Psilocybin-containing mushrooms have an ineffable effect on our consciousness; a breakthrough dose defies description, language, and our ordinary constructs of reality.

One strong dose, just ONE, is enough to break the illusions currently plaguing the majority of the world. The jig would be up. Civilization stops looking so civilized. One understands that there is far, far more going on in the Universe than our scientific materialism understands.

Your question begs the question: what really matters? One way to answer that is to quote Alan Watts: If an Apple Tree apples, then the Earth peoples, and Nothing matters.

I concur

psylocybin.is what most people are talking about here. (sorry spelling)if you want to break the chaines then aquire some of the real thing. aminita muscaria. the alice in wonder land shroom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srvrUuKsclQ

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

look into it you can find these every where. google or whatever search engine you use. i go every spring and fall to northern Minnesota. we find them under pine trees. all the "cow patty party shroom dudes will tell you they are dangerous. im not dead.

dude look up aminita in your area . they are every where. i promise.

if you want a really strange experience. find aminita. i have seen little people. polka dots. im not going further. shit gets real here this aint shrooms...

stop trying to rationalize it. you cant.aminita is something totally different. it is alive.....like living.

aminita is best served live......... hahah. it has a certain amount of toxicity as all mushrooms do. even the grocery store models. so cooking takes most of it out. they are best when you find them as they are growing. the natives in the southwest only used them in ceremony when they were living. you can drie them but i have never seen those. after you pick them they deteriorate quickly so you have to freeze them. will make some people throw up, hence its negative reputation. i personalty have never had any problems. but you should cook them and drink the tea. im telling you now, its a completely different scene. get ready for a sense of presence. i have had some amazing experiences. was up on mt. lemmon near Tucson one time, we were all seeing fairy's, little people, and all kinds of so called mythical animals and colors. colors and trails. fukin' amazing. the sights are in the peripheral. so you have to sit and GAZE. dont focus. aminita if your not ready can be scary. you should always have a partner. this stuff makes the woods come alive. dont do this in a sterile environment. it puts you in touch with what makes us alive.

i will tell you now aminita will fuck with your unstable mind.

Never did mushrooms, always spooked me (the trip). Drank absinthe and wormwood though. How different are they than the green faery?

I've done both several times, IMO they don't compare. Wormwood just made me feel different. Mushrooms opened new pathways in my brain. Glorious pathways of truth. Not joking. Would highly recommend them for anyone.

*Also, there's no such thing as a bad trip. Sometimes the truths that are revealed can be intense, emotional or upsetting. When people can't handle the truth they get scared and call it a bad trip. (could be as simple as suppressed guilt coming to the surface, etc.)

Obviously too, don't do them in a dumb situation (i.e. don't go into a dark cave filled with water up to your neck and eat mushrooms unless you want a 'bad trip'...yes my friend did this last weekend)

Interesting. Did you drink the authentic absinthe, and not the shit they allow in the US? My wormwood experience kind of reminded me of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Definitely hallucinated and tripped bawls. This was in Russia though. I also heard they have this stuff that is from chicken shit or something. I presume it's like mushrooms, never tried it though. Really interested in your experience. I wanna try mushrooms, but it's kind of freaks me out, plus it's illegal. Fuck the government....

Indeed, I drank it both in Russia and Kiev. And locally, but it came from there. It was a subtle high from my experience. Mushrooms aren't.

I've eaten mushrooms and closed my eyes in bed before. I was shown the fabrics of the universe (it's what I went into it hoping to learn about). This may sound crazy if you've never tried them... I've heard LSD is similar but I haven't done it - I prefer natural things.

Try them, by all means. If you eat a small dose, you'll experience the sensory effects without really tripping in your mind, so don't worry. Start with like 1 gram, or even a half. You'll end up laughing your ass off for an hour, seeing physical matter a bit differently, and that's about it.

Goodness, I love mushrooms. I can ramble about them for ever. I truly think everyone should try them (at the right time and in the right setting).

My 65 yr old dad wants to try them with me, I'm excited.

I don't think you have to be content inside to eat mushrooms, in fact I think they can help you sort some of those internal problems out. Of course there are times when my mental is not in the right state to eat mushrooms, but you don't have to wait 'til you're happy. If you want to eat them solely to have 'fun', then you're right, it may not be a jolly few hours.

And for sure, a couple grams will do me just fine too if they're decent mushrooms.

Thanks for your comment, and I may just indeed take the leap. I know where to get em, it just has always spooked me. We shall see. I've definitely been heading down this road for some time. I drink (I know it's bad, but my mind reacts differently to it than others), but have been looking to be more holistic and seek natural things. Just sucks because the State can lock you up for having a fuckin' plant or mushroom. SMH, so much wrong with that....

Cheers, if you do I'd be curious to hear about your first experience.

I wouldn't recommend them so adamantly to everyone - I have friends who don't like them but they also don't like having their reality challenged. Needless to say they're not on /r/conspiracy.

I drink too, maybe not like you do, but I also appreciate what it does. Luckily my body dislikes it too much for me to be able to get carried away with it.

Cheers! If/when I do, I'd def post about it here. As for drinking, it's weird for me. It helps me relax and encourages me to research/retain information. I do not do it to "have fun and party", like most do. It's hard to explain, but then again, I'm a Slav (Pole) and it's in my blood. We all react to substances differently. As of right now, I've had quite a few and am still discussing rationally. Weird world we live in. Truly though, thanks for your comment. You may have just convinced me to try it. Everything happens for a reason!

it sucks the eleusinian mysteries went out of style and favor.

those cats brewed up a concoction from ergot (and possibly myrrh) and mass tripped in honor of the goddess Demeter

I see. Yeah, it's a shame. I'm from the US, and had some when I went to Poland and Russia in my "younger" years... The trip was very interesting, I've been changed since...

that's why they're illegal. You've answered your own question.

Because our brains would be fucking pudding.

Psilocybin is remarkably non toxic. You could eat a wheelbarrow full and still be fine.

i dont know if it'll all fit in a wheelbarrow if youre trying to suicide by shrooming.

its something like 37 lbs of fresh mushrooms to kill someone weighing 160 pounds. maybe like 4 pounds or so of dried.

either way, that is a LOT of fungus to be among.

ive never heard of a thc overdose

ive read/heard that you can die from smoking 14 pounds of the stuff, but the cause of death is actually carbon monoxide poisoning

Challenge accepted.

As a result of what, TV?

No. Mushrooms.

"Magic mushroom completely impair a user’s brain chemical makeup which can cause them to have chemical imbalances in their brain once the drug leaves their system. If a person continues to abuse magic mushrooms, they may end up having permanent brain damage."

Yet you have complete faith in Eli Lilly, Pfizer and their pals to only brew up safe compounds in their never ending pursuit of profits.
