It does affect serotonin levels does it not? That's what I meant/said earlier.
I haven't seen it do anything noteworthy personally, but if you guys would tell me what they've done for you without using vague terms like "awakening, or opened my mind to the world" you know something that it specifically did to improve your life that was long lasting. Because the way you guys talk about them they must do these things, I just don't think they're very special at all but my mind is easily swayed by evidence.
Just cause you havent seen them do anything "noteworthy" doesnt mean there not capable of doing so, Personally mushrooms eliminated the anxiety I felt about loving people and made me more expressive and "alive"
Wow you can name a chemical transmitter in the brain whoopty-fuckin-do now explain to me how that inanimate chemical translates into the feelings perceived by ones being

Quote:
Yrtlzmo said: I don't believe in anything greater than us, that might have a lot to do with my inability to be impressed by a fungus.
Am I the only one who sees a rather large contradiction between these two statements?
Psychoactive substances aside, fungi are extremely complex organisms with amazing adaptations that are unique - to this planet at least. If you are not impressed by inconceivably tiny molecules (psychedelics) that are capable of substantially altering consciousness (a state of being that all on its own does an amazing job of evading adequate definition & description), and you are not impressed by relatively macroscopic life in the case of fungi and all their impressive adaptations (spores that can survive extremes of temperature and pressure come to mind), in that case I am quite glad that I'm about as inspired to 'impress' you as you seem to be inspired by life.
I would like to point out that I find the notion that your lack of inspiration and awe at life on this planet - even in the form of fungi - is by choice, rather than an "inability". Considering I only "know" you based on a few posts - which is to say I don't know you at all = I certainly won't go so far as to claim that I am certain of this. But you called yourself "jaded" - and I can't help but wonder what there is to gain from refusing to find inspiration and awe in the variety, the plethora, and the incredible improbability (and beauty) of the existence of fungi - or bacteria, or archaea, or eukaryotes like yourself. Forget about fungi; the existence of existence is more than enough to fill me with joy and wonder.
If you truly are unable to feel that wonder (that, by the way, psychedelics seem to be able to bring rather acutely into focus), then in my opinion you're missing out on something that brings a great deal of contemplation and satisfaction to my life and the lives of many people I know. If, on the other hand, it's a choice, then I'd simply like to kindly suggest taking a good hard look at what the point of living in such an unimpressive and boring world is in the first place? I somewhat suspect that you might find some grains of wonder, awe, and bewilderment in your view of life and the world after all.

The law is retarded and people do what they want. Telling people here not to break the law is silly. Fuck the law that tries to control people when they are not hurting anyone.
I look up to people that shake their fist at the law and do what they feel is right. Fuck the police. I think anyone that locks a man up in a cell because of any plant or drug should be shot and left to rot.
Had to rant sorry. lol

I think it's wrong to be locked up for choosing to take drugs also, but i also realise at the end of the day that it is illegal to do so, and if i am caught doing these activities it can be a big problem.
Thus is why i say leave these things to other people.
If someone is so desperate that they literally have no other option then to resort to crime to make money, then so be it, but none of us here are in that situation.
You know what they say about playing with fire.

that was pretty damn cool actually.
let me say it more bluntly.
selling drugs will fuck your life up eventually. 
even if your one of the lucky ones who doesn't get busted and manages to get out of it without anything majorly going wrong, the fact of the matter is: the longer you stay involved in things like that the sooner it is that something bad will happen.
A criminal record will ruin your life , and force you to go back to crime to make money in the long run.
all for what? a mischevious buzz of getting away with it, respect or a feeling of being needed by drug addicts and a bit of play money you can't spend on anything substantial? ( don't get me started on the pointlessness of drug money and how it is bullshit money that can't even really be used in any significant way ).

Well I could get hit by a bus in the street tomorrow. That doesn't mean I'm going to stop leaving my house.
I say people should grow their own drugs if they want them, but if they have extra and want to sell a bit it's no big deal. Keep it in your circle and make it harder to get caught. People who sell on the street are retarded, but some people just don't care i guess.
I agree with you but I don't at the same time.

I just won't sell drugs to you. 
You're in law school, right? Since you don't think it's okay to sell or make money making illegal things, the next time I have a legal issue, why don't you lawyer me a bunch of shit for free?
People who provide substance procurement services to the community are ostracized, yet they do a job that is no different than a retail outlet or outside sales rep.
Psychedelics are wonderful, magical substances, but so is food. I'd argue that food is even more magical, when you think about it. Your incredible machine of a body is able to break down something that took its energy from the sun or from something else itself and use it to fuel your own consciousness and body. Without it, you will die. Yet, people sell it. People make money selling it. People who treat it disrespectfully, people who don't have any regard for you, and people who just want to make money on it sell it. People produce it incredibly cheaply and compromise the quality of the product to the level that it becomes poison, and they still sell it.
A lot of people can see this as wrong, but does that mean that we shouldn't pay farmers or people who bring us food at all?

People peddling drugs on the street are sketch and I associate sketchy people with sketchy drugs. If someone's on the street peddling chances are they're going to get busted and I don't want anything to do with any of that. I don't want to be the customer the cops bust around the corner in an attempt to actually bust the dealer.
