The LSD paradox

@McGillus

Its a great statement for anyone battling addiction. The drugs will rob you off the memory eventually. You'll just remember taking the drugs. Any highlights or downfalls will be attributed to the drugs and not you. I'm my language the word addicted translates to verslaafd, which in the literal sense means "to be enslaved". Got curious. Started digging a bit. Thought I'd share. A single word for being captured and forced to work for nothing does not exist in the modern dutch language. Only in a sentence like "to be made into a slave. forced into slave labor." Enslaved in dutch probably goes back to the root of enthralment. The dutch word for this also does not exist anymore. It now means "betovering" or enchantment. Was the slave class of old being held docile with a healthy dose of drugs and alcohol, and trippy religious rituals to keep them subservient to the upper class who provided it?

In an interview, he said the reason he pitches high is because it takes away the fear and pressure of winning or loosing. The older I get, the more sense that makes to me.

The music chosen for this video makes it hard to listen to the story being told.

I did something like this at a casino about 18 years ago . Playing roulette on acid I was betting on the numbers and hitting every time . I remember the friend i was with saying like wow how do you keep doing that ? I told her i can see the numbers. I wasn't betting big , i was only betting the min bet but i had hit every time for about 20 times straight . Someone from the casino came and talk to me and basically was trying to get me off of the table. Very strange experience. Flash forward to last year. And i took some acid at the same casino and tried again. This time i bet big 100 dollars on one play . And guess what , I lost 😂😂

I would have liked to have met this man.

I was surprised to learn a few years ago that this actually happened. I always thought it was a joke based on him being listed in the newspaper box scores as "Ellis, D."

Man, that music though...

What a legend.

Yes, I remember that. It didn't seem that remarkable to me, given the number of times I attended games after dropping acid. His real memorable game, to any Reds fan of the day, was when he gave an interview talking about how he was going to dominate and destroy the Big Red Machine in his next outing. The game was played in Cincinnati. I never heard such boos from the Reds fan, as the boos they/we rained down on him. As it turned out, the Reds absolutely destroyed him. He was finally pulled from the game in the first inning without getting a single out.

Aw man its like my German friend says. "Some people need to be on drugs to be there best selves"

It didn't work for me. I kept hitting batters.

Whole league was on lsd back then

He was using drugs to combat the overwhelming self centered fear of failure. His words not mine

The real life "Hoops Mccann"

not only a no hitter, but pitching to jimmy hendrix

He did acid back to back the second time that effect is not as strong I know from experience

I never thought lsd had gone to the big leagues

Great moments in psychedelic history. In the summer of 1971, the Ohio State Patrol started an innovative program to demonstrate the evils and harmful effects of marijuana. They scheduled a series of events around the state, where volunteer subjects/participants would drive go-karts around a highly modified course with safety barriers and protective measures all around the course. There would be 3 groups. (1) People driving unimpaired. (2) People who did not smoke marijuana, but who would for the test. (3) People who regularly used marijuana, and who smoked for the test. This required a waiver from the state government, of course. I don't know how they dealt with the feds. The first event was held in Cincinnati, with reporters from the Cincinnati Enquirer and the Cincinnati Post present. Group 2, the people who didn't use marijuana, but did for the event, did horribly. Group 1, the unimpaired drivers, did admirably. But Group 3, the regular users, smoked them (no pun intended), with by far the best lap times, and no accidents. The rest of the tour was canceled.
