Mushrooms, Regulation, and Free Will

The local Shroomyz store has been busted again and is now closed.  

All for our protection.

Let's ignore the fact that I can walk to the corner store and to the LCBO and buy large quantities of that which we know will harm us long term.

The steps to legalize plant medicine and educate on safe effective use, are being taken with purposely heavy and slow moving boots.

Legality of recreational substances isn't about safety.  

It's about control and the revenues that come from that control.  

I used to be all for regulation now I say, back off and get your own free will.  

No politician, no white coat, and no marketing specialist is telling me what I need to consume or not consume.

We are free and plant medicine slowly and systematically shows us that with prolonged use. 

Claim your free will.

Does Cellular Memory Affect Our Perceptions?

Could cellular memory be why so many people of varying nationalities, faiths, and cultures have come out in defense of Palestine?  Consider how most people alive today have ancestors who have experienced displacement, invasions, and/or attempted genocide.  Some people call this "colonialism".  Only a few of us can say that none of our ancestors experienced this because colonialism was/is persistent in our history.

My ancestors are largely Celtic.  The Donnelly's come from County Cork in Ireland.  Is the cellular memory of harvesting diseased potatoes from under plants that struggled to grow ---sick from a blight said to be started by a nearby country---- why I feel like a Palestinian today?  Is the cellular memory of losing loved ones to starvation why I've cried more than a few times this week in anger and rage at what I see happening?  You cannot silence the traumas trapped in our cells, in our memories, in the epigenetic changes now affecting our existence.
