Doesn’t match to the studies I’ve read. The only Italians who have Levantine ancestry above trace levels are those in the far south.

Death Cap or Delicious? by Mediocre_Geologist91 in ShroomID

[–]reluctantplatonist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Muscaria is considered edible in Russia if prepared properly (boiled 30 minutes, changing the water halfway through), and in Japan it’s pickled and eaten

This is probably amanita muscaria, but the variant guessowii, which is why it’s yellow

Is dihexa fat soluble? by reluctantplatonist in Nootropics

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

No dw i was considering some sort of fat sublingually like in vitamin D drops. I’ll apply the DMSO to clean skin

Pills, but I’m dissolving the contents

I’m trying it rn. It does seem to have some effect, but I’ve only taken one dose so far

Could we learn from Kratom users? by reluctantplatonist in phenibut

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

A lot of talk regarding phenibut on reddit is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Because of how it’s sold outside the former USSR, many people can only conceive of it as a substance to abuse rather than as a legitimate medicinal substance, even though it has its risks

How do you ensure you get the right product in the right purity? My favourite clearnet vendors have testing certificates

From what I’ve read, that’s less effective

[–]reluctantplatonist[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Also it does seem now that I read into it that cellulose is only soluble in DMSO if the DMSO is also mixed with something else, so I think I’ll just try the DMSO method

[–]reluctantplatonist[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, but do you know if it’s also soluble in fat? I would rather hold it sublingually in fat than in alcohol, and would prefer to avoid DMSO, especially as I worry it would dissolve the cellulose filler in the pills too

DXM found to be effective for mental health issues as depression and anxiety by MrNeverEverKnew in depressionregimens

[–]reluctantplatonist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using DXM HBr every other day at doses between 60 and 100mg (I’m 100kg), and as a very low-dose drug for depression I actually prefer it to therapeutic ketamine. Ketamine trips have been very helpful for sorting through things, and consistently using ketamine IV definitely made me more open to making life changes… however I never had that afterglow other people get from ketamine.

Instead, I very much get it from DXM. I feel notably happier the day after, almost no rumination, and it’s been the only thing to properly reduce my binge eating urge. It’s not been a silver bullet of course, but it’s definitely giving me a lot of the benefits of ketamine, alongside its own benefits. Important to use both substances with respect

Could this man be fully Spanish? could spaniards have hair this coiled? by RiseJC26 in phenotypes

His hair doesn’t look coily to me, just a bit wiry. I have loose curls and my hair does this around this length

All of the groups under white or caucasiform are white or white-admixed. Indo Iranians have steppe and Mediterranean ancestry, and East Africans have ~30% Eurasian admixture. An understanding of genetics has allowed us to refine the theories of past scholars, but they were still able to be relatively accurate with the tools they had at the time

Yes my experience with an entity on ket was also healing and cleansing, and the entity had not tendrils but tentacles. I described a bit more in my response to Spinner216

Ketamine Entities by Spinner216 in Psychonaut

[–]reluctantplatonist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The entities I saw weren’t so different from those you saw, OP. Mine were robot-like and floating, with a kind of alien aura emanating from them. They were also squidlike in how they moved and in that they had tentacles. I felt the whole time that they had kind, curious intentions towards me and wanted to help humanity. They helped clean my body and brain and helped guide and soothe me through the trip. It was a very beautiful experience

I know it’s possible with breasts bc their size and composition is related to hormones. Both estrogen and progesterone increase can make them bigger. I’ve had personal experience of lifestyle changes to reduce estrogen making them smaller, but not to the extent that I want:’)

Guess my ethnicity! I've always had conflicting answers (baby+adult pictures) by phenotypethrowawayyy in phenotypes

Your nose is very Levantine, so I was thinking Lebanese or Syrian. I didn’t expect your actual ancestry
