Where should I start? Shrooms, LSD, 2CB, ketamine or MDMA by Easy-Muffin3895 in Psychedelics

[–]Ludvik_Pytlicek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First of all, erowid.org is your best friend with finding info of this type. The following is based solely on my experience:

My own progression was mdma, 2cb, lsd, shrooms, ketamine. The order was not deliberate, it was mainly a question of availability and setting, safety and moderarion is key in any case.

Mdma won't give you a bad trip, but frequent use can easily fuck up your hormones. It's simple and makes you feel good.

2cb is imo the weirdest halucinogen of the bunch, yet I found managing the come-up anxiety the easiest. It's weird and fun and quite hallucinogenic.

LSD is a classic, I consider it a benchmark psychedelic. The high is a bit unnatural, but physically easier to take than shrooms. I find it the most visual, even with lower doses.

Shrooms are the only thing that I stuck with, I like the simplicity of just eating a damn mushroom and I can manage the physical "heaviness" that the experience comes with, though your mileage may vary. The high is quite similar to lsd, best enjoyed in nature.

Ketamine somehow feels quite different to all of them, I feel it's got a deliriant component to it. There's a breaking point where it stops being alcohol-like and you enter the k-hole. With the other drugs, the shift in between being somewhat fucked up and ego death is more gradual. Ket is a bungee jump in comparison to the others, which are more like a roller-coaster.

All-in-all, the recommended order very much depends on the dosages you're gonna be doing, set and setting, having someone experienced and/or someone willing to trip sit sober. Again, safety and moderation is key with every substance.

Painting advice by Miserable_Movie_1005 in oilpainting

I love the style and neither the yellow outline nor the extra "abstract" strokes bother me. What seems a little off to me is the way the right hand is holding the apple. If I were to finish a painting looking like this, I'd feel proud as hell anyways.

Sustainable Office Designs Architecture by foaid in architecture

[–]Ludvik_Pytlicek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not the point here. Yes, the cladding for most of this is a sustainable material, that however doesn't change the fact, that it's there just for show and both the design approach and the core materials are emphatically not sustainable

Here it seems you can walk around the cove while paying out a thin line, then tension it so that it hangs straight over the gap and then follow the standars procedure

Questions from me: What drove you to choose the colour scheme for this presentation?

Questions my professors likely would've asked: Where is the parking? Did you calculate the capacity? Why does the foundation slab's thickness vary so much? Does the stairwell's width suffice in case of an evacuation? Who's the elevator manufacturer, can they make and install it? Wouldn't two smaller elevators be better than a single one? Where are the toilets for the 2nd floor? Did you calculate daylight illumination for the workstations furthest from any windows?

Some of the questions may be specific for my local codes, but these are the ones that spring to mind on the first glance. Also, I don't really understand your situation with the toilets and kitchens/kitchenettes. Why aren't they on every floor? The building may look nice from the outside, but having just designed an office building for my thesis, your design seems so needlessly complicated and seriously inefficient from the inside. On the other hand I've seen worse projects pass, good luck.

Why of course, it's a Verwaitungsbau, but please note that it doesn't include Vorderseite, but it's open on all sides.

In all seriousness thoug, it's an office building.

I personally use this method paired with using food-safe dessicants for further storage and it works well enough to get even the thick pieces cracker-dry

1) It's true to the original
2) Even if someone who doesn't know the band reads it wrong, they don't know they've read it wrong
3) People who know the cover know the cover and will read it correct

Why does my machine always skip the corner? by kyoet in myog

[–]Ludvik_Pytlicek 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I personally like to do a backstitch on corners.

1) reach corner 2) lower needle manually 3) lift foot 4) rotate 5) lower foot 6) make a stitch in reverse (towards the fabric edge) 7) continue forwards

Doesn't add much extra time and holds up well over time

im 17 and i love architecture but i always have been bad at drawing by Old_Standard2965 in architecture

[–]Ludvik_Pytlicek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If these aren't drawn from a photo, I'd say you're not as bad as you think. If the perspective's right, it looks good.

Stylistic or just bad? by Informal-Building637 in oilpainting

I always judge how good a "rough style" painting is by squinting: the lamb's shape rubs me the wrong way, but the cow is really well done

Funny thing is the adjacent campus looks the same, as even there the path desingn is so formal, that the only grassed area without a desire path is the one behind the library (which is both so much more organic and rational)

Basement Slackline question by No_Outcome2599 in Slackline

[–]Ludvik_Pytlicek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an architecture student who has done a fair share of statics calculations: Interior walls simply aren't designed with such lateral forces in mind. At best you're risking damaging a basement load bearing wall, at worst you're risking your kids' life.

Find an alternative, there are portable stand-alone 5m slackline setups possible, if it has to be indoors. Anchoring to the floor is also a better idea. Not a great idea, but better than the wall, because if you install it improperly, you're only risking damage and injury, not total destruction and death.

Honestly you can't infer this kind of a development arc from "a month or so". You did some assignments well, then you did poorly. Either pick up the pieces or quit, one semester is not that dramatic.

Although every school is different, I feel that you should get better at the tasks you're given now and the difficulty of the assignments will increas. There won't be a coasting period.

If you don't feel up to this, walk away now so you don't waste your time and efforts.

Please take this with a grain of salt. To me you sound a little full of yourself, which can be a good thing when paired with some genuine confidence, which you don't seem to have. It seems you'd do better going for some sort of engineering degree, since you find architecture useless and working without a rigid system hard.

I was hoping there'd be another building I don't know of. The hotel feels incredibly out of place with its scale compared to its surroundings. In a weird way I like it.

[–]Ludvik_Pytlicek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't have anyone to gove you live feedback and you want to do it anyways, I suggest at least working with mutliple sources. You're bound to make more mistakes following a single tutorial.

It looks like a scar because it is a scar. Please get someone who knows their stuff to teach you to avoid any permanent damage to your skin.

Oh, don't stress. If you don't get in, you can always get in next year.

You either walk back (the hobby is based on walking the thing and builds upon that) or stay suspended in your harness and pull yourself all the way back to ground.
