      Synthetic psilocybin? They’re not just… Treating patients with what we know works already?

      Jesus you know what, I should know better. They’re gonna fuck this up until they find something that’s addictive that you have to take the rest of your life for it to work, or a treatment that forces you to take other drugs of theirs to treat its symptoms.

      The one amazing thing about psychedelics is they can be a literal cure that you take once, and capitalism abhors a cure. They’ll take a molecule out of it and fuck this whole thing up to make as big a profit as possible.
