Mescaline seems cool for sure, but has anyone here actually done it besides cinci when it didnt work?
Yeah. Not 60’s form but we got some caps of dried and encapsulated peyote when I was a senior in high school. 2 days later Teachings of Don Juan showed up in my possession though I hadn’t heard of it. It wasn’t a form you could go hard on if in fact that’s what it does. But it did put you into your head in a milder way. Read Behavioral and Non-Behavioral effects.
Mescaline induces a psychedelic state comparable to those produced by LSD and psilocybin, but with unique characteristics.[29] Subjective effects may include altered thinking processes, an altered sense of time and self-awareness, and closed- and open-eye visual phenomena.[49]
Prominence of color is distinctive, appearing brilliant and intense. Recurring visual patterns observed during the mescaline experience include stripes, checkerboards, angular spikes, multicolor dots, and very simple fractals that turn very complex. The English writer Aldous Huxley described these self-transforming amorphous shapes as like animated stained glass illuminated from light coming through the eyelids in his autobiographical book The Doors of Perception (1954). Like LSD, mescaline induces distortions of form and kaleidoscopic experiences but they manifest more clearly with eyes closed and under low lighting conditions.[54]
Heinrich Klüver coined the term "cobweb figure" in the 1920s to describe one of the four form constant geometric visual hallucinations experienced in the early stage of a mescaline trip: "Colored threads running together in a revolving center, the whole similar to a cobweb". The other three are the chessboard design, tunnel, and spiral. Klüver wrote that "many 'atypical' visions are upon close inspection nothing but variations of these form-constants."[55]
As with LSD, synesthesia can occur especially with the help of music.[56] An unusual but unique characteristic of mescaline use is the "geometrization" of three-dimensional objects. The object can appear flattened and distorted, similar to the presentation of a Cubist painting.[57]
Mescaline elicits a pattern of sympathetic arousal, with the peripheral nervous system being a major target for this substance.[56]
According to a research project in the Netherlands, ceremonial San Pedro use seems to be characterized by relatively strong spiritual experiences, and low incidence of challenging experiences.
My dad has been telling me to read Castaneda for years, maybe I'll finally do it in honor of Inforoo Drug Survivor.
My main point is if barely any of us have even experienced it, it's kinda weird to keep pushing it through the game.

I took too much ketamine at a show once and had an out of body experience where I thought I was a Ukrainian Rebel at war with the Russians. Didn't do or say anything weird in real life but came back from that trip extremely scared, all of it happened inside my head and was like I was watching a movie as the main character. I didn't enjoy it at all, but I reckon that kind of batshit crazy experience on a drug might be somebody's cup of tea

Not gonna lie though, a touch of ketamine when you're otherwise sober (I am talking about the littlest bit of K) can take all of the pain out of your legs and keep you dancing for another hour or two. Have been known to do that. Definitely no ketamine adventures into my psyche though

I have four friends who have recently used ketamine as part of a course of therapeutic treatment and they swear that it has made a huge difference for their emotional health.
Do you want to dance while also thinking about all the ways you've failed as a human?

chewing tobacco might be the worst thing ever though, just absolutely disgusting
oh absolutely. dip is revolting.
but if we are playing "lets vote considering the absolutely worst receptacle of that substance," then you'll have to consider shit like Raspberry Pink Moscato Arbor Mist for alcohol and "that little burnt piece of a nug i found under my couch from last month" for weed.
I would rather smoke a roach I found on the floor of a bar than mouth a scoop of fresh chaw

same, obviously. im just speaking to the principle of what you were suggesting.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
Since it seems like this might be steroids' time to go, here's where I'll drop an endorsement for the 2008 documentary Bigger Stronger Faster, which takes a really nuanced look at the phenomenon of steroid use, performance-enhancing drugs, and the way our stupid American culture and capitalist system built on making people feel insecure and afraid contributes to the whole mess.
In high school my friend watched this and his takeaway was to do steroids.

Wow, was that not the message I took from it, but then again I was in my 30s when I watched it, so maybe age and wisdom (LOL) played into that.
The filmmaker's brother is one of the subjects, and he's a huge 'roid fan, and in no way do you get the impression watching the film that his life has been made anything but worse because of it (bears, out, too - dude died at 37 after years of steroid and other drug abuse).
I think the thing is that the doc doesn't necessarily take a "steroids = automatically and inherently bad" POV, and compares them to other performance-enhancing medicines like beta blockers. Instead, the real villain of the story is a culture that markets to all of us that we won't be happy unless we're stronger, fitter, the most elite version of ourselves that we can be, and that we're shit if we're not doing everything we can to win win win all the time. I really liked that about it.

It definitely had something to do with him being 17 and in track/football. He also was at a very small private school and I felt like their whole athletic culture was toxic because the school's athletics were really good for their private school division. Would have gotten steamrolled by just about any public TX HS football or track team, but my man was a record holder in the 400m in his tiny kingdom.
DMT really should have been included in this. esp over something like Tylenol and Steroids
That shit gets intolerable sometimes. Too many mothballs at Shpongle, Tipper and Ott shows imho. I never really cared much about getting into it, so I didn’t. Lots of people love it. I would have voted it off around now.
People went all in on roid rage. I only got the pills prescribed once to get over shingles when I was young. I ended up having a bad case of acne for a week or so after I weened off. They have their abuse and their usefulness depending on who is taking them and why. Outside of whatever side effects - heart issues, loss of nut size, squaring women’s jaws or however it is they fuck you up - I really don’t care one way or the other about steroids. If they make people feel good about themselves maybe there can be a recreational happy medium without having to cycle and shit. I still remember the 80’s wrestling days and some of the guys like Don Muraco that would have those bulging river veins from injecting which to me is going too far with it.
Steroids saved my life when I coded after surgery, so I have nothing but respect for their medical uses... but if we're just talking meatheads? Yeah, it's steroids.

for a semester in college i lived in a house with two gym guys who were doing steroid cycles. one of them was pretty chill but the other one was not, i came home once and he'd ripped the bathroom door frame clear off. i asked him what happened and he said "i got mad".
incinnati Ohio babeyyyy
