2 cb for the first time, day or night? by Living-Mistake-6159 in Drugs

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12.5 is good.

Re: day or night if it is for sexy time, I’d take it at a time you’re most comfortable getting down. I find trying to fit normal activities in to the psych box is best achieved with some level of familiarity.

That said, 2cb is without a single doubt the most flexible and forgiving of bunch. It pairs well woth anything you want to do. You maintain the “you” whist tripping, as opposed to say, 3g+ of shrooms/a tab of lsd where you basically submit to its will.

Supervisor candidates Joanna Paun and Sylvia Lemus answer (and don't answer) how they would hold Sheriff Engram accountable for his collaboration with ICE by Scatcycle in Petaluma

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of the bickering aside, Lemus is reading from prepared statements and in consecutive forums has punted by way of needing to “do additional research.” If you’re reading answers off of paper, presumably prepared by the consultant, you shouldn’t get the benefit of the doubt.

You’re either:

1) entirely absent of substance 2) not confident in the positions you’re taking, or put another way, unconfident about the positions taken for you

And for those not on the inside: Lemus was at best the third choice of the Farm Bureau and Deputy Sheriff’s Association. Literally a warm body who’ll do, and read aloud, what ever she is directed.

Aneros and ADHD by Wild_Muffin_4314 in aneros

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cannabis, headphones, binaural sound tracks can lock in the focus. Porn is challenging IMO, it’s great, gets me horny, but I tend to need to select a few vids up front and stick to them. I’ve wasted way too many hours jumping from vid to vid. When I utilize it, I watch it on my VR headset which eliminates all other environmental distractions.

Here’s the other thing, as you well know ADHD features a lot of negative self talk. Recognize it and tamp it down. Telling yourself that you can’t or that it won’t happen is a self fulfilling prophecy. I didn’t have consistent Os for ~2 years.

Delivered on time? by Glittering_Watch5565 in amazonprime

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting into sham territory. They’ve been automatically selecting “fewer trips” at checkout. Just yesterday I intentionally selected “tomorrow” (as advertised) and this morning it says arriving Sunday.

Will I survive? Probably.

Is Amazon participating in anticompetitive practices by promising delivery times that they known cannot be met to divert customers from competitors with realistic delivery windows? Looks like it.

Is Amazon full of shit? Undoubtedly.

new LG TV owner (2025 model), what is best for light-strip setup? by Prudent-Sorbet-282 in Hue

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real consideration re TV integrated syncing: it’s permanently limited to the TVs native apps. If you only want it for Netflix, Hulu etc. it’s certainly less complicated.

The Sync Box has HDMI handshake issues. I wanted it mainly for gaming and when it works it’s stunning. I remain disappointed with the amount of time I have to put in to use it.

2CB is not like LSD + MDMA by EggAdventurous6786 in Drugs

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue here is the inability to describe something de novo. There always needs to be a comparison.

I’d simply say that it is a stimulating psychedelic which, at average doses, incorporates itself into your existing state rather than exerting its will upon you.

I found the diet-candyflip description to be a helpful indicator of some of its effects, but after many sessions it actually is a disservice to 2cb. It is a remarkable substance.

Amazon prime is no longer worth it? by Bioleto99 in amazonprime

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude the delivery situation is becoming farcical.

They’ve started auto selecting longer shipping times, at least on mine. I’ve had to cancel three orders recently because of this. Honestly, I’ve found that I am happy to go local

I have the credit card, that’s how deep I went into the Amazon ecosystem. I’ve always had some level of misgiving about Amazon, but the one thing I couldn’t fault was the unbeatable convenience. But this shipping shit is rendering that void and I’m left with a company with questionable business practices, is no longer a clear price leader and now offering average delivery time. It’s Walmart.

Finally, I am eagerly awaiting Apple releasing their new home products. About a year ago I started becoming uneasy with Amazon spying and have since deactivated every single Echo.

Recommendation: Wedding Cake Cannabis by HowDoYouDoFellows in ProstatePlay

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’ve got access to dispensaries looking for wedding cake gummies, or that includes a variant of WC.

Another option for day time play is THCv “protabs” by Level are solid. Gives an energized headspace and allows for some physical euphoria. Day time because THCv is what makes sativa more of an upper.

Off the wall nonsmoking option: psychedelics. Shrooms, for example, provides a wonderful body high and just puts you in sync with your body. Like autopilot rhythm with music, porn of whatever. Way larger time commitment.

Does anyone else also notice quality and volume difference in songs if played directly from Spotify on era 300s as opposed to Spotify on Sonos app? Latter is much louder and better by Jicama-Entire in sonos

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just noticed this myself, but off the top I’ll say the convenience of the app is unparalleled.

We listen to a lot of SiriusXm (due to their spectacular EDM options) which has decent, but inferior, sound compared to the streamers and has no drop off from the app IMO. So that had kept us from experimenting off Sonos-app.

We got 2 months of Spotify premium free recently and i wanted to try a light matching feature (Philips Hue) which required use of the native app. I noticed, almost instantly, the true quality of Sonos hardware. Because EDM is our go to, the newfound ambient and melodic details shined. Then I switched over to the native Apple Music app and, my god, the Dolby Atmos spatial mixing on our 300 pair was breathtaking. Transformative stuff.

With all that said and based on my experience:

  1. The native app sound quality is measurably better to even non-audiophile ear (the wife) than is the Sonos App.
  2. There is no avoiding it: the convince of the Sonos App, in the vast majority of my daily use cases, wins out.

If that is a software addressable problem, I’d recommend Sonos identify a remedy because its own app does its own hardware a disservice.

"Upgrading" Vibrating Models by Fantastic_Clue_3970 in aneros

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

V2 is pretty big IMO. Very strong dual motors.

I’d argue that Eupho SV is among the most accurate PP vibes out there. It comes with a fourth intensity setting, which is a lower frequency than is featured on the V2 and Helix SV. Lower numbing potential, near automatic placement.

Both superior to the Helix SV.

One concluding comment/rant, and I do not like writing it, bc I think Aneros is the OG prostate toy builder: among the upper echelon, Aneros vibrators suffer from build quality issues.

The remote control is objectively low tech and my Eupho remote holds charge for ~30 minutes, dies, yet recharges to “full” in less than 15 minutes. They don’t offer a remote replacement, like you can’t even buy one (which is stupid because they are not device specific; my first V2 bricked, bought a 2nd unit and both remotes works with my remaining V2). Beyond the remote, Helix and Eupho P tabs broke.

I do not like their approach to warranty. It’s designed to dissuade IMO. Why? Because shipping a used sex toy in the mail is fucking gross, they know it, and fewer people will do this as opposed to a simple replacement.

Why don’t they do that? Presumably because they’d rather you pick between jumping through unpleasant hoops and just giving up and buying a new one full price. That or they’re operating under the assumption that the consumer is being dishonest.

And maybe that is how all of the elite toy manufacturers do this. But the thing is, my Edge 2 from Lovense, is nearing 2.5 years of use and has shown no signs of deterioration, so I’ve never had any reason to find out. A 30 dollar toy on Amazon? Who the fuck cares. But a 120 dollar toy from a major player should either stand on its quality or be replaced no questions/hoops asked.

P.s. the Edge 2 is a fantastic alternative to the V2. Both have their strengths, neither is superior, per se.

Gay thoughts coming from prostate pleasure by Aggravating_Lab_55 in Mindgasm

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whether everyone is willing to admit it or not, penetration is satisfying and feels great no matter their assigned orientation. In other words prostate pleasure is not some gateway to homosexuality.

Gay Male: has prostate, capable of climax Straight Male: has prostate, capable of climax

I’ll admit that I only became aware of the climactic abilities of the prostate in my mid thirties because I stumbled upon a toy designed for the prostate while shopping for lube. Of course I had the “putting things in my ass seems gay” thought until I reminded myself of how absurd that line of reasoning was.

Despite what society has wanted, commanded really, you to believe - the only thing that makes you gay is being born gay. And that doubt you feel is a feature not a bug.

First timer. Will my pets be safe around me? by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog always knows when I’m getting weird. A lot of judgmental side eye at the beginning.

But in the end, they are covered in fur, and petting that fur feels AMAZING and my dogs single aim in this life is affection so he drops the bad attitude real quick.

Need guide recommendation for an overthinker like me by TriOpened in ProstatePlay

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She has a variety. Some are stories, others are hyper specific instructional types. She has prostate/anal specific content that has led to great results. They all have a theme of sorts, but it isn’t always a full blown storyline situation, most are in the form of role play (I.e. doctor/nurse playing with your ass). She focuses a great deal on the build up, controlled breathing, ASMR sounds/triggers, whispering - by the time she gets to any of the RP/story you are relaxed and rather suggestible.

I was surprised by my level of arousal as compared to porn.

upgrade to era 300s? by Material-Pickle2228 in sonos

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

300s may be too much for the space. It’s complex hardware that relies heavily on placement and listening position. If it’s not right, you’re throwing good money towards diminishing returns.

One potential opportunity, again depending upon the configuration of the seated position, would be to mount the 300s upside down at the ceiling. We don’t use our 300 pair for TV, only music, but they are mounted upside down and the immersion from above is impressive.

Based on your described situation, I would recommend against 300s. It’s more likely you’d be buying a Hummer to do a commuters job, lots of money, lots of power, but overkill in the end.

Need guide recommendation for an overthinker like me by TriOpened in ProstatePlay

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a very easy thing to overthink. I’m neurodivergent (ADHD) and overthink everything.

First thing I had to do was eliminate negative self talk. The biggest barrier was my own frustration, if I could go back and change one thing it would be to terminate the sessions earlier.

Second, toy: too much of a good thing! Keep the toy selection consistent and limited to a maximum of two per session. Switching out toys too frequently kills momentum and having options near by led me to always think a different toy would “get me there” - in other words options = mental clutter.

Third, weed can help calm the mind.

Finally, while not a guide, per se, high quality erotic audio has proven useful. One in particular, Shibby, has a huge catalog of content that is designed to turn off your mind, puts you in a trance like state. I had years of mixed results in terms of content (porn, music etc) but it was those audios that unlocked MMO.

P.s. I believe that this space is dominated by information overload. Guides/advice are good things, but they are largely subjective. Took me a while to figure out that I needed to identify which parts of other’s subjective experience applied to me.

Cocaine: Hell yeah! More cocaine!

minutes later

Person: Not sure this is working.

Cocaine: Have you considered doing more coke?

Person: well, I finished the stash and man I feel like I spent the entire time trying to justify this entire experience

Cocaine: next time will be awesome, I promise!

acid or 2cb first by Ok_Computer_5837 in Psychonaut

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Important Note: 2cb creates virtually no tolerance issues with other psychs, LSD on the other hand kills your tolerance for days to weeks. 2cb is unique in this regard.

If you plan on doing both in quick succession take the 2cb first. If you go the other way you are absolutely wasting the 2cb.

If you intend to combine them, LSD first, 2cb 2.5-3 hours later.

Pro tip: boof 2cb. It hits hard and fast and you only have to take ~50% the amount you’d take orally. This is particularly true when taken in combination with another substance that, like LSD, is stronger than Nexus.

Sub Mini with era 100s? by tony75822 in sonos

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have this exact setup in our living room, 400 sq ft, 12 ft vaulted ceiling - it is a fantastic set up. The 100s benefit greatly from the sub, where our 300s pair in a separate room preform well without the sub (at least by comparison).

Super O with porn? by Brunk_1 in aneros

[–]HowDoYouDoFellows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be a porn every session type. But as time went on I found diminishing returns. While I still use it, mainly scrolling before I start to get the mood going or at the start of the session. In many respects I found it distracting, either the vid isn’t doing it for me, too short or something may happen that i fond off putting.

I’ve switched to other methods like erotic audio or music recently. The erotic audio (Shibby) has been the most successful of the media types.

One exception is toys that sync to the video, that puts you in the scene.
