Tea is good because it somewhat relieves the upset stomach that is possible. Other than that, eating them is the only vehicle for entry I am aware of that is useful.

I saw this story going around and it's irritating to say the least. This person has a history of drug addiction and mental illness. It's a shame shit like this even gets mentioned in the ongoing discussions surrounding psychedelics IMO

I imagine if we keep this discussion going it is going to be moderated. But speaking from experience it is a bad idea to personally intravenously inject yourself with anything.

Had a pair. Interesting leather- looks kinda like a textured suede, but a lot more durable.

I figured it would be super thick and tough.

I was looking to see if I had been near Medellín but my google timeline doesn't go back that far. They used to give me a different mobile phone way back when. I don't remember for sure, but I remember being in the jungle sort of in that area. I know they told me it was extremely dangerous there, and I also got bit on the hand by a wild dog trying to feed it on that job. There were times when we'd be driving and they would tell me to duck down so we didn't get hassled by the military at check points.
I don't remember there being any hippos.

Not super thick; I'd say similar to a heavier cowhide. It is pretty tough, though. Relatively soft- the boots broke in fairly quickly. Every once in a while I think about getting another pair.

This is pretty weird and idk how I feel about it. Seems kind of icky.

https://www.cnet.com/news/microsoft-patent-details-tech-that-could-turn-dead-people-into-ai-chatbots/It's an interesting technology. But, one that would easily be used in an unethical manner. I find it creepy as fuck…

Yeah, I'm not into this idea at all, because as you say, creepy as fuck.

Neal Stephenson wrote a very long, detailed novel about this called The Fall, or Dodge in Hell.
