Uranium 🟩

The toys that either have balls that get launched into the air, or ones that are small balls trapped in a loop for them to bat back and forth may be the kind of thing you’re looking for, especially if you can ones that allow for small treats or catnip to be placed inside the balls

30mg daily with an optional booster of 5mg instant release has been the sweet spot for me.

Over the span of like 6 years I started on 30mg, went down to 20mg for a while until a bit of a tolerance kicked in then back up to 30mg, eventually got the 5mg booster which I normally only take a 1/4 of a pill for the actual boost I need without effecting my sleep too much, but even then if I take the booster for a week I’ll certainly start to feel drained, so it’s an option not a requirement for me.

I imagine you’re probably going to be better off feeling a little bit of the randomness associated with you being on the lower dose. The medicine is supposed to help you function a bit more like a regular person, not a robot. Humans have got randomness/noise in their thoughts, we aren’t supposed to be robots.

I’ve had what you’re experiencing but on methylphenidate; it doesn’t really go away until you lower the dose or stop.

Other things that can impact the robot feeling is excessive caffeine before bed, and nicotine usage.

I think if you’re asking this question; you already know that you want to go back down and just need some confirmation that it’s a good idea 👍

Tbh if they didn’t learn from last time (vita) it deserves to fail if they’re not including a usable microSD card slot. We’re at a point where the cat is out of the bag even for the average consumer, when games can be 100GB+, noone will buy it if they screw about with being an overpriced console + overpriced games. The console needs to be affordable, with affordable memory and then they’ll make their profit from the games.

My mum’s a child psychotherapist, from her perspective medication aught not to be the first thing people jump at, but it very much has it’s place; an example being children with ADHD who literally cannot sit down to the point of them getting distressed, actually being able to sit down and engage with therapy after starting medication. Similar things with anxiety and depression, if anxiety holds you back from opening up and personal thoughts and feelings then medication can enable that for therapeutic work to begin.

The bigger issue she has is when people (often parents) only want the medication but don’t want to try and engage with the therapy.

Just something to think about

Huh, same here, that’s odd

Are you meaning because people are excited about “fusion” being a possible future energy source, whereas when they here “nuclear” their minds immediately go to weapons and fission accidents and pollution?

My friend has so far fried 4 or 5 steamdecks, ROG Ally and two power banks before he took my advice to buy a type c cable tester and to stop using any charger that didn’t come with the device until he could test them.

Turned out it was a damaged cable, I think it was a CC line was no longer working.

I’ve had a couple of cheaper Chinese type c and usb A multi port chargers fail; I manage to fry like 3 sex toys before I realised the type A ports were outputting 12v, and at some point something went wrong and the type c fried my phone (which I guess is on me for continuing to use the charger after the issue with the type A ports)

They don’t necessarily require a starter explosive, certain types do of course. It’s more about overcoming the initial energy required, for example the arc from an electric arc lighter could probably overcome that requirement in a lot of scenarios.

I believe Australia has mandatory voting and achieves a ~95% participation of registered voters basically every election, though they do enforce it with either a day in court or a fine.

I do wonder if you fined people, or wasted a day of theirs with court, whether it would have an impact in Greece after a couple of elections?

They’re explicitly not sending out review codes until launch suggesting that it’s likely a bad game, but also means they’re likely just going to try and make their money with unrefundable day 1 sales on Playstation/Xbox store

To freak us out when we’re a little bit too high…

I find it interesting how it appeared clear in 2016 US election that Reddit for example was being a target of Russian interference, (alongside other places like Facebook and Britain during Brexit), even with Russia in a weakened state China appears to have seen what was being done as valuable and taken up the task

The playbook always seems to be to stoke wedge issues, including funding groups on both sides of the political isle; funding the NRA and BLM seems to be two of the most common examples. The reality being that the amount of disruption and destabilisation that is achieved, it must be that these governments must see it as good value for their money.

Sorry for your loss, she looks a very determined individual in the first picture

I mean you can vary it pretty significantly depending on the reactor type, but even if you couldn’t you can still put the energy to work in alternative ways, such as pumping water up into reservoirs/damns to generate energy at other points, or using the excess energy to split water. There are many ways to use excess energy.

Did you read the description of the book the guy linked?

This is an objective biographical study of Crowley written by someone who lived and worked intimately with him. Dr. Regardie observed “The Great Beast” at close quarters while serving as his personal secretary. The Eye in the Triangle was written many years later, after long contemplation. Regardie combines the psychological insight afforded by his professional training as a Reichian analyst with his grasp of Crowley’s magical personality.

It’s likely that the passage wasn’t written by Crowley himself, so a source like the one linked may be useful.

Also Libgen if you’d rather download the book and ctrl+f the passage you’re looking for

I kind of agree with other person who said it’s basically just antidepressants… though I’ve shyed away from the one that made me deeply content (yet somewhat dysfunctional) in exchange for one that leaves me more functional in exchange for a bit more (healthy) strife.

I’d be quite curious of a world where everyone is on universally functioning antidepressants.

Is this society a functioning dystopia or a dysfunctional utopia?

Also OP have you ever played the video game ‘We Happy Few’, a key feature of the world is that everyone takes a mild psychedelic called Joy to stop them from remembering the past.

Another story that I seem to recall using a similar plot point is Brave New World and their drug Soma (IIRC)

Seeing that you mentioned MS365 imma just have my mini vent here, my mum is over 60 and her work has just started using MS365, so far run into a bunch of minor frustrations, but two big ones that she wasn’t able to figure out herself, and damn near stumped me:

First was trying to create an email group, so it’s easier for her to mass email her different classes, go to create the group, realise there’s a bunch of other junk like chats and shared files as part of the group thing which isn’t needed (and can’t be used by non ms emails anyway, over half of them) but whatever, get most of the way through it then realise that two people aren’t included in any group… ok that’s odd, just says they can’t be added to the group, turns out that they’ve likely had some permission set regarding not being able to be added to groups.

45 minutes in at this point and they cannot be added at all, decide to go back and manage to find the option to create a bog standard email group (list?) hidden away under a drop-down menu, this is what I wanted to and thought I was making in the first place, then realise I cannot import or move over the already existing groups to the simpler email lists, so have to start again…

Finally get all of that done and my mum starts to send her zoom links out except nothing is hyperlinking automatically, try to search links, hyper links, linking, etc via the help and nothing of relevance comes up, turns out outlook Web doesn’t support that, only the desktop app does but nothing mentions that. Manage to track down some random forum post that states that automatic linking only works if the email is set to plaintext format, not html…

Absolutely ridiculous

Believe me, I’m quite aware they’re very different chemicals, just was pointing out one aspect for the reasoning regarding the reduction in anxiety might be too do with CO2. I would attribute the reduction of inhaling carbon monoxide has possibly helped reduce the amount of lightheadedness I used to get when smoking

Another +1 for magnesium glycidate before bed, and another suggestion for you to speak with your Dr about is propanol; it’s a blood pressure medication used to treat anxiety, it’s often used in combination with ADHD meds. I personally didn’t like it, but it can be very effective for some people.

You’re spot on about everything you’ve said, the only bit I’d like to say is that my reasoning for the reduced anxiety is the reduced CO2 inhalation, as increased CO2 levels will generally increase anxiety.

Also my goodness I am so much more outgoing now that I vape weed as opposed to smoke; when smoking it back in the day I wanted to be atleast 100meters from people (or better yet in some woods) due to concerns about the smell etc, nowadays I will confidently walk down the street vaping, or go to social events not too worried about it, ironically my friends who still smoke are so much more anxious about going out.

I’ve only ever had someone comment on the smell when we were both in the same room.

(Also unrelated but seriously fuck my countries culture of smoking weed with tobacco)
