Have any studies been done on this particular psychedelic? I'm curious.
Can we please leave the fucking toads alone?

This is an endangered species getting massively abused by the wellness "shaman" industry. It fucking sucks. Just use synthetic 5me0-dmt if you really must do a goofy vision quest larp.

HAMILTON,BUFOTENINE YOU NEED TO MAKE A VIDEO. xD

Anyone watch Hamiltons pharmacopeia

Every time I find one of these in my backyard with my dog, I have to spray my dog’s mouth out with the hose for 5 minutes. Psychedelic, but also very toxic.
Yeah, "psychedelic toad" sounds a lot more whimsical until you actually live somewhere they show up in the backyard

People really overthink drugs.

You don't need anything more than psilocybin and some weed from time to time.

Anything else is just unnecessary noise and introduces vulnerabilities to your Fortress of Mind.

Backdoor here, trapdoor here, tunnel there. Before you know it, your psyche collapses under all the brain neuroplasticity. Mind cannot form any shape at all.

Truly terrible thought so be careful my people. Don't malleableize yourself into a goo.

You don't need any of them. And that's your personal taste and isn't universal.

If you've only experienced those two then it's like you're sticking to black and white when there's a whole spectrum of other colours out there you're just discarding with no particularly good rationale. Plus you can screw yourself up with psilocybin and weed perfectly adequately.

The part I'm struggling with is where "neuroplasticity" turns into "your psyche collapses". That sounds more like a metaphor than an actual mechanism
Hamilton's Pharmacopia covers this topic, including an interview with the supposed author, then later corrected, then the true author revealed. Definitely worth checking out.

I'm guessing this is here because it was featured on an episode of Beef Season 2 from Netflix.
I've tried this before and it was an incredibly profound experience. Happy to answer questions if folks have any.
How a tiny self-published pamphlet apparently created a whole practice that was later documented as if it had some deeper historical tradition behind it
