“Tested a variety of drugs.”
That’s a hoot of an interpretation. I tested a variety of drugs on myself, when I was younger, too. “No, officer; I’m not on drugs. I’m testing some.”
Timothy Leary, god love him, was a wonderful soul and the patron saint of acid heads. His scientific method was… questionable.
Do you think the CIA had a better method?
Oh, hey… don’t get me wrong. I’m pro-drug, or anti-war-on-drugs, or whatever. Drugging people without their consent is fucked up. Doing anything to people without their consent is fucked up.
I just think the phrasing implying some scientific method is funny.
Jourgensen lived with Leary for two years in the mid-90s, during which time both he and Gibby Haynes were test subjects for Leary’s experiments with psychedelics.
This explains so much to me! Ministry and Butthole Surfers were among my favorites way back when. I didn’t know they had this connection.
