There's probably something to this part though. I was just listening to a podcast about therapeutic uses of hallucinogens. But there is a subculture of "bio hackers" or people attempting to improve mental capacity.
- Implanted a magnet into my finger.
- Implanted CC chip under my skin.
- Look I'm micro dosing without any doctor supervision.
- Look at the stick of grass fed butter I put into my coffee.
We have, even today, unless something came out yesterday - NO scientific model for what psychadelics do to the brain. We do know that they can cause the contents of the brain to become permanently damaged. We suspect they may have some beneficial effects in unclear scenarios to specific brains. Thats it.

Stop with this bro culture nonsense already.

We do? Which psychedelics? How do they permanently damage the contents of the brain?
I wouldn't agree with the notion of brain damage at all (sounds like propaganda) but what I can think of is HPPD: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallucinogen_persisting_percep...
Right, but there is some real research going on, which was what the podcast was about.
As opposed to some dude doing it because he heard about it on the internet.
You forgot nootropics and polyphasic sleep!
