I feel the energy of the Nexus... It's getting darker lately. Ego vs. ego, intelligence vs. superstition matches abound... But no problem, I like it like this. And it will be better when we work it out. Hopefully we will.
Antrocles, where are you? We could use some light.
Shoe: I deep-heartedly agree, superficially (the usual mode) disagree. We are living in these systems called democracy, you know. We have to adjust our deeply felt Truth to the lowest common denominator.
I hear ya brother! the nexus has absoloutely stagnated lately, hardly any new posts coming up, and none of the love that used to be so abundant, for me. its all become way too real and serious. discussions about mental illness, tonnes of fear, arguments. gone is all the acceptance of other points of view, tolerance, embracing the crazy and lighthearted funmaking which covered all the serious differing of opinions.
Well, im' gonna make an effort to be more like that. be the light you require!

If it were only to "discover your truest self; and its place in the grand scheme" you then really do not need all these psychedelics neither too often to do it. If you really need to do psychedelics all the time to discover your truest self then you may actually have a personality problem.
I use the term 'self' here in the sense of the grand self, brahman, the absoloute 'self', not self as in you the person.
I appreciate your just looking out for me though, could you reconsider your response based on this new info?

They can also be a whole lot of fun, and great to bond with friends. Also I like to go clubbing from time to time and go dance around like crazy, and they work there sometimes. I went to see autechre on 4-aco-dmt recently, was a great fun expereince. I have also started taking peruvian torch when going to some club nights, its far better than mdma, I know this may not be the respectful way to do it and it snt doing it as a ceremony but it works and it makes me feel great. When I drink aya, which has been two-three times a month recently, sometimes more, then thats when I use them to work on myself, sometimes I will use other things for this personal work but imo they can be used for fun too! I dont think oh no im not using these how they should be used, for me I am using them how I should be because I am unique and it works for me.
Its weird but you actually sound the most sane out of all of us! I hardly ever go clubbing any more, and the DJing has suffered too. but fear not!!! soon enough I am organising a small outdoor party with my 250w cabs, a fold-out table, my laptop and effects. Its gonna be WICKED! I've dubbed it "froxxtoberfest."
My god,
stay on topic, shoe!

What about someone with a busted eustachian tube who uses LSD weekly to open up blood vessels and feel normal and not in pain anymore?
Entheogens are medicines with infinite functions, not just one.
Except for the fact that LSD is a vasoconstrictor, not a vasodilator, you make a valid point.
Yeah thats true as far as I know, It was in looking for a vasoconstrictor that the ergot alkaloids were originally investigated, and there is still an ergot derived medication used in excessive postnatal bleeding (methergin)
Protip for any would-be ergot researchers: there are also a few parkinson's drugs which are derrived from ergot.
