btw, about my name.... from wikipedia (because i'm too lazy to summarize:

Quote:
A pharmakós (Greek: φαρμακός) in Ancient Greek religion was the ritualistic sacrifice or exile by the sorcerers of a human scapegoat or victim. The victims themselves were referred to as pharmakoi and the sorcerer was referred to as a pharmakon. A slave, a cripple or a criminal was chosen by the pharmakon or sorcerer and expelled from the community at times of disaster (famine, invasion or plague) or at times of calendrical crisis, after being given pharmakeus or drugs by the pharmakon or sorcerer who was a practitioner of pharmakeia or pharmaceutics. It was believed that this would bring about purification. On the first day of the Thargelia, a festival of Apollo at Athens, two men, the Pharmakoi, were led out as if to be sacrificed as an expiation. Some scholia state that pharmakoi were actually sacrificed (thrown from a cliff or burned), but many modern scholars reject this, arguing that the earliest source for the pharmakos (the iambic satirist Hipponax) shows the pharmakos being beaten and stoned, but not executed. A more plausible explanation would be that sometimes they were executed and sometimes not, depending on the attitude of the victim. For instance, a deliberate unrepentant murderer would most likely be put to death.
from encyclopedia brittanica:

Quote:
pharmākos, in Greek religion, a human scapegoat used in certain state rituals. In Athens, for example, a man and a woman who were considered ugly were selected as scapegoats each year. At the festival of the Thargelia in May or June, they were feasted, led round the town, beaten with green twigs, and driven out or killed with stones. The practice in Colophon, on the coast of Asia Minor (the part of modern Turkey that lies in Asia) was described by the 6th-century-bc poet Hipponax (fragments 5–11). An especially ugly man was honoured by the community with a feast of figs, barley soup, and cheese. Then he was whipped with fig branches, with care that he was hit seven times on his phallus, before being driven out of town. (Medieval sources said that the Colophonian pharmākos was burned and his ashes scattered in the sea.) The custom was meant to rid the place annually of ill luck.

The 5th-century Athenian practice of ostracism has been described as a rationalized and democratic form of the custom. The biblical practice of driving the scapegoat from the community, described in Leviticus 16, gave a name to this widespread custom, which was said by the French intellectual René Girard to explain the basis of all human societies.
and the tldr from merriam webster:

Quote:
: a person often already condemned to death sacrificed in ancient Greece as a means of purification or atonement for a city or community




you see -- the root word of "pharmacology" originally had nothing to do with drugs. it was a synonym of "scapegoat." it only became a word referring to drugs many years later.

even in ancient greece the scapegoats were the druggies. and we thought the war on drugs was something new.

DOC is completely undetectable via standard drug tests.

except there is one problem with that, it's impossible to eat food on LSD. You taste literally every flavor and it is a lot for your mind to consume, and too much for your stomach to want tit.

Fruit on acid is an amazing experience. Strawberries, blackberries, grapes, oranges. Pretty much any of that shit is magic. It does feel weird in the belly, but usually I would just poop it all out in a couple hours and that's pretty fun too.
