WM:

Aldous Huxley and the others who warned Timothy Leary that the LSD was only for the elite were essentially correct. Leary seems to have understood this warning as merely upper class condescension, but Huxley was offering sound practical advice.  The result of Leary's selfish and egotistical behavior was to get legitimate research into LSD and other psychedelics banned for decades. More importantly, any genuine spiritual endeavor (as opposed to hedonistic games) requires discipline. LSD should have remained under the control of responsible doctors and scientists. The great irony, of course, is that now altering human consciousness through medication is a commonplace, but it was ethical scientists and competent doctors who brought about this epochal change in society.

Not even Leary invented the stuff any more than say The Beatles. It Happened. He did become an evangelist for it: I think of him as like the Disney or Hefner of LSD. But he also tried to talk sense to society about it. Many people did.
Nonetheless I agree that respect for its power is essential.
I have thought considering psychedelics Medicine was a healthy raproachment - from both directions.
Protestant Church gave me an off-brand cracker with really no Ritual - & Party culture gave me a quadruple dose of LSD as an adolescent kick!
But the case is also made it should be called not Medicine for just pathologies
- but the Elixir for epiphanies - & I see that too...Although both of these imply Seriousness...

Spodiodi - Duolingo is great, if you like phone games. I was addicted to this word finder game for a while, and realized all it was doing for my brain was making me try to make words out of whatever letters I came across, and that wasn't a useful skill. So I put Duolingo in it's place.

I think it's good for getting a good foothold in a language. I dont' think it would take you to conversation, but maybe to the step right before what you'd use for conversation, if that makes sense?

WM:

@:coelacanth: Of course, all new technological inventions have a mind of their own. It's impossible to dis-invent a new technology and we are all forced to live with the consequences for better or worse. The most dramatic example of this is the invention of nuclear weapons - as soon as the USA had developed the technology there was a rush by other nations to follow suit and we are still struggling with the repercussions. But this does not change my point. We can't entirely control technology but we are still accountable for its responsible use. Timothy Leary and others of his ilk exploited an important breakthrough for their own self-indulgent purposes and made little contribution to a genuine exploration of human consciousness.

WM (@4.35) all this is true -but there's only one reason why "positive" (pretending for a moment that pure recreation isn't just as useful for the health of the people as the medical community can be) research and beneficial usage in the psychological field would be inhibited as a response: control.
nothing Leary did stopped that research. that exploding scene just made it easy to justify making it illegal. the pharmaceutical industry couldn't have ultimately exploited lsd (if the research led to that) if it weren't made illegal first.
...and there's nothing more self-indulgent about anything Leary did than 98% of the way the majority of americans live and think.

@coelacanth: I'm not puritanical - I've intoxicated myself any number to times and often it's been lots of fun. Of course, it's true that LSD brought on a moral panic with lots of hysteria and sensationalistic journalism. Also let's remember the despicable human experimentation carried on by the CIA.- Leary can't be blamed for that. It's almost inevitable that new technology is destabilizing at first and it takes time to lean how to use it properly. (Socrates thought that the written word was a dangerous innovation that would only induce forgetfulness.) So, yes, maybe its harsh to demonize Leary and the other early psychonauts of the era. Still, I think technology must be used responsibly and ethically not just for hedonistic fun or personal self-indulgence.Thanks for the good conversation!

Then I moved from North New England to SoCal - when the cultural shift happened that meant it wasn't called tripping anymore - but frying. & that's what it became - just another intoxication. Not informative or even enjoyable.

@ ami -- i never learned Hungarian! wish i had, though :)
was not born during McCarthyism/Black Listing -- but close enough! and, in the early 60s, my parents were living in Atlanta -- my Mom and Grandma wanted to teach my younger sister and i the language (and get our ears pierced), but my Dad did not want anyone sounding "foreign," so that did not happen (i was so angry for him for years, UNTIL i realized how our family probably would have been seen as Russian/Communist spies if we were speaking anything except English)

Ami - I have been spending the past two years trying to get rid of as much as I can. The isolation of lock down has put that into high gear. I've been mending my pile of broken shit, throwing out what can't be fixed, getting rid of things that make me think of shitty memories, etc. It's all very freeing.I dont' want to move blank canvases ever again. I have to make art on them.
