    WTF, I was searching pubmed for papers about LSD and I found this abstract:
    Death is our most repressed consciousness, it inheres our condition as the primordial fear. Perhaps it was necessary that this angst be repressed in man or he would be hurled against the dark forces of nature. Modern ethos was built on this edifice, where the 'denial of death' while 'embracing one's symbolic immortality' would be worshipped, so this ideology simply overturned and repressed looking into the morass of the inevitable when it finally announced itself. Once this slowly pieced its way into all of life, 'death' would soon become a terminology in medicine too and assert its position, by giving a push to those directly dealing with the dying to shy away from its emotional and spiritual affliction. The need to put off death and prolong one's life would become ever more urgent. Research using psychedelics on the terminally ill which had begun in the 1950s and 1960s would coerce into another realm and alter the face of medicine; but the aggression with which it forced itself in the 1960s would soon be politically maimed, and what remained would be sporadic outpours that trickled its way from European labs and underground boot camps. Now, with the curtain rising, the question has etched itself again, about the use of psychedelic drugs in medicine, particularly psychedelic psychotherapy with the terminally ill. This study is an attempt to philosophically explore death anxiety from its existential context and how something that is innate in our condition cannot be therapeutically cured. Psychedelic use was immutably linked with ancient cultures and only recently has it seen its scientific revival, from which a scientific culture grew around psychedelic therapy. How much of what was threaded in the ritual and spiritual mores can be extricated and be interpreted in our own mechanized language of medicine is the question that nudges many.

    That's...not the kind of abstract you usually find on pubmed.

    I'm fairly certain this paper was written by someone on LSD

    I found some website while researching Y-haplogroups and its full of racist shit against white people.

    I didn't even know albino was a racist term for white people.

    In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.

    dear tao


    today i read a book called NATURAL SCIENCE.

    it had a picture of two ants standing very close together.

    above the picture it said ‘worker ants communicate by rubbing their antennae.’

    i wanted to communicate with you by rubbing our heads together but you weren't here so i rubbed my head against the wall instead and the wall said ‘i'm sad.’

    my eyes made 3 tears and i pet the wall until we both fell asleep.

    i got monster hunter on the wii u

    I was expecting skyrim instead I got a series of "outdoor" areas that could each fit in an 8X10 prison cell

    why on earth were you expecting skyrim?

    incorrectly informed as to the scope of the game

    didn't you play the demo?

    It doesn't matter I got it for a song

    it's... okay, but not really at all what I was expecting

    because it's a super limited handheld game, and they wonder why Wii U's dont sell

    The only real fault I am aware of with regards to Mister Davis is he allowed the movies to happen.

    I mean, Jim Davis created Garfield to get paid and that is what he did. Can't fault a man for that.

    Yeah. Bill Waterson is not a fan because Garfield is the opposite of Calvin and Hobbes, where Garfield is licensed and merchandised like woah.

    Calvin and Hobbes without Hobbes is kind of upsetting instead of funny, but I guess that's the point.

    He didn't just allow those to happen. He wrote them and acted as executive producer.

    I think his biggest fault is probably stretching himself too thin and not doing a whole lot of quality control on his own output.

    My old mouse was being weird, and losing power all the time (something to do with the cable), so I got in touch with Logitech and they were all "well we don't have any of that in stock, so would you like the next model up?"

    They've sent me this new mouse...

    It has like 5 billion buttons, a light show on its back, another light show if I click the button, and it looks like it was designed for use in the new TRON movie.

    I like.

    ...and of course, as always, Kill Hitler.

    @spacekungfuman‌

    I stopped playing BG2. Waiting for the patch now, which (if there is a kind god) will be released tomorrow.

    It just got too annoying having to stop all the time and hit the reveal icon, and the dumb pathing.

    You may want to turn off those lights.
    My mouse would light up if something kicked the PC out of sleep mode.
