What do you think would be Savannahs top 5 fascinating encounters (animals, people, smells, etc.)?

Did early man have regional differences in culture, appearance, technology like we do today? Also when is the first evidence of spirituallity or proto-religion?

Also i strongly suggest you see the movie "the man from earth". Its about a guy who says hes an immortal cromagnon man whos been alive 14000 years and has witnessed all of human history and its advance as well as the changes in the natural world (floods, old forests, etc.) most of the movie is in this guys living room and is a thought experiment presented as a discussion between professor friends of varying fields of expertise trying to disprove his claim based on debate with him and among themselves. Great film.

Any links between issues with people with brain injuries doing shrooms?

Ive got PTSD, Ive also got a TBI. My first dose of shrooms was 14g on a dare, it was a ridiculous experience but I noticed my depression and PTSD and to a lesser extent anxiety lifted for a couple months afterwards.

I continued to do doses of a couple grams or so every 6 months Ish to avail from these effects.

Then one day I was doing shrooms at a weed bar and i felt the usual but just as i was starting to peak i stopped being able to speak, and then move and the next thing i new i was collapsed barely able to move and completely unable to speak. I was heating up and getting cramps all over my body as i starting to lose consciousness. I managed to muster enough energy to flick something with my hand to get attention before being unconscious. I awoke a little while earlier to my girlfriend (She's a nurse and the bar called her as we were all friends) and some staff holding ice to my head and getting ready to bring me to the hospital. Once i was out of it i went back to normal relatively soon and decided not to go to the hospital and go sleep it off.

I spoke to my family doctor who basically said shrooms work on brain swelling and that as a dude with a brain injury i was an idiot for doing them and what was likely happening was brain swelling and overheating and my body shutting down to focus on keeping my brain cool and alive.

The doctor was kind of condescending though and had zero specialization or experience with psychedelics.

I havent done psychedelics since.

Anything to this?
