No, I thought not.

That's exactly it. I did join something not long back. It was only an hour and a half, twice per month, with six or seven other people. I only went three times and it was absolutely ghastly. There was nothing wrong with the people, but I just couldn't bear being with them. They were probably as relieved as me when I stopped going.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Fri Jul 22, 2022 9:18 pm People don't understand that so-called 'loners' also crave human company--it's just a very specific kind of human company.

It would be just my luck to stumble into some 'dealer's' personal patch, although I think scummy old Kiwis are more into meth/ice or cannabis if they are a 'cut above' (meth addicts are at the very bottom of the dung pile). I don't know if you get Netflix (I think I remember you once saying you don't have a TV) but there're some amazing documentaries on fungi called 'Fantastic fungi' and 'How to change your mind'.Harbal wrote: ↑Fri Jul 22, 2022 9:43 pmThat's exactly it.

Not meth. Psylocybin is non addictive, like other hallucinogenics such as LSD. Humans have been eating the mushrooms since prehistoric times.promethean75 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 23, 2022 12:52 am psilocybin indeed. i think the muscaria has intoxicating properties but has to be prepared somehow... but i ain't sure.
i have quite a history with psilocybin tho. my first experience involved splitting a quarter (four grams each) and driving a toyota Corolla at night through lightly falling snow for ten miles while listening to Yes's Fragile. we had to pick homeboy up, that's why i wuz drivin. it was so incredibly magical man with the snow in the headlights and the music and neither zonk nor myself could stop laughing it was so wonderful. it was like a serotonin dopamine overload. my whole amygdala was saturated with it. it was totally dreamlike, especially the effects of the snow flakes and headlights. i wuzzint at all impaired tho. I was high as fuck but my motor skill judgements weren't distorted. Shrooms have chemicals with molecular similarities to synthetic speed and methamphetamine if I remember reading correctly. You don't get sloppy on shrooms.
I like being alone, just me and my dog..and I like the quiet time to get on with my stuff without constant interuption. Tech is good now for chatting to family anywhere in the world with video also.
Do you think the day will ever come when we can say, "beam me to isle 2 at Tesco, Alexa, I've run out of bread?".attofishpi wrote: ↑Tue Jul 26, 2022 5:38 pm
I remember a scene in some film from the 80s where there some bloke was chatting through a small device in his hand (like todays mobiles) with video, and I thought to myself as if that's gonna be possible in my lifetime...well, we got that and a lot more - I love tech.
It's already here. This system we are in - "God" could present you to Tescos or you could get it to transfer the bread to your bread bin....but life is a lot more interesting when you have to go to the shops!Harbal wrote: ↑Wed Jul 27, 2022 9:03 amDo you think the day will ever come when we can say, "beam me to isle 2 at Tesco, Alexa, I've run out of bread?".attofishpi wrote: ↑Tue Jul 26, 2022 5:38 pm

I like being alone in solitude. Just me and my two cats. But every now and again I get a tad bit bat shit crazy, where I turn into a MAD-DAM ...I turn into a really nice, polite and respectful girl.attofishpi wrote: ↑Tue Jul 26, 2022 5:38 pm I like being alone, just me and my dog..and I like the quiet time to get on with my stuff without constant interuption.
