You know that theory that hallucinogens helped us move up from apes? Maybe humanity is ready for it's next move up?
But seriously, "because they're fun" and "reality isn't promising or hopeful" are probably the big ones here.
combine that with the fact that no one trusts the government to tell them what drugs are dangerous anymore. maybe you never did, but many many people used to not do various drugs because they trusted that they were illegal for a reason. the current state of marijuana being federally illegal and clearly not hurting people that bad has made that much much harder to believe.
Fun fact, the mountain where Moses did the Ten Commandments thing? It had a native hallucinogenic plant growing in it.
Is this true? I’ve always assumed he was tripping.😆
He did trip, that's how he broke the third tablet. Used to be the 15 commandments.
It's true, there are two plants native to the area that produce the psychoactive compounds also found in Ayahuasca. Peganum harmala aka harmel or wild rue, and Acacia confusa aka ayangile or formosan koa
The former is a short, bushy flowering herb, and the latter is a variety of tree that Noah might have used to build the ark.
variety of tree that Noah might have used to build the ark.
or a trebuchet, or a wooden horse. each seems as realistic as an ark.
Or maybe reality isn't promising or hopeful due to people taking hallucinogens instead of tinkering or creating or rioting.
I've never taken one. Reality sucks
Mine sucked less than usual yesterday, but it was a mistake to walk that much with cold, so today it sucks more than usual.
I'm sorry. Even though I dont know you, I really hope things get better for you (and for everyone else) :\
Yeah, they'll do, and then they'll get worse, and then again better, and further the zebra way.
