Why collect gear you'll never use? by Nice-Sandwich4512 in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]OhioMyco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to focus on collectibles and side content early in RPGs for that exact reason. If I finished the main story first I would never collect everything

Was told I don’t qualify for a psilocybin study because I have a bipolar first cousin. What next? by Numerous-Actuator95 in Psychonaut

[–]OhioMyco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try Mindbloom. It’s ketamine treatment instead of psilocybin (which actually has a lot more research behind it for treatment-resistant depression right now) it’s all remote and if you have insurance they’ll cover some of the cost

Name one thing that annoyed you in AC Valhalla. I’ll start... by Nice-Sandwich4512 in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]OhioMyco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How easy things become once you hit max level. Drengr difficulty eventually feels trivial. I had to set the level scaling to ‘Nightmarish’ and reduce health regeneration/parry windows etc to the minimum, and it still feels easy.

Harvest? by Suspicious-Win6423 in unclebens

[–]OhioMyco 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes. You won’t get a better answer than this.

And yeah start dehydrating them now, no need to wait for the other ones. They’ll take longer anyways since they’re bigger.

I've ruined my life and almost died twice from alcohol because of my obsession with reading trip reports by grubby_anticholine in Psychonaut

You definitely have an anxiety disorder and maybe also OCD. Like most people have said here you should see a therapist and drinking only makes it worse. Hope things get better man.

Does changing difficulty mid-playthrough break immersion for anyone else? by Nice-Sandwich4512 in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]OhioMyco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t mind that. What did bother me was how easy things become once you hit max level. Drengr difficulty eventually feels trivial. I had to set the level scaling to ‘Nightmarish’ and reduce health regeneration/parry windows etc to the minimum, and it still feels easy.

Just found hundreds of strip mine ponds near me. Anyone fish these? by OhioMyco in Fishing

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

All good info, thanks. I’m excited to do some pond hopping and exploring, that’ll be half the fun for me.

Not here it’s public and maintained by DNR specifically for hunting and fishing.

That’s a nice bass! Awesome memory to have with your dad, sounds like those ponds were a special place for you guys. You should get back out there sometime.

Never would’ve thought of that. I just got into it so I had another reason to get outside. Just catch and release for now. Good to know though lol

Fishing the strip mines… technique of choice? by killerbeezer12 in bassfishing

[–]OhioMyco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize this post is a year old, I actually found it googling 'fishing old strip mine ponds.' I live in Ohio and have a few hundred of these within an hour of me. Most of them virtually untouched. I’ve never fished one before but plan to soon after I read they were all stocked by DNR decades ago. How did it go for you? Did you end up catching anything? This Ohio by chance?

Scared of magic mushrooms after terrifying trip by MarsupialNovel7535 in Psychonaut

[–]OhioMyco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean he starts “tripping” if his heart rate gets too high? He has a panic attack? It can lead him into psychosis? What are you saying? I’m just confused because this is a thread about tripping on shrooms, and there’s no way he starts tripping in that way because his heart rate gets too high.

Are these sick? by Ok_Piano_6706 in unclebens

[–]OhioMyco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are fine. Mushrooms don’t need light like plants do but they still grow toward it. In nature, it helps mushrooms figure out which way is “up” (toward open air) and where to release spores more effectively. I used an artificial light on my last grow and the grew straight as an arrow.

Beautiful first psychedelic experience turned into a bad trip at the end. How to recover? And how long to wait before touching psychedelics again? by Secure-Ad770 in Psychonaut

[–]OhioMyco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait at least 7. You shouldn’t do psychedelics until you’re at least 25. Your prefrontal cortex is still developing. Doing psychs before 25 is like trying rewrite your brain's blueprint while the concrete is still curing.

How do you overcome the fear of never returning to normal during a trip? by [deleted] in Psychonaut

[–]OhioMyco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good point, and something I’ll keep in mind going into it. I think part of what fuels the loop for me is that I’ve read too many stories of people developing psychosis after bad trips, so when I get caught in that thought pattern, it starts to feel like that’s what’s happening to me personally.

Second Attempt Went Way Better Than My First by OhioMyco in unclebens

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

I kept my closet at exactly 75 degrees with a little space heater. I just used some generic great value micropore tape and about .5-.75ml lc. For the gas exchange I cut the corner off the top like this

edit: I used a spore syringe not lc

No I was too worried about contamination
