Tryptamines Terence Mckenna bullshit tripping advice

[perpetualdawn]

I was just listening to some Terrence McKenna rant this morning and was pretty impressed actually. He had a lot of interesting perspectives.

Regarding the aliens, I always got the impression he was pretty skeptical about the whole thing. I remember him talking about seeing a UFO and how obviously it was a creation of his own mind because it was styled exactly like a vacuum cleaner from the 50s.

Trip in the dark, with the lights on, or with your pants off, or your butter side down, what ever floats your boat maaan.

I was just listening to some Terrence McKenna rant this morning and was pretty impressed actually. He had a lot of interesting perspectives.

He certainly had a way with words and many interesting ideas and perspectives to intrigue the layman or even the seasoned user. The way he spoke, his unique voice and cadence, almost sounded like a psychedelic molecule had manifested itself into a human body in a way and was talking to us, in a wax poetic sense.

I took most of my psychedelic advice from other sources. But I definitely credit him with inspiring me to smoke DMT at the peak of a large LSD dose, which was the most profound experience I ever had with psychedelics. I also think his description of DMT breakthroughs are probably the most accurate I've heard... about as accurate as you can get with such an indescribable experience.

I really miss the guy and wish he were still with us. I wonder what he would be saying these days.

Yeah I wonder what he'd be saying these days too esp wrt the emergence of LLMs and gen AI.
The thing I was listening to this morning was this:

He had some pretty interesting things to say, I think this was around '98, but really applicable to today.

Psychdelic drugs are potent stimulants regardless of dose, It makes sense to reduce outside noise If you want more personal trip. The only drugs I hate that being pushed on Is Dissos where It acute psychosis mimicking psychdelic headspace free from panic/fear. Even bigger no for deliriants since despite being D2 agonists you have Delirium limiting your reason/logical thinking making any scary thought in the dark get amped to 11, Hence It better start in the day time.
