1943: Albert Hofmann accidentally discovers the psychedelic properties of LSD. Hofmann, a Swiss chemist, was researching the synthesis of a lysergic acid compound, LSD-25, when he inadvertently absorbed a bit through his fingertips. Intrigued by the stimulating effects on his perception, Hofmann decided further exploration was warranted. Three days later he ingested 250 micrograms of LSD, embarking on the first full-fledged acid trip. In his autobiography, LSD, My Problem Child, Hofmann remembered his discovery this way: "I was forced to interrupt my work in the laboratory in the middle of the afternoon and proceed home, being affected by a remarkable restlessness, combined with a slight dizziness. At home I lay down and sank into a not unpleasant intoxicated-like condition, characterized by an extremely stimulated imagination. In a dreamlike state, with eyes closed (I found the daylight to be unpleasantly glaring), I perceived an uninterrupted stream of fantastic pictures, extraordinary shapes with intense, kaleidoscopic play of colors. After some two hours this condition faded away." The experience led Hofmann to begin experimenting with other hallucinogens, and he became an advocate of their use, in the arenas of both psychoanalysis and personal growth. He was critical of LSD’s casual use by the counterculture during the '60s. He referred to the drug as "medicine for the soul" and accused rank amateurs of hijacking it without understanding either its positive or negative effects. Hofmann was equally critical of what he considered society’s knee-jerk rejection of a drug that he believed is mostly beneficial and deserving of continued research. "I think that in human evolution it has never been as necessary to have this substance, LSD," he said at a symposium in 2006 marking the centennial of his birth. "It is just a tool to turn us into what we are supposed to be." Hofmann died of a heart attack at his home near Basel, Switzerland, in 2008. He was 102.

...Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Now here's Tom with the Weather."

Bicycle Day by Brian Blomerth (@pupsintrouble) published by @anthology is back in stock at Gosh! “Illustrator, musician and self-described “comic stripper” Brian Blomerth has spent years combining classic underground art styles with his bitingly irreverent visual wit in zines, comics, and album covers. With Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day, the artist has produced his most ambitious work to date: a historical account of the events of April 19, 1943, when Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann ingested an experimental dose of a new compound known as lysergic acid diethylamide and embarked on the world’s first acid trip. Combining an extraordinary true story told in journalistic detail with the artist’s gritty, timelessly Technicolor comix style, Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day is a testament to mind expansion and a stunningly original visual history.” #comics #anthologyeditions #illustration #bicycleday #lsd #cartooning #brianblomerth #alberthoffman #terrancemckenna #goshcomics (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B47XjSxBmwU/?igshid=prujqrkg2zb6

Lost this book over 2 yeas ago and found it right before my trip to the west coast. Starting from the beginning because why not. Sometimes we have to start from the beginning, I guess I seem to do that a lot. ;) Gordon Wasson was a banker(maybe CIA backed even, the theories are more complex then this book will tell) & honestly I care less about his vision and history but more about what Carl A P Ruck have to say and Hoffman too. Wasson opened the flood gates for white people to pounce down into Mexico and steal(appropriate) and reduce sacred, religious ceremony of the Mazatec people's to a mere trip. White people have a thing of 'ruining' sacred plants and medicine and profiting of them. Tobacco anyone? Ok, but in all honestly ethnomycology in all it forms is rad. Because we aren't taught anything about mushrooms in general, and coming to a realization that we have such a deep history of use with them for food, medicine and ceremony only makes my love and passion for them stronger. Because it's in our DNA and we share this with EVERYONE. Across continents and cultures. It's beautiful.
