"Operationally what these psychedelics do is they dissolve cultural conditioning. Cultural conditioning is like software, but beneath the software is the hardware of brain and organism and by dissolving the cultural conditioning to speak English, German, Swahili or whatever, then one returns to this ur-sprach, this primal language of the animal body and can explore the real dimension of feeling that culture has a tendency to cut us off from. Culture replaces authentic feeling with words. As an example of this, imagine an infant lying in its cradle, and the window is open, and into the room comes something, marvelous, mysterious, glittering, shedding light of many colors, movement, sound, a tranformative hierophany of integrated perception and the child is enthralled and then the mother comes into the room and she says to the child, "that's a bird, baby, that's a bird," instantly the complex wave of the angel peacock irridescent transformative mystery is collapsed, into the word. All mystery is gone, the child learns this is a bird, this is a bird, and by the time we're five or six years old all the mystery of reality has been carefully tiled over with words. This is a bird, this is a house, this is the sky, and we seal ourselves in within a linguistic shell of disempowered perception, and what the psychedelics do is they burst apart this cultural envelope of confinement and return us really to the legacy and birthright of the organism."

i still don't get it.

[compared2what?]

i still don't get it.

Don't get what, sweetheart?

[OP ED]

maybe its just too obvious to see, or perhaps I overlooked it on account of all the pretty pictures.

wtf does "NSFW" mean?

i've looked at this thread a dozen times or more. I don't think I've actually contributed any pictures. strange.

i have a short attention span.
swan-on-swan action tends to make me forget what I was thinking of previously.

note to self: less drugs.

Oh. I thought maybe you didn't get that the 1919 Public Health poster was part of a series for boys, and the 1922 Public Health poster that recycles the same image was part of a series for girls. And I was wondering if you had suddenly become severely impaired.

The NSFW thing makes perfect sense, along the following lines:

(a) This thread arose out of the "Great Tits Cope Well With Warming" thread;

(b) it therefore entails a de facto presumption that all girl/bird art is pornographic, because I say so; and

(c) I say so because it's amusing me to regard it that way. Why are you trying to rain on my parade?

I very much hope this clears up any unnecessary confusion. Below please find another Leda and the Swan painting for you. By Otto Dix. I'm feeling kind of Weimar today.

Sincerely yours,

NSFW = not safe for work (although I think the W part can have other meanings).

As in, you might not want to be opening and looking at this thread at work for the reasons C2W mentions. It hasn't really panned out that way.

Yes, it has! All art with girls and birds is Triple-X-rated, by definition! Why? Because I sai....Oh, forget it. No one ever listens to me anyway.

Think I'll go eat worms.

You can say that again!

Brainy, I saw this much..



and thought Oh No! I haven't? Not again?

So I was so relieved to see that tit.

Nice one.
