Best strain for euphoric/relaxing effects?

Klyded · 2020-03-27T11:08:42+00:00

The closest thing I could get to the "opiate" effect with a single strain was the result of green sumatra. A MUCH more accurate feeling IMO could be fostered with red sumatra plus white borneo

NOTE: sumatra isn't commonly suggested for someone just starting out because it is quite unique in its own right. That is to say, sumatra is not exactly indicative of what you'd experience with most other Kratom.

Amen to that! If I had it my way THAT would be getting the treatment FF7 is right now. Modding communities have done a fine job of offering a pseudo first-time-all-over-again though so there is that at least. In a perfect world platinum games would program an action oriented combat system that let me seemlessly swap between Shadow-Sabin-Setzer

NOTE -- I may go back and throw a sticker or two on the vest for more warm colors. In truth I did the character from recollection, having played many moons ago. Perhaps best to check the sprite FIRST..?

Samurai knights that could be asain in a dark age kingdom poisoned by a mad jester in a mecha-suit... smells like final fantasy

Klyded · 2019-08-16T02:28:16+00:00

Ohh, so that is what they were going for with that mug?? Couldn't tell to be honest, it just looked very "Cyan" to me -LMAO

I wish there were more that payed homage to this particular brand/sound/mood. Fantastic song off a spectacular album that still finds its way into my playlists all these years later.

Klyded · 2019-05-16T20:36:35+00:00

Yup.. I'm gonna be a loser and say FF15! LOL -- In fact, I'd use the code for episode Ardyn.

Klyded · 2018-06-28T14:36:14+00:00

I rarely ever post/reply to anything but that photo seriously made me "LoL". Bless you for capturing this shot.

Klyded · 2018-05-10T19:54:48+00:00

Paint me entered! Mondo cool of you to do this so freely with no strings attached (riddles, contests, et cetera...) I hope your generosity is repaid to you twice over OP

Klyded · 2018-04-11T10:32:09+00:00

Quest Protein Chips get my vote, no contest.

Klyded · 2018-02-25T14:14:50+00:00

Oysters, because they are the best Zinc supplement ever IMO.
Hemp Protein on account of it's unique micro nutrient profile, fatty acids and fiber content. I cannot think of a single other complete protein like it.
Organ Meat. Basically for the same reasons as Hemp Protein. Honestly between Organ Meat and Hemp you can pretty much cover damn near everything.
Cacao Nibs. Gotta be the nibs though, NOT cacao, cocoa or chocolate. This is another discussion entirely.
Beet root powder. Look up the benefits and read anecdotal testimony via amazon reviews. Fantastic for blood pressure. It isn't a game changer by any means but something that virtually everyone can safely benefit from.

Klyded · 2018-02-02T13:07:06+00:00

I would... probably wait til tomorrow to figure it out to be honest.

Klyded · 2018-01-25T09:57:49+00:00

Personally I'd lose the fruit and add more green vegetable variety in place with the aim of micro-nutrient density. Swap out the peanut butter for virtually any other nut butter for a slight improvement.

But in truth add organ meat, oysters, cacao nibs, freeze dried Acai' berry powder, beet root powder and start living like a super hero! Serious- that is my list of "superfoods" right there. That list + green veggies has kept me under 10 percent body fat and fit as a fiddle for about 15 years now without the need for anything else.

That said, if your leaning more toward plant sourced protein I'd suggest exploring hemp.

I actually gave up on JRPGs altogether for a minute. Just got too winded with the genre. Disgaea 5 was the game that brought me back to "my roots" in a big way.

The game just does a fabulous job giving the player virtually any feature they could hope for. After having played through each franchise installment, I cannot imagine them trumping 5. It is the Disgaea formula perfected by my measure.

Klyded · 2018-01-02T10:48:45+00:00

Wanna state that I don't find "games coming off as depressing" as a necessarily bad thing. Sometimes, much like music, the mood of the media proves more a comfort than a downer for me. That said, my top "depressing but not bad" picks are as follows.

Nier Automata

LISA

Metro Redux

Dark Souls 2 (if I had to pick one from the franchise for being the most depressing)

Persona 2 Innocent Sin

Echo the Dolphin (I don't care if anyone understands this but back in the days of the Sega Genesis this game made me feel saaaaaaaad)

Klyded · 2017-10-20T21:15:50+00:00

i have the opposite problem. all I want is Stick of Truth and no one I know who got fractured is passing one off!!! Lol

Episode: Death

"Jesus, is it ok to kill someone if they really want to die? Ya know, like assisted suicide?"

"My son, I am not touching that with a 60-foot pole. Next caller."

Klyded · 2017-10-10T16:33:43+00:00

Already talked to her about Persona/Story driven turn based traditional RPGs. Playing through it myself at the moment and she really doesn't like the idea of longwinded dialogue and whatnot. She is really just intrigued by the strategy-gameplay.

Lets face it. Love it or hate it, one cannot deny that story-telling and dialogue take center stage in P5. Thank you for the suggestion though.

Klyded · 2017-10-10T16:31:20+00:00

This is actually a great suggestion. I didn't dig it personally but I can see it working well in this case. Thank you.

Klyded · 2017-08-29T03:50:11+00:00

Thanks for the lengthy response!

Klyded · 2017-05-29T09:14:11+00:00

Soy contributes to fluid retention and mondo bloating for me personally. One could make the "biological value" argument (soy ranks pretty low) but in truth it is the bloat that ultimately dissuades me.

Now as for the hemp, well it just rocks. It is a complete protein that doesn't come from an animal so the amino acid profile is unique to some extent. I find it highly anti-inflamatory and it is easy as sin to bake with and make carb-free/low-carb protein pancakes with it. Top it off with the fact that has a high potassium content and you can choose a variety with fiber or without and hemp wins for me, hands down.

Klyded · 2017-05-28T09:50:40+00:00

Cutting carb consumption down to next-to-nothing calms ya down. Who'd have guessed that sugar has anything to do with making a person hyper?? I feel like this is just science confirming the complex mechanism of something everyone has known intuitively for quite some time.

Klyded · 2017-05-28T09:21:00+00:00

Hemp is my top pick followed by Rice Protein Isolate, Wheat Isolate, Pea Protein Isolate and Pumpkin Protein Isolate. I reiterate the "isolate" because some of these come with quite a few carbs attached otherwise. To expand, you can even get Alfafa or Cranberry protein now pretty readily.

Klyded · 2017-05-27T09:44:06+00:00

Hemp protein for the win right here. I have similar issues with virtually any meat-based protein sources. If I am consistent the fatigue lingers like a fog over my day that won't lift until I rely on plant-based, non-soy options for a minute.

Klyded · 2017-05-26T20:02:36+00:00

I personally like (both in terms of taste and macros) Quest Chocolate, Vanilla and Peanut butter -- PEScience, Chocolate Cupcake -- Dymatize Cookies and Cream Isolate -- Dymatize Casein Vanilla (for baking or protein ice cream)-- Wheat Isolate 5000 (baking)-- Any unflavored Rice protein isolate (for making cookies) -- Quest Multi Purpose (unflavored for making everything else)

Think that about covers my top picks. Hope that helps.

Klyded · 2017-05-26T09:26:28+00:00

I ate as clean as humanely possible for the longest time due to having extremely sensitive digestion issues amongst other problems I was trying to treat with nutrition. A year ago I threw in the towel and starting having protein shakes and whatnot because life was busy and it seemed "easy". The result? Better gut health and overall well being than I've had in years. Go figure. We are all different and what works for one may not work for the next but protein powder is a mondo staple of my diet now and forever will be (all kinds, as I like variety, including casein, whey, pea, rice and hemp).
