International man of mystery. They've given me a number, and taken away my name. I don't often post, but when I do I noticed a typo 0.03 seconds after hitting send.

nostr:npub1tsgw6pncspg4d5u778hk63s3pls70evs4czfsmx0fzap9xwt203qtkhtk4 what are some fun things to do on the outskirts of riga?

There's some good restaurants & beach in Jurmala.

When I was a kid I would after sprinkling salt on it. Somewhere along the line I decided I didn't like them & stopped eating them altogether though.

This car is sending mixed messages. It's Bitcoin orange, but it's also a Fiat.

Then like an hour later I saw a different Bugatti with a "1" plate. What are the odds?

I'm in Paris & just passed a hotel where directly in front was a matte black Bugati with license "1" from KSA.

Browsing around Paris on Google Maps & thought I spotted a nostr:npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl!

Receiving all my household goods. Why do I have so much stupid crap?

I'm jealous of everyone heading to Riga. I lived there for 3 years & loved it.

Is "currency" called that because people predominantly care about the current value for MOE purposes rather than long term for SOV purposes?

I think Mendrik should be the collective form.

With Mutiny going away, what's the best way to migrate funds if you have both lighting & on-chain with 1 channel open?

I would guess maybe close the channel first & then do a single on-chain to send everything?

I can't believe it's already time to leave home for another country again.

Let's talk drugs! I've heard a lot of mixed takes on marijuana and psilocybin, and wanted to share my own recent experiences. ๐Ÿ˜„

I never touched any drugs, besides alcohol/caffeine/sugar, until my 40s. I prefer to not be impaired or dependent, which is why I quit alcohol and caffeine a few years ago. Now that my kids are living on their own, and I'm retired, I find myself wanting to experience more things in life.

So I decided to try THC & psilocybin.

I can see why people are split on weed. Productivity can go way up or down, depending on the person, the mood, etc. I find it to be fun, but definitely not something I want to partake in regularly. I get way too retarded! ๐Ÿ˜‚

I won't smoke or vape, so I stick with a tiny dose from a tincture. The high can last 6-8 hours in my system, which is a very long time for a small dose. Not something I want to deal with on the regular.

I'm very logical, almost to a fault. Psychedelics never sounded like a good idea, but I decided to try psilocybin recently. I was anxious about what would happen, but I put some music on, closed my eyes, and relaxed.๐ŸŽถ

With psilocybin, I feel like I'm tapping into a part of my brain that I rarely use. My logical thought process is still present, but my creative side takes control. I get deeply introspective. I start writing a lot.

I'm already a huge music lover, but my appreciation for it reached new heights. I experience seeing the sounds. I can fully appreciate the space between chaos and order where music lives. The more instruments the better, which is why I find orchestra music to be the absolute best with psilocybin.

It's an incredible experience that I walk away from knowing myself a little better. The writing is my favorite part, as I'm able to go back and reflect on my thoughts during the experience. To my surprise, it isn't a rambling mess! It's thoughtful, emotional, and honest. I'll even share with others who I directly write about. It's an extremely therapeutic process.

Again, I'm glad I never tried any of these mind altering substances until later in life. Being a fully developed human, and having a better understanding of myself, helps make these experiences stable and beneficial. In my youth, when my self control was worse, I could have ended up going down a dark path if I tried drugs. I'd likely be a very different person today.

I will always prefer to remain sober the overwhelming majority of the time, but I can see the pros & cons of altering your mind. Under the right circumstances, of course! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ‘

For me, weed have me the traditional euphoria, but also incredibly clarity of vision. I suddenly could see why I was unhappy with my life & what I needed to do to change it. Also, music appreciation like you mentioned. As if normally I hear music sort of compressed in mono & suddenly it was hi-fi & I could not only hear the separate instruments, but could hear the individual vibrations making up the notes. And, I also found it somewhat anti-addictive as I would do it once & then not want to for several months. I feel as if my life would be much better if I was able to partake of it once every few months.

I haven't tried psilocybin. I went so far as getting spores & growing some, but was too afraid to try (aside from micro-dosing where I never noticed anything.) I have a lot of anxiety about having a bad trip & going in feeling like that seems like a good way to guarantee a bad trip. I also don't have anyone IRL I can trust enough to sit with me & am afraid to try it alone.

That's great news! Having a store & being able to see & feel samples would make ordering something much more comfortable from a customer perspective.

I can tell you that I tried to get my French friend signed up, but it wouldn't allow him because he was hitting a cell tower in Switzerland. There's a LOT of people that live in France & work in Switzerland that could be caught out by this faulty geofencing.

Is that brown? I'm not too big on browns.

I'm also about to move to France & probably should wait to see the size of my ID before deciding on something. I think it's almost passport size so I might end up being better off just getting a passport holder.
