I wake up, dialectical materialism continues to make perfect sense, I celebrate by getting high
The real shit is taking 1-2g of psilocybin, not enough to withdraw but enough to get into the psychedelic headspace of pattern recognition, and go hiking. All of the dialectics of that ecosystem stand out so much and you can plainly see how it evolved.
This is the best kind of shit. Something about being out in nature is just incredibly affirming of a holistic, "everything connected" worldview, made of overlapping, layered ecological systems and dialectical tensions. I also feel the same way about ontic structural realism.
:rat-salute-2: For rela though, I am downloading several of the audiobooks to get me through work this week. Thank you comrade.
I don't smoke so naturally I understand that every thing has its own unique inherent essence and is in no ways defined by its relationship to other things
It always makes sense, but it does hit different in different states of mind
The phrase I got to was, " being in an altered state of mind I am meta cognitively aware of the qualia of my experiences in ways I am not normally, and being able to contrast this with my unaltered perception should provide some useful understanding"
At that point people simply stopped texting me back and that is probably the correct choice
