      ​​@@UnconventionalMarketingOh it sure will, lmao I know from experience. This can completely rewire your brain and change your perception of reality for awhile especially if you took a lot at once. Can even go into a psychosis if you aren't careful best to have your closest best friend or someone you trust with you to help even. You migbt feel like you broke through the matrix and are on top of the world at the time of plateau of your trip and that in of itself can be bad depending on what that perception change causes you to act in bad ways like not being afraid of death which isn't necessarily great. I heard it was one drug they tested in the army or military or whatever years ago and JESUS talk about a bad trip being at war tripping nuts 😂

    I one time back in the day was on acid walking through campus and ran into my academic advisor. He stopped and we talked for like 20 minutes. It was monumental the mental strength it took to keep it together. As soon as he turned around to leave, I burst out laughing out of just pure exhilaration that I had acted normal. He turned around immediately and looked straight at me confused. 20 minutes of cool and I blew it at the finish line. I laughed out loud when Ben and Emil laughed maniacally after speaking with the fans.

He ml always thanked me for my 'thought provoking' inquiries (lmaoooo). And in the end, nobody knew. But now I am unwell. You did the right thing letting it go. Laughter shouldn't be kept sealed in.

I will forever remember that night, it was such a beautiful experience through and through, from the come up, to the peak and the come down. This just reminded me of that, so really, thank you for bringing up that memory.

      Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!

    so glad i found this video. i try to stay sober but the times i have done drugs be it weed, acid or shrooms i always ultimately come to the realization that the way i’m living my life is insufferable and that if i really want to feel fulfilled i need to let loose and enjoy the little things more. of course, it’s very easy to slip back in to my bad habits after an amazing trip. i’ve had social anxiety since i was a child and heaps of developmental trauma. talking to strangers often feels impossible. but this video reminded me of the revelations i had in those times- the way you guys were laughing, having fun and not giving a single care as to what anyone thought of you. i think that these are things we should do not only when we’re on mind altering drugs, but just in our day to day lives so we can embrace the simple beauty and joys of life regardless of what others think. thank you so much for the reminder, from today on i’m going to stop hiding and try to open myself up to the happiness and warmth life can bring ❤️

    Part at 18:20 was beautiful. This whole video reminds me of when I was 14-17, just have moved recently to a foreign country which I didn't speak the language in. Met my best friend at the time and my family situation was a big mess plus I was failing school because of the language barrier, I was spending a lot of my time with him. We'd walk around random cities, go into random high school parties and poke fun at people who were absorbed in life, smoke weed and laugh in the grocery stores at the food. We'd bike for 30 miles, climb abandoned buildings, listen to music, dance on top of the city view and chase girls.
    I eventually moved back, he got way into alcohol and harder drugs and I slowly realized he wasn't that good of a friend that I thought he was. People tried telling me, but I couldn't see it.

    watching them juggle between the guy with the sweater and the dog story is perfect.

    I don’t know why, but this was so beautiful to me, like genuinely peaceful and calming, your friendship, forgetting the task at hand, not believing the BS of pretentious speaking and stopping yourselves mid-sentence to re-orient the conversation, all the while peaking and enjoying chocolates, drinks, and corn nuts. It’s existential, it’s human, it’s the kind of lighthearted fun we should all strive to have.

    I damn teared up when Ben put his arm around Emil like that 🥹 just two guys experiencing pure, uninhibited childlike joy in friendship

    This video is so much more than two guys on acid going shopping. This is what I feel like we’re missing out on. Just time with each other, kindness, laughter. And wait, no phones in their faces constantly. Man this is humorous and beautiful at the same time xD

    It's crazy because the way that they're communicating reminds me of me on a normal day completely sober - especially ben

      They’re on a very very small amount of acid if they are like 50ug or less because like the dude above me said it’s not easy speaking on acid let alone having a proper conversation

      @@vincentscarfo People can talk and have conversations even up to like 300ug decently fine depending on the person.
      I'd reckon they're at about 100ug, which is a standard tab anyway

    I liked how someone filmed from a distance and they had their mics on. It was a good vlog.
