Do Ate-like stuff. Live in a commune somewhere, drink lots of tea, meditate for several hours daily, run often, eat lightly and focus on a more sustainable lifestyle.
The biggest ate-like thing I'm doing right now is lying in a sensory deprivation tank every week. I just started taking two hour sessions, and my goal is to eventually stay in there overnight. I was originally doing it for meditation, but after my first 2-hour, I WILD'd (sleep paralysis, thought there was a monster in the tank), and had crazy lucid dreams. I'd do this every day, but it costs a lot. Maybe it'd be a good investment to just buy my own tank, and live in it.
stimulant psychosis maybe. I still wonder sometimes whether it was all an act or if he actually lost his mind
If it was performance art, he went the extra mile by typing out bucketloads via private messages that only one person would see. I'm 99% sure he was for real.
Who the hell is Figure 8 and what did he do
Yes, this too.
Figure-8 was a nutjob who typed incoherently and received his nutrients from sunlight. One time he saw a street light turning on and off and took a bunch of photos of this and posted them in a thread claiming it was paranormal somehow. He would just say the craziest shit that had no grounds in any reality.
