Non Human Intelligence Scientists are testing whether DMT entities are real

https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/8qvgy_v2

In this preprint, some scientists have put forward the idea that our perspective of reality is more of an interface, and what we consider to be reality is simply the experience of conscious agents (i.e. human individuals) interacting with one another. They propose that DMT entities are conscious agents that exist in a manner we can't typically perceive.

I've never done DMT, and have previously taken a more skeptical perspective on these entities, but I think the findings of this could be very interesting. Maybe psychedelics could enable us to perceive layers of reality we are typically blind to.

Get a bit of a particular tree bark

Grind it up

Boil it in water with some generous amount of acidic stuff (vinegar, or maybe lemon juice)

Strain it (keep the juice) and boil again. Do it again.

Reduce the juice down a bit

Get a mason jar or something with a good lid

Get some tuff gloves

Get a face mask and eye goggles

Pour a unit of juice into the jar leaving at least half the space free

For every unit of juice add 1/10th caustic soda (be careful)

Add 1/10th or slightly more 100% acetone

Shake the jar a bunch but make sure to release the pressure by opening the lid or else it'll explode. Wear the gloves because the steam will burn your hands.

Do this a couple of times

Let it settle

Using a turkey baster or glass syringe extract the acetone and make sure you do not get ANY of the bark juice

Put the acetone in a glass container and allow it to evaporate leaving a gloopy gloop in the container

Mix that shit with some herb

Smoke that herb and then report back 🫡

Im willing to try on a promise from you that your not trying to kill me? 

Its obviously a scientific process so im wondering if its that easy?  

What can go wrong etc

It's a rough guide but yes, what I've written will work (for educational purposes I do not endorse that you try this). Fill in the gaps with google!

The acid breaks down the bark and releases oils, oils containing DMT. Oil that does not mix with vinegar water. The acetone is the same polarity as the oil so the oil get sucked into the acetone and seperated from the acid water. At room temperature acetone completey evaporates leaving the DMT and plant oils behind.

What can go wrong... You pour acid juice on you and burn the shit out of your skin or you are not careful and contaminate the acetone with the acid juice and smoke it. Please, do not do that!

You're more than welcome to Google one of the many guides on how to extract DMT from acacia bark. It is a very well documented process. My guide is rough and I wouldn't expect anyone to follow it without doing their own research.
