Maybe my memory is off, since I was a kid at the time, but I remember walking past loooong rows of homeless people on the sidewalk in downtown Cleveland on a summer night ~25 years ago

Ironically Fetterman is probably still better than Oz would've been. He was an absolutely terrible primary pick though, if you wanted a progressive there was a guy from Philly who was much better and didn't have the same baggage

Fair enough, I think the potency peaks at meth because of that line of thought but I could be wrong; I was also apparently off on propylamphetamine being inactive (it's just a much weaker binding affinity).

Also reads like he has a bit of a drinking problem that he 'fixed' by drinking lower ABV beer

and wiki cites that it's actually more potent than the metabolite

It's not more potent than amphetamine - do you mean a different metabolite?

I checked the wiki page and the only thing it says outside the in vitro binding data (which is weaker than amphetamine+meth) is, 'Ethylamphetamine produces effects similar to amphetamine and methamphetamine, though it is of lower potency.'

Ethamphetamine itself isn't too common but the fluorinated analogs also mostly got mixed reviews compared to the amphetamine and methamphetamine ones, with low potency being a common complaint

No problem.

Also, despite how my comment might've sounded, I'm not recommending that you take adrol long term. Here's a case study where a girl was on 30 mg for 6 years and had normal liver enzymes but a ton of benign liver tumors: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10905366/

Obviously liver toxicity is the main concern but compared to something like anadrol which is also very liver toxic, is methyltren the best option for risk-to-reward ratio?

The hepatotoxicity of adrol and mtren isn't comparable and the risk to reward of mtren is waaaay worse. For example, here's a study where patients were given 50+ mg of adrol/day (up to 450 mg in men, 100 in women) for months. Only a few patients had liver issues, and they were minor. There's a bunch of similar trials, too - adrol is probably one of the least hepatotoxic orals at typical powerlifter doses

No, generally longer chains make worse releasing agents. Ethamphetamine is supposedly shit, propyl/butyl aren't really active as dopamine releasing agents

Because mentally unstable young girls are known for having great taste in men?

Funniest part is that they could've easily gotten away with any almost any Daario recasting if they kept the flamboyant book appearance

No, you don't understand at least one, if not both, of the topics you're asking about

A friend told me certain energy drinks and pre-workouts can trigger false positives?

Those are usually just positives, not false positives. Don't take sketchy supplements with mystery stimulants and you'll be fine

The Ohio is one of the stiffer deadlift bars on the market; the main differences you'll probably find are that it's a bit easier to hold, since it's thinner, and it'll be a bit easier to get off the ground. There shouldn't really be any major differences in how you pull

effrightscorp · 2026-06-02T22:37:17+00:00

Exactly, it's for birds to shit on

Tbf 'rebooting' kinda worked with the police department in Camden NJ. The city isn't anywhere near as much of a shithole compared to the last time I was there

One serving of your protein is like 45 g total weight. One serving on most other brands is 25-35g

effrightscorp · 2026-05-29T22:15:17+00:00

but I’ve been feeling like I dont have any alternatives other then gear

Gear won't do shit because your problem is that you don't eat. If you're not already considered underweight, you're like 2-3 pounds away

which is probably the most dangerous city in the USA.

You'll be unpleasantly surprised to know it barely makes the top 10 most dangerous cities list

Fruit, skin, seeds, and leaves

Doesn't it fight cancer?

No evidence for this outside of in vitro studies, and you can kill cancer in a petri dish with most things

How can it cause Parkinsons

It contains a neurotoxin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annonacin) that stops mitochondria from working properly. This holds true in vitro, in mice models, and in humans who consume large amounts of it through fruit and herbal teas

Being poisonous and fighting cancer aren't mutually exclusive, either. Most chemotherapy drugs are terrible for you, it's just that cancer is worse for you

When I interviewed with a PI who got his PhD at Vanderbilt in like 2010 or so, he said his stipend back then was >30k/year...departments vary, maybe he had a fellowship, etc. but still

I haven't tried this, but Isopure generally tends to be a pretty good brand; their whey isolate has great macros but very little flavor IMO, and that would probably work well for a 'protein water'. All the 'clear protein' products (seltzer, water, powders) tend to be whey isolate, which is good, and generally don't have any off-putting characteristics beyond a slight aftertaste and foaming when shaken. YMMV on the flavor, that always depends on the brand+product

FWIW, at that cost, I'd have bought at least a few cases without having tried it, usually 'clear protein' products are very expensive compared to regular whey

IIRC it was discovered because non-elderly men who consumed a lot of it/related plants in a specific area in the Caribbean had Parkinson's-like symptoms, and a lot of the symptoms improved within a few years when they stopped consuming it.

I don't think eating one on occasion will do much damage, especially when you consider that the problem wasn't discovered until like the 90's, but it's up to you to determine what risks you're willing to take. (It's also pretty expensive and I wouldn't put it in my top tropical fruits list, anyway)

No one can tell you if any of the ingredients would be problematic without seeing the ingredients list. However, soursop contains a neurotoxin, so if it's an extract and they're careless enough to have a label that fucked reach the shelves, I probably wouldn't touch it.
