    That’s probably what they ate, and no wonder it made them sick, they’re sold online too. That’s the problem with the drug war people will just keep making new stuff that is even more dangerous or unpredictable than the old stuff, it’s a losing battle

      I’ve seen some mushroom edibles for sale in the Midwest USA that contained Amanita extracts

          I haven’t tried Amanita because it sounded unpleasant when I read about it. Feels like they just sell it because people will buy it thinking they’re getting the good mushrooms without bothering to read and understand the label.

            Yeah I had a run in with anticholinergics in high school dabbling with dramamine with my stoner metal head friends lol, I can still see the spiders, so yeah I also have little interest in them besides academically as well. I think you’re right they are just playing on people’s naivete, they see them and think oh the super mario mushroom that’s the one
