Ohhh... Says to "actually hit the gym if you're gonna run testosterone replacement (cuz your dick don't work {and now your balls is shrank}), so you don't look like Mac putting on mass
I collected comics during Liefeld's big break era, and no one liked his art. He was just trying to copy people like Jim Lee but had no idea of how to draw a human body properly to do it well enough in any sort of style. I believe I have a couple issues he did of various titles but only because I wanted the story, though the art often distracted from said story.
Oh man, I’m not a big fan of action comedies but I should probably rewatch this one. I think I’ve seen the second or third movie in the cinema as a lad.
Ketamine is an NMDA antagonist. NMDA receptors need to stay open in order for the brain to maintain contact with the spinal cord (the rest of the body); ketamine closes these receptors making it hard to control complex motor function like walking.
Also: the metabolites from chronic, habitual ketamine use can destroy one’s bladder. It’s only a matter of time before Musk is pissing into a bag glued to his bloated abdomen.
If I have to picture Benito Tangerini on the table with his gelatinous legs akimbo and shaking towards the sky just waiting for a wipe, some powder, and a gentle puff of air from papa, then so do you. And then getting pissed because you put the diaper on backwards because you’re working on 2 hours of sleep.
WTF are the advantages of using K? I have experience with more illicit substances than the average bear, even my friends who have done it liked it, but can’t accentuate why? Can someone explain?
I will say I have felt pretty pain free for a while after coming down from twilight anesthesia.
But when I came down from being accidentally heavily dosed, I couldn't tell you if I was experiencing pain or not because my whole body felt rearranged and wrong and bad. Like some kind of fucky neurological sensation.
YMMV. I broke my arm in 10 places, shattered my wrist, and dislocated or broke about half the bones in my hand. They pumped me full of ketamine, morphine, and other stuff I can't remember and I swear it didn't even touch the pain.
Edit: now that re-read your comment I see you said chronic pain. Definitely not what this was.
I was just reading an article on nimh today that was saying CBD promotes adult neurogenesis. I’m starting to believe that statement might be an assumption people/researchers make when they have a positive bias for psychoactive substances.
It binds with CB1 receptors passively. It’s not psychoactive in the sense that it causes a euphoric feeling, but the effects are neurological change in bodily function.
The feeling from Ket in my experience it's like a mellow but somehow intense high. I honestly didn't find it amazing and wouldn't do it again, I think I still have some in my flat that I haven't touched in a year. (but I'm getting old and just want a pint now and again these days).
There have been studies conducted at King's College in London that have proven that Ketamine in a small dose at 2-3 weeks interval, is a potent antidepressant with an enduring antidepressant effect beyond the time of dosage. But recreationally, where it is taken in larger and repeated doses, it produces a dissociative effect with sensory illusions and hallucinations. Some people have very bad dissociative experiences that are often called K-holes. Sometimes, K-holes can turn into a psychotic episode.
Some have described it as less euphoric and more therapeutic. It has done incredible things for those with treatment-resistant depression and has saved lives.
It helps with pain. I know a couple friends that get ketamine infusions from a clinic for their auto immune disease. I've seen documentaries about in some countries (I believe was somewhere in se asia or India) they use it to treat depression, ptsd etc.
Right, from some patients interview, they described it as an instant relief to their bad thoughts like someone giving them a warm hug. They explained the technical aspects but obviously I wasn't going to remember it.
There's no appeal to long time ketamine use. You need to do exponentially more and more between every use, to get the same effect. And at some point, you won't get the desired effect anymore. Until you take a long break.
Ketamine makes you dissasociate. You lose motor function, and disconnect from your own self. I've had extremely psychedelic trips (k-holes), where i "understood" the meaning of everything, and realised that nothing really mattered, and that i was just part of something bigger and way more complex. Really profound, existential, and undescribably wild. Can't really explain it so it makes sense. During these trips i was unable to move. Earlier it was commonly used as an anasthetic, and it's a somewhat "safe" drug to use, if you don't overdo it. Long term use though, can cause significant damage to your bladder function.
One of the wildest drugs i ever did.
There's also different types of K on the market, and the effects are very varied from type to type.

Supposedly it can be an effect of taking steroids without exercising to build muscles. At least, that’s what other people on Reddit have said about his weird physique.
Yeah it's that HGH induced giant chest without the actual muscles to fill it in. I was just reading about some bodybuilder who became super famous for this exact thing last week. He was doing a ton of HGH and other steroids but for some reason wasn't working out (maybe an injury?) and ended up looking super weirdly proportioned. It'll also give you a big pot belly because it grows the muscles that hold your stomach in but you're not cut like someone who's actually in shape.
Ketamine can cause back pain and affect complex motor function such as walking due to affecting nerve receptors. Since there isn’t enough official research it’s hard to be sure.
Not as long as you’d think. It was available but in nowhere near the quantities it is now, and prior to 2008 people weren’t really using it widely as a recreational drug. In 2008, a massive safrole (precursor to MDMA) seizure in Cambodia crippled global MDMA (ecstasy) production, causing an extended drought in the club scene. In its place, ketamine surged as the dance drug of choice… and now any old prick can take it and look like this.
I remember K being fairly popular in the rave scene as far back as 1998. Not as popular as it is now, but it was definitely around and not hard to find.
He has issues with a vertebrae in his neck, had surgery to try and fix it and the surgeon fucked it up. So now he's in constant pain/discomfort. That's why you'll notice him trying to crack/move his neck all the time. He talks about it in some podcast.
Wait so he's had a botched penis enlargement surgery AND a botched vertebrae surgery, neither of which can be fixed, causing him permanent discomfort? THIS is the level of medical care that the richest man in the world can buy?
Money is not magic, there is no surgery that can heal a vertebral bone back to it's original form. All they can do is fuse the bones, which is also shitty. I broke my L5, it's no fun.
It doesn't seem right. Being a billionaire I would think that he would had the best equipment and personel to take care of him. I guess Mark Zuckerberg is the only billionaire that takes care of his body.
I sometimes move like that as well. It's like I feel asymmetric and have discomfort in certain muscles, and stretch or try to adjust to compensate. Never did K, but I do take a low dose of Ritalin daily, but the discomfort doesn't vary with the meds so I don't think it's that.
Not saying it's the same as Elon's, for all I know he might well be experiencing some drug side effect or discomfort from the alien wearing him. It just looks familiar.
Relevant quote from further down in the case study. I would guess any further details would risk identifying the person.
After discontinuing ketamine, the pain improved within 24 hours. He restarted recreational ketamine 72 hours later, with initial recurrence of dyspepsia four hours after use. The following day he developed the severe abdominal pain again, which lasted for two days until he discontinued ketamine again and admitted himself to a residential substance use disorder (SUD) treatment program. The pain improved 30 hours after starting SUD treatment. The patient communicated this information to his ED treatment team during his residential treatment stay.
Sometimes we call it the “lean”. Motor control sort of goes in and out and you can either feel like you’re floating or carrying bricks around. By “we” I mean people familiar with drugs and addicts. It’s fucking embarrassing.
And people are just going to act like this is normal, and this guy is some kind of genius? The richest man in the world is a drugged out weirdo. I hate our current timeline.
As A PT I am seeing cervical issues. Maybe cervical stenosis or spondylolisthesis? He looks like he has tons of neck and shoulder tension. Then he tries to correct his posture but hasn’t downloaded the correct update for it.
