KETAM–

No, actually, I’d take music. I don’t mean streaming, but buying albums to own. At that point, that’s a subscription service gone.

I’d also take ammo for no reason in particular.

(I’m assuming crypto assets for unlimited money is cheating)

Ah, that’s in the pipeline too.

Remember the term: RDASH.

May the Heavens smite Trump, and every MAGAt, and let the thunder roar to the furthest ends of the Earth.

And make sure it fucking hurts.

Mist fell from every leaf, and the Sun turned purple.

LSD (and MDMA (and edibles (and DMT)))

I was too fit, as I had a magnesium deficiency (I was fine).

I don’t actually! It’s tradesies.

We need a GoCommitDie

That’s just LSD for me

Do not bend the knee I swear to fuck

Bit of a tangent, but…

That’s what’s so damn interesting about it. It isn’t a feel good pill. Cannabis, on the other hand, is easygoing, comfortable, possible to use frequently…

…and, behind the scenes, it significantly disrupts the dopamine system, souring the mood in the long term.

Conversely, LSD offers a wildly different option. It can provide just as much terror as it can provide joy… but it’s also frequently introspective. It’s what I’d call an amplifier. Further, it boosts mood over time, renowned for frequently causing uplift lasting weeks or months–sometimes, even after a difficult experience.

And that’s how it’s been for me for three years and counting. Not necessarily fun (though, I’ve never had a bad trip), but merely about seeing things from different perspectives. I will always prefer LSD over comfort–I want challenge. That’s why I also like salvia.

It’s the opposite of ignorance–the CIA’s big miscalculation here. I can only imagine (I actually can’t, I have aphantasia) what those trips during MKUltra were like. I’ve witnessed at least one train wreck, so I have at least some perspective. All I can do is hope that such a thing never happens again… or work to.

I just also hope people don’t point to MKUltra as a reason to keep psychedelics outlawed. I would probably be dead without them, and continued reference to LSD as a “psychotic” just hurts.

Well, the point is that this project was an absolute disgrace to Albert Hofmann, and to the eventual culture which surrounded the substance.

LSD isn’t the problem with MKUltra–it’s this wretched government that is.

Yes, but… how does this connect to what I said?

Run? In 2028?

What election?

As an LSD user, fuck MK Ultra.

You want to add insult to insult? Following these experiments, where they determined this remarkable medicine couldn’t be used for evil, they placed it in Schedule I–highly addictive, dangerous, no medical use.

Because they couldn’t brainwash people with it. That’s rather difficult to do with a red pill.

MAN

I’m tapping the sign again.

Freedom means destroying the right. We’ve instead decided to peacefully protest against an unchangeable cult of hatred.

Look what happened.

Now THIS is shit!

Repeal the 1st. It’s clear you can’t have religious freedom without it just allowing a theocracy.

We shouldn’t ban religion, though–just institution.
