I took them once and spent the evening in tears thinking I was going to die. Vodka and Cocaine much better....

mushrooms like poo

I love the combination of all 3.

So the world would be a much better place if someone were to serve mushroom omelets at the Republican National Convention? Hmmmm.

no thanx

I hear that. Oh the 80s

You were.....it is called "Ego Death" Your mind wasn't allowing your body let go of reality. You should have had better company to see you thru.

I still prefer lucy any day of the week. Needle point anyone? MMMMMmmmmm:thumbsup

I thought it may have been down to the place where I took them. At first when we were at a friends it was fine then we went to this house party and I couldnt relax and that was when it started to go bad.

Never heard of 'Ego Death' but can now say I have had it!

I have had some good trips on acid when me and my friends took in in some fields out in the middle of no where. That was great.

Why do you think they're illegal? The government can't have people expanding their minds...same goes for weed.

BTW, where the fuck do you get mushrooms? I've always wanted to try. Can i just grow my own, or is it a giant production?

Grow 'em in the basement -- feed 'em shit and keep 'em in the dark :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Years ago in California they sold them in plastic bags grown somewhere I suppose.

lol on the page they are advertising chuckie cheese...i just thought of what it would be liek to be on shrooms at a chuckie cheese...wow

tea from 80 is a good ride ...

My bf just sent me this article ...not sure what he was trying to say

I've never seen shrooms bring someone to the point of ego death.

OTOH i'd love a thumbprint, but that's almost impossible to find these days.

They are pretty easy to grow as long as you practice cleanliness. www.shroomery.org

But isn't one key part of the definition of a "good personality" is someone who has a lot of COMPASSION and EMPATHY? Basically, doesn't self-actuation need self-transcendence? And we're not talking about just empty motives but actual ACTION?

Yes indeed...

I myself love the late Terrence McKenna's take on shrooms...

aaaaaaaaaaaaah, shrooms are fun ... just lately i have been growing some thai dwarfs and - MAN - those shrooms are awesome ... not so "speedy" but hard on optics; with only 1,25grams (dried) i had hallucinations big time :thumbsup i am waiting for my columbian ones to show up now (which are said to be even more potential than the thais) ... i love shrooms coz they are a kind of "challenge" for a rational mind :2 cents:

and NO, DONT keep them in the dark! natural light is important! just dont expose it to direct sunlight and avoid temperatures above 35°C (when drying them do not exceed 40°C; best is steady 32°C in a constant airflow) ... i buy my growkits online but from what i read they dont ship to --- the USA :pimp

You all look like I'm tripping... :winkwink:

More from McKenna...

What the mushroom says about itself is this: that it is an extraterrestrial organism, that spores can survive the conditions of interstellar space. They are deep, deep purple - the color that they would have to be to absorb the deep ultraviolet end of the spectrum. The casing of a spore is one of the hardest organic substances known. The electron density approaches that of a metal.
Is it possible that these mushrooms never evolved on earth? That is what the Stropharia cubensis itself suggests. Global currents may form on the outside of the spore. The spores are very light and by Brownian motion are capable of percolation to the edge of the planet's atmosphere. Then, through interaction with energetic particles, some small number could actually escape into space. Understand that this is an evolutionary strategy where only one in many billions of spores actually makes the transition between the stars - a biological strategy for radiating throughout the galaxy without a technology. Of course this happens over very long periods of time. But if you think that the galaxy is roughly 100,000 light-years from edge to edge, if something were moving only one one-hundredth the speed of light - now that's not a tremendous speed that presents problems to any advanced technology - it could cross the galaxy in one hundred million years. There's life on this planet 1.8 billion years old; that's eighteen times longer than one hundred million years. So, looking at the galaxy on those time scales, one sees that the percolation of spores between the stars is a perfectly viable strategy for biology. It might take millions of years, but it's the same principle by which plants migrate into a desert or across an ocean.

I couldn't figure out whether the mushroom is the alien or the mushroom is some kind of technological artifact allowing me to hear the alien when the alien is actually light-years aways, using some kind of Bell non-locality principle to communicate. The mushroom states its own position very clearly. It says, "I require the nervous system of a mammal. Do you have one handy?"

And remember folks... the largest living organism on the planet is actually a mushroom... in Oregon...

think that from the archaic revival. great book. too bad younger trippers are more or less clueless about him it seems.

Yes, too bad. This kind of information and perspective tends to come back cycliclly, however.

btw all of my friends who we have been doing shroom trips weekly when were younger have now successfull business or working at very high possitions. so yes, do it! :)

Setting and mindset are the most important thing to have when you chose to look into yourself. I have found mushrooms to need more of a personal experience, not a great party drug so to speak. Out in the field sounds like a much more friendly landscape then some random party house.

This is no bullshit, pun intended;) I had a batch come thru here about a year ago that sent veterans off the edge on a couple caps, me included. I have played hard out in this world but have never experienced such a profound commitment like these last ones. Kynd and I finished off this one last big nasty looking cap a couple of months ago, Holy fuck what a ride.

Seems Lucy CSC was trying to save face and the cybin took it, maybe not true death in the sense, but to be moved to tears for no unknown reason, she was shedding a few skins.

Man I love psychedelics!!!! Uno check out the silk or pm me, love is in the air:winkwink:

Brilliant Thinking!

how much is she paid to do disgusting shit like that ?

extraterrestrial life form contact through oral consumption. genius!

I ate 13 of them before and hadn't been right ever since. They really open your mind up. If you want to hear a cool idea, i think wed designers should eat them.. You get some neat ideas.

I once shared some buds with a guy at a Dead show @ Shoreline, and he turned me onto some shrooms during the first set - by the time the band started the second set and they launched into Space, I was into one of the most beautiful and intense trips of my life.

I didn't sleep until around 10 the next morning and I still had a buzz... :stoned

It was at this show:



Clarence Clemons sat in on sax that night (RIP Big Man)... :)



...and my favorite Dead tune:





The Further Tour is in Monterey this weekend, and I am hoping for a miracle... :)
