Well you’ve got your answer. If you were to take into account every single detail that makes up a shape you couldn’t call it any kinda shape anymore. Life is too complicated to fit inside our square ways of conceptualizing it. There is no such thing as a sphere in all of existence. You can kept zooming in & find imperfections in the edges. But at some point it’s « close enough ». We have a saying in jazz culture that goes « good enough for jazz » when talking about tuning. Perfect tuning is impossible but we can get so close that it stops mattering. So the earth is close enough to be a sphere. Casually speaking, it’s a sphere. Even though it’s not. (Your belief of it is a sphere. Your mental image of it is a sphere, anyways)

I can relate. Last week my semester ended & the next 3days I was sleeping 11hrs plus 2hrs nap in the afternoon. I didn’t even notice how sleep deprived I was. Last night I was swimming & being chased by a scary shark the whole time. Vivid swinging back of the pendulum.

Wait her rational is « Make a better world with only women »? How can she not see that that is literally impossible? Killing all men is the exact same as killing everyone. Just delayed for women.

I was contemplating this in the shower. The ocean came to mind. If you ask anyone if the ocean is finite or infinite they are going to tell you it’s finite of course. The earth is a limited system( a ball ) so the ocean circles back around & has a definite border to it. It’s obvious to me that all of that is a story I am constructing in my own mind because of what other people have told me. I put myself in front of the ocean & I can’t find an end to it. For all I know it stretches to infinity. The horizon is the asymptote. A line that is approached but never reached. I found that to be true with being in tune. Singing in tune. When you think you are in tune, you can be more in tune. Ever approaching the asymptote but never getting there. It echoes with my psychedelic trips. It’s more total & more total forever. Are we ever going to reach the asymptote? Is it possible? Form seems to always be incomplete. Psychedelic trips one up themselves every time. Is there even such a thing as completeness? I heard plenty of people say it is possible. Spiritual characters say that. One of you is probably going to say that right now.

It’s impossible the master music. There’s no end to it. Some folks are very close to the asymptote though. This guy sounds fantastic.

I think you are overlooking the obvious. It’s a game. It’s fun. People play games for fun.

Edible is the only valid way to consume it😝 The problem with weed is it’s too much fun. It’s too pleasurable. And pretty much the safest drug you could take, physically. Which is why it’s so easy to get addicted to. It’s a great substance but to me it’s not even close to a psychedelic. I need courage to take a psychedelic whereas weed is coping. If you don’t get addicted you could get value for introspection & slowed down emotional processing. It’s a slippery slope tho. You’ve been warned. Mushrooms for instance will put your bullshit front & centre & force you to look at it. They’ll reward you after the processing is done lol. Weed will cuddle you & reveal as much as you are willing to take. If you’re anything like me, anyways. Which means that if you are not willing to face yourself you won’t. Hence all the addicted, underdeveloped potheads.

Get yourself a dehydrator! I’ve had one for years for reasons that I will remain nebulous about but I figured out lately that it’s perfect for food on the go. I mean jerky. I make fish, shrimp & scallops jerky. It fabulous! I throw that in my bag along with an apple, a handful of nuts & a bottle of water! Boom! Convenient, tasty & nutritious food for busy days that don’t require ice or reheating. I love it.

Mushrooms are hard to dose. Unless you grow them you are basically gambling. Which is why I always tell newbies to blend their batch & test with 0,5 to 1g a week or two before the actual trip to gauge what dose would be enough for a breakthrough experience. I’ve had heroic experiences with as little as 3,5g. I’ve also had 6g that weren’t breakthroughs.

Reach out to people IRL that can emotionally support you. This forum is too far removed from your lived experience.

I get it, but if there is a healthy life free of this pain out there, will it really be accessible while eating junk, stagnating(literally not moving) & indulging in a wide variety of coping mechanisms? We all need coping to some extent but you are overlooking the principle of right action. The actions which would create the state you want to inhabit need to be taken for that state to manifest. Now it seems to me you are putting the state before the action. You are thinking that your state prevents action. It’s a process. And it’s difficult. But what else are you going to do? Chip away at it slowly. Always keep the basics in mind because a life without them is never going to fix itself. edit: wrong quote don’t mind it.

That’s a great question. What do you do? On a day to day basis? What actions are you taking in your life? What about the basics? Do you get good sleep & move plenty? Do you eat fresh? Do you drink clean water? Psychedelics aren’t going to do the basics for you. Break a sweat every day is my two cents. I am sure your situation is more complicated but try to simplify as best you can. Build a healthy character before going on trying to obliterate it with psychedelics. You build a healthy character by acting on the basics every day. Basics. Simplify. What can you do right now? You are asking the right question.

Came out last month & it managed to be my most listened to of the year.

But Tidal gives better recommendations on top of giving the masters. You are winning here buddy.

Two monitors doesn’t mean multitasking. Some tasks just require extra real estate. If you use it to open YouTube on the side than yeah it’s distracting. Ultimately you create your own distraction independent of the number of monitors you have.
