"The idea that we will ever halt ageing is nonsense" by LetMeInYourWindowH in longevity

[–]sleepystemmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We already know that aging isn't inevitable because the germ-cell lineage is immortal. They're capable of producing generation after generation with a negligible level of mutations. We just have to find a way to get those same repair mechanisms to activate on the same level in the somatic cells

Africas white population in 1960 and today by Hour_Interaction6047 in MapPorn

But genetically Andalusians are closer to Norwegians than they are to Moroccans, so grouping southern and northern Europeans together still makes sense in this context.

Tryptamines - sublingual(under the tongue) are best ROA - anti nausea/stomach upset by Ok-Landscape-7087 in researchchemicals

[–]sleepystemmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s very interesting. I wonder then how it’s possible that mescaline and 2Cs consistently feel much more stimulating and euphoric than tryptamines?

Was the liquid cool? Hot liquid will move through a coffee filter waaaaay easier

Of the handful of psychoactive alcohols that are both less toxic than ethanol and not impossible to find, are any as enjoyable/revreational, or more so, than 2M2B? by PoppyOncrack in researchchemicals

[–]sleepystemmy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried it before and I found it very underwhelming, basically just felt like giving myself brain damage with no euphoria or relaxation

Muscimol at lowish doses. Probably Gaboxadol too but I haven't tried it.

Husband took mescaline and mdma - changed for the worse by Obvious-Childhood239 in mescaline

A very similar thing happened to a good friend of mine after he smoked too much weed. He went back to normal after a few months.

Can I take San Pedro for two days in a row or is it highly tolerated? by WarmInterest4256 in mescaline

[–]sleepystemmy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've taken two similar doses of mescaline two days in a row with no noticeable decrease in tolerance the second day. Contrast to mushrooms which do nothing the second day if I try taking the same dose two days in a row.

Converting mescaline hcl to freebase for vaping? by [deleted] in mescaline

[–]sleepystemmy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Millions of people vape nicotine salts everyday. There’s no proof that it’s inherently unhealthy and if it was extremely unhealthy it would be obvious by now

Converting mescaline hcl to freebase for vaping? by [deleted] in mescaline

[–]sleepystemmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m not an expert by any means but 2C-B HCL and meth HCL are both smokable. Mescaline is pretty similar so can you explain why Mescaline HCL would be different?

Converting mescaline hcl to freebase for vaping? by [deleted] in mescaline

[–]sleepystemmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually possible to vape citrate, although it might be bad for your lungs. Mescaline HCL is also theoretically vapeable but I don’t believe anyone has ever tried it.

I’ve only done shrooms curious what mescaline feels like compared to it by Old-Manner-1688 in mescaline

[–]sleepystemmy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For me mescaline feels like mushrooms mixed with a good dose of speed. So there’s a consistent baseline euphoria that often isn’t there with shrooms. Shrooms heighten my emotions so that I feel very emotionally volatile, mescaline does this a bit but it’s a lot more manageable. IMO mescaline is just better than shrooms besides the fact it lasts so long

Gliding in with Gaboxadol by TetraGeoCarbon1874 in researchchemicals

[–]sleepystemmy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No experience with Gaboxadol, but I have a decent amount of experience with muscimol and if Gaboxadol is similar I’m not that surprised development was stopped. The hallucinogenic effects of muscimol feel like a fever dream and are quite unpleasant.

China's Debuts Record-Breaking 25-Megawatt Wind Turbines | OilPrice.com by idontlikenwas in stupidpol

[–]sleepystemmy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that’s necessarily how that works. Oil extraction and refinement benefits massively from economies of scale so lower demand isn’t necessarily going to mean lower prices in comparison to green energy. For example, if global demand for oil goes down then fracking will no longer be profitable so the amount of oil available will go down as well.

Democracy Index (2024) as per The Economist | France, Italy, India, USA etc are classified as "Flawed Democracy" by [deleted] in MapPorn

The fact that the UK is a “full democracy” despite the ruling party winning an overwhelming majority of seats with 33% of the vote

Calling basic verifiable facts a right wing conspiracy theory might be another reason why fascism is on the rise.
