That's enough for at least a decent beater of a used car, or a badass desktop setup that'd be way more engaging and have more things to do with it. Or up to three and a half of the new M2 architecture macbooks

I took an attention psychology course in university as an undergrad and the professor told us about the baseball legend Dock Ellis, who dropped lsd and threw a no hitter game. I decided to drop acid an hour before the final exam in that course to emulate the same success and ended up with a 100% score.

Edit: the moment I saw the power cord tethered to the Apple VR goggles I knew it was going to be dogshit.

i knew someone who did this but for a good golf game. i did this once for some wow dungeons and it was fun but it was a disaster otherwise. definitely an outdoor drug

Exploration is ill-advised.
Thing is about mind altering substances is that they make it very difficult to stick to a plan or control your impulses.

but if you spend decades training a machine learning algorithm ahead of time to predict what impulses your brain is going to have.... (the model immediately throws an exception and predicts you're going to spend 278 of the next 24 hours playing KSP without eating or even breathing in the meantime, and the algorithm is so poisoned by gamers that regardless of what you're into the basilisk demands installation of a mod to give :jeb: big floppy boobs)

One of the funnest parts of doing psychedelics is going outside and looking up at the night sky and then having an extensional crisis when you realize how BIG everything is and how tiny and insignificant you are.

Many, many years ago, long before I ever did any cool drugs, I read a goons description of what acid is like, and it was something like "lsd: go outside and look at flower. Isn't that crazy??? Now go look at a tree. WOAH!!"
I wish I could remember who wrote it because it's so perfect.
