Are you sure you're looking at the stars, and not, y'know, your phone?
But yes, ask me anything and you shall have your answers.

It didn't post the whole thing
The first one is why does poison ivy exist? I would be happy to know that something benefits from poison and it doesn't just kill trees and cause nasty rashes?
Why are there so many people spreading hatred and just being complete assholes to other people?
If anyone else wants to post questions or just give me things to think about on acid feel free to!!

Poison ivy and poison oak readily occur on margin areas, especially where humans have caused destruction.Its a warning to hairless apes in an way, to sort of answer your first question.
As for your second question, remember, humans are primates. Primates treat most other primates horribly..

You're looking at the stars on acid and have questions, and the first one is about poison ivy? 
>Poison ivy was placed on the planet to fuck people's days up. it's really just a defense mechanism for the plant though

I am on acid and I am here to answer your questions and perhaps present a few of my own
Scratch that, apparently I am much too high to answer any questions at this point
I keep trying to think of the answer and the more I try to think of it the more confusing it all gets

Many species of birds eat the fruits of poison ivy. And deer eat the fruit and foilage. Rabbits eat the twigs, etc.
People are assholes

There is a place for everything. It exists because it plays its own unique role in the ecology of forests. Every plant and organism has its own unique role in the wilderness system! and for a more scientific answer, it has received added survivability over time because animals dont eat it since its evolved the ability to produce irritating compounds. also it is one of the few climbing vine plants in its native range, making it a pretty powerful competitor in the plant hierarchy.

mosquitoes are more annoying than poison ivy in the short term. people in general are dumb. i met one earlier tonight who has managed to generate two thriving threads. the coping mechanism for dumb people is for them to be assholes to normal people. thereby bringing the collective consciousness down

I look at it like this, there can't be love without hate and vice versa. One can't exist without the other. Also I hate mosquitoes!!

whats with the stigma with acid, I understand the stigma with all psychedelics but i have friends who are willing to do shrooms but wont touch acid with a ten foot poll. I don't know, people think acid is crazy and are afraid of it but I don't think it's that bad, but then again i probably cant say

Maybe it's the duration. I know that plays a part in it for me, but the stigma is just propaganda turned into folk lore and then beliefs.
What is the truth and what is a belief? Are they the same, or can you only have one or the other?

You sir need to check your facts. Lots of animals eat it, in fact, and it doesn't irritate them like it does humans. The chemical irritant in poison ivy is called urushiol and is not itself a poison, but rather its an allergic reaction to our bodies.

With acid the stigma associated with it nowadays is of a (dirty) man made chemical due to LSDs nature in requiring synthesis for one, and because of the large amount of research chemicals being passed off as acid now a days. It's much safer feeling to someone who hasnt consumed either to trust something "from the earth" and you can really see what you're getting more easily.

Well you see humanity has been enslaved for over 2000+ years by a dark cabal only now we are undergoing a collective shift in consciousness and as we transcend the 3rd dimensional realm and move to next levels of existence there must be a complete purging of all the karma that has built so that is occurring at an exponential rate until we reach critical mass in the equilibrium of understanding. So all the karmas are being dealt with as everyone undergoes their own personal evolution therefore everything is being laid out on the table so to speak, and it is increasingly more amplified until all the issues are resolved and the elite are stripped of their power and held accountable for their crimes, the power returns to the people and order and abundance shall be restored to humanity. Without yin there cannot be yang. Hope that helps!

Meh, the purpose of my answer was more to encourage ecological systems thinking rather than educating about poison ivy facts.
