Well people have frequently mistaken me for a woman most of my life and thats happened to me a few times. Its intrusive and irritating to be told I should look a certain way, especially by a stranger and I would consider it rude to say to anyone unsolicited.
Thats not to say its not worse for women having to deal with the objectification layer, too.
I can see that, personally I was and have been a staunch atheist since well before I touched any psychedelics and it has not changed my mind. To each their own and I think it can absolutely help in finding meaning in life whether or not that comes in the form of a higher power. Tripping alone has been great for me but I admit its always riskier.
I think if anything psychedelics have solidified for me the idea that I’m just meat, but in a very freeing way.
Its also not true in the US. At least not anywhere I’ve lived or traveled to.
Seconded. One hell of a show too.
Animals as Leaders, Thessa, Pomegranate Tiger, Myth of I, and Fractalize are great ones.
Stoort Neer and Vildjharta both have some really good instrumental albums.
Gore., Monolord, '68, and The Damned Things are all a little less heavy than what you might be looking for, but they are all great and have mostly clean vocals.
Polyphia and Chon are also both incredible but probably fall a little closer to something other than Metal.
Opioids can be pretty rough for me the next day, too and I’ve never even taken the real heavy ones. But otherwise I agree, alcohol is the worst.
My boss’s boss mentioned it to me last week. I would be astonished if he was on any social media. Then again, he surprises me pretty regularly.
