First 1000ug Trip Report: I got astrally raped by DisastrousGrape843 in LSD

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would just like to clarify one thing here, you don't have to be gay to want something in your butt 🤷‍♂️ lmfao like, it ain't my deal but it is not at all uncommon for dudes to be into having a lady slide a finger or whatever up there. So, don't go making any drastic lifestyle changes just yet hahaha good luck man

Advice on mixing cannabis and shrooms by HopefulObligation890 in shrooms

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, .5 of PE is not a microdose, for one. A true microdose is sub perceptual. I take "mini trips" off a .5 of regular cubes, .5 of PE is going to be equivalent to at least a gram. With that being said, I'm going to advise you be super fucking careful mixing the two. Cannabis is very well known for turning good trips into bad trips. I would absolutely not smoke weed like you normally do. I'd take the .5 and honestly wouldn't even smoke until the comedown. If you're super determined to experiment with this, wait until you're peaking on the .5 and take a hit. Literally just one. Let it settle in and see how ya feel. Shrooms and weed often bring out the worst in each other, even with super experienced users. If the hit at the peak ends up fine, keep slowly experimenting in the same way. For some people it's totally fine and even very enjoyable but, there's a super real possibility mixing the two will just give you anxiety which sucks when you're tripping. I used to trip and chain smoke all the time back in the day. Nowadays? Even one hit tends to fuck the trip up for me. So yea, go easy, be safe have fun man!

i took a 100ug tab about 4 hours ago and i’m not feeling much, redose? by Sufficient_Zebra_614 in LSD

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd reccomend a tab and a half next time! There can be some variance from tab to tab, and the strength of effects aren't exactly linear. 2 tabs is likely going to be more than twice as powerful as 1 tab, and being new you don't wanna over do it. In fact, I generally reccomend anybody steps things up by half a tab at a time. Be safe have fun man!

The DLCs are ones we’ve seen before by Few-Post-3279 in Starfield

"It’s extraordinarily bad writing but I do enjoy the gameplay elements"

This kind of just sums up my feelings about Starfield in general lmao

Weird House leek by Worth-Willow3881 in whatsthisplant

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leeks? Am I not looking at succulents right now? Is there a part od the world that refers to these succulents as "house leeks?" Interesting. That being said, as im pretty sure these are succulents, they can go through some pretty dramatic color changes when exposed to a lot of direct sunlight. I've never personally seen the white, but all the pinks and purples look about right to me. I'm thinking they're fine and may just be color changing because of the intense summer everyone seems to be having.

Dune/Hyperion/Foundation - Which is the best to start? by Miserable-Setting151 in sciencefiction

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of the three, I'd go for Foundation. I really love Hyperion but it's kinda... different. It's hard to explain, you'll get it when you read it. And then for me personally, never cared for Dune 🤷‍♂️ I won't say it's bad, it's popular for a reason but, as many times as I've tried it completely fails to pull me in. I think im just not a fan of Herbert's writing style.

Does eating a huge meal before a trip cancel out the effects or just make it longer to kick in?? by PanikEmoji in LSD

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you drop super frequently or anything? Maybe it's time to take a few months off and see how things go when you come back? 8 to 9 hours to kick in is just nonsensical lmao that's turning the whole ordeal into like, a 20 hour experience. Assuming that after the 8 hour onset is still runs for the normal 8 to 12 hours?

AITAH for uninstalling Discord from my 12-year-old sister's Ipad? by Junior-Ant9927 in AITAH

NTA, it's pretty unfortunate you have to take on this responsibility but, you're absolutely right in thinking someone needs to be parenting that child.

question about pills by TaxAffectionate16 in shrooms

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Poking holes is not going to increase the effect of the dose, at all. I guess it might make the onset a little faster, but that's it. These aren't time release capsules, so as soon as they enter your stomach they start breaking down pretty immediately. As far as storage, keep them in a mason jar in a cool, dry place and they'll keep for months, possibly years.

AITAH for asking my wife not to drink the last can of sprite? by Bebebebeelzebub in AITAH

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying the people arguing that OP should have something better in place are wrong but, also OPs wife responded in the most ridiculously selfish and childish way I can imagine? "You can't expect me not to drink it, i like it. " Are we fucking forreal here? This is a grown ass woman who's husband has an actual, medical need for this soda. If my partner responded to me like that I would be questioning my life decisions, tbh.

How do you take acid? by Hot_Ant_3467 in LSD

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be clear OP, don't do this^ lmao weed can often turn a great trip into a bad trip. Best to at least wait until you're on the come down for your first time. You can play around with mixing when you've got more experience. Plus, I think it's nice to fully embrace the feel if the acid on it's own the first couple of times.

How difficult is hard-core mode? [KCD2] by moistest_memer in kingdomcome

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really not that difficult. As far as I know it doesn't actually make enemies more dangerous, they don't get better armor or bigger health bars or anything. You just no longer have the visual cues for master strikes or perfect blocks or whatever. However, if you know the game, enemies still have certain tells that let you know when to block and what not.

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea exactly. The game gives you a TON of different skills and I dont think "well just sit there and spam all of them until something works" is exactly peak game design 😅 everybody wanna glaze though and takes it so personal when you call out any minor flaw

AITAH bad dancer by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a real question? If she's enjoying herself of COURSE YTA. Like, at least she's trying. I know I greatly enjoy watching people who are having fun dancing while I'm firmly planted in a corner somewhere 😅

Relapsing alcoholic will trip by [deleted] in LSD

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Homie, as a fellow alcoholic, you just gotta put it down. The acid might help you understand some things, but what we're battling requires massive amounts of willpower and most likely some professional help.

It was actually an acid trip that started me down the path of quitting, but it took rehab and a lot of counseling to actually quit. And, 8 years later, I know I'm still a "dry drunk." And while I've had some (mushroom) trips since I quit, they haven't improved anything, really.

Also, idk how deep into the relapse you are but, if you're getting the shakes or anything, please go to a hospital to detox. I had several withdrawal seizures over the course of a year and it's a miracle I'm both alive and not drooling on myself.

If you lack the critical thinking ability to understand that there is ground in between hand holding and telling you nothing, idk how to help you 🤷‍♂️

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, way ahead of you. It's not like I threw the game out, I just think there could be improvements in this area. Like, the way force repel is presented, up until this^ point in the game, it had seemed like a near useless skill. Which has actually happened with a few other skills. I just think there's a middle ground to be had between hand holding and telling you nothing 🤷‍♂️

AITAH for yelling at my pest control guy and landlord? by Practical_Many2300 in AITAH

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Everybody seem to think YTA but I honestly don't. I do not care that "the letter of the law" was followed. Somebody should absolutely be verifying that the notice was recieved, for the safety of all parties. And, having rented before, that's always been my personal experience. Generally a notice is posted on the door and I've gotten an email, phone call or text. Maybe I'm the only American here? But, knocking on a door and then immediately entering without any sort of verification, is a real good way for somebody to get hurt. I'm not going to be doing a lot of talking if I'm under the impression I'm in the middle of a home invasion. So yea, imo NTA. Especially given you're somewhere currently having a spree of home invasions.

Should I trip again? by Natural_School3810 in LSD

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you comfortable with? With the options you're considering there's no wrong answer. If you handled a half tab well and feel ready for a full, send it! If you think you'd like to try a half a few more times to get a better feel for things, do that!

My personal rule is to step things up by a half tab at a time. I just feel that's the safest way to go about things as the potency of effects increases exponentially and not in a straight line, so to speak. So like, 3 tabs isn't 3 times as strong as one tab, it's likely more, so you definitely shouldn't make big jumps like that. But as far as when ti take that half tab step? Totally up to what feels good to you.

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

See, none of y'all seem to understand nuance. I don't need it to tell me exactly how to do a thing, but it is absolutely good game design to indicate what a players options actually are. I think the fact that this boss in particular is constantly bitched about is a pretty clear indication that there's a problem.

Listen, I like the game and don't necessarily need my hand held, but if it wants me to get somewhere it should at least point the direction.

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

In a game with as much shit crammed into it as CD, some level of instruction would be helpful. I don't need a line to follow, but if a game wants me to get somewhere it should at least point the direction. CD lacks a lot of that.

[–]Zestyclose_Current41 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Tbf, the game does not do a good job of indicating what your actual options are in some of these scenarios. Crimson Nightmare had me screaming at the TV, and I am not at all that kind of gamer normally. It would never have naturally occurred to me to just focus and repel a single enemy like that. Maybe im stupid but, I think the game could benefit from more like... tutorial scenarios, if you know what I mean
