I'd give the left nut of every man I've ever met for a mushroom I could grow that produces LSD instead of psilocybin

    Just get yourself some ergot-infected rye and eat that. It's basically the same thing, right?

    There's the whole thing where the first few joints of your fingers and toes turn black and rot off, but sure, eat some ergot.

    Also, Datura is a common weed. Collect a bunch of seeds and share with your friends so y'all can all trip for days and not even know it. The kidney failure can kind of suck.

    Oof, I didn't know that. I figured it would be a bad idea and was being sarcastic, but I didn't know about the necrotic tissue and all that.

    Datura, I wouldn't even joke about fucking with because some people are actually stupid enough to try it...
