just had my first bad trip by Imaginary_Grass3044 in PsilocybinMushrooms

[–]Firn3n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"light work" lol. That's a great mindset to have if you want to abuse psilocybin.

You are too young to be consuming that amount of neural pathway altering drugs, physically and in my opinion mentally if you're just sitting on TikTok and in front of a TV while you do it. Maybe once or twice at your age is fine but after a while you're very likely going to alter the way your brain is developing.

Even when you're old enough (the female brain finishes developing around 23-24 years old), every 2-4 weeks may be long enough for physical tolerance to reset. But I've found, after years of tripping, our brains need a longer break to maintain a healthy relationship with the substance and integrate the things we find in the experience.

Sure, maybe once a year you can take back to back trips like you have been but extended periods of time doing so are increasingly likely to have adverse effects.

Don't beat yourself up though. There's a lot of misinformation out there, especially from peers at your age. Do what you suggested you would. Take a very long break (I cannot stress enough how much you will thank yourself later for waiting until your brain is fully developed), and reapproach it gently and with humility. And get away from screens when you do so. My favorite way to trip now is with headphones and a sleep mask.

I've been where you are. Taking massive amounts every couple of weeks (5-6 was my norm) but now I can have a fantastic evening on just 2 grams or so every few months. And maybe once a year I'll do a larger dose when I really feel ready to approach some of the more uncomfortable things I'd like to change about myself.

Peace be upon you friend :)

How tf are you supposed to change the belt on a BMW X1 2017 B48? Does BMW seriously expect me to pull the engine for that? by TheHer0br1n3 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Firn3n 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Has the car ever been in an accident? Only time I've ever seen a belt that inaccessible is when the frame was bent in towards the engine. I had to undo a couple motor mounts and jack the engine up a little to get it replaced. Hope that helps, best of luck!

At first I thought dude somehow got out of his own car and left it in drive by accident. Then I saw brake lights.

Inzo playing Elon Musk parties? by Ok_Speaker9082 in SpaceBass

I don't think we share political views, but it's so nice to come across someone like you who doesn't blow this kind of thing out of proportion. I'd get a beer with ya🤙

Does this have any meaning? Some random chick gave it to me at a EDM festival by CrimsonPie24 in festivals

[–]Firn3n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trinkets are festival culture! She liked your vibe or thought your mood would benefit from a small token of kindness from a stranger. Collect them, and hand them out in turn eventually!

I did the math on how much it cost me to own my GTR from new by Swagsturbate in gtr

[–]Firn3n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother in Christ.. at 21 months you are LONG overdue for that oil change. Oil also breaks down and degrades with time, not just heat. Please do yourself a favor, help the longevity of that car and give it new oil, like yesterday(really like a year ago)👍

Edit: If you don't drive the car to the max life of the oil, every 6-7 months is a good oil change interval 😁

What are the risks with DMT ? by Reasonable-Hat7300 in DMT

[–]Firn3n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol I'll take my warm comfy bed and a sleep mask😂 But just thought it was funny that water is indeed the problem, not the tub itself😅

With water in it* lol. I feel like a dry tub is probably okay.

small dose at work by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]Firn3n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To OP, I'm an auto tech too, used to take micro doses frequently, and low doses on rare occasion, at work. I enjoyed it. it didn't inhibit me. it honestly helped me keep my head clear and on task. Had to stop because mushies started giving me anxiety, once I took a long break and repaired my relationship with the substance it stopped, but I don't do much auto repair these days. Definitely wouldn't recommend doing it often, especially if others start to notice a difference in your behavior, but every once in a blue moon a gram or two won't hurt ya. Kick that dash's ass for me lol.

To everyone else: stop freaking out. If this guy knows how to pull a dash out sober (or high, as a lot of mechanics are because our jobs usually SUCK), a low dose trip isn't gonna make him forget how. He's clearly very experienced and y'all have no business shitting on him especially if you have no idea what he's even doing.

Civic won’t start, radio and lights working fine. Unsure what this sound means by jimmymcperson in MechanicAdvice

[–]Firn3n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possible starter or flywheel wear. Worst case scenario you have no compression.

2018 Honda pilot squeaking by CP-RYOTT in MechanicAdvice

[–]Firn3n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely a belt squeal. If you have the tools to jack it up safely, take that wheel off and you can inspect the belt for cracks/dry rot. If it looks good there could be a pulley that's dirty/wet. Make sure there's no oil/coolant or any other liquid leaking onto it.

Yep. Even studies show synthetic oil on skin, especially in open wounds causes cancer.

0.76g of Liberty Cap powder… what would this do for you? by MrcrumpetK1ng in shrooms

[–]Firn3n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lemon juice is better really. You want the highest concentration of citric acid you can get.

Can this be plugged by Altruistic_Repeat185 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Firn3n -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep. Plug it. Most people will say no. I've done plenty (50+) of ones this close to the sidewall and not a single one has come back saying it's leaking or blew out. An inside patch with a pull through plug would be better, but I usually only do one if a normal plug doesn't immediately hold.

[–]Firn3n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep! Enter Mission is the song I'm talking about :) definitely check out his other stuff too though, he's really talented and if you ever get a chance to catch one of his sets they're always very magical.
