lol, all this ski talk is making me want to go skiing so bad.
The record snowfall was nagging at me, then the olympics fucked me over. By osmosis I think I fucked over those in here. :D
What sucks is that after all this cold, there's going to be a thaw this coming week, above zero for at least 3 days, peaking around 5C. When that re-freezes it's going to be ice. I'm not able to go before the thaw comes.
Laika- how do you not get MDx hang overs? They are so bad, especially if you have shit to do the next day.
I used to get savage MDMA hangovers, but it seems with age and experience, my rolls are very warm and uplifting, but not stimulating balls to the walls. With that lack of intensity the comedown is drastically reduced.
ITT- I'm jealous of the people that have money to ski or snowboard. I guess I don't have much social mobility.
I'll admit, I am priviledged to have parents who had the means and desire to put me on skis when I was a kid, but I have friends who never skied when they were kids, live paycheck to paycheck, and still managed to try it out and go a few times a year.
It's not expensive unless you go on trips to far away resorts at big mountains. Those big mountains are fantastic, but far beyond my means at the moment. The closest hill to me is $27 a day, the bigger, further one is $22 on Tuesdays, $30 on weekends. It's really not that expensive; I spend more on gas than I do on lift passes.
i think MDxx hangovers also have a lot to do with your mindset during your roll.
i.e. if you have the right state of mind while rolling then your comedown will not suck as much
Totally, bad rolls (had them with real MDMA; like psychedelics there is such a thing) are the worst hangovers. The next worst is the super stimulated, bursting with ecstatic joy. The experience is amazing, but one pays for it afterwards. The chilled out, mellow, reflective, happy rolls have minimal hangover.
Secondly I make sure I don't have anything to do the next day lol.
Ya, even with the minimal hangover roll I wouldn't want to have to work the next day. I think just having in your mind that you have to work the next day would be a very undesirable set to have.
About MDA; I've wanted to try it since I got into MDMA, but it's simply unavailable where I am. The only reason there's any MDMA market is because there's people who take it frequently to "get fucked up". I think MDA would be something I want to try, but it'd be just a trial thing. The more long term combo I would use is MDMA/MDA. I've read so many glowing reports from that combo. With MDMA, I do desire a tad more 'je ne sais quoi'. I sometimes add 2C-B, but it's a bit less 'empathogenic' than I'd like it to be.
The other experiences that have more of a hangover are when I'm out camping. I think the physical activity, waking up the next day with sun blazing, and the fact that there's always work to do while camping has something to do with it. Camping rolls are where I add 2C-B to it, I think if I had MDA I'd use that as the adjunct instead. I'm also thinking for the future I might obtain something more in like with what I seek by using less 2C-B; instead of 15mg, use maybe 5-8mg.
4x per year its optimal I think, doing it too. Shulgins said that 4 times is a maximum per year if you don't want to lose the magic in the long run
When I was using it relatively often this was my frequency, it seemed to work out.
Imagine if you could be on MDMA 24/7, would you get bored of it ever?
Oh man. On my very first experience I was so distraught when I began to comedown. I was like "NO, NO! it's not fair! you can't show me that and return me to normality!" For the longest time I wanted to live my life in an MDMA state. It's just not sustainable in the slightest and nothing would ever get done. Simply put; life wouldn't work very well.
I think if there is ONE drug everyone should experience in their life, it should be MDMA! Even if only for once.
I've felt this from the first peak I had. I think the world would be an immeasurably better place to live with much happier people if the whole collective experienced it, at least once.
