The pace of the week has changed...Mondays and Tuesdays seems to drag a bit, but then next thing you know it's Friday.

Sense of taste going... That's like a brain malfunction or something? It scrambles the way you interpret sensory data? Tells you coffee is disgusting?

That could be used by unscrupulous people for some nefarious purpose could it?

Someone I was talking to today got ig and they said it put them off coffee, cos it made coffee taste really disgusting. And this is one of those coffee pervertd who grinds their coffee and is really into it.

So it just seemed so odd to hear them say that. And just made me think how such an effect might be used or what it could do.

They are really worried cos it happens to a certain percentage of people and seems to be semi permanent like tinnitus or something.

its defintely brain scrambling but could just be a remix rather than a malfunction. some people have found strawberries now taste metallic. but the bit i was interested in was the evil genius bit

Well my initial thought was how it could be a positive thing and might shake people out of what they are, into something new.

But then straightaway I thought it would have a shadow side, other than the immediate discomfort of the person.

I don't know what, just an inkling.

I've had that on acid. I went to McDonalds on a trip and the chips tasted really strange. The salt was so intense. Eating anything on acid is strange though. I tended not to eat at all on a trip.

one of the weed effects that wears off with overuse is how it made even very ordinary things taste incredible like, a custard cream or someting

Sheils has been knocking back a bottle of wine a night
I watched every Marvel film ever made
Rich has been sticking to his usual moderate routine of crack, heroin, ketamine, GHB, ecstasy tablets, white wine, roast duck, Malboros etc

very ornate biscuit carving exhibited on the humble custard cream its true. one of the few native artisanal traditions this country has managed to preserve, the humble biscuit carver hanging on when so many others have been swept aside by the tide of history
