@aurum it’s probably not a winning or losing kinda thing but health in general. Like Leo says, ideology is limited. Each of these diets are not robust and holistic enough likely as nutrition isn’t well understood. I like Bryan Johnson’s approach of referring to the data, and the Toaist approach about balance.

US government now owns 50% of TikTok which is back online…?

@Golem The forum is fine.

@Golem Hm, you are a new member are you?

@Aaron p It is haha. It's a nice beard.

@ConsciousMan The beard is the first step in being a sage for sure . You know what they say about big beards.

@Buck Edwards Is it cool to use random girls pictures like that?

@James123 10 Grams it a dangerous amount for a lot of people man. That is a lot of mushrooms! If it works for you and you know it that is fine. Just be careful because each strain has a different potency and you can easily 10x the strength. Don't assume Mushrooms are the same at 5meodmt though. You may be in for a rude awakening.

Not really the same thing at all. If you watch a trip report it may open your intellectual mind, or imagination. But, it's not trip or altered state.

I am reviewing my life balance areas and journaling today. Here is a list of questions I generated with chatgpt. Here’s a list of reflective questions for each of your life balance areas. These can guide you in identifying what you’ve been doing well, what hasn’t been working, and what you want to keep doing: 1. Health Am I prioritizing physical activity, rest, and proper nutrition? How consistent have I been with habits that support my physical and mental health? Am I addressing any stress or physical discomfort in a proactive way? How well am I managing my energy levels? What specific actions have contributed to my overall well-being? 2. Finances Am I tracking my income and expenses regularly? Have I made progress toward my financial goals, such as saving, investing, or paying off debt? Am I living within my means or overspending in certain areas? Have I been proactive in seeking ways to increase my income? Am I prioritizing financial education and understanding? 3. Career Am I feeling fulfilled and motivated in my current work? Have I made progress toward my short-term and long-term career goals? Am I actively learning or developing skills to advance my career? What challenges or roadblocks have I faced, and how have I responded? Am I building a strong network of connections in my field? 4. Personal Development Am I regularly challenging myself to grow intellectually, emotionally, or creatively? Have I made time for learning, reading, or pursuing personal interests? Am I setting and reviewing personal goals effectively? What have I done to build self-awareness and emotional resilience? Have I embraced opportunities to step outside my comfort zone? 5. Relationships Am I showing up authentically and meaningfully in my relationships? Have I been communicating openly and effectively with those close to me? Am I nurturing relationships that matter most and setting boundaries where necessary? Are there any relationships I’ve neglected or could improve? Have I celebrated or expressed gratitude for the people in my life? 6. Spirituality Am I making time to connect with my inner self or a higher power? How aligned do I feel with my values and purpose? Have I been practicing mindfulness, meditation, or prayer consistently? What inspires or uplifts me spiritually, and am I pursuing it enough? How do I approach challenges from a spiritual perspective? 7. Recreation Have I been making time for hobbies or activities I enjoy? Am I prioritizing leisure and fun as a part of my routine? How balanced is my time between work and play? Are there new experiences or interests I’d like to explore? Am I allowing myself moments of spontaneity and joy? 8. Community Involvement Am I contributing to causes or communities I care about? Have I been connecting with people outside of my personal circle? What opportunities have I had to give back or volunteer, and have I taken them? Am I fostering a sense of belonging in my community? Have I explored ways to make a positive impact in the world around me?

Okay, that is fair enough. I think he generally just says look at the Data. Note, he hasn't claimed he would be healthier if he ate meat too though. He doesn't really get into the debate. Haha, even then he takes collegen peptides from animal source. So, I am open to correcting my understanding on this. Thanks for pointing to where I was wrong. I personally eat omnivore. Though, I rarely eat meat. I do eat lots of eggs haha.

@The Crocodile Don't call others "bad people" just because they don't agree with you.

8 Grams is a lot of mushrooms generally, assuming common strength. Also, 5meodmt and DMT and mushrooms are all very unique....

Can't help stupid.

@Leo Gura My old coworker would say that 3 times a day and it drove me nuts.

Please note this is an old thread, might not even be worth keeping on?

Yeah well you should then you could eat healthy. Just kidding obviously that’s not my point. He spends millions on being the healthiest person in the world. If veganism was less healthy than omnivore he would be an omnivore.

Has anyone looked into this Truth Social App? I think it’s Donald Trumps social media app? Not promoting it just noting how twisted this is.. I wonder how many users are on it.

@Buck Edwards i don’t think this is true. Bryan Johnson for example is vegan. He spends 2million a year on his health. Though, everyone is different.

@Leo Gura Yes, that and explore how eco chambers work. These are truly seriously dark times. Like, I’ve been in your forum for years. You really think I’m gonna promote this trash heap? Donald trump makes a social media platform and calls it “Truth”.

@Leo Gura I am looking more for a discussion on it than to promote it. I think it's sickenly twisted and backwards. I can lock and hide this if you want...?

@OBEler I have talked about these things in the past and don't want to talk to much about it. The risk for me was my body moving around, looking around the room and being confused in the higher state. It ruined an important relationship with my old best friend and roommate. I hugged and touched him not knowing what he was and it scared him. @OctagonOctopus and I could have hurt myself on other occasions by moving around, knocking over the pipe and cutting my foot on the glass, running down the side walk when I had one of my deepest and scariest breakthroughs. I honestly had a lot of fantasies as well that had to be ironed out about liberation and God. Unforunately my early explorations, though mostly safe and successful had some sloppy falures. Years ago. I share these failures from a place of vulnerability and trying to promote that being careful, mature, no moving around, not taking super high doses, not taking it every day, etc.... I am pretty mature and safe now days. I understand the experience and relax through it. Follow protocols.

Things are looking real dark with this transition.... man..

Congrats
