I recall experiencing an incredibly fast hallucination with my eyes closed—like tiny dots moving at an extreme speed.

Faster than anything I had ever seen, almost like an intense vibration, beyond the refresh rate of the eye. It was both intimidating and exhilarating.

Perhaps screens are unable to replicate this type of hallucination.

The animations on this website are impressive. However, in my experience, closed-eye visuals tend to have a central focal point, along with folding or tunnel-like movements and recurring patterns.

I feel deeply grateful for having had some psychedelic experiences, even though hallucinations are the least interesting aspect of them. For me, they acted as a magnifying glass for my overall state of being—allowing me to step outside myself and honestly assess how I feel. They also foster a deeper appreciation for nature.

It would be fascinating to have this discussion within this community. These substances are often demonized due to a lack of understanding, yet they can have a profound impact. For instance, after taking a small dose of LSD, I completely lost interest in alcohol. In the past six months, I’ve only had three nights of drinking, lost a significant amount of weight, and feel fantastic.


Like any mind-altering substance, I would suggest caution. Bad decisions are made and dangerous thoughts are had. Relationships can end, lives can be ruined, and people can die. It’s not a hallucinagen-specific problem, but here be dragons.


Like driving a car.


Awesome! Really awesome.

I hope that German secondary physics and chemistry teacher who has an amazing free pdf book about tikz sees this.

This was such a great and didactic book to real tkiz. I can't find it right now, but must be somewhere.


It's not just that.

Morada is any property that you live, use to live or use to do private activities in it.

If you used at least once a year or so, then is morada. Like if it was your primary house.

If you have a semi demolished house, or unused house during years, then clearly is it not a morada. That's the difference.


We are getting poorer because people invest in real state to their benefit without adding any social value to our lives. Only to higher our rent and making touristic flats. Which crowds our streets with noise and filth while the benefits are for foreign companies that are prostituting our cities like a thematic park.


I know a guy who lived in a unfinished house.

He was like inspector gadget.

He did the whole electrical installation and had a giant water deposit on the basement that he filled once a month with the waterolympics: getting the water from the next street from a fire hydrant. Such a great guy. With a lot of social conscience, firm to his ideals and he worked!


You are right.

If you okupas you always ocupas. But you can ocupar without okupar.

The k differences the political movement from the physical act of using a property which is not yours. Okupas don't promote squatting in a small owner property. They promote using unused properties from banks.

In fact in Barcelona there are la Oficina d'okupació:

Antena3, lol! This is one of most sensationalist TV channel in spain.

The media always look for this situations and portray they because are shocking.

This is not okupation, and has nothing to do with the movement.

This laws primary are there to protect families and people who rent.

I know at least 15 okupas, who lived +4 on bank unused, and still unused, properties. This okupas helped to not saturate the market. They all worked in touristic areas where housing is scarce, and this makes hiring people very difficult because workers doesn't have a place to live and rent is crazy high.


It's ironic: in the US you have the freedom to kill, but not the freedom to be saved in a hospital. Just the opposite of Spain.


Great. I am glad to hear this.

You forgot about people who live there all year round. You know, the ones who work, maintain services, offer food, have children who will keep everything working.

Spain shouldn't be a big hotel, it is also the country of people who live all year round.


Astonishing entitlement man. I was born in a dark country with shitty weather, bad air. Now when I made enough money to change it I want to spend a few months a year in the sun. People who live there are amazingly lucky to be born where the weather is good. Most of those desirable areas would be 3rd world country level if it wasn't for tourism as people there were unable to develop any kind of functioning economy and have to rely on others who spend their money there just because the weather is good during winter.

Spain has vast areas of unused buildable land, especially the South. It's not like land is a scarce resource there. Me buying a house won't cause someone unable to buy another one in the area. They can build it nearby if they want. The problems there are not caused by tourism as there is enough space for everyone and then some. Telling someone who has to actually work to be able to spend a few winter month in the sun that Spain should be for people born there while benefiting from EU (that means free movement of people among other things), trade and first of all tourism money is just the most arrogant entitled attitude I can imagine.


Tourism is making this country 3rd world.

There is plenty of industry and jobs in the north.

If the south keep relying on tourism they will keep this misery going.

I don't care if you are born here. I only care if you work and contribute here. Tourism is killing people.

Look at Barcelona. Before the Olympics it was a amazing place to live. Now it's rotten and prostituted to expats, tourists and poor people who go there to work in inhuman jobs paying unpayable rents.


This is not like this.

The point is, if you break anything to enter you used force and it's much worse.

But if it's your residence, your house, and at least you used once a year is "morada", and then they are intruders and they are breaking the law.

It doesn't matter if they change the lock or anything like this. If mossos doesn't do anything, which would amaze me, then call the other forces, like civil, local o nacional.

If you let a house unused all year long or during years, it's your problem. I don't know what's the purpose of owning a house and not using it, in this case, I would appreciate that someone breaks in to live there with pacifically, this people exist.
