Extinct Drugs----Extraterrestrial drugs

I was reading about dinosaur extinction and I came across this

"Terrestrial plants also suffered a major extinction at this time; in some regions up to 60% of latest Cretaceous plant species were absent in the subsequent Paleocene."

What if there were some sweet drugs that went extinct during that time? Or even after?

And I always think, what if theres some sick drugs on other planets?

So many possibilities. So cool. Just some things to think about.
 
Chances are this happened. Then again, new hallucinogens are found "weekly" in the Amazon and in western laboratories.
They're both an expression of the Universe's wish, IMO, to make trans-species communication a possibility.

Something that went through my mind just now: what if the meteor that brought the extinction of the dinosaurs carried the spores of hallucinogenic mushrooms.
BOOYA, Universe being all self-realizing and stuff !

Ah, how I love how Terrence has influenced my mind. :)
 
Honestly, I recknon we bulldoze to extinction half a dozen new psyches & a couple cures for cancer in the jungles & forests of the Amazon, the East & in Africa every fucking day!
 
The original botanical identity of soma has never been established AFAIK and it is in all likelyhood extinct. Another example, although not a drug, is the roman seasoning of choice called silphium.
 
Yes this is an awesome thing to think about. There had to have been psychoactive plants that went extinct over time, it wouldn't make sense if the only drugs found in nature are the ones we have today. There are plenty of animals that eat certain plants knowing that it will get them high, so some dinosaurs had to have done that as well. What if other planets have the same drugs in different plants, or the same plants, or the same chemicals, or completely different chemicals and plants? Would they even work on our brain receptors? I'd love to try some extraterrestrial drugs.
 
God we do piss our time away thinking pointless crap don't we? No wonder no-one takes us seriously ;)

There's that asshole in Prometheus who's got tobacco in his breathing apparatus! Who on earth sent our boys to the moon without herb in their breathing apparatus? Peasant! I would not have missed the chance to get higher than anyone ever had!

so you think when you take hallucinogens you can communicate with other animals and aliens? hahaha

No, I don't mean it like that. Although that is the western, material, classic-historic, paternalistic way of viewing that theory.

I was referring to mushrooms and the like being able to help one lower the natural defenses of the individual (what Jung calls the Ego), and thus giving way to a "purer" (less biased) interpretation of the reality in our Universe.
It's more of a emotion-based, maternalistic way of viewing things.

I know how it sounds :). I don't mean to persuade people to join me in my thoughts, just thought to throw them out there.
 
oh you'll find scorn pored on anything feminine or related to emotions, by everyone in such a male-centric enviroment that we hardly even notice anymore that sexism is not just alive & well but kicking & screaming louder than ever.

& that comes from a man, which is me, I am obviously, that man.

I agree man
 
^^ Mm it shouldn't if you dried it properly. It has a pretty strong odor and that odor is not the smell of naphtha, that's for sure.
 
Animism is a legitimate experiential philosophy though. I mean, Salvia is an inter-dimensional (experiential) transportation device for sure. Ever been a chair? Or a lamp? Or your bed? Just because we can't easily imagine the perspective of an inanimate object or other organic sentience, doesn't mean stuff doesn't happen to them (as in experiencing things).

Self-awareness may not be necessary for consciousness.
 
They think there could be oceans warm enough for extraterrestrial life under the surface of one of jupiters moons. Maybe theres a super psychedelic fishy swimming around in there.8o
 
Also, possible silica-based lifeforms on Encephalus, a moon of liquid methane orbiting Saturn.
 
Or psychedelics lurking deep in the oceans depths...completely unbeknownst to mankind
