    Tech is just tech. People dig themselves down a hole by choice and then blame it on tech. If we were smart we would choose to leave it with 0% friction. 

    “Tech companies are engineering addictive mindless slop trap to increase profit”. Sure that might be true but that has zero power over an intelligent mind.

    Humans will keep digging themselves down any hole they can find. Tech is just the new flavour of it.

    Looking forward to it! (Once I can handle it well)

    Water isn't very good for psilocybin though. Check out this video which is pretty good for comparisons on ways to prepare magic mushrooms for a trip. He also puts the studies in the description of the video that are worth checking out.

     

    I like to pestle and mortar the shit out of my fruits, then cram them into capsules. I can fit 1g in five capsules. I tried every ROA and I landed there. So easy and convenient. I test one of them to see the potency of my genetics a day prior to determine what dose I want. 1g feels like 2g depending on mushrooms’ genetics.

    All these problems are downstream of the nihilism of our generation.

    I’d be curious to ask any of them what nihilism is. I am anticipating a bunch of blank stares and bullshit. I think they suffer and cope with the low attention, fast reward crap cause they don’t know any better.

    That kid stealing soda is so triggering lol. 

    Those police cam videos make me realize how retarded this leftist idea of getting rid of police is. Leftist are being too charitable. Some people will feel 100% justified in raping & enslaving you the same way this kid did for the small crime. Leftists can’t put a mental foot in front of the other and realize it could happen to them or their family.

    That’s the only way you have real intimacy.

    Later on it isn’t about wild hormones going crazy, but rather real love and partnership towards each other, based on full trust, loyalty, friendship + romance.

    The exciting, hormonal stuff is not sustainable, nor real intimacy. It is what immature and unconscious people chase.

    Bingo. Sustainable relationships don’t usually start with a blast of passion. That’ll likely end up burning both parties. Clear headed assessment of compatibility is key. Then you build passion on top of that solid base.

    You could regress the fast to an elimination diet too. See what removing all food except one or two that you are confident don’t cause problems do. Then reintroduce the iffy foods one by one and observe. If I was doing this I would pick sardines & stay in significant calorie deficit but not necessarily fasted.

    Some jazzy stuff is also very good for contemplation mood. Something like Pat Metheny. For me is that + walking these days. I can enter into an auto-critic cycle with a good head space plus feels like walking in a movie.

    I love that guy so much

    Depth ultimately is a matter of your personal experience.
     

    Depth is poetic language.

    Leo hadnt made any arguments that any genre is deeper than another. I think he was pointing more at the fact of the subjectivity it all is cased within.

    Of course. I wasn’t arguing that or pushing a genre either.

    All music in a genre/style sounds similar. That's what a genre is. All rap music sounds the same to me. All country music sounds the same. All jazz sounds the same. This is true of any genre you dislike.

    And don't try to frame your genre as deeper than others.

    Deeper is a bad term. What does it even mean? It’s true that some music genres are more complex & nuanced than others. Does it make them deeper? Who’s to say? Better? If you like nuance sure, otherwise no. Nuance isn’t a guarantee that you’ll like it but it does make it more sophisticated. It’s dishonest to say that all music has the same kind of attention put behind it.

    You can listen to some music 100’s of times and hear new things every time. Try doing that with “baby shark” for fun.

    5th grade math is deeper than 2nd grade math.

    Your work is deeper than Neil Degrass’s work.

    But no music is deeper than other music? Lol

    Do you experience a rather wild compulsion to move when tripping?

    Oh yeah definitely. I have used microdosing too as pre workout many times before. I can disregard the feeling and sit like a good boy-monk but why would I hehe.

    I have used a lot of substances in the past, much less now. Perhaps once a year for me.

    But when I was more habitual and exploring a lot in my younger years, my body wanted to move. Really move. Dance, wiggle, worm. Almost as if there was a separate mind in control of it, independent of what was going on in my brain :) 

    There’s so much beauty and grace in movement. At first I think I was coping. I was moving to handle the surge of energy provided by the trip without exploding. It is not like that anymore. I can sit too now but it feels more profound to move somehow. It’s the harmony, integration and coherence I get from it that makes me weep.

    It’s always so interesting to me to read how normal people experience music. I love that music has so many forms that any ear can find something to latch onto while being so infinitely open that interested ears can dig deeper forever. It’ll find a way to get through picky & open listeners alike!🥰

    You talk about music like a musician!

    I remember that Leo! It was an interesting time. Being an asshole makes your students more independent of mind if you are teaching something of value. Just asshole with no value doesn’t work of course. It was overall great for the community I think. Better than presenting a fake spiritual kindness persona.

    It was a joke. But I always have pain in my knees and feet after walking in the street for more than 10 minutes, which doesn't happen to me in dirt. Barefoot might help.

    I can no problem. I like it, that discomfort is different from the pain in joints of walking in concrete. You adapt rather quickly.

    You can learn. It takes some rewiring to stop mindlessly slamming the heels into the ground but it is accessible. We are very adaptable creatures. Gait has a staggering amount of variations on flat concrete as well as any uneven surface & they are all accessible to you if you want or care. Move between different gaits. The variety is what protects from over use injury.

    It feels like cheating at being a human body at some point. It’s completely & utterly shocking the transformation possible. I used to be so crippled some days would consist of laying flat on my back on the floor in my appartement cause the pain wouldn’t allow me to sit, stand or walk. My feet are close to an inch wider than they were. Nervous system control of the toes is off the charts and the ground reactive forces control trickled up the kinetic chain into global improvements over time that I could have never imagined before.

    It’s the difference between comfort & life-giving movement-intelligence.

    We ain't designed to walk on concrete/asphalt. 

    Barefoot may be better but not in an urbanised environment.

    When is the last time you walked a mile in the forest barefoot? You might realize that you can’t actually do it. Nature isn’t as soft as you guys make it out to be. If you actually lived like you were « designed »(your language) for, you would become so strong that asphalt wouldn’t terrify you. Then what were you designed for? That’s an open investigation.
