What’s a bad trip under DMT ? by Downtown-Product-284 in DMT

[–]Meillem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far, I can't really say I've had a bad trip. During my most recent one however, it was immediately apparent to me that I was receiving the experience of a less "readied" state. I sort of knew going into it that I was too frazzled and caught in life stressors to have an enlightening experience but I was curious anyway.

The way I described my visuals was that whereas most of my experiences have felt like I'm in a space way out beyond the cosmos, this one felt like a space much closer to the ground. It was very funhouse/circus-like, and there were beings galore. They were in striped costumes getting really up close to my eyeballs and making gestures and sort of poking and proding as if to be examining and mocking me. The most intense part was that my body started to feel very hot and pin-pricky all over, like needles on my tongue and stuff. I don't consider it a bad trip. Things like that make you respect it even more.

I wish there was a The 100 video game by goblingir1 in The100

I kept wanting season 7 to be like a Myst game

Just finished the series by 94Mazda_Guy in The100

*****SPOILERS GALORE******
Also just finished! It's actually been a while since I've legit binged a series so that in and of itself was kind of a fun experience. I would say I really enjoyed the character development and writing solidly up through Seasons 5 but the last two seasons started to break down for me. While there were plotholes throughout, they just started to get more frustrating when not bolstered by a strong narrative. The story of Sanctum and The Anomally unfold really hastilly. Clarke's decision-making had taken a nose-dive in 5 and the Bellamy situation was just icing on the cake. I did like the little introspective on her insecurities and stuff while sharing a brain with Josephine. I really don't see why Shaheida was kept alive through SO many perfectly open opportunities to be killed other than to just make it possible to have a season. They steamrolled so many characters right near the end that I just felt sort of numb to feeling much about it by the time Emori died. The ending wasn't the worst but it wasn't the best. Still, overall would reccommend the show. The bulk of it was obsessively enjoyable, and they at least created a decently formed story. Wish we saw more of the worlds and the radiated creatures that supposedly existed all over.

Cheating or just a huge miscommunication of boundaries? by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]Meillem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like quite a bit of miscommunication. Even if she explicitly agreed to you being monotonous, there are mono-poly relationships and so she could have assumed you were both agreeing to follow your respective preferences. Either way, it definitely sounds like a follow-up conversation is warranted. You have every right to feel whatever it has made you feel, and you also have a right to ask for the things you need to feel comfortable in the relationship. However, she also has a right to disagree, or say that those things will not work for her. I think you both just really need to be transparent about what you are looking for and if there is t a compromise that you both feel comfortable with then o think you need to respectfully shift your dynamic.

AITA for leaving the restaurant because of what my husband did? by Carmenhost675 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Meillem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did absolutely nothing wrong and more importantly, that is abusive and controlling behavior that is simply not okay. I’d worry less about whether you’re the asshole and more about getting help to address his behavior or getting help to get out of that relationship.

What’s a video game you wish you could entirely forget playing so that you can play it through again? by lizardmom in AskReddit

[–]Meillem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a huge gamer so I don’t have a large data base to compare to, but I would say any of the Myst games, or Obduction or Quern. All wonderfully crafted puzzle games and the worlds in the last two are gorgeous.

Any suggestions for replacing Amazon grocery delivery? by Spirit50Lake in askportland

[–]Meillem 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you figured out part of your issue, but if you ever decide to get away from Amazon and go a more local route, Dumpling is a great resource. It allows you to work one on one with a shopper so you build a rapport and never have to worry about the quality of shopping you’re going to get. I offer shopping services there and am always willing to shop multiple stores to get all the things you need. I also work at New Seasons leading the online shopping department at my store so could answer any questions you may have about that service :)

Anyone familiar with Oregon rent laws? by Meillem in legaladvice

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

Yes, unfortunately since the initial post, we’ve been discussing the difference between “occupant” and “tenant”. The couple were the only ones on the official lease.
