@algekalipso my vocal control had a large step change recently, but it's unclear whether that's the ayahuasca, therapy, meditation, acupuncture, happiness, etc

A singing teacher I know has interfaced with 5-MeO-DMT in two ways. One of her students screamed so loud on 5-MeO-DMT that they hurt their vocal cords. And the other had a glowing experience and seems to sing much better afterwards - the experience "unlocked their range".
Do you know of anyone who has improved on a sport or a skill after 5-MeO-DMT?

@fuckpoasting you're describing every city designed w shops under residential buildings, hayes valley isn't special the rest of sf is just dead

@br1ttany Yeah but you train so you can eventually go outside to climb real mountains. Gym people just train for more gym
English
I don’t understand the motivation to physically battle yourself (gym people, marathon runners, etc) vs choosing to battle nature. Battling nature feels purposeful. Climbing, surfing, skiing, kiting, etc. You are conquering the elements. You are wrestling nature on behalf of humankind, harnessing it and bending it to your will. Battling yourself feels lame and masturbatory

New York City is incredibly, insanely overstimulating. does anyone have recs for places in Manhattan that will make me feel calm instead of evil and insane

A tiny apartment is psychologically suffocating. You should at least be able to relax in your own home instead of feeling trapped whenever you’re there.

a small apartment forces you to own only what you use and go outside to do everything else, which is why americans find it terrifying. outside is where other people are. we built the big house specifically to never need anyone

Can confirm the content of children's books has degraded along with the artwork, and it's painful to imagine adults reading them repeatedly. I've just about given up on buying contemporary books for my friends' kids

Call me old-fashioned but I think kids were a million times better off when they grew up reading books with these sorts of illustrations in them.

@tmkadamcz SFO is what happens when you let autistic people design public spaces

SFO airport is SO much nicer than Heathrow. Basically never any queues, no hostile commercial area where you're forced to walk through perfume-filled air. Quiet. Lots of space to sit.
What explains this? Just the US being richer? Is SFO unusually nice for US?

@lumpy__lump those are no longer your jeans they belong to the next wary traveler who crosses their path
English
if you accidentally shrink your jeans (bc you dried them on high, bc you'd procrastinated laundry until the morning of your flight), the solution to undoing that is to wear them while damp
