> The quest for spiritual enlightenment – as with much else in San Francisco – is fuelled by the desire to increase productivity
Uhm... really? I have strong doubts that seeking spiritual enlightenment is motivated by increasing productivity, or that those who microdose are predominantly doing it for spiritual purposes at all. To my mind, those things are in diametrical opposition. What is the author even trying to say with this?
- Bartweiss 9y agoMicrodosing is specifically about avoiding the sort of active, vision-causing effects that normal use of acid has. I'm really not sure how "making sure to not have a religious experience" could be part of the quest for spiritual enlightenment. It feels like the sort of line that sounds pithy as long as you don't worry about accuracy.
