cube_flipper··on Estrogen: A Trip Report
I was living maybe ten minutes' walk from the local testing clinic at the time so it was actually pretty easy to monitor my blood work.

I completely quit coffee and energy drinks (I'd still drink jasmine and peppermint tea) for a few months last year. No effect on HRT. I did experience an increased emotional depth which I suspect should have happened independent of what hormones I was taking (wow; this caffiene shit makes me agitated, who knew)

I have legitimately never asked another human being to use a specific pronoun to address me before. Use what you like.

Oh, that's amazing. Did anybody experience anything interesting? My account on discord is cube_flipper if it's easier to talk there

I propose an experiment which demonstrates computation on the (DMT-altered) human visual system. It is a simple visual stimulus/web application which when viewed while on DMT should solve a graph cut problem, using colour as input and hallucinated depth perception as output (see blog post for full explanation):

I hope. I haven't tested it yet. Prior art includes Scott Aaronson's experiment in using soap bubbles for computation[1], and Mark Chiangizi's efforts to build logic gates from Necker cubes[2]:
