yes
Yeah and the other might be Albert Hoffman maybe?
By the reference to cocaine it's probably Freud.
Good call. I was just thinking the trippy background def doesn't happen with cocaine
Wait, what fucking kind of cocaine does that?
I think the coloured stuff is supposed to be the room background, not hallu.
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.
As someone who has done half a g in a single snort, I can assure you no amount of cocaine would do that.
Aldous Huxley would like a word.
Down-voting because it implies Sagan behaved like a cop.
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.
