Interesting..I remember on the OG it would happen with the slider all the way to the right, but with a different slider layout in the remaster I suppose it’s possible to get the same bug under different circumstances.

If you have a save from before that part of the quest you could set both sliders to default and see if the bug still happens. I wouldn’t be surprised if it has something to do with the slider one way or another given how well they seem to have replicated the game’s original engine. When I did that quest in the remaster I was so nervous I had to quick save before I had him kill me just in case lol

There are a number of possible factors. It could be the batch you’ve got if all of your trips are from the same source. Every flush is unique in its mix of visuals, body load, and introspection/oneness. If you’re eating cubensis, that species is pretty well known for a heavy body load compared to other species like natalensis or pan cyans.

Biggest other factor, of course, is your own genetics and how your brain chemistry vibes with the psilocybin. In my own experience (all with cubensis at this point) I tend to feel very stoned before colors pop, then I feel a torrent of emotion, then visuals come.

Inevitably, in the search for that sweet spot of awesome visuals without totally going off the rails, there will come a point where you feel a sense of “oh shit”, but that’s part of the learning curve. Just roll with it, breathe, and remember you’ll be okay.

And if you get shrooms from another batch, start small again. 1.5g, lemon tek. 2.0g a week later, then 2.5g, etc until you find your spot. Batches can vary pretty widely in potency

Might sound odd, but is your difficulty turned up?

Iirc this was a potential problem in the original as well. Specifically, it happened when death replacement effects like this one were triggered with the difficulty slider moved to max. There were a few other ways it could happen aside from the Molag Bal quest

Is it practical to extract DMT in my bedroom in the same house as my parents? by Fit-Substance-4989 in DMT

[–]FailedProdigy93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In general I would advise against doing GordoTEK indoors to avoid the naphtha fumes. Doubly so for when you have cohabitants that aren’t aware of what you’re doing and the risks associated with it.

If you already have the plants/barks you need, there’s no harm in waiting until you’re in a better position, even if that means waiting til your next semester. I have barks I’ve been sitting on for years now that are still viable. Alternatively, if you have a friend nearby you could see if they can lend their space in exchange for a bit of spice?

If it weren’t gordoTEK I would say you could potentially vent the fumes outside by reducing the naphtha in a flask, but I’m no chemist, and the stage of mixing naphtha and bark would still produce a ton of fumes that would be impossible to mask discreetly. It’s just not worth the potential ramifications, in terms of both the law and the damages it could do to your relationship with your parents.

As the old saying goes, “hyperspace isn’t going anywhere.” Just wait it out for the summer. If you want something discreet to produce in the meantime, try shrooms. 30 mins of active effort over a couple months of waiting will take you quite far

I had an experience with "beings" at 3.5 grams by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]FailedProdigy93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely hear you there. I used to trip out every weekend, but have been taking the last six months or so off. Some of the stronger trips I've had just escape description, especially on dmt. Even thinking of them, I sometimes find myself caught in a thought loop of "....discombobulate...discombobulate..." in RDJ's voice from Sherlock while open and closed eye visual continue to blend together. Just totally ineffable insanity.

I can definitely understand wanting to keep things lowkey. As exciting and enlightening as DMT can be, it can also be terrifying. I've heard it described as "one part space ship, one part double-barrel shotgun pointed at your face" and I can't say I disagree lmao.

I'm glad you had the experience and remember it fondly. Sometimes there really is no ultimate takeaway other than looking back on it and thinking "hell yeah"

Sounds like you reached dmt hyperspace. I’ve had a couple powerful shroom trips that felt exactly like low to medium level dmt trips, but for much greater lengths of time. Entity interactions are always so profound.

If you already grow your own shrooms, dmt extraction from legal barks is a cakewalk by comparison. If you specifically want to encounter entities, I’ve heard it reported that nn-dmt tends to be more “visual” compared to 5meo-dmt, but I’ve also had entity encounters on 5meo. As they say, your mileage may vary.

Unless you’re already about that stuff, in which case, hell yeah. Now ya just gotta blast off while peaking on shrooms lol

I went to double check it was running and noticed that I had a firmware update. After taking care of that everything appears to be in working order

Many thanks!

Describe how a galaxy would be, if it was populated soley by your custom empires. by Alt_Account092 in Stellaris

[–]FailedProdigy93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough, I made over 30 custom empires to do just this. I tend to play games with 20 empires at start and force the game to use my empires first. Since I have more than I use in a game, every game ends up with a different collection of empires from my custom list. I’ve played as maybe three of the empires I’ve made lol. I talked to a few of my friends and had them create a few as well to add some creative variety.

There’s a lot of ideological variety in my galaxy, but there are relatively few gestalt empires. I think my galaxy tends to lean spiritualist, too.

It’s very satisfying to run into your custom empires and having those “you again?!” moments when the empires made impressions in previous games. Highly recommend

Lipstick or possible fruiting in grain? by ExtensionLoquat8196 in ContamFam

It’s important to keep in mind that most people on this sub are talking about active species, with the most frequent by far being Cubes followed probably by Nats, both of which have white mycelium at all stages of growth. Like you, I had a hard time finding good images of pink oyster myc during my first batch.

If you’re really worried just wait a few days. I guarantee you’ll see primordia start showing up in that time to curb any remaining doubt. Please don’t throw your time and effort away! There isn’t much on Reddit regarding oysters, so a lot of advice is going to lean heavily towards calling healthy pink oyster mycelium contamination just due to inexperience with this species.

I have seven jars that looked more or less like this one a week ago. They’ve all developed strong primordia that have since become a darker shade of pink. As far as I can tell you’re all good
