Attempted to quit twice - failed twice. For me the quitting symptoms come in four phases: 1) very slight uncomfortableness (nothing severe) [~3 days] 2) more vivdness, alertness, euphoria, calmness [1 to 2 weeks] 3) weird chest / heart

I haven't bought from Amazon in about three years. And I'm ordering online quite a lot. Only this month: a bike (boc24.de), bike equipment (nanobike.de), several books (booklooker.de, medimops.de, thalia.de, hugendubel.de), a Whis

Technically you're right. But food is for many people more than the taste. It's a form of escapism, a little show that distracts you from the chore. For that to work you need this fantasy of the master chef and authenticity that a

I very much enjoy making pizza (or pasta) in the evening after work. It's a great way to relax, watch something on the side and provides some kind of Italian style escapism where you enter semi-consciously a fantasy world of Mediterran

I would second this. It might be, though, because it is much easier to overdose 4-Aco-DMT than shrooms. Even most milligram scales don't reliably differentiate between 30 and 50 mg but the trip on the latter would be immensely more int

You're conflating Mushrooms with (Mu)Shrooms it seems to me. Shrooms are not primarily about the taste. And you can very well make Shrooms storable for up to several years.

There are various ways to ingest mushrooms. Having said that - let me assure you, the problem is not just from the fibers it's very well the substance itself. One reason is the activation of serotonin receptors of which there are huge

(Mu)Shrooms contain more more psychoactive substances and prodrugs to such than psilocybin. There is a reason why psychonauts debate differences between trips induced by Shrooms vs 4-Aco-DMT. But of course it would make sense to simplify th

60% to 70% refers to an R0 of about 3. But the R0 is more likely to be around 6. That means you need 5/6th of a population to be immune - that's about 80% to 90%. UPDATE: "Results show that the doubling time early in the epid
