Maybe I just watch a lotta matt vlogs, but the thoughts always come back to me. It's like my conscious mind can step back from the controls and watch my subliminal mind take over on auto-pilot. Without thinking about it, my body is taking care of my material needs, my space, keeping me fed and comfortable. That subliminal force is there all the time though, I just don't notice it. It has to be that way for everyone too right? 95% of our personal decisions throughout the day were based on subliminal thought & behavior patterns to keep us comfortable. Even the most spontaneous and erratic brain can only make a %5 sway on the ships course.

It's probably a politically self-interested affirming idea that weed unlocks the Marxism in all of us lol. But it feels nice to have a physiological experience resonate with my beliefs.

Ah, I understand now. Yea that sounds really cool you find that nice and that it helps affirm your beliefs!

I do feel the same on weed and psychs! Very thankful that it helps ground me in reality whenever I trip balls because otherwise I'd probably be one of those people who believe in an alternate universe/plane/reality or acid beings

I wanna believe that the astral acid being believers would make amazing marxists.
