I can’t see this image (happens a bit with your pics) but sounds good
Weird. It’s The Paradox of Debt by Richard Vague.
Interesting article on how little evidence there is that mushrooms and psychedelics have been used by ancient tribes- it’s all about tourism baby!
Interesting. I’m a little confused as that doesn’t seem to explain the tribes that do perform those ceremonies that are really cut off and don’t have so much interaction with modernised civilisations as seen in the Bruce Parry Tribe programme the other week 
It is highly probable that some kind of psychedelics have been used for a long time. There is just little solid evidence to back up some of the fanciful claims, usually from people who heavily biased. Mushrooms were used in Central America from, at least, the time of the Spanish colonisation of the Americas as we have multiple written records.
Only do it for the cameras 
Maybe they aren’t as fungi’s as we thought
You only have to look at some of the indigenous art of the americas to realise it’s not a stretch that the wild growing mushrooms would’ve been used in first nations crafternoons and spirit quests. I’ve seen some wild and beautiful totems around the place that really show signs of the classic “tripping” visuals.
There is. And a tonne of cave art and the like. The problem is that it’s very hard prove one way or the other and confirmation bias is always a big issue here. Maybe it was happening with hunter gatherers, but died out as people settled into more sedentary lives. Who knows.
“But he’s such a nice guy”
First part of that really hit and described how I felt when he came out… that said, I thought his music really fit the vibe of “Spring Breakers” and that’s still kinda what I associate it with.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with reappraising music years later, but the idea you just have to surrender to ‘fun’ music in order to not be a curmudgeon is awful.
File under; ‘we’re all doomed’…
Here’s another adjacent take on this:
Really nice one by @Hierbas up on TP.
I feel quite bad for Robbie Williams now
I disliked him then, I dislike him now.
As Sean Lock used to say “Put your shirt on, you’re not a builder”
RW strikes me as someone who deep down knows he was indulged for a long time and could usually hide behind the persona. But irony is dead and now he has nowhere to hide. So anything of ‘substance’ won’t stand up because he’s an empty vessel, a product of therapy flailing around for new meaning. He needed to be savaged, for his own good.
