    Huxley died tripping balls on his death bed. What a king.

      I feel like tripping balls is what death is like, honestly hope I know I'm dying when I go and not in my sleep...... God it's gonna be a ride if I'm not mistaken....!

      Thank you I appreciate it a lot. I would like to post more but unfortunately these types of videos can take a while. If you have any suggestions for content that I could produce quicker feel free to let me know. Thanks again :)

      How can I contact you?
      Do you have a platform for fans besides YT?

      ​@@nielsdeleeuw2477Unfortunately I dont for the channel. All I have is a Substack, so I'd recommend trying that. I think my personal Twitter is connected to it as well so worst comes to worst give me a follow on there.

      Well, I dont have social media for personal reasons.
      I do learned what Substack is and I think I'm gonna give it a try.
      I can always message you on YT.

    Man...fantastic video! I can't say I learned anything new ( this is a subject I've been reading about for decades and have used many psychedelics over the years) but this is a great video for those wanting to learn the basics of psychedelics and a bit of their history! The music and films you used in this video truly made it enjoyable for me to go back and hear these stories again! So happy I found your channel !!! And have now watched a few videos. The death one was one of the best I've seen so far...when I seen you'd be talking about Hitchens in it you had me! The one on William S Burroughs meeting Kurt was good too! Not a huge Nirvana fan but they are OK. Born in the 1980s and growing up in the 90s they was everywhere! But a huge fan of the beat generation ( be cool to see more videos of them guys...alot of marital there!) At home ...in bed...on a rainy day with a bit of a cold. So been watching your videos. Thanks for a new and refreshing look into the world of psychedelics!!! I really enjoyed how you put it together so even a older head like me could find it exciting! Keep up the brilliant work! This and a few other channels is why I even use the TH-cam!

    "Cain's Book," by Alexander Trocchi, is an underground classic. If this genre interests you, do not fail to read Trocchi's book.

    You’re creating probably the best videos on this site - so much so I have to hold off watching to savour it until the next one.

    I love books about drugs. IDK, they're just fun to read. Now obviously I don't condone the use. At the same time, I think we should have people read books about these topics.

      To me, books exist in part to explore things other than our own experiences. In the same way I can enjoy reading about flying on a dragon, I can enjoy reading about chasing a dragon

    Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was apparently about what a drawing one of their children (Julian Lennon?? ) had created and explained as being, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. I’m positive The Beatles made music about their experiences with drugs but Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was about a child’s drawing. Is it possible drug experimentations were mixed into the lyrics? Maybe, maybe not. Just wanted to point out this interesting bit of trivia.

    Haven't yet seen the video, but I am really hoping Naked Lunch is included. A novel one critic describes as "Burroughs selling ringside seats to Hell"

    • @joem5615
      @joem5615 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not many ppl will agree but Junky is a better novel and more raw. Naked lunch is cool, alot of it is about magic

    To be fair, in modern society, introspection and critical thinking is considered perversion.

    what's the song at the very beginning please anyone? it isn't the top song in the description

  • @KattMurr

    Um, you do know "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" is not about LSD. It was based on a picture Julian Lennon drew, don't you?

    • @QdMaster
      @QdMaster หลายเดือนก่อน

      Somewhat correct, however it's my understanding that the drawing reminded him of an lsd trip, thus the song, and during the time of that song they were taking alot of lsd.... So I do not for one second believe the song had nothing to do with lsd...... 🤷

    I only trust channels who DO condone drugs.
