Lysergemise deez nuts...

But in good faith and context, what are the differences in action potentials? Is it worth writing about? That's an actual question, because (apologies) I'm stoned as fuck.

Also, how is it suddenly not a tryptamine?

It's all good homie lol.

It's not a tryptamine because that's a different molecule altogether. LSD is a lysergic acid, while psilocybin or DMT are tryptamines

Best way I can describe them is that lysergamide is like meeting the universe, while tryptamine is like being one with the universe.
