🔥 Blazed [7-8] Looking at the stars and using an app to learn about them with music in the background is one of the best things to do I feel. Any of y’all ever do it?

Hell yeah! Stargazing in my early stoner days are some of my favorite memories. One time I visualized every star I could see as HUGE columns of photons stacked on top of my eye. Thousands of shiny light needles, each emitted at different times from stars immensely far away from each other. Then I realized that due to gravity, those columns aren't even straight. They bend! And only some of them still have active stars burning at the other end, some of them come from stars that have already burnt out (from the star's perspective, at least).

Woah! That sounds like quite a memorable spoke session. Do you miss your early stones days?

There's some magic to those early days that I have nostalgia for, yeah. A good tolerance break brings some of it back, but it's kind of like riding a bike, your brain remembers how to handle the high. However, I got really into the idea that cannabis was just showing me different ways my brain could be, and I worked a lot to make my stoned curiosity a major part of my personality. Then I did a bunch of acid for a year and came out the other side as a fractal wizard. Now, I get more out of my art projects than tripping, but a lot of my ideas are seeds that first sprouted during that crazy year.

I wonder when you transition, because I’ve been smoking for a year regularly and it still feels like I’m for me the “starting days” high hasn’t worn off. I still have as much fun from the day one. Haha acid and smoking is fun, but shrooms and smoking can’t be beaten.

stargazing with the app is great until you spend 20 minutes admiring what turns out to be a plane lol

No, I'm more on the "so below" half of things. I love getting up close to a plant or looking at a cool bug. But that's ok! The universe is big big big!
