Some Banjulung people also respect shrooms traditionally. There as psilocybin mushrooms through most of the non-arid parts of Australia.

Indigenous Australians really really like drugs. There are rules about how often you can trip, and with whom, but there are magic shrooms over much of Oz, as well as plants with opioid-like effects, such as pituri.

I lived backing onto a roundabout for 10 years. Hoons would do massive donuts at speed, at all hours, often spearing off the road. One neighbour had cars through his fence twice, across from him had a retaining wall that took a few cars o

There are a lot of hayfever allergens in Australia. I have to wonder if that has something to do with it, or whether it's got something to do with how kids today don't seem to get covered in dirt.

You forgot to mention that koalas' fear response is to climb the fool cuddling them with their 5cm claws while urinating clamydia infested urine into the wounds. I would not cuddle one, but if you do for God's sake make sure it&#x

My surname is Foster, and on Australia Day 2000 my collegues and I had a comfortable afternoon at The Australian Hotel on Coronado Bay. My mischevious friend, when ordering drinks said "... and Mr Foster will have Jack Daniels on the

I went to the Outback Steakhouse in San Diego in 2000. The menu was very American. When I asked the waiter if they actually had Australian food he apologised for the lack of kangaroo. I'm not entirely convinced he was joking.

Yep. They just see a life to save, and will do everything they can to achieve it. It get's worse with a rare disease, as they want to be in the paper about it.

Yes. I don't qualify for Voluntary Assisted Dying though. If I ever need it I can take stronger measures, using simple science and engineering. I did have a cardiologist suggest that if he was me he'd refuse getting implant upg

It's worse than the article says, because it's from a doctor's perspective. I have CRPS, one of the contenders for worst chronic pain you can have. It's a "suicide disease", because if it advances to stage 3&#

I had a friend get charged with cultivation in 1982 for 200 female plants. His lawyer called in lots of witnesses that Geoff smoked a _lot_ of dope, and that it was for personal use. He also presented a petition with nearly half his villag

When being assessed for MMJ, my cardiac arrythmias were taken into account. I'm very prone to cardiac arrythmia (Brugada Syndrome), and THC _is_ causally associated with cardiac arrythmia. It's generally a problem with either na

OMG!!! For YEARS I've wondered why I get a buzz from CBD, when it's "not psychoactive". It's incredibly affirming to know I'm not the only one. As for flower, I feel "full" while others have more, alt

I know where you're coming from. Chronic ill health can be a really isolated life. I get out once per fortnight to the supermarket, once per month to the pharmacy, once per 6 months to my GP. Other than that I get away from home may

EDS is also highly associated with ADHD and ASD.

Remember, the article is talking about people with profound disability, not people who can comment in forums. I think it would be fantastic _if_ there's a set of markers in a young infant that can be acted on preventing non-verbal, co

So what's the issue with non-verbal "autistic" people then? All those people with the same symptoms and presentation, if that's not a disease or better, a disorder, then what is it?

But she could talk? And touch another person without screaming? Because _severe_ autism is non-tactile and non-verbal.

by Perenti 2y ago
The level of severity being discussed here is non-verbal, screaming all the time, just in a state of abject terror. These people have _severe_ ASD.

I'm diagnosed ASD as well and I strongly disagree with your statement as it stands. There are people who are profoundly impacted by autism. I _can_ go to a shopping center. I don't like it. I may have to hide in the bathrooms f

I'm on the spectrum (diagnosed), and also like being me (most of the time). But what about the poor sods who have so much happening all the time that they don't get the chance to learn to speak, or read, and scream in terror conti

I'm not convinced this is unknown. How is this any different from say Karman vortices? I also question how well a paddlewheel in water scales to and models a birdwing in air.

In my experience, if cannabis gives you a bad time like that you _should_ avoid it, as it's those people that I've seen go mad and never really come back. Not everyone has the same THC experience, and I'm convinced there are

Can anyone tell me what this means: "Other countries, notably China, have proverbs that say they are much more stubborn when shifting gears from Windows to Linux." Proverbs? A stitch in time saves nine. Many hands make light wor
