I wish I had some MDMA.

Writer: Amanda RiddellAmanda Riddell

I think it'd bust me out of my funk.


I prefer to trip alone, though. That's the legacy of my misspent youth: it'd be better to take md and message a bunch rather than to do it together. -


I'm pitching DMT as one to do together as it's fairly short. I think that while I'm sure you can handle a trip, it's best to start with an easy one. I'd say DMT is as safe as weed. Probably safer tbh. -


While if I'm tripping with a bunch of musicians, it's to do the tracks, so I'll probably take lower doses if I'm producing. The expenses that I'm thinking of include rehearsals for the band, so that's why I think it'll cost $20,000 or so.


The drugs are a cost, too, which is something I'm factoring in for the budget. Plus the orchestra session. Hopefully a 3-hour one, but depends on how much incidental music we record. - The second-person thing: that's something I invented in high school -- I found it a useful literary device. Emanuel's poems are along similar lines, but that was happenstance rather than design. I'm much keener to keep coming to Parliament with Gary than to do any post-grad courses; particularly I'm not keen to study in Wellington. If I was trying to study, I'd go somewhere else, but honestly I prefer not having to justify myself .. when I take a random trip to the library, it feels like an adventure, whereas if it were a thesis, it'd feel like a job. I get that many of my friends loved uni and now teach there, but I hated uni and much preferred the weed club. That's my vision of the future. 👍
