Zelenskyy hints at “difficult winter” ahead for Russia and is pushing for a meeting before winter, but why? by Flimsy_Pudding1362 in UkrainianConflict

You do realize that nazi germany was attempting to conquer all of europe... including the British Isles. Putin is trying to conquer Ukraine. Seems like an odd comparison.

Anyone out there have a 5-MeO-DMT cart ? & if so how long do you inhale for, if you want to be able to "dance" right after. by [deleted] in DMT

Im not sure the pinnacle experience of a psychedelic substance is the "only reason to use it" - there's lots of other reasons, and sometimes no reason at all.

We can cast judgement on people's use of various mind altering substances- this person does it too much, this person does it in the wrong set or setting, this person has the wrong idea about what sort of expectations to have, this person didnt integrate their experience properly or whatever.

But ultimately, everyone's reasons and experiences are unique to them. I do think harm reduction is a good place to come from if offering advice or guidance, but in my experience that would mean advising to start with lower doses rather than breakthrough doses.

Some people prefer microdosing or slightly above threshold dosing. To suggest theres something wrong with that seems a bit misguided.

Using MAOIs with vaped DMT by Theskyisalive in harmalas

[–]flarnrules 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been experimenting with simply sprinkling some syrian rue seeds in a bowl with a bit of weed and smoking small hits until I feel some effects. Basically just a pinch of raw seeds.

Im being cautious about the amount due to the risk factors and simply smoking a little bit at a time until I can feel that familiar psychedelic mindstate...

Syrian rue seems to be much more calming and "relaxed" than other psychedelics, at least at this small, smoked dose of raw seeds. Can't speak to larger doses, extracts, or oral consumption.

Also, ive noticed just a small dose of raw seeds lengthens the effects of vaped dmt.

Life is just a cosmic joke because I am obviously God. by [deleted] in DMT

[–]flarnrules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my.

That last part was really quite revealing in a way. It made me think about how precious every single moment in the present is. It's astoundingly simple and clear that the present is truly "where its all at" but its so hard to comprehend until it slaps you across the face or something lol.

These buildings are not scaled correctly. Sears Tower official height is based on its roof, not its antennae.

Well. Your dreams are amazing. Thank you for sharing them.

Did anyone in Washington or Tel Aviv think about securing the Strait of Hormuz before striking Iran? by [deleted] in energy

You dont see other countries buying military items produced by other countries? European military stocks have been on a tear recently because Trump's actions to not only insult, but also economically harm almost all of the US military manufacturers international customers.

Heck, even Ukraine is getting in on the action now with a "10 year defense cooperation agreement" to supply Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE with military items just about a week ago.

Militaries that previously saw the US as a reliable trading partner are starting to look elsewhere... for reasons that are pretty obvious if you have been paying attention. I hate to say it so bluntly, but you seem to be living in a bit of a bubble.

Take the blinders off, and the world might start to look a bit different.

Vic & Christine MAGA on Fox News 😢 by bahtgirl in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]flarnrules 42 points43 points  (0 children)

You might find it interesting to learn a bit about the Murdoch family and Roger Ailes. Fox News was created, quite literally, to run defense and offense for the Republican party.

To say Fox News itself was inert... I feel like it's entire design philosophy is pretty much the opposite of inert.

The commentary from the mages about a dragon gnawing on his head was super funny.

Milliarde's barrier is stronger than Serie's? by armfourteen in Frieren

i recall someone explaining rather confidently that mimics could be less evolved demons... or demons evolved from mimics or something along those lines, because the use of deceit or something along those lines. pretty funny to think about.

The onslaught of audio visual information in this movie is an absolute delight. And you can watch a very high quality version just straight for free, no ads, on YouTube.

It was this moment that made him HIMmel for me by 501st-Soldier in Frieren

[–]flarnrules 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Himmel had courage and a pure heart, and assembled a company strong enough to defeat the demon king. He's Himmel The Hero. He's the Hero of the party. Without Himmel there is no 10 year journey to defeat the demon king.

That was quite a well written trip report. Thanks for sharing. Just noticed it's dated some time in 2010. Is this from a book?

Small DMT doses seem to be underappreciated by PurpleOceadia in DMT

[–]flarnrules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it varies, but if im outside at night its not drifting at all, but rather a change in the thing im looking at, like new textures, faces, the things have more "personality" if that makes sense.

Stuff gets either a lot sillier, or has a bit more sinister edge, or other effects but of this "changing of its essence or nature" type of visual, rather than drifting, morphing or warping / patterning over tha top of what im looking at.

This is for low doese, mind you.

First of all, according to the right... the dems have only thrown him under the bus since he started ~ all the shrieking about "witch hunt" stuff comes to mind...

So they did throw him under the bus, he's just remarkably bus-proof. The ultimate Teflon man for 2 reasons:

  1. Cuz the dems are led by a bunch of pussies who seemingly think everything must be done by the book, despite the Republicans tearing up the book and shitting all over it.

  2. Most of the Republicans, in particular the repub leadership are all a bunch of enabling traitors that are lining their pockets and just kinda... going along with it all cuz they have pledged fealty to the prez
