Movement, physical movement, and inner game. You either have to find sanitary conditions (sometimes it's more sanitary in the wild than in WC, heh) and develop a mindset that no-shit in public toilet will harm you in any way. No fly, and no suboptimally ergonomical toilet seat.

Must be the reason why half of my friends and me included have found our partners on Tinder. Hmm... So much bad reputation it makes me an attractive bad boy, I guess I am vouching for Tinder for finding a long-term partner, if you aren't as focused on looks as Leo and some other guys here, then there's plenty of quality girls on Tinder for you.

I believe life is too messy for such calculations and predictions. Too many variables in the system. 0.1% would not be justified probably, it's often better to be conservative and not intervene for 0.1% of society. Brutal, but action often lead to more harm, by undesired side effects. For example, your theoretical calculations assume certain threshold level to be achieved that is not achieved and the death rate goes up by 0.5%. I know you example is a fun thought experiment, with 100% conviction assured, but life never has such conditions. There's a reason why social science uses p = 0.05 so often, it's hard to be more sure of anything at the scale of society.

He had taken 1g and said "it's cool that it allows you to see 5-MeO, while normal 5-MeO is pure tranclucent light with rainbow on the sides", for me that sounds like it's more visual than 5-MeO-DMT, because it's normal psilocybin, which is more visual. 1 g only, and he hasn't made any effort to compare it to shrooms. Maybe because it's so close to shrooms, because it is shrooms. If they had any proof, they would be throwing it in our faces, I bet. I am talking about the church.

@OBEler there's no science, there is no proof, just a guy saying they have bioassayed it on themselves. So what are the facts: There are some guys growing mushrooms. They say they supplement substrate with 5-MeO-DMT. They claim without proof that this creates 4-OH variant of 5-MeO-DMT, because some shrooms were able to add OH group to THC, or psychedelic DET. Then they ground the mushrooms and put them into capsules. ... For me that's normal mushrooms in low doses, the experiences that people describe match. Potentially normal mushrooms with some 5-MeO in them. No-one proved anything yet about this. Even if mushrooms create 4-ho-5-meo-dmt, then what is the potency, what is the perentage of weight? How much psilocybin is still in them? They might be just normal illegal mushrooms with fancy marketing hoping no-one ever verifies. I mean, those guys have patented the name before doing any serious chemical analysis of the shrooms. That's not a good sign.

I am so sceptical about this whole ordeal. Even Martin Ball is not changing this. For me they all are just mushroom microdose placebo enjoyers. I will believe it when I see it analyzed by some scientist proving there's anything other than psilocybin and micro amounts of normal 5-MeO from on purpose contamination in those mushrooms. It's all so anti-science. Big proclamations based on unproven thories. No wonder they have called themselves "church".

For sure, I have a friend who vomits on any psychedelic, even DPT for example. I never vomit, only feel slightly nauseous on high doses of 4-ho tryptamines, doesn't matter synthetic or shrooms. I guess the reason Leo is of opinion that shrooms make you nauseous but synthetics not is that he never dosed shroom-like tryptamine in 50+ mg dose.

@StarStruck man, please hide this senseless attack on someone's apperance here is a dictionary for you: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/like the cat that ate%2Fgot%2Fswallowed the canary

ChatTopAlmostRightButNotReally Psychedelics usually have unnoticable affinity for 5ht3 receptor, BUT in humans they may stimulate production/release (I don't know scientifically correct terms, sorry, no time to check) of chemicals that do, be it sertotonin or else. That's the logic behind taking Kola Nut to reduce 5-MeO-DMT induced nausea and bodyload. Kola nuts share 5ht3 mechanism of action with ginger, but also lemons to some degree, and few other anti-nausea solutions. Natural versus synthetic distinction is meaningless. Most plants are natural and dangerous, especially the ones you could mistake for wild carrots. The fact is though, mushrooms are generally way less dangerous than plants, usually if you misidentify mushrooms they taste really bad or make your stomach hurt, but don't destroy your body. Natural plants can really mess you up quickly if you have foraged them yourself and misdentified somewhere along the way. Doesn't mean mushrooms can't turn your liver into goo and kill you, some can. There's more arguments if you want to hear them.

@no_name no if assumed toxins are water-sollubke. Yes, if they are not and you discard shroom body.

@Leo Gura shrooms don't make you wanna vomit at all if you drink or eat ginger beforehand. And soaking them in lemon juice removes any taste, so, I am not sold on that they are inherently toxic. I am a mushroom lover though, I mean normal edible mushrooms. I have been siding with the synthetic side of the debate, but nowadays I can see that with proper consumption tek shrooms are great too.

@LordFall I am super cautious, such things can be a lot of drama. And for little reward. Sex with multiple partners is not necessarily improving sex. Could be, though. I had been mildly interested in group sex. Consciously thought it through and discarded the idea, then discarded it together with my girlfriend. We both did cold analysis and deemed it a topic unworthy of our attention.

Yea, I have made it into the video talking about e-bikes! Great And the guy is quoting Joseph Maynor's posts to Leo and siding with Joseph, so cute, they match each other.

Winter is good for work and sleep if you sleep in cold. Otherwise, spring and summer are better, much better because you can bike! I love bikes. So early spring is 10/10 IMO, and winter is -1000/10, because you can't bike. I feel you man. Maybe we dislike winter for different reasons, but yours are for sure also valid.

@Mips here you go, 310 posts about the substance https://hyperreal-info.translate.goog/talk/meo-malt-t41787.html?_x_tr_sl=pl&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=pl&_x_tr_pto=wapp People have different experiences, both milder and more hardcore than 5-MEO-DMT. People dose more than on these forums. People mix it with different substances.

Using ChatGPT at the university level? How? The last time I checked the bot's answers were passing no scientific rigor. IMO, it's only good for something like generating a draft of a document or summarizing something to see if it's worth reading.

@Wildcattt555 Nah, the slot machine was just an example of doing something stupid for no reason. Avoiding vaccination is something stupid that people do for no reason. You can be scared shitless of anything. Some people are scared shitless that they are gonna die from the tiniest bleeding or some weird mild pain in their leg. There is no evidence to be scared of covid vaccine and there is no evidence to justify waiting for such evidence. I am not sure if people who already have had covid and it was benign should still get vaccinated now, but it was for sure an intelligent decision when they first entered the field. Please don't educate me on statistics, I am already trained in it.

@Wildcattt555 There is absence of evidence that I have 10 million dollars. That's not an evidence of me not having it. Gonna spend 20k on slot machines, be right back

I think a big challenge for the coaching training to pass would be to teach you up-to-date marketing tactics. The principles of marketing are the same as always, but the execution of them has changed a lot in the past decade. A lot of new marketing channels, tools and also the old channels work in a new way.

Some serious content about psychedelics. What is the current method, what has Leo tried. Something useful for comparing and fine-tuning your own spiritual practice. Leo doesn't do yoga or meditate hardcore, so he could at least share something practical about things he does. Maybe eleborate on what he envisions monk-mode life like. He says he considers that lifestyle as an option, it would be cool to hear his opinion on what it entails, and why it might be more suitable for him and some people than living a conventional life in a relationship. I would like Leo to do some ecological research and thinking. Spirituality and ecology. There's a lot spiritual teachers who's teachings lack connection to the real world. Leo has good enough foundations in science and epistemology, so he can do some contemplation work on that. But practical, anything practical please. Report on experiences with EEG meditation? If you don't plan to make a course on that anymore you could release at least some comment. It could be one of the shorter videos.

@mr_engineer You are in the wrong, which you can see if you really look and see that scamming people openly like Tate or saying anti-semetic things like Kanye is not allowed in the mainstream media/public discussion. No-one really supports that, and for good reasons. It's a good moment for you to self-reflect why you don't see it and how can you open your mind. Don't tell us to change the world to your liking. Think about why the world is the way it is. Thinks about others too, that they are not 1:1 copies of you.

Man, how are you not banned. There's is no need for "woke mob" to do anything because the ideas you spout go against basic human decency. It's normal, mediocre humans you go against with your defense of misogyny and hate speech. If it were 1990s, people would still argue you with this that this is unacceptable in public. That's how out of touch are the things you say.

Man, in what world do you live, anti-semitic rants are crime in itself.

I don't remember the science exactly, but it's something like, 5-MeO probably won't trigger your seizure directly, but can make you more prone for something else that could trigger you, for a few days.

@Breakingthewall you are forgetting whales, the OG geniuses, dolphins are damn smart too. It's not that they can't do algebra. It's we who can't communicate with them. Humans' power is not in being intelligent, it's in us being copycats. We are better monkeys than monkeys, copying each other's habits, inventions. This way only a few people have to be smart and come up with useful things.
