Psilocybin - a property found in magic mushrooms - enhanced ancient humans' visual skills for hunting and gathering and may have used it to boost their sexual stimulation, leading to an increased chance of mating

The squirrels in my backyard eat mushrooms all the time ...they do seem to “trip out” and frequently exhibit wild, erratic, squirrel gymnastics after the aforementioned indulgences.. Can I expect them to start organizing and demanding squirrel reparations soon?

These “scientists” are smoking mushrooms. What absolute nonsense!

origin of consciousness

6000 years ago when Adam and Eve ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, their eyes were opened, and knew they were naked. Before they ate of the tree, they were naked but were not ashamed (Genesis 2:25-3:11).

The morel is the The Point of the story, so it is time to redeem the magic mushrooms, to spring 'em from jail.

Anybody with me? Let's Roll (Wheels of Love):

the fungi increased connectivity between networks in the frontal brain region associated with expressive language, decision-making and memory.

Down to earth translation:

Just like Rudolph the red-nosed Reindeer, the fun guy *always* gets there first:

Kilroy was here is a meme[1] that became popular during World War II, typically seen in graffiti. Its origin is debated, but the phrase and the distinctive accompanying doodle became associated with GIs in the 1940s: a bald-headed man (sometimes depicted as having a few hairs) with a prominent nose peeking over a wall with his fingers clutching the wall.

Kilroy was Here

Kilroy was famous for magically appearing in sealed compartments or other surprise places where nobody should have been able to access. Yet...there he was..

Engraving of Kilroy on the National World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Doubled, just to make certain, because anyone's who's been diligently seeking Kilroy (he brings hope and a smile in dark and uncertain times) knows that Kilroy appears as identical twins at the DC WWII Memorial... facing away from each other, separated by a Wall of [4,048] Stars:

2024 + 2024 stars...

"HERE WE MARK THE PRICE OF FREEDOM"

The brothers engraved in stone are each literally locked behind the two (double) golden gates, where the doors to the maintenance stairs/ladder lie on the floor.

More specifically, the brothers are outward of the wall and waterfalls, facing states 1 and 2, pillars Delaware 🤔 and Pennsylvania 🤔.

As per the photos shown,

The Kilroy close to a left corner faces south, toward the DE pillar
The Kilroy close to a right corner side faces north, toward the PA pillar

Facing away from each other.

The pillars are also engraved on their back sides, not just on the faces that are inside the memorial plaza.

As such, when looking east toward the rising sun , the imagery reads like this, across the memorial's pool (location of the two men in white on each side) toward the WAMO:

☀️
𓉶
🔵
PA ↤(RA)↦ DE

There you are, for anyone interested in truly magic mushrooms. It's as if... the Kilroy twins share their birthday with the Atomic Age.

So beautiful, "as if every brick in the streets and buildings was laid by hand by an artist who loved his work" ~ GOPJ, re a dream about a city too beautiful to exist, yet... there it is, out of Egypt, with a sun and an obelisk to light the way, for those who are willing to... turn things around. It's not any work at all if it is love.

***

"Kilroy was here" was a graffito that became popular in the 1940s, and existed under various names in different countries, illustrating how a meme can be modified through replication. This is seen as one of the first widespread memes in the world.[29]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meme

Memes are Magic Mushrooms and...

There are two forms of the mem: the open mem and the closed mem. As the Talmud explains,1 the open mem represents the revealed Torah and the closed mem represents the Torah’s secrets."

The AriZal states:2 “It is a mitzvah to reveal the secrets of Torah.”

A "meme" [מם] is water, the letter mem that is doubled and as such adds up to 80, like how many years since D-Day.

Isaiah 11:9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

"HERE WE MARK THE PRICE OF FREEDOM"

I credit the female of the species.

We were perfectly happy hanging around in the trees.

But nooooooo.

Women had to be all like “why don’t we have a nice cave like the Oggs over there.”

Thank you for posting this thread-I found it interesting, checked out the related articles you referenced, etc-I’m sorry to see the thread degenerate into a religious war of sorts over a theory expressed in one article by one person-some people don’t seem able to read an article, discuss, etc just on the merits of that one article without throwing in religion/atheism, demons, plane geometry, the theory of relativity, or the kitchen sink.

You have the patience of a saint-please keep posting these articles for those of us who are actually interested in the science, theory, etc of the subject matter...
