Nice. My housemate is a biochemist who's main line of work is with plant-based compounds, but I've never tried it myself.

Did you have a good time ?

So your real name is !saac?
Or are you pretending to be something you are not?

What wonderful freedom comes in never having to put on ANY pretense EVER or "prove" anything to anybody about youeself.
The pain of not knowing who you are is ended by seeing that you need not be anyone at all.

I'm sure there's a bajillion!!

Mostly for reasons of entertainment for most...people follow what interests them and in exploring interests you sometimes have to step out of your "personality box" to try new things.
 Quoting: ArunaLuna


I can understand that, when I was a kid I was very into theater/drama/stage makeup, even did mime school for a bit.

It does take all types to make the world what it is, I personally have to draw the line where it comes to making my decisions on how to live.
 Quoting: !saac


That's a good idea...I think a much higher quality of life can be lived when you DO draw that line especially in regards to more intimate relationships...not just man woman ones but personal interactions with core groups...family, close friends...when you can be open about who you REALLY are you create deeper bonds with those people...and generally a better quality of life (by nature) just starts to emerge. Almost like by design, the harmony created plows a path for goodness to arrive in some way.

I lives in a fairytale land most of the time so don't take my comments as "truth"...

What's crazy is when you be yourself and others think you are something you are not.
 Quoting: Septenary Man


That's why we should always be honest with each other about who we are and what we know, we owe each other that much at least.

If somebody were to think I'm anything, then they've had to have been around me long enough to know me well enough that that if I've been honest about who I am as a person, there will be no confusion about it.

^^ This. Most people just can't handle how I perceive reality. Really they can't handle anything outside of their very narrow bubble, so why should I be disruptive and show them more when instead I can be polite and just be a reflection of the sides of themselves and their limited view that they are comfortable with?
