White Amanitas are lethal, never touch those, but with Muscaria you could have some fun.

These are my favorites because of their common name. Destroying Angel.

Fun fact: the survival rate without treatment is about half, but that goes up to ~90% if you get treated quickly. However, it can still destroy your liver. The toxin is thermostable so cooking doesn't break it down. It is excreted in urine so a lot of the treatment consists of pumping you full of fluids and making you pee a lot. There is no actual antidote to the toxin.

I call bullshit on that one. Santa is red and white because Coca Cola drabbed him in their colors for a marketing campaign and it catched on. Before that Santa was usually portrayed in white and green.

Few weeks ago I read up on A. Muscaria, picked up a couple in a local forest, decarboxydized them in an oven and drank tea with 4g of (poorly) dried mushroom. 3 days before sleep.

Holy mother of fungi, it's like having an antidepressant that, you know, works. Deep sleep duration increased from 10 to 19%. Walking up in the morning felt normal. Weed consumption dropped roughly by half.

Only after three evenings, effects are felt four days after, although waining.

I'm just a noise on the Internet, my words are worth nothing. But read up on the mushroom, it's definitely something different from what people think it is.
