Awesome post, awesome ideas! Immediately I was attracted to the combination of the rosemary with lemon balm. Any of the other additions sound very interesting also! Intrigued by the chocolate. Maca powder instead of or partially replacing cocoa powder might add some general dietary health benefits? Happy to be a guinea pig lol.

Oh man that book sounds incredible! Super interested in any section on effects on nerves and musculature, particularly from beta-carbolines and nn. Those subjects for both myself and a friend with highly-functioning Spina Bifida. However I'm just too flat out with moving and court case to put it to good use I already have way too many interesting books I haven't been able to give respectable time to.

Oh that's a shame I just noticed this thread and could've actually picked it up and brought it as far as coffs harbour for you since 7 hills is near me...

^^^ I must say not a lot of that surprises me a great deal, particularly the campaign idea and the ties with the Saudis. Of course I'm totally assuming there's a HELLUVA lot more incriminating material amongst the leaks. People should especially be aware of the admission of TWO policies (again though in politics that's hardly surprising either).

What's the latest Wikileaks thing? I heard something about Assange wants Trump to get in because of his Russian backing??

True, but the thing that still jags with me is how Trump can continue to be so... Offensive. I just cannot fathom the dumb things (not to say there's not some intelligent stuff thrown in there) he says is anything other than contrived and deliberate. What's he/they playing at?? Very interesting the links with Putin. Hillary can suck a fuck, too. I just don't believe anything that either of them say. It's all a game; we're the pawns. Hence my hippy-dippy call on changing our individual reactions and choosing to not play their game.

I actually don't know why people are so surprised at Trump's recording. I wondered to my partner months ago if the Republicans put Trump out in front to do the dirty work against Hillary (which is mightily valid) and then just before the election they replace him with someone else "cleaner" for the final stretch. Not a silly move I think. Either way I still think it's a total farce; it was and always will be a matter of the USA being REALLY run by the faceless oligs. FWIW the way Hillary uses the Vagina Vote - albeit in an incredibly sneaky, subtle way - is wretched. Nobody would ever accuse her of being stupid. Trump comes off as ridiculously stupid and oafish, but I find it hard to believe such a man could end up running multi billion-dollar companies with nothing more than nepotism, good luck, and good connections. He's smart, so I have to wonder why he continues to play it so dumb.

Lol yeah was too lazy to write why I thought so... Still can't be bothered. ISIS is just too convenient.

Also... Do fat people not get tattoos?? Trying to look for images online of tattoos to aesthetically slim my fat head (so under neck delicate tatt) and upper arms (FYI commenting to a chick in a wheelchair that her arms are huge even if it is meant as a compliment, may not be taken as such...) No pics damnit

Pump up da CHOONS brah

Also, what's the deal with D lessons appealing to our Egos? "YOU must be the one to ..." "We need YOU to ... " "Nevermind [the others] we want you to do ... for us" "YOU are the chosen one, the one who will deliver the message." Worse than forgetting my pen, I am too LAZY to write the message, let alone share it with others! Is it a neurochemical response to specific parts of the brain targeted? Is it the point of portal between Self and Non-Self (They)? Is it latent personal response to D for certain individuals - that is, is this egotistical response only provoked from those with a strong sense of self as I (and a few others who I know have had similar egocentric experiences) do? Many many hours of asking good ol' Google via many websites, blogs etc, and written page, still no good enough answer to satisfy these thoughts.

Both puppets for TPTB. Appealing to opposite sectors of society to make for a good show. Neither matter. Reactions to whatever they blah blah blah out is what matters; hate/fear fuels the Great America Machine more efficiently than any oil reserve or monetary worth. ISIS was completely fabricated to provide the hate/fear needed. Only an individual has the power to change their reaction from now hate/fear to love/trust. Love/trust is what will save the human specie and allow our evolution to move to next phase; i.e. Becoming true benefactor and trustee to planet Earth.

Audiobooks of storied fiction as opposed to philosophical musings (just finished Stephen King's The Dark Tower) is great for curbing road rage. I've been tut-tutted for avoiding breakthroughs, so the next time a lesson must be faced. Why are there only THREE dmt erowid reports in the "health" section?? Surely others have felt the vibration buzz out extreme muscle tension?

As circumstance would have it, in a few weeks I'll be living in my greatgrandmother's old house! Next door to my grandmother's (both passed) where an auntie and uncle and their kids live (hopefully they'll respect my privacy or good lord there's going to be some awkward situations...). I'll also be there for a year now, as six months just isn't enough time to get some work/life experience really going. It's a huge block of land and a huge house in town which is going to need some minor renos (much of it in original condition). So many of my earliest memories made in these two homes and backyards; brushing my mum's mum's mum's fine silver hair while singing What A Friend We Had In Jesus, being shown how to work the old pianola, eating then promptly puking molasses for the first time. My Self has been disconnected, fractured, thin, and I've not felt at ease for too long; in this place I will heal. In this place I will restore what was lost of me. In this place I will grow stronger, of this I have no doubt. And as incredible bonus I'll have plenty of space so I'll be bringing a few more plants than I originally thought I could - Werd to tha Dood! All the weird shit that happens in the world, and I'm still amazed at how mysteriously the Universe works. The Path moved surely under my feet even as I felt numb and unmoved; my Journey takes a new direction - back along the path of the Beam (for the Ka-Tet who ken my palaver) Bring on the SAB Bee Bee Queues!

My Endler's Livebearers (the pretty little rainbow wild type of guppy), guppies, and shrimps (prawns :D) New hobby to keep me sane. We're breeding the red cherry shrimps, and hoping to breed the bigger ones with white and red (Crystal Red) which can earn you a few bucks if you get a good setup. We've even found a black mutated shrimp from the red cherries as a throwback. The Endler's are AWE"SOME. I'll never get another regular guppy ever again I think; these guys are hardy, curious, voracious little buggers who are endlessly doing a little shimmy to show off their colours.

Is this the Solar System hurtling through space?

Holy shit no way, I'm moving to Coffs in a few weeks, still waiting to hear if my lease application was accepted for a place I really like. My partner has to stay down here for work which blows but it'll only be for six months. I have to come back to Syd to continue study hopefully once the legal case has finished. I'll be studying Counseling online and will have to get a job (blurgh!!!! Lol) but being surrounded by family in the fresh non-toxic air and non-hectic vibes. I so wanted a place with land but they weren't appropriate or affordable.

Would a piece of pvc tubing with the fence-wire through the bore, would that stop snakes crawling over the top of the fence? Does that make sense? Lol I felt like doodling ... There should be more angle on the polycarb (darkest tint) hinged top roost. Use proper small 10mm chicken wire to stop the snakes. Even turn the bottom of the wire outwards to stop digging dogs. For the roost keep good ventilation with chicken wire front holes and dark tint Perspex or just more polycarb. I can't wait til we can get our chicken pen running, so many ideas and integrating the rabbits too :D

Fwiw over the last week or so I've been listening to Alan Watts on audiobooks. His emphasis on the only "thing" that is truly "real" is the here and now. Life as a series of moments. Nothing more or less; memories mere tracers of energies of past moments, which we can see/remember "backwards." Basically if the current moment is the only one which truly exists (outside Wholeness that is), then the true freedom of no-past-no-future is felt. I've put my own spin on that (and probably shouldn't have), but it CALMED my mind in a way that I haven't felt in ages. Distraction (from unnecessary use) always works for me when I'm not thinking outside the moment. Apparently pain (physical/mental/emotional/spiritual) doesn't exist in the Current Moment because there is nothing else to compare it to in the same infinitely-fleeting Current Moment. The next Current Moment is only a moment away (but that isn't soon enough!) but is it really worth wasting that moment worrying about how crap the Next Moment MIGHT be when it could just as easily be a good one? Youre not worried about social norms, you're not satisfied by your relationships or studies or drug usage; why do you do them? What makes you go on? I'm too damn curious to see where the Next Moment takes me, and that's enough. For me.

Thanks Change! The abstract at the very least is something I can bring to the table as food for thought :D When I find or someone can access it, printing out certain parts would be helpful to have on hand to give that too. I didn't get a chance to bring it up with the male psych earlier but hopefully I get another chance.

Hi Alchemica, I knew I came across this idea recently, and briefly asked one of the psychiatrists here (detox/rehab facility) about their thoughts on the ketamine trials. But she shot it down (as I thought she might - I can't stand this psyche) and said there's extremely little data blah blah blah. But didn't even give it/or me, the time of day on it. Didn't help that when I asked if it works, one of the young blokes pipes up "yeah brah K works good hey!" *facepalm* So I wanted to print out a copy of something so I could ask one of the more responsive psyches his thoughts. But I the link you posted wont' let me access that page. Do you have a link for somewhere I could download and print off so that I had something concrete to present. With the understanding obviously that these are early days of course. Every time I'm here I just want to get the thoughts out there that there aren't just 2 modes of recovery: A/NA + abstinence OR A/NA + maintenance.

I don't want to derail by any means please (I just thought since both are in photos here), but can anyone give a quick explanation the visual difference between subaeruginosa and cyanescens? Edit: VVVV Thanks, Antonsyd! My fungi book's at home and there's so many websites I figured I'd ask the experts here for reliable knowledge or at least reliable references...

Troglodyte

Try 11pm on a Monday night in rehab :D Those sub-nubs, I have an urge to nibble the nipples. Taste the rainbow. I keep wanting to save so many photos but it just takes too long, so shall be content with browsing YouShroom instead.

Get bigass mirrors that are going to shine it right into their house or television or bedroom! Our bedroom is above the garage on a street corner and right next to about six! Street lamps that shine right into our bedroom. Pain in the ass I tell ya.
