    The specificity is what got me too. DMT produces a cast of characters that shift... The level of consistency is what flipped it for me, into a genuinely open scientific question. What 'real' means starts to feel like the wrong frame....

    I love the conscious experience of life. I love my wife and our children, and I love being human and that I didn't pull the fruit fly card!
