Thats good question, I might have to go antiquing to find something to try it out with… although i suppose I’d have to pay to activate the line so maybe not.
And yeah I ruled out power right away since theres no poka-yoke feature to prevent mixing up hot, neutral, and ground, but “four prong outlet” and reverse image searching weren’t getting me there.
Thank you, I’ve never seen older than the 6P4C, I love learning little tid bits of history like this!
No pool now but Im doing some digging and found some abandoned conduit and tons of what I think are old diy decorations so I’d say the evidence is strong there probably was.
I know you mean ten thousand years… but coming from the US when I first read that I interpreted it as you being VERY specific about ten years from now and not a thousanth of a year later…
That being said, probably still chasing share holder value as everything burns (hotter) around us.
But one more thousanth of a year could change that!
Its definitely gotten better over the years, especially since ive dropped a lot of friends that reacted like that. I don’t usually get much more than a raised eyebrow anymore over a few more common ingredients.
If the texture/flavor triggers my gag reflex and I can’t physically swallow, the question is not “why am I limiting myself?” but rather, “why would I attempt to abuse myself?”
Trying new food can be risky, its not cheap and if you cant eat it you just wasted your money and the food. Food also takes time to prepare which you may not have the time to make or order something else which then can snowball into larger issues. Not to mention the social pressure/judgment to finish a meal you wish you could force down your throat and getting accused of being dramatic and wasteful.
I like to try new foods here and there but I need to be able to get a small portion to avoid waste and know theres a back up I can eat to avoid skipping a meal altogether. It also needs to be with a crowd that I feel safe enough with not to get shat on if I cant eat it.
That being said I can only imagine making a blanket statement that I’d never try something if I already know it’s very similar to something else that I can’t eat.
My smart watch recently died and I found myself quickly glancing at my bare wrist then surveying my surroundings for a clock only to check my phone as a last resort. Before my smart watch, my phone was my default but I’d still see clocks, read them… and then check my phone immediately after.
Things like flyers, posters, communication boards etc, have completely blended into the scenery for me for as long as I can remember. Unless the active task is waiting with little to no distractions or entertainment I won’t notice them.
Dogfish head 90 minute aged for 3 years in a Sam Adams utopia barrel from 2019.
Not the most expensive thing I’ve drank but it was the most expensive beer I paid for.
I had gotten a 1 gal refillable mini keg filled from a local distributor and went back the next week for another so I’d say it was worth it.
DMT for me, the room started twisting and recursively repeating itself. I felt myself being pulled up through the ceiling and resisted at first but got bad vibes and let myself take off. Clocked out and went to DMT space, thought I was my roommate for a minute, had an ego death, and saw shapes and colors that dont really exist in reality. Came to and all the walls (wood paneling from the 70s) had a sort of shimmery liquid gloss layer on the surface that was ebbing, flowing, and peacocking real hard. Other objects were like that too but the knots in the wood really leant themselves to it.
I had tried varies quantities and types of psychedelics prior and often got high but rarely had any visuals. The few visuals I did have were just basic optical illusion type trippy and pretty disappointing.
My experience with DMT seemed to unlock something in my brain though because the next few times I tried shrooms and acid after that I tripped absolute balls and it felt like I had also done DMT in addition to them.
