@Leo Gura Thank God I'm not the only one who wishes that was what the Alien movies explored hahah so much untapped potential.

@Leo Gura It's funny cause I literally can't even imagine it being possible 😂

@Leo Gura It's inevitable 👁

Great move Leo. I would love to get involved one day once I have worked through the wrinkles in my psyche that need addressing on a material level, I am also UK based so if it comes to Europe that would be more feasible. I have had glimpses of God-realization but not the full shebang, I don't think I am ready right now but if the stars align and the retreat comes to Europe in a few years then I should be in a prime mental state to undertake this. I understand the urge to get more involved with in person psychedelic healing/teachings. With my YouTube I am often helping people on the daily with their spiritual journeys through a screen which I imagine is great for the recipient but for myself it is very immaterial and I can find it hard to grasp the tangibility of the advice I provide for psychonauts. So yeah I fully get the allure of doing something like this, I think this is the natural evolution of Actualized.org. It is also inspiring to see for me, as I have been asked to get involved in the UK psychedelic society seminars at Manchester University and as an introverted teacher type personality like yourself, seeing you engage with the public is an encouragement for me to follow suit and to get more involved with the wider community. Hope all goes well with the first retreat, I'm sure it will!

No amount of ketamine can "cure" depression I can tell you that much. It is more of a super effective relief from that state of mind, but you inevitably fall back into your sober state once it wears off. It really is a great respite if you're suffering, but a depression cure it is not. Can be helpful in having insights into a life beyond your depression though, there is certainly healthy integration that can come with deep ketamine experiences. Problem is with ket is that it can become like psychedelic heroin for a depressed mind, I was in the same boat and got addicted to the stuff for 3 years. Only just got clean a few months ago. It made my depression worse in the long run, but that was because I abused it.

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed that film when it came out. I still remember it vividly even after only seeing it once in the cinema. There's some brilliantly tense moments throughout and I actually gave a shit about the characters cause they didn't feel 2 dimensional.

The minute that Tool song (which I love) came on I knew this show was gonna be a total vibe trainwreck from here on out

I mean, I totally agree haha that's why I'm consistently consuming those sorts of films from the past 😅

@Leo Gura I'm glad I stopped watching it. Could tell it was going South by episode 3. Wish someone would do something new & creative in the genre of sci-fi rather than failing to inject life into dead IP.

The writing is pretty wack ngl. I don't care about any of the characters so far and the special effects look cheap af (when they're not practical). I'm literally just watching it to see Xenomorph action cause I just love the design of thay creature so much. I feel like since Disney now owns the Alien and Predator franchise, that the new stuff post acquisition feels very Disney-fied and nowhere near as good as the first two alien movies in terms of characterization and world-building. I can't see myself finishing it unless it starts to get really engaging.

@Gidiot Glad they resonate with you mate!

@LoneWonderer Thank you for the feature, I appreciate you, Leo and everyone else in this awesome community. I'm happy to be of service and strive to make my content even more insightful and in-depth going forward. I wish I could genuinely do more, but in a strange twist of fate I am suffering from health problems akin to Leo's that prevents me from really putting my all into the channel. I am glad what I am doing at this current point in time regardless of my own self-critique is worthy of recognition though, I hope the stuff I make helps any of you guys and the wider world towards pursuing God, truth and love :-)
