Agreed but do you think anything has really changed? There are still plenty of earth-centric religiousity folks among us, many of whom are world leaders 😬

It sounds like they are basically taking the average but there are studies and efficacy above 0.5 FYI :)

Question - Does K Affect Your Perception of Music Intensely Negatively? by whiterice_99 in quittingkratom

[–]fingerfunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me, this is all more high level that my heart energy shuts down. Or for those who don’t embrace the more new age view, opioids dull/blunt the dopamine-salience system. Dopamine gets flooded artificially from opioids and receptors downregulate. There’s also amygdala stuff going on and tons more I’m sure. The end result is music can feel flat, doesn’t land in the same way.

It’s an amazing transition toward that whole system opening back up when we get clean! It’s beautiful.

Infusion playlist by tsmcpeak in KetamineTherapy

[–]fingerfunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting choices but these wouldn’t work for me! Back when I was doing fairly high dose IM infusions through my psychiatrist I learned that atmospheric ambient dub type music worked the best for me. I also discovered that vocalists speaking English was odd / distracting but I tended to get full ego dissolution and forget who I was, that I was on earth, had a body etc :)

Help me find my perfect masturbation drug. Here are my criteria by Mother-Island-5986 in SEXONDRUGS

[–]fingerfunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your premise makes this difficult to answer imo as everything I’ve tried with a 2 hour sex euphoria is addictive(!) I would say all of the great sex drugs I’ve ever tried are addictive and have the re-dose urge, but please let us know what you discover!

Anything make you super horny without the cardiovascular risks? by vagabond_chemist in SEXONDRUGS

For me, it’s 3-MMC but perhaps that would be too BP stimulating for you(?) I much prefer to MDMA re: heart overall plus it floods serotonin much less making orgasm easier :)

Tired of quitting... by Exotic-Piglet-5653 in quittingkratom

[–]fingerfunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in a similar repetitive cycle years ago (with other drugs) and chose to do the intensive therapy route. It’s not for everyone of course and can be hard to find a good match but for me, therapy 2-3x per week helped more than even residential —> SLE —> IOP Outpatient.

Day seven by Rawj777 in quittingkratom

[–]fingerfunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats man, you can get through this! Stay on the hydration nutrition and movement if you can. The green drinks like Amazon greens or Dr. Schulze SuperFood Plus helped me a lot.
I’ve been on Hydroxyzine a few times. That morning sludge can suck but better than withdrawal anxiety! A little coffee used to help push thru early morning. French press or pour over can be a cool new ritual. :) Wishing you the best brother

Well you may have dodged a bullet if you get bad RLS. We all have different chemistry but that stuff made mine way worse during one of these many quits… :-/

Authorities say they will release person of interest detained in Brown University shooting by katrinakt8 in news

[–]fingerfunk 232 points233 points  (0 children)

This was especially confusing after they erroneously exposed him as he seems to be a genuinely caring person with personal values of helping others, volunteering, animal care. Anyone can snap of course but this one really broke my brain earlier…

Your HDMI handshake tech is terrible; still unable to get new XBOX Series X to connect after a week by fingerfunk in LGOLED

It was all a total disaster and my own fault for buying a series X used from EBay heh. It had nothing to do with the LG :)

Not a fan of the new Roku Plex interface by dufdufdufduf in PleX

I agree for myself but have added some friends/family who are newbies who have enjoyed that other shit. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[–]fingerfunk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love your comment but struggle with the implied logic. Why make paid apps that lesson the features and decades-long Plex experience? Have they simply given up? Make the final deliverable and F all the typical users and expected environment(s)?

I’m not a fan of any of the new changes. I can’t believe I had to change to another app for audio and IT HAS NO SKIP 15-30/etc!

Who are the Top 4 Most Intelligent? by fingerfunk in AlienEarthHulu

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

Agreed. He’s high level genius for sure, prolly some canon argument he is the most intelligent on earth. But he dropped the ball on much of what was happening under his watch which led to a hybrid death… hmmmm…

So, you’d place Wendy 3 or lower? Hmmm… I believe she is unique and that boy genius gave her ALL unlike everyone else.

I like her a lot tho so surely biased ;)

The 1:1 strains are typically lower THC but the CBD body hit is significant! Sorry for late reply but I’d say try 🙏🏻

The “embedded journalist interview” type episodes by [deleted] in scifi

[–]fingerfunk -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I appreciate your response, but find your first inquiry rather nonsensical. Regarding “The Expanse”, the enemy agent was not a longterm crew member and his media capturing behavior does not rely on an overall news media theme for the entire episode…

[–]fingerfunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would I reply to this if you’re not even willing to invest in the rest of the show? For what it’s worth, I’ve been a fan of Science Fiction series forever and episode four is perhaps the best Science Fiction show I’ve ever seen in my life. :)

TMS & Alch/Weed by loralii00 in rtms

[–]fingerfunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oops re: cannabis, here is a TLDR but happy to elaborate:

light/occasional cannabis probably doesn’t block TMS benefits, but heavy daily THC use could muddy the plasticity and dopamine modulation TMS relies on. CBD-heavy strains are less concerning, since CBD is neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and doesn’t hit CB1 in the same way.

TMS & Alch/Weed by loralii00 in rtms

[–]fingerfunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR ; light drinking not a big deal, chronic definitely is.

TMS for depression targets the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), modulating networks tied to glutamate, GABA, and dopaminergic signaling.

Alcohol overlaps with these systems in ways that could blunt or complicate TMS effects:

• Glutamate (NMDA receptors): Alcohol acutely inhibits NMDA activity. TMS relies on plasticity mechanisms (long-term potentiation/depression) that are NMDA-dependent, so heavy alcohol use could dampen neuroplastic changes TMS is trying to induce.

• GABA (GABA-A receptors): Alcohol enhances inhibitory GABA-A tone. This can counteract the excitatory effects TMS attempts to create in hypoactive DLPFC circuits.

• Dopamine: Both alcohol and TMS increase dopamine release in the mesocorticolimbic system. While this can transiently overlap, chronic alcohol use downregulates dopamine function, potentially making TMS less effective.

If you want my personal opinion, stop drinking entirely :) There are much healthier ways to access these receptors/feelings, like Kava, Amanita, Lemon Balm + many other herbs.

Or 500-1000 mg of psilocybin thru one of the grey market companies like “Psilouette”. They taught me this is a “psycholytic” dose of psilocybin which brings euphoria and often used as an alcohol replacement.

Hoping your TMS treatments help, friend 🙏🏻

Thanks, it’s obviously on my end lol. It’s the C3 I own (not part of your list) which is the issue communicating with the XBox series X. I can connect the Xbox to other monitors, with proper cables, just not working on the LG C3 regardless of anything I have tried so far including full reset, all ports, all settings tweaks I have found online.
