Wav_function,

Source? I don’t think Sagan suggested the LSD use either way, that was John Lilly’s thing.

Sagan was interested in Lilly’s dolphin experiments because he was interested in developing inter species communication techniques, because he was really interested in how we could communicate with aliens.

Lilly was the psychonaut. He invented the sensory deprivation tank during the dolphin experiments, would use it on LSD to try to telepathically communicate with them, and gave the dolphins LSD a few times. Years after the dolphin experiments he went kind of nuts taking high dose ketamine and trying to communicate with aliens.

Wav_function,

Haha, read his book. He wrote about kholing himself and in that state would receive communications from the aliens that are in a higher dimension and would give him instructions to change the course of events in this world to save humanity… Or something like that.

Also at one point during that he fell into his pool and nearly drowned.

Yeah maybe it worked.

Wav_function,

Yeah I enjoyed the relaxed arm posture but trying to do fine line tracing and clicking in Photoshop made me give up on it

Wav_function,

Credit card sized amount every week, not day. And the data that went into that claim isn’t great:

Any amount of mp we consume is still terrible of course
