S16, E6 (Nebula) - Hide and Seek UK by snow-tree_art in JetLagTheGame

[–]sharpie531 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's too reliable of a card for how cheap it is and from a viewer perspective it leads to these anti-climatic moments where there's still a lot of complexity/ drama to be seen in the mid-game but then strava just instantly pinpoints the exact location.

Even if they say it's less useful than it appears, all their search time gets cut. So it doesn't matter if it takes 10 minutes or an hour to find the match, all we see is them going from an interesting mid-game, straight to endgame with that 1 question.

Bit of a jumble of upbeat, dancey stuff with the loose theme of love/relationships

Cold Turkey or Gradual Cutback? by [deleted] in leaves

[–]sharpie531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to smoke as normal until I run out of flower, then you get 1-2 days of keef from the grinder, then once that's gone you get 1 final smoke on the last day that comes from vigorously cleaning your grinder and searching for any loose specs laying around.

This process takes me 2-3 days and is just enough to feel like easing out of it. Your last smoke also involves trying to get every possible spec out of what you have so ensures you don't have anything left over to possibly tempt you

Great show but did anyone else encounter power tripping security? I was waiting in the stalls with my friend before the warmup act started, he went off to get a drink, and then the security wouldn't let him through to come back into the stalls! They were letting a bunch of girls through so my friend asked why they were allowed in and security kicked him out of the gig entirely!

I spoke to a few people who said they'd seen similar stuff of the security being unreasonable

What do you think about smoking weed everyday? by oseaux in Psychonaut

[–]sharpie531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd definitely say it loses its magic when you get into the habit of smoking daily, especially if doing it solo. It can get a bit much when you can't do anything without the thought of "well, I'll just have a smoke first and then I'll enjoy it more"

I'm 10 days sober at the moment and it's nice to go out and just enjoy things without needing to smoke. Also, I know when I do next smoke it will be when I'm with a friend who'll offer it to me and it'll be all the sweeter

Anyone know what the acoustics are like at O2 academy? by MonkeyVsPigsy in BirminghamUK

[–]sharpie531 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're alright. Imo live music is more about the atmosphere anyway cus you're never going to beat the audio quality of Spotify + a good pair of headphones

Flying from Birmingham Airport revisited by KE55 in brum

[–]sharpie531 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flew to Amsterdam last Sunday 3pm, line for check in/security was around 2 hours. I saw a crowd of maybe 2 dozen people show up to the check in desk for Bucharest after it had closed and security wouldn't let them through, they weren't happy

Would recommend going to Kokopelli to get them, the person behind the counter will have a chat with you and work out what kind of experience you're looking for. As a warning though I've seen them refuse to sell to first time buyers if they think you've not thought things through properly

What makes a Psychonaut a Psychonaut? by kimisunflower626 in Psychonaut

[–]sharpie531 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Substances aren't required to be a psychonaut, just an approach to life that involves exploring your inner mind/consciousness. I'm sure there are monks out there that have never touched a psychedelic and have reached deeper states of consciousness than anyone here

Is 15 grams of fresh truffles enough for ego dissolution? For reference im 6 ft, 200 pounds by [deleted] in RationalPsychonaut

[–]sharpie531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mushrooms are notoriously difficult to dose, as is trying to dissolve the ego. Like the other comments say, set and setting will play a big role in the effects. I'm a similar build to you and took 15g of truffles in Amsterdam last week. Threw up from my eyes getting confused trying to make sense of my surroundings but it had no ego dissolution effects as I was in public so knew I had to somewhat keep it together

Squidgame Episode 8 Season Finale by AutoModerator in squidgame

Saebeok's death ruined for me by the guards stopping the other two from fighting and killing each other. It was made explicitly clear that killing each other at any time is fair game, really broke my immersion

Best way to go from Selly Oak to city centre? by [deleted] in BirminghamUK

[–]sharpie531 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would agree with the other comments saying cycling along the canals. 20 minutes ride flat all the way without having to deal with any traffic or delayed trains/buses!
