For the past year, I've been covering the stories of people in this realm about how they entered the community and what led them to encounter these compounds. However, I've never told my story of how these compounds entered my life. I found this Halloween to be something fitting, considering this story isn't what you'd read to your kids at night despite the happy ending. In hopes of switching some opinions in regard to what the human mind can bring to you and how sometimes these compounds can be an escape from what we believe to be a living hell.

What we thought to be a toad life-changing trip might be more than that, a new study claims! For quite some time, the psychonaut community has focused on inducing intense mystical experiences with Bufo Alvarius (Incilius Alvarius), capable of life-changing experiences and altering how we perceive life. However, new research proves that something else is happening to our brains while such experiences occur within our minds!

Join us this week to read a wonderful conversation with Terence McKenna. “Uh, it's actually UnTerry McCanny and The Ungoogleable Michaelangelo.” We spoke about art, philosophy, puppetry, teaching about hallucinogens humorously, the influence of Terence McKenna in his life, McKenna Monday at Psychedelic Assembly's library in Manhattan (P.S. They have pizza), the importance of philosophy in the psychedelic space, and what UnTerry McCanny would ask Terence if they could communicate. We also discussed the possibility of bringing new puppets to life! We found that Michaelangelo is currently accepting donations for a William Burroughs puppet! (It's just a secret between us, but I must say that the impersonation is immaculate!)
