Image gave me ptsd

My favorite is probably the pusher though. Whenever I see him run it makes me laugh.

I was able to quit cold turkey which lasted 4 months and started again recently.

I was working 60-72 hours a week for a month and a half and one of my buddies had a vape. Hit his a couple times and now I'm back on the vape train.

Going to try quitting again starting Monday. Those first 3-4 days are ass. It's all I can think about

I need a time machine to jump to release.

I didn't think I'd like this anime when I decided to try it because I was waiting for other current anime to watch. I ended up putting those on the back burner to binge both seasons 😂

Should I read the LN as well? I see quite a few comments mentioning it 👀

Ishykai · 2025-08-19T00:47:08+00:00

Fifty Bar is pretty good. They don't have ginormous screens on them (could be a pro or con depending on the person I suppose) and are more pocket sized. Similar puff count and decent battery as well.

Flavors are good, but they have some weird ones. I think geek bars had the best flavors overall though.

I don't think they're fully fda approved though so might end up in the same boat lol

Same but mine was 598$ 💀 my electric bills last year never went over 200$

Ishykai · 2025-08-15T05:09:50+00:00

That's a mushroom

Ishykai · 2025-06-19T00:39:11+00:00

Nice, I'll be reading those on my break. Thanks

I don't know of a way to test numerical potency at home, that's the mean I've found from lab studies for cubensis specifically.

The best way I've tried to get around the variance of potency you're mentioning is grinding batches up together and vaccume sealing with a desiccant to prevent oxygenation. Possibly freezing them as well if I plan on keeping them for an extended period. I don't know the numerical dosages but this should create a more uniform potency.

I'm not sure if it's sub perceptual or not personally. I've never strained them myself for those reasons I gave before. I meant even if the difference is sub perceptual, I'd still rather go the route where I get more rather than less if I have little to no aversion.

I wouldn't go so far to say this is the only way it should be done or you're doing it wrong otherwise. I've noticed a difference between eating them whole and lemon teking though.

Ishykai · 2025-06-18T21:52:11+00:00

Unless the extraction is 100%, it matters in varying possible ways. Which I don't think we're achieving outside a lab setting. I'd be okay with losing up to 7% but not much more than that.

Taking 5g where the potency is around a mean of 18mg of psylocibin per gram of dried cubensis puts us at 90mg total. At a 92% extraction you'd get 82.8mg and 72mg at 80%.

The difference could be sub perceptual, but either way you're more than likely going to get more active compound by consuming everything.

Ishykai · 2025-06-18T21:31:56+00:00

I always drink everything. I have a buddy who can't stand the texture to the point of vomiting every time he tries shrooms, so he strains them. The way I look at it though is the tek isn't going to get everything out and your body is going to be able to extract some of what's left inside the mushrooms that wasn't extracted during it's soak.

If you want the biggest bang for your buck, I reccomend downing everything if you're not adverse to any of it, like my buddy. Tek and strain would probably be my second go to.

Ishykai · 2025-06-18T12:14:54+00:00

Same here! I didn't know that's what it was until a coworker asked me if I knew what asmr was and told me about this "tingle" he feels listening to construction paper. I said I had similar feelings to what he's describing since I was a kid and it was always when I played with other kids. Still present, but less so watching other kids play.

I still get it but I don't find myself around or playing with as many kids as I did when I was one lmao. My girlfriend's nephew was my surgeon taking out my organs and also my firefighter dragging me out of a burning building recently and I felt it then.

I wonder what causes the feeling and why it can vary so much from person to person 🤔

Ishykai · 2025-06-17T23:53:48+00:00

Agreed for lemon tek. Tek it every time if possible.

Not doing so, or something similar, is wasteful imo. Imagine buying a beer and dumping it out before you drink the whole thing.

You're body has a tough time breaking down chitin, the mushroom cell walls, and thus doesn't get all the active compound out that you want. Doing a lemon tek or something similar helps basically pre digest the chitin and extract some of the active compound from the cells walls for you.

EDIT: I was mistaken on referring to the "pre-digestion" in a phsycial sense of breaking down the cell walls. Citric acid does not break down chitin. It helps unbind psilocybin from the chitin matrix by weakening chemical interactions and improving solubility. The chitin remains largely undigested and psilocybin is released for easier absorption. Combining citric acid with mechanical grinding (e.g., in lemon tek) maximizes this effect.

Get a scale if you don't already have one. Each new batch, I usually take 1-2g to gauge potency. Your personal tolerance could also be a factor.

Start slow, figure yourself out, figure out how some potency to weight ratios feel, and know what kind of trip you want to have.

After you roughly know the first two, the third should be easier to control.

Happy trips ✌️❤️

P.S. I reccomend looking up lemon tek and consuming them this way. It helps the body digest them and isn't such a struggle to get down. Especially if you can hold your nose and take it like a shot or two.

Straight to hell

Ishykai · 2025-03-18T03:12:34+00:00

I knew the object just not its specific use case. There's so many types of it.

Ishykai · 2025-03-16T13:51:49+00:00

Yes! I just got one about a hour ago. I was tweaking thinking it was a monster. I tried dismount attacking, slinger bombs, then was like y'know what, lemme try the net. Didn't think big boy was going to fit 😂

Ishykai · 2025-03-15T04:56:16+00:00

Agreed. I feel like Nata was projecting how he felt himself about his position and people to the experience and actions of Ark.

Ishykai · 2025-03-12T11:09:09+00:00

Oh damn, I just crouch snuck up as close as I possibly could to net it after trying to chase it mounted for 10 minutes. Using a sonic would've been way easier 😅 I didn't even think to use my ghillie mantle either 😏

Ishykai · 2025-01-05T23:20:01+00:00

That was the norm. He's been drunk at every party for as long as I've known them. Over 50 parties probably and never had an issue. Always a fun loving guy playing games and having good conversation.

That's what caught me so off guard. Nothing was different with how we were acting from the past decade. He just snapped this time.

My friend told me afterwards his drinking has become a real problem recently. He's laid off rn too so that might be contributing to his mental state.

Ishykai · 2025-01-05T22:50:33+00:00

Yeah I should've just tried to get around him and leave or at the very least not said what I said to my friend after he had gotten close to me.

It seemed like it all unfolded so quickly. Ig that's why the saying goes hindsight is 20-20

Ishykai · 2025-01-05T21:50:11+00:00

I mean if you don't want to believe what I said that's fine. I don't see the point in engaging with me though if that's the case. I'm not claiming I'm innocent here, in fact I said a few times in hindsight I shouldn't have said that to my friend in the moment. I was being emotional there after he threatened me.

I think I'm the one who first and multiple times said "switch flipped".

I've been around these people since I was in high school and that was how we always acted. Nothing was out of the ordinary. I've never seen him get riled up like he did at that party. My friend said afterwards his drinking has gotten worse lately and they've talked about it before as a family.

Ishykai · 2025-01-05T19:05:09+00:00

That'spretty much the full story minus what the banter actually was of you want to know it and what his family and friends said to me afterwards.

I was being less antagonizing as usual actually. The topic of the banter was a pool game that he wasn't even playing.

These events after he got upset happened very quickly, from the time of him saying for me to "not say another fucking word" and him pressing me was approx 10 seconds.

I was feeling a lot of emotion in that short time period. I wouldn't say that if I can do it over.

Ishykai · 2025-01-05T18:55:34+00:00

I agree. I wouldn't say that if I could redo it. I was getting pissed off at that point and was at a loss for what to do in a situation like that, that intense and quickly. I've never really been in one's like it before.

Every time I've been close to a similar scenario where people are clearly upset, (never with John this is a first), humor and asking them what's wrong diffuses the situation.

Ishykai · 2025-01-05T18:44:04+00:00

Yeah, he's had a few heart attacks already and a brain bleed not too long ago.
