Every so often some synapse decides to zap my brain and I think about the "black folk ain't having no Bernie" tweet.
Was it a tweet? I can't remember anymore. But I still remember that line. Just at random. Apropos of nothing. Not even in a "hey remember that?" sorta way. Instead it just fires off and disappears almost as quickly as it appeared.
How about y'all?
this one time a long time ago I had taken shrooms, and at one point in the night I was outside with my friend and I was pacing around really quickly ranting about something, and my friend says something like "bro you're too much right now, I need to sit down, do you want to take a seat with me?" and I put my face right up against his like as close as I could get without touching, and I just go "If we slow down, we die."
"If we slow down we die" has been randomly popping into my head for over a decade.
Every psychedelic trip has its key phrase.
One phrase characterises the trip.
