Albert Hoffman

I personally consider Albert Hoffman a hero for his advancements in the scientific community, and for pretty much fueling the beat movement.
how do you all feel about him?

side note, he passed away yesterday at age 102.
rest easy Albert, and happy may day to you all.

hero for being 102

he was the man who discovered LSD also a psychedelics advocate.

I was gonna go look him up until you said that.... Hero!!!

RIP

Happy may day

its not very often when someone like him comes about.
imagine the sheer terror he must have felt the first he dropped, he didnt even drop actually, the LSD seeped in through the poors of his skin.
not knowing what is happening or how long it will last or if he will ever be sane again must have been terrifying.

happy may day.
may the anarchist martyrs of haymarket rest in peace.

Ya, that's pretty fucked. I can only imagine how bad his trip turned. I had a bad trip just thinkin about matta's avatar; there's no way he could've kept the feelings of anxiety away when you have no idea what's happening or if it will even stop.

hahah yeah. he was riding his bike from his lab and thought he was being chased by demons, and was peddling as fast as he could and he didnt thing he was moving. and when he made it home he tried to relax by sitting on his couch and he that his couch was eatting him.

Damn, I thought you were talking about Abbie Hoffman. Anyway, this guy sounds like a pretty good guy so I vote yes.

hahah someone needs to make an abbie hoffman poll.
i need to make a hunter s thompson poll though >.<
but yeah he was a great man.

I have a friend named chase hunter thompson. His dad wanted his first name to be hunter but his mom didnt so they made it his middle.

damn thats rad, hunter s thompson was such a great person.

All I know is that he put a loaded gun in his mouth and pulled the trigger. Then he stopped living for some reason.

dr. thompson.
making brain rain.

Whut is brain rain homey.

when one's head gets shot, and his brains procede to shower his surroundings in a rain type fashion (consistings of his brain's).
