    Depression

    Following extensive research on the topic of, ahem, non-prescription psilocybin therapy, during my teens and twenties, I can confirm that when used responsibly, mushrooms are an incredible tool for sorting your head out. They aren't called psychedelic for no reason. Plucking a number out of my arse here, but I'd say 95% of people, and consequently the world around them, would benefit from a few guided shroom trips. The final 5%... not so much.

    Depression

    People keep saying about cold water... cold showers, sea swimming, Wim Hoff, whatever... and I'm absolutely certain that it could help. I'm just far too much of a big girl's blouse to get started on it.
  3. We were definitely fed a very western perspective at school, when our side of things was really just a sideshow. From a purely numbers point of view, the main event of the European theatre of WW2 was the Eastern front. It's impossible to comprehend the destruction. Obligatory shoutout to Dan Carlin's Ghosts of the Ostfront if anyone hasn't heard it yet. Edit: Carlin's podcast Ghosts of the Ostfront Series – Dan Carlin WWW.DANCARLIN.COM

    Depression

    Man, patronising doesn't even begin to cover it. What a joke. "Have you tried just... not thinking about it? " Helps with serotonin depletion. Definitely not a cure, but think of it as the first rung on a ladder that's just out of reach. The other rungs, as others are stating, are exercise, eating well,playing with the dogs etc... and, of course, tackling the root causes which, depending on the nature of your problems, might be absolutely bloody impossible. Oh well!

    Have you tried 100mg of sertraline?
  6. Noone here is arguing that people don't make money off of war. They are probably picking up on your shaky grasp of the history of the Nobel Prize, and your theory that Germany didn't start WW2 in an effort to procure more territory.
  7. Azincourt, obviously.
  8. Original beastie quoted above Albiger Stramentor Definitely not stramentor. Antennae not long enough for Albiger, I'd say. Buuut, those big curvy legs do look more wasplike than beelike. Really tricky to say!
  9. I still don't see it! Is it one of those magic eye images?
  10. Mate, I'm well versed in the plight of the Jewish people over the last few thousand years. I was questioning your non-sensical ramblings about WW2 not being about territory. Go take a sip of coffee and think things through. Edit: ahh, wait, I've got it. In your eyes, it only became a proper world war after Britain joined in. Makes sense now.
  11. ...what?
  12. It was quite literally about territory, living space, lebensraum; and Japan's empire building on the other side of the planet.
  13. Tiny percentage, but still a scary huge number, of people all across the West who think this too, who for some reason think the Russian propaganda intended for Russian consumption is good enough for them to believe too. Perplexing.
  14. I saw no ovipositor, so I started looking beewise instead. Blurry pics unfortunately, tricky to get any real detail. Handsome chap anyway.
  15. She must be a chunky one.
  16. Could it be some kind of blood bee? Sphecodes species... Edit for this handy chart
  17. Followed a few links through ebay from that device up there. Tell you what, it looks like a really easy to make a bit of money if you can tap into the right market.
  18. Nah, it's definitely climate change buddy boy. 👍 Oh, and the plastic thing. Oh, and the biodiversity collapse. Oh, and all those transsexuals making hetero relationships illegal. The next pandemic has to get in line after that crowd.
  19. Jaysis, I really don't understand the obsession you people have with putting us on the fast track to extinction. I know you're allergic to science and data and having things patiently explained to you since the 1980s, but it really is beyond belief sometimes.
  20. The difference in scary, and it's going to be a total shitshow when the two worlds eventually collide. I just can't fathom how our collective existence can be viewed through two such different lenses.
  21. Anyone on here with his mailing address has an opportunity for some comedy.
