You don't sound like a mindless consumer, unfortunately, that isn't most people.

There is ongoing debate over how acetaminophen works.... We still don't entirely know but anyone can buy it OTC and even take so much that it kills them. Mechanisms are important, but far from the only criteria we have for determining if a drug is "safe."
This is according to a few studies that have questionable methodologies, such as how they measure "creativity" but yeah, in general drugs only bring out what already exists in someone's personality. If you're a really creative person to begin with, drugs can shift your perspective, which can be useful. But it isn't magic smart people juice.
I know a lot of people are new here but this kind of shit should be moderated better... Link to the study, not someone's blog
PSA: Apple Maps used to suck badly but now it's way better than Google Maps.
