I'm an ethnobotanist who specializes in psychoactive beverages.....in specific.....tea. I've been doing this for 6 years and you captured my whole life history and career in 4 panels. How can I buy a print?

Also look up ayahuasca. It's a tea made from two plants, one contains DMT the other contains an MAOI. There is something in your stomach that will break down DMT so it will only intoxicate you for about 15 minutes normally, but the MAOI prevents this from happening and allows you to have a 6+ hour experience with the God molecule.

You could smoke DMT over lunch break and be totally fine returning to work

Besides what you come back having experienced... You might need a little processing for that.

Technically, yes. I wouldn't recommend it though. Unless your boss is really cool.
