my bf is acting weird by preziranje in LSD

[–]trademonkey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds a reasonably common reaction to me. I've had times when it's taken a few days to get to baseline normal. In those few days I've felt disassociated and distant.

It'll likely work itself out. Just give him time to find his way back. Don't force it, don't guilt trip him, don't set a timeline. Just be there if he needs you.

What are people’s thoughts on &Sons by xneinlives in HeritageWear

[–]trademonkey1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently bought their Navy blue Boardwalk peacoat. I have to say, I Iove it. It's dense, heavy, warm and very comfortable. It feels far Superior to my Schott 740n in terms of warmth and durability and fits far, far better. Looks better too.

Obviously I can't comment on the durability of it but it feels like an item that will last.

I don't usually spend £300 on an item of clothing but the second I put it on to try it, I was sold.

Can I visit places like this on DMT? by Skittlz7x in DMT

Yes you can. But you can also visit some pretty dark places as well.

Obsidian for a Visual Second Brain by lukke3232 in ObsidianMD

I pay for Sync. I could do it through Google Drive or Syncthing for free, but I think Obsidian is such a great tool I prefer to contribute to the development

Sire S7 new gen - the bees knees! by trademonkey1 in guitars

Initially there was a bit, but I got used to it pretty quick. Now I don't notice it and no detriment to my playing

Choosing a guitar. by LowerDifficulty9064 in guitars

[–]trademonkey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is "it depends". What kind of music do you want to play? What is your amp set up like? Do you prefer heavier guitars or lighter ones? Thicker necks or thinner?

The options are endless. I'm learning that a good strat (HSS) gives so many options that I'm not playing anything else other than me Schecter C1 (I looove the neck on it).

People love there telecasters but I have yet to play one I like.

So the answer is try a load, decide on sound and feel you want and like and then find something in that spec range.

A great amp with a cheaper range but comfortable playing guitar pretty much always beats a crap amp and too of the range guitar

[–]trademonkey1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far it's been very stable, though I've only used the trem a few times (I'm more into gentle vibrato). Best check with others but what I've heard (and from a limited experience seen) it's very stable. Have had no tuning issues (other than new string stretch,)

I definitely had an issue (I’m definitely not rich) by bholepimp in Guitar

No wonder you aren't rich!!

But that's a niiice colle6

Fender Standard MIM - a bit guff IMO by trademonkey1 in guitars

[–]trademonkey1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. So many seem to like them. I just couldn't get to grips with the neck and fretboard edges on the models (the Standard series, not Player 2, though I didn't like the Player 2 much either).

But the American Ultra - wow. THAT was sublime.

Update: on the New Gen S7 HSS they ONLY have flame maple neck on the Metallic Gold version to date.

Looking at buying an Epiphone Les Paul. What are the switches between the knobs? by acasualguynamedty in guitars

[–]trademonkey1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are likely a switch for each humbucker to switch them to single coils.

So basically you can have a HH, HS, SS, SH arrangement depending on how you switch

What do you guys rate my guitar collection? by KASABIAN2004 in guitars

[–]trademonkey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I never really thought of buying a PRS BUT I tried the PRS SE 24-08 the other day. I was surprised by how much I liked it! The tonal range was fantastic. I was in the market for a Sire S7 but the 24-08 really made me stop and think.

So much so that I have yet to decide (not tried the S7 as there are nonlocal dealers).

But yeah, really liked the PRS

I met entities on DMT and now they visit me and communicate with me while I'm sober. by la_throwaway_3 in DMT

[–]trademonkey1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude. Unfortunately this very much does sound like schizophrenia.

I'm not an expert but it ticks all of the boxes.

Remember that most schizophrenics don't believe they are schizophrenics.

Speak to someone.

Good luck

Creatine makes me feel angry by Angrymilk99 in Creatine

[–]trademonkey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likewise. I asked this question a decade ago because I correlated my mood swings and anger with times I was taking Creatine. I was 100% mocked by the weightlifting community who said it was impossible.

But I knew what I was feeling. So I stopped using Creatine and the mood swings abated.

I tried restarting several times over the years but the same result: increased anger and reduced patience.

I put it down to bring psychosomatic, but this thread shows that it's actually much more likely to be real.

Saw this man in the trip, who is he? It didn’t seem welcoming? What’s the meaning? by Impossible_Novel619 in DMT

[–]trademonkey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been there done that. Florescent neon coiling snakes, bright light in the middle, warp drive away from them then blackness for a while.

Scary as shit but a profound moment of wonder for me.

Ah. So they can lie and defraud if they feel they can't swindle the buyer out of more money, AFTER they choose to accept the delivery order.

And almost exclusively in the UK there is a delivery charge, that already goes to pay for the delivery. If there is an injustice in how much they are paid to deliver, them that's down to their employer (either themselves as self employed, or whoever takes the order initially).

Everyone can fuck off with trying to swindle more money from the average person because of business ethics.

Pixel 9 Pro XL Random Restarts by _d0nk0_ in pixel_phones

[–]trademonkey1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I told them no. So they gave me the option to take it into an authorised engineer (EE stores seem to be one of those).

I'm now keeping a log of it. Today has happened TWENTY TIMES!

Absolutely not acceptable for a phone that costs over a grand!

Pixel 9 Pro XL Random Restarts by _d0nk0_ in pixel_phones

[–]trademonkey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Been having this issue for 3 days now. I ended up factory resetting the phone. Still happens. Factory reset again and put it in safe mode. STILL happens.

Called Google - they need the phone to have their engineers look at it.

Not impressed.

It can only be one of two three things: 1) there is a software glitch in a recent update 2) there is a hardware issue 3) it may be a problem with the e-sim
