    I’m surprised all of you feel this way, sure you’re not all just growing up?

    TikTok, Twitter, YouTube, illegal anime streams, illegal tv show streams, illegal movie streams, illegal PDFs of books, any type of music you can think of, looking at any type of art you can think of, reading people’s blogs, listening to podcasts, watching sports, etc. etc.

    I recommend listening to the Joe Rogan Experience if anybody is getting bored of the internet. And try DMT while watching it

            This fucking bald imbecile indeed ruined like half the niche psych online communities due to his inane ramblings; he’s also spread falsehoods far and wide (like “DMT is produced by the human body in potentially psychoactive quantities” - it’s fucking not, it’s produced in minutes amounts likely as a neurotransmitter production’s side effect; or also “DMT is released when we die” - also complete bullshit)

            And as for the experience, it really is profound. I like to link this article and this follow-up, both by Nick Sand, for newcomers

              Has he ruined any communities? The ones I frequent rarely mention him except to make fun of him

              I feel like McKenna has a more negative effect only because people try to cite his theories as if it were done under rigorous scientific methods

                I’m probably exaggerating a bit, but it has led to an influx of very vocal new members sometimes fairly deaf to discussion to many of them
