For those that really don't know: Star Trek TNG, episode "the inner light", S5E25.
This guy's taking Kamin off the grid!
This is just salvia
Or its sloppy, slimy equivalent saliva.
And the flute is the bong you smoked out of.
Thanks for the flashback.
Have visited cursed chapters of other lives on salvia. Have had full lives on ayahuasca... tired stare ... no flute though.
Ketamine and salvia. I experienced eternities while under their influence.
One time I smoked just a little to see how it would feel. I tripped the fuck out for like 5 seconds.
A drug that makes you hallucinate being on a dying planet where you learn to post memes and type into a little glowing box. When you wake up, you get to keep the glowing box.
Why would I want to keep that nightmarish box?
For Raid Shadow Legends™
It also plays all the bideogam
Come to think of it: Doesn't that flute look suspiciously like a 1st gen vape? Like... might the reason why he got the flute for real just be that he wasn't zapped by some satellite but because he was high as a kite on some vapor coming from the "flute"? What if Q is just his version of white elephants?!
Have you met my friend Outer Wilds?
Definitely my favorite 22 minutes to spend 80 years on! :)
reminds me of that pasta where a guy suffers an accident and lives an entire life, marries and has kids while in a coma.
my man lamp liar
Pretty sure that's what ultra high concentrates of salvia do to you.
Actually had a friend who reported a somewhat similar experience on salvia. I watched him hit the pipe, giggle for a minute or so before his expression went stone cold. After he came down it took a while for him to get his bearings. Asked him what happened and he said he felt like he floated into the sky and landed on a giant clock face. He heard a voice tell him that he would be stuck on that clock forever, and said it felt like literal years that he was there. Said he wouldn't do salvia again for a million dollars after that.
I on the other hand always had really delightful trips on it, so your mileage may vary from a five minute wacky giggle trip to eternity on the sky clock.
Man.. I've done that twice. Definitely very uncomfortable experiences.
Twice was enough for me so we gave the rest to friends. One of my friend's moms did it while I was in the room and never looked at me the same again. She told her son (my friend) later that she legitimately believed I'm the anti-christ.
I became a toddler crying in my mothers arms during a riot happening at the partition of India.
I did Salvia once over 10 years ago and it truly changed my life for the better. Definitely something that more folks should try in a safe space. It's similar to mushrooms but only lasts for a few minutes instead of hours.
Agreed. I've done salvia and mushrooms and they are both amazing, but I've also seen a few bad trips, usually from people that were a little unsure about trying it in the first place. My rule of thumb for psychedelics is to go in expecting an amazing experience, but if you have even the slightest hesitation, wait until you're ready.
For real. It can really knock you out :D
Part of me wonders if you could have a weight loss clinic that's just a drug that puts people into a medical coma while raising their metabolism and then just keeping them in homeostasis until the weight eventually just sweats out of their system.
Fun fact: when loosing weight, you actually breathe the weight off. Fat is “burned” by your cells and the byproducts are transferred, via your bloodstream, to your lungs where you exhaust them.
Great Episode
Kinda like Roy from Rick and Morty?
Star Trek The Next Generation - Picard goes through this exactly. "The Inner Light"
Takes Pill
Wakes up in a dirty prison cell
... Oh no.
This kinda happened to me after a 4 day meth binge resulted in psychosis.
And put the drug in our water & chemtrails.
Maybe instead of a drug invent a virus form that does the same. Or like a memetic agent hidden within commercials.
Am I supposed to learning new skills in thid play through? I don't even know what skills I had when I got put in. This is some RNG bs.
My sister asked how he had the flute afterward, like it was some kind of magic.
My dude, he replicated it. They can make more than just food from those things. That's one of the reasons they don't give replicators to everyone who asks.
If you had the 80 year lifetime that included the experience of hand crafting your own flute, you could just craft another one once you wake up.
The flute was found in the probe. Riker brought it to him at the end of the episode
The flute was inside the probe
