Do you know Terrence McKenna? He has the idea, that primates ate psilocybin-rich shrooms which enhanced their evolution.
I can totally understand his thinking.
One good shroom or LSD trip and you can achieve thougts which would come up years later or never.
This stuff helped me a lot with dealing with depression and generelly getting to know my subconcious better :)
honestly it’s kinda starting to seem like human history was 50% shaped by wanting to get zooted out our minds with the lads, and 50% wanting to turn the child-eating monsters in the woods into thin red paste and decorate our homes with their bones.
there’s a hypothesis that agriculture was straight up invented because we wanted more grain to make beer.
Getting high is part of all mammals.
Elephants removing roofs of clay huts to steal and drink booze in India. Dolhpins biting on Starfishes to get high on their venom.
Reindeers eating Amanita Muscaria mushrooms to get a GABAergic blast.
It’s all about those sweet neurotransmitters. Our whole body is made to use any kind of pleasure (external like food, drugs or internal like sport, sex or just getting your shit done) to be able to move on. Without pleasure, mammals wouldn’t repeat anything. Why would they? Nothing would be fun at all.
So yeah, I believe you, that more crops were sown just to be able to brew more beer. I would do that too, even though I don’t really enjoy ethanol. But friends and family do. When they’re happy, I’m happy too :)
