This is how to show people who don't believe in anthropogenic climate change the way. Who cares if you don't think it's saving the planet, it's energy independency in a world dominated by controlling manipulative foreign powers. On top of improving air quality by reducing pollution regardless of if you think that air quality is good for the planet or just your own lungs.

Mushrooms produce a profound experience and regardless of whether it's pleasant it's beneficial in the long run because it exposes you to parts of yourself that you were trying to ignore. If you've been a full blown alcoholic for a decade and then do a bunch of mushrooms you may have a very uncomfortable experience being forced to face the fact that you are responsible for your own suffering. However that experience may be the end of your alcoholism and you may lead a much more pleasant life afterwards. This actually happens all the time.

I was hoping someone would highlight the other looming issue with Netflix.

It's like they're gunning to become the Netscape Navigator of streaming services. An OG, but obsolete.

They pioneered streaming TV & Movies. I get the need to develop their own studio to produce original content due to licensing withdrawals from major studios wanting to capitalize on their content via their own streaming services. Some of them are now figuring out it's not as lucrative as they projected, i.e. Disney+ & HBO Max - licensing was more cost-effective.

But Netflix failed with their original content by creating a graveyard of unfinished stories as their content library.

When they implode no studio will be interested in their volume of half assed productions.

Now they decide it's prudent to antagonize their already disgruntled consumers? Again, an OG, but obsolete.
