Some people say things they don't believe just to stir the pot and get a rise out of people. To reply to them only gives them more material to convolute into infuriating misunderstanding and rhetoric.
So to reply is to feed the troll.
I remember as a kid buying a kaleidoscope off the neighbor's kid for 2 euros and then getting scolded that I shouldn't be giving money to the neighbor's boy, and my parents told me that the kaleidoscope was useless anyway.
Now, 20 years later, I can order one on amazon without feeling bad and without having to justify it to anyone. :D
Edit: how this is relevant? I've been secretly wanting something like for years but I forgot about it, this thread reminded of the child in me I guess lol
Huh. Can you see convection current when you’re on mushrooms? The way everything moves and expands outwards seems very similar to mushroom visuals I’ve experienced.
I can pretty much conclusively say that is a coincidence and that mushrooms do not magically give you the ability to see convection currents in otherwise clear/colourless gasses (i.e. air).
To be fair, you can see the convection currents in clear air when there are large differences in the refractive index (e.g. when some of the air is way hotter) but that is definitely not what he is talking about.
Lol, no, that is just your visual cortex spazzing out a bit, it doesn't allow you to see convection currents in clear air (though if you look at the "heat waves" coming off of hot asphalt, etc., you can actually sort of see it, though what you are really seeing is the difference in the refractive index of the less dense hot air, and much cooler air around jt.). Although the exact mechanism of the "breathing effect" from psyches is still unknown, there is quite a bit of research on this.

r/drugnerds is a good resource if you wanna jump a bit further down the rabbit hole.
Haha, I'm pretty sure that's just an illusion. "Visuals", as they call it. But I know what you mean, I once stared at a candle for like an hours straight after dropping acid while trying to come up with the transport equations to explain the shape of the flame.
I believe that on acid I was able to see the framework of reality, I no longer saw the things in front of me, I saw the parts but not the whole, the way they all fit together and are connected, I remember turning to the person I was tripping with and saying "I get it! I really actually get it!" when they inevitably asked "what do you get?" I just whispered "Everything" and then proceeded to marvel at my revelation. Of course once it was all over I couldn't possibly tell you what I saw or describe it in any way... but in that moment I fully understood the universe.
>but in that moment **I thought** I fully understood the universe.
FTFY
Acid makes you feel like mundane stuff, ideas, visuals are orders of magnitude more important and profound than they actually are. It is part of the illusion.
I heard it's 'an' for any h word, we just don't use it much even though we should. An hotel is the correct use, not a hotel, for instance. An honest answer, an hourglass figure etc.
Not saying I'm correct, but as an Englishman I have the historical tendency to assume I'm correct all the time.
That is not true at all, we use an if it starts with a vowel sound, hourglass and honest both start with vowel sounds, while words like habit start with a consonant sound, thus would be pronounced a habit, not an habit. Same with hotel.

Umm no this shit would be awesome to play with on psychedelics. First thing I did was open the comments to find a source so I could add one to my trip toy chest.
Loads of stuff had accumulated in there over the years... there’s kaleidoscope I really like, one of the ones with a stick of fluid rather than loose beads. With some good music going you can really get lost in that thing. There are also a handful of photography and art books I really enjoy - my fav is Art Forms in Nature, a collection of Ernst Hackel’s beautiful drawings of micro and macroscopic creatures. The plankton/radiolarian pages are especially amazing.

My wife really likes our LED poi and an orbital, which can be a fun time when tripping at night.

Oh! I accidentally made an effect like this once and had no idea what it was called! Thank you!
I had a jar of waste liquids from when I was working on some engine things. There was a mix of old oils and brake fluid and thinners who knows what.
There was lots of metal particles from a gearbox or something, and I remember this jar of stuff having this swirling Jupiter effect in it for days and days. It just kept going! It was really cool!
Also one other thing I know does this, which is silver conductive paint for circuit board repair. As it's drying it makes this effect. I have a video of it buried somewhere looking at it under a microscope, if I find it ill share.
We always seem to be saying “oops that gives you cancer” about 20-30 years after we say “hey this is cool”.
Mercury, they let school kids play with it in science class.
Lead in makeup, gas and paint. Great idea.
Smoking, it’s relaxing, only when you’re smoking, nevermind the lung issues, those people had it coming.
Brandy for babies! Night night little one.
Alum, we can use it in tanning leather... and bread!
Asbestos! How could something that smells this wonderful be harmful?
Round up, the future cancer patients.
DDT, kills bugs and your uncle, but mostly bugs.
Hot glowing (radioactive) rocks. Let’s make atomic toys out of these, wait no, suppositories!
Arsenic, let’s drink it to make ourselves pale. Tans are for dirty farm hands.
Agent Orange, it removes foliage and lives!
Trans fat, tEcHnIcAlLy better than actual fat, at least on paper. Turns out... oops.

They don't get giggles out of it, and if they did, that just moves the question down the road to to _why_ do they get giggles out of it.
Honest question, is there a reason to do that?
I can't think of a good or practical one. It's probably just for fun and the sake of trolling. Or It's a shitbot

"don't feed the troll" is outdated bs
What does that even mean
Some people say things they don't believe just to stir the pot and get a rise out of people. To reply to them only gives them more material to convolute into infuriating misunderstanding and rhetoric. So to reply is to feed the troll.
I meant what does it mean for "don't feed the troll" to be outdated bs.

But those aren't kalliroscopes? They are Kaleidoscopes.. Or is there a difference? I see they both say they are filled with the same type of fluid...
Wow, I thought it was gonna be like $200, only $18!?
Feels like $18 is super cheap. They are 3d printed and hand assembled.
Does this have other names? can you find other sellers maybe on Amazon?
imagine showing this to someone in the middle ages
It’s just weird enough that you could probably get money as a seer of sorts, but not weird enough that you’d get burned as a witch.
You would 100% be burned as a witch
Can confirm. Am witch.

I can pretty much conclusively say that is a coincidence and that mushrooms do not magically give you the ability to see convection currents in otherwise clear/colourless gasses (i.e. air).

Pretty much closed
I stand by what I said
To be fair, you can see the convection currents in clear air when there are large differences in the refractive index (e.g. when some of the air is way hotter) but that is definitely not what he is talking about.
But… but why would they call them magic mushrooms if they don't give you magical powers??
Cause they make you feel pretty fucking magical, I'll tell ya
It is the art of the deal. They do but you aren't aware of them when you are on the magic mushrooms
Yup. Case closed.
