God the way this article is written piss me the fuck off. They are trying really hard to spin it as people just wanting to get high. Burying the fact that this is a life critical drug for many. Mainstream media can fuck off

I'm happy for it to be available to those that can benefit from it as you mention, but also I just want to get high and when it comes to psilocybin I don't see what's wrong with that. Hoping California follows this path!

I too have absolutely nothing against people wanting to get high off it. My problem is with article trying to manipulate the reader's opinion by putting emphasis on the recreational use.

Oh yea I understand your point better, and it's a good one.
