Deer poop Mushrooms,,,
Getting Weird.
Glad they don’t hate cigars...........
Micro dosing is actually helping people. It can be the exact opposite of getting wasted.
Good post. Making nature illegal takes some serious Gd-delusions.
Now we're seeing cheesy little pot shops opening up everywhere. Exactly the way it happened in that now dump, Colorado.
Want to see where this leads? Go to Durango.

I don't know if this applies to what you said or not, but:
When I was using LSD type things back in the early 70's, window pane, orange sunshine, blotter, whatever ... when everyone else was taking a "whole hit", I never did. I used to use a half or even less (sometimes with blotter I could cut off about a quarter of one and play semi-pro baseball. That was a trip) There are lots of really cool stories about playing high quality baseball while tripping. Ask Doc Ellis.)
The results of a smaller dose were very similar, but much more controllable.
As I said earlier, I started after college, after my Army Security Agency duty, and after doing a lot of reading on the drug. (see post # 35)
ps --- I hated being with people who even used the word "wasted". I spent my life with an athletic, high intelligence small group of guys and women. No one in our little crowd was a loser who enjoyed being out of control. It was frowned upon. We did it to learn and have some fun. Life was bigger as a result.

Turns out those mushrooms on the deer poop pile were not magic.

Some people just cannot handle it, and those who have preexisting psychological issues, latent psychosis, etcetera, should not even be partaking in marijuana, let alone psilocybin mushrooms.
The barely repressed crazy is going to really cut loose when they do, and they may not ever get it bottled up again."

I just wanted to post your very wise post one more time. You sum up the situation well.
Thanks
“Those colors are always there. Some folks just never get to see them.”
No, the colors are not there ever.
It’s a subjective experience due to distorting normal neuronal processing with toxins.
Others may see only black or hear sounds etc...
Your “wow isn’t everything so beautiful” is a mindset of a juvenile who smoked pot or took mushrooms for the first time.
Laughable.
Back in the day I did not understand Richard Schultes comment that these drugs and experiences were no big deal.
You’ve made it in to your religion.

I’m curious, why aren’t you a liberal?
“There are too many survivors of the 60s around here to sell that myth.”
I know. That’s what’s so funny about these disruptors.
And it’s not just the 60’s. It’s 70’s, 80’s, 90’s.
Use of these drugs has become more widespread than in the 60’s with the passage of time.
People are conservative as far as governance for many reasons. Not all are social conservatives. I’d think you’d have noticed this before now.
Far out, man.
Silly Simon is back in town.
“as if Portland isnt already nutty enough. Some people just cannot handle it, and those who have preexisting psychological issues, latent psychosis, etcetera, should not even be partaking in marijuana, let alone psilocybin mushrooms. The barely repressed crazy is going to really cut loose when they do, and they may not ever get it bottled up again.”
It’s perfect for the liberals because it will just show the need for more socialism on all levels.
“These hurting people need help”
Perfect example the kind of pseudoscience people believe when they ruin their brain with drugs (and done people will naturally believe it)
Drugs make people animists.

Citation?
These media hypes and fads are usually nothing.
To extent here could be something there, I’d think that the drug Albert Hoffman later developed called Hydergine would probably be a better idea.

LOL......... that's why Schultes told Burroughs that he saw all sorts of colors and patterns when on ayahuasca.
LMAO
