    We should maximise hallucinations, actually. That is, we should hack the environmental controls of the data centers to be conducive for fungi growth, and flood them with magic mushrooms spores.

                Joe Rogan Experience!

                …side note my most prominent irl conversation about Joe Rogan was with a relative who was trying to convince me it was a good thing that Joe Rogan platformed a celebrity who was saying 1x1=2 (Terrence Howard). Literally beyond parody.

                    I hadn’t encountered either the Howard person nor heard of this podcast, but imma find that episode and listen because it sounds like quite an experience!
