go out for a walk. Stretch. Don’t eat heavy. Eat fruits, cooked or raw vegetables depending what it is, eggs, seafoods, bone broth, fish, white meats, fermented stuff like yogurt or kefir, etc. Easy stuff to digest basically. You can eat the spicy Mexican chili bowl some other time. I am realizing this is pretty basic advice but there you go! I got sick a lot in the winter months & realized the value of the basics.
  19. I would love to listen to Leo & Alex
  20. Mark Manson would be a cool guess for more practical, down to earth self help. I wonder how he would handle a god talk lol. He mentioned using psychedelics in his youth but he tends to belittle them. That’d be interesting.
  21. I like to go with the flow & improvise my training. I am pretty ripped even though what I care about is my health & the enjoyment of what I am doing.
  22. This post made me buy barefoot shoes a week ago and I can say with a fair degree of confidence that I am never going back to regular shoes. Totally barefoot seems undoable to me. I don’t want step on glass or puke or poop or needles. Big city & barefoot seems like the worst idea.
  23. I don’t like lemon tek at all. I’ll be balancing options here. Tea is better. There’s just something dirty about the flesh. Psilocybin dissolves in water fairly easily. Grind your shrooms in pestle & mortar to make it as fine as possible & soak it for a good 15min. No need to simmer or anything. Just pour boiling water on it and let it be. Then strain and enjoy.
  24. Depends on the genetics of the mushroom. I would agree to be cautious if you don’t know the potency of your batch but it could be a good dose. 2 grams of mushrooms mean nothing. It’s more complicated than that. I’d say do a micro dose on the heavier side like 0,2g to gauge whether 2g of this batch would be suitable. If it’s still sub perceptual, 2g would be good. If you can clearly feel something’s up, maybe start with 1g. It depends!!
