Doors of Perception:
Aldous Leonard Huxley (26 July 1894 – 22 November 1963) was an English writer and one of the most prominent members of the famous Huxley family. He spent the later part of his life in the United States, living in Los Angeles from 1937 until his death in 1963. Best known for his novels and wide-ranging output of essays, he also published short stories, poetry, travel writing, and film stories and scripts.
Huxley was a humanist and pacifist, but was also latterly interested in spiritual subjects such as parapsychology and philosophical mysticism. He was also well known for advocating and taking hallucinogens and is considered by many to be the "spiritual father" of the hippie movement.[citation needed]
By the end of his life Huxley was considered, in some academic circles, a leader of modern thought and an intellectual of the highest rank.[1]

So here's something I've been reluctant to post. When I trip, I feel guilty and terrible about affiliate marketing because believe it or not, it's just not noble. At its core, it's dishonest and takes advantage of weaknesses most humans have. It doesn't HAVE to be, but the truth of the matter is that it is, 99% of the time.
Merry Christmas Everyone! :xmas-smiley-016:
Totally agree with you. That is real perspective.
You can also realize that we need to do things to survive.
If you want to change, then you can do it.
I always thought the best people to take acid are accountants, and lawyers and people that think the world is just real fine. I think for those people acid will give them real perspective.

Bluebudha: You've got to make the compromise. Heaps of cash? Or just a little bit of cash and being fine with yourself.
I'm never going to be a super rich bawler because most of the stuff I push is single purchase, non recurring stuff that my target demographic actually wants. Mostly consumer goods, like Tshirts n stuff.
I rarely feel guilty about what I sell, and the only time I do is when I make a bit of extra dosh for myself by pushing something I'm not really cool with, like loans or "health" supplements... Even then, I'm not too good, because it probably comes through in my ads that I don't actually believe in the shit.
Lazy Hippy: If you drink diet shakes and are used to the flavour of those, San Pedro can be made to taste a bit more like them.
Blend it up with some vanilla froghurt, honey, and whatever sweet berry is in season that isn't strawberry. I get blackberries that I can pick off the fence of the local railway line, or cherries. Tastes a little better than it's regular old shitty self.
Jenzkc: Sanpedro is awesome! Pity that the shit takes so long to grow. And tastes foul. And leaves way too many fucking needles in your fingertips because you're already pretty fucked by the time you decide to cut your open and prepare it... >_>

Nice, after shroom shakes in Thailand (and a bit of research), I'd figured that a shake would be the best way to go and we've got shit loads of blackberries growing here... just need to find the time now.
Fixed.
If I jam everything into my closet and close the door before it topples over, and then somebody else comes by, opens the closet door and gets hurt because my stack of fleshlights fell on them, it's *my* fault - even though technically it's not my fault. I could say they should open closet doors carefully, or need a faster reaction time, or 100 other excellent, logical excuses.

Haad Rin, Koh Phangan.. big neon mountain of mushroom madness. (Just don't have a shake then skin up on the beach the night before a full moon party.... big big big mistake, I was so fuckin lucky they didn't search that one pocket!)
Did someone say Koa Phangan magic mountain shakes? Gotta love that sweet strawberry flavor....
I've been hunting for a clip of Bill Bailey describing it, as he does a much better job than I can... but yeah pretty boring. Staring at the wall/floor/whatever for hours engrossed in the patterns the bits of dust/dirt/anything makes, so fascinating but so boring too.
It's something everyone should try at least once though - truly changes the way you perceive things.
