Ok, so FYI, this is where the current state of the art is at for replicating the visuals of the DMT breakthrough experience. I'm still experimenting, but if anybody has a trip report they want converted into an animation like this, share it below! <3

Working with @noonautics / @alieninsect to build an automated system that converts any written DMT experience report into a fully fledged animated replication at the click of a button. It's working better than I expected. 🫠

Finally getting consistent characters and art styles working in the DMT break-through replication app, this was generated by pasting in a trip report and clicking a button 🙃

If someone is putting on body fat, the multitudinous studies show that that fat came from their diet. Extremely difficult to get fat if dietary fat is kept very low, even if carbs are very high since DNL is so inefficient. But yeah you're right: Most people are fat because their diet is rich in both carbs and fat and the excess fat is stored highly efficiently as body fat.

@alieninsect @ClarkeMicah @grok Understandable but feels misleading, as we’re looking at a population that’s eating fat with carbs. I’ve been keto for ten years and lost a ton of body fat. I only ever regain body fat when I eat carbs, alone or with fat when I cheat.

If interested in the curious belief that fat, rather than sugar, makes you fat, read the late John Yudkin's book 'Pure, White and Deadly', and then discover what happened to him and the book.

It's not only entirely correct but it's not even disputed. Well-established by isotope tracer studies. Any other model will tell you the same thing: Under typical physiological conditions in humans: ~80–95%+ of adipose triglyceride fatty acids come directly from dietary fat (exogenous fatty acids) ~0–10% (often closer to a few percent) come from de novo lipogenesis (DNL) from carbohydrates This is not a fixed number—it shifts with diet and energy balance—but across most controlled human studies, DNL is a minor contributor to stored body fat unless carbohydrate intake is extremely excessive.

@alieninsect @grok @ClarkeMicah Andrew he doesnt live in Japan. Anyone who had chance to eat daily Nihonno tabemono will agree how delicious it is. However still remember during my first 6month in Japan I gain 6kg of out nowhere, because Japanese rice TASTES so good, I ate it in big quantity. I never regret it

In typical diets and energy balance, ~80-95%+ of stored adipose fat comes directly from dietary fat. De novo lipogenesis from carbs usually contributes <10-20% (often far less, ~1-5g/day), rising only modestly with heavy carb overfeeding. It varies by individual, surplus calories, and carb load—most excess carbs get oxidized first.

@KayBorzsony I appreciate and understand what you're saying and your obvious frustration, but it's wasted on me: I'm neither a clinician nor a therapist offering psychedelic therapy. I'm not even an academic anymore.

@alieninsect 10-It offends my deepest sensibilities to watch helplessly from the sidelines, as these sacraments and, IMHO, eucharists-for-some people are just treated like yet another "new" treatment: MONETIZE, MONETIZE, MONETIZE. BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. EVERYTHING ELSE is an afterthought...

Over the last few months I have been quietly and busily working away with, in my opinion, one of the most original and important thinkers of the last century — someone whose work I have admired for many years… Hopefully in the next week or so we’ll be able to share a preprint of our very first collaborative paper… DMT, entities, consciousness… 👽 🧮🧠🧚🏻‍♀️🖥️🈷️

The brain *building* alien worlds and *discovering* alien worlds are not mutually exclusive. In fact, my claim that the brain must build the alien worlds you visit under DMT is actually an argument for their reality. The brain must build all worlds you perceive, including the normal waking world *and* DMT worlds. But only its ability to build the former is easy to explain. And yet it somehow knows how to build the latter too.

I love @alieninsect and support him. I respectfully disagree that the brain is building alien worlds. I have spent a lot of time in those worlds and learn scientifically important facts that I have converted into patents. This makes it clear to me that the mind is *discovering* alien worlds in alien dimensions far beyond our ability to explain in words of any kind. Here are some of my discoveries: - everyone is telepathic - telepathy is the universal language - other communication systems: morphing geometry, light patterns, body posture, scent, gravitational ripples, and quantum-style information packets. - Researchers report multiple users describe telepathy paired with these other channels as the universal language, with human words feeling like crude overlays. - Intelligence saturates the space—entities, environments, even the “wallpaper” of reality itself recognize you, interact intentionally, and operate like technicians or archivists. - intelligence is all around us - All is One (universal messaging in these realms) - written language was given to us repeatedly, after each major Earth cataclysm - All is spirit; there is no divide between Material and Spirit; the invisible and the visible exist only by the narrow spectrum of light human eyes can receive and process; cats can see a broader spectrum as can other animals

"When you take DMT, your brain begins building alien worlds." "Your brain suddenly starts speaking a language it never learned to speak." "It's like the cortex has snapped into an entirely different world-model-constructing state." These intelligences — I don't think they are actual elf-like beings. I think you're dealing with something so far beyond the human that we have no words for it." A topic I've wanted to cover for a very long time with incredible @alieninsect. Live now ⬇️

@derinsular @alieninsect Anything is possible, but that doesn’t answer any questions… for instance, in tha case I’m simply left wondering why my evolutionary memory has records of interdimensional brain surgery 🤔😂🤷‍♂️
