    The speed of light is actually the speed of causality. If an object traveled faster than the speed of light then effects would pre-date their causes.
    So, if you get trippy with a tab of LSD traveling faster than the speed of light, the hallucination will start before you drop the LSD.
    That’s Einstein’s physics.

    LSD is one of the best examples of how games can reach high art. The creativity in this game is seriously impressive. This is psychedelic levels of imagination & creativity. It is this kind of creative work that has always drawn me to video game design. To invent stuff as imaginative and as beautiful as this.

    Oh, what things Consciousness can dream up.

    I can imagine the LSD world as existing as its own realm of Consciousness/life. Imagine that instead of human life, instead of being born as a human on Earth, life was about being born in LSD. This really shows you the power of Consciousness. To a human this kind of life seems unappealing, but this is the kind of stuff God thrives on. It is an entirely new kind of conscious experience, free from the mundane constraints of human life.

    Psychedelics like psilocybin mushrooms are being studied for helping with mental health issues, but their effects vary, so caution and professional guidance are essential. Always consult a doctor before trying any treatment, and be aware of your local laws. Your safety comes first .

    Sounds like everyone who has done LSD continues to do other drugs even though they claim it changed their lives for the better. Sounds like chasing your tail to me?
