Is that supposed to be carl sagan?

fossilesque@mander.xyz on 20 Apr 20:29 next collapse

yes

KingJalopy@lemm.ee on 20 Apr 21:10 next collapse

Yeah and the other might be Albert Hoffman maybe?

By the reference to cocaine it’s probably Freud.

KingJalopy@lemm.ee on 20 Apr 22:00 next collapse

Good call. I was just thinking the trippy background def doesn’t happen with cocaine

stevedice@sh.itjust.works on 21 Apr 03:04 collapse

Wait, what fucking kind of cocaine does that?

lvxferre@mander.xyz on 21 Apr 03:07 next collapse

I think the coloured stuff is supposed to be the room background, not hallu.

stevedice@sh.itjust.works on 21 Apr 03:10 collapse

Checks out. Coke would definitely make you paint the room like that.

It’s not a kind of cocaine, it’s an amount of cocaine.

stevedice@sh.itjust.works on 21 Apr 20:00 collapse

As someone who has done half a g in a single snort, I can assure you no amount of cocaine would do that.

He apparently wrote an essay about it

Truly a man ahead of time.

Diddlydee@feddit.uk on 20 Apr 21:03 next collapse

Aldous Huxley would like a word.

yesman@lemmy.world on 21 Apr 16:18 next collapse

Down-voting because it implies Sagan behaved like a cop.

Dasus@lemmy.world on 21 Apr 17:24 collapse

Sagan was known for weed, but prolly took took acid and shrooms, whereas Nietzsche used coke.

Cocaine is purely dopaminergic, which makes you energetic, but emotionally “cold” compared to serotonin.

Just switch Nietzsche to Terence McKenna and then the meme is correct.

Sounds like Nietzsche is a lot like me. We both snorted stuff.
