Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you might jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structure and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing. They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong.  —Terence McKenna

Everything you know is wrong. Black is white. Up is down and short is long. Everything that you used to think was so important, doesn't matter.

You don't even need the drugs. Just detox from pop culture and mass media.

This happened to me last Tuesday when I forgot to pay my phone bill on time. The floating disembodied head of Colonel Sanders started yelling it.

About 10 years ago someone spiked my weed with a strong, unknown hallucinogen. My ego dissolved. There was no boundary between me and the rest of the universe. I contemplated infinity. I saw everything as reverberating patterns of perfect geometric shapes and understood intuitively how everything in nature is rigidly defined by mathematics. To this day I still remember and cherish the lessons revealed to me in that span of a few hours.

So my question is... am I entitled to compensation from the government?
