#California Might Legalize #MagicMushrooms
A bill to legalize #psychedelics is on a trip to California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office https://theintercept.com/2023/09/08/california-psychedelics-bill/

No later than October 12th, we will know whether California will be decriminalizing the possession, cultivation, and sharing (NOT sales) of non-synthetic DMT, psilocybin, and mescaline. This specifically does not include peyote.

Could psychedelic trips inspire faster climate action?

> A growing body of research suggests that psychedelic experiences could improve our connectedness to nature and inspire faster action on the climate crisis. So, should top decision-makers be experimenting?

Psychedelics induce hypersynchrony in multiple brain regions, a state of increased coordination and communication among neurons. This state, measured by electroencephalography (EEG), is associated with enhanced creativity, insight, and mystical experiences. The researchers suggest that psychedelics could treat mental disorders, such as depression and addiction, by facilitating neural plasticity and rewiring. #Psychedelics #Hypersynchrony #MentalHealth

How #consciousness may rely on brain cells acting collectively – new #psychedelics research on rats https://theconversation.com/how-consciousness-may-rely-on-brain-cells-acting-collectively-new-psychedelics-research-on-rats-211685

A case study found similarities between near-death experiences and those induced by 5-MeO-DMT, a powerful substance in plants and animals. The study compared subjective reports from a woman who had both types of experiences and found shared features such as ego dissolution, unity, and bliss. This suggests that 5-MeO-DMT could be a useful tool for investigating the neural and psychological mechanisms of NDEs and their effects on well-being. #NDE #5MeODMT #psychedelics https://www.psypost.org/2023/08/case-study-explores-the-similarities-between-a-near-death-experience-and-psychedelic-experiences-induced-by-5-meo-dmt-167872?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=HariTulsidas%2Fmagazine%2FMind+and+Matter

@spacehobo Got links?

I've been to burningman, and it kinda restored my faith in humanity.
Loads of cool people, including americans 😜

I've not been for a while sadly, and I miss it.
Yes, it is not an efficient use of resources, but then nor are hacking festivals talking about climate change. There were some interesting people talking about interesting subjects like #psychedelics, #permaculture, #opensource and other subjects.

An interesting discussion about "mental" #health (AKA #psychology) Tim Ferriss talked about his past when he was "hating himself" & "tolerating pain" such as "the pain threshold" whilst exercising.

This got me thinking about free forms of non-competitive #Dancing. The point of free-form dancing is to experience pleasure.

In Iowa and elsewhere, bans on widely discredited 'conversion therapy' become a conservative target - PBS NewsHour https://apple.news/AD-puU1IPTtetQd6KR_KluA #psychedelics were once used as tools oppression in an attempt to convert queer people and subvert other groups struggling with basic civil rights.

I'm going to be babysitting someone taking their first heroic dose of #shrooms this weekend, and I'd like to ensure that I'm well-prepared.

Is there anything extra I should do to prepare for caretaking someone taking 5 grams of dried #GoldenTeacher #cubensis #mushrooms ?

Difficulty Level:
They rarely use #psychedelics & barely felt 3.5 grams during a previous #trip of #PsychedelicMushrooms I sat with them through.

#HarmPrevention #psilocybin

What a trip!
Finished listening to the audiobook read by the author. “How to Change Your Mind” by Michael Pollan.
