And so I messaged them and I was like, all right, you know, I want to get someone killed at my school. Like how much is it going to cost me?

And that my first article was called like inside the deep web, a conversation with a hit man. That's nice.

I mean, you're fearless even then. Yeah. I mean, I was hiding behind a Tor browser, so there's not much fear to be had. Oh, so it was anonymous. It was anonymous, but I did publish it under my name, so you're right. I could have been in danger.

The snow is definitely in the room. It's all over you. And basically... It wasn't that I took too many shrooms. I think that it was, I took about an eighth of senna essence mushrooms, which are the ones that come from the earth instead of cow shit. And I took an eighth of those at my friend Toby's house, which is a normal amount, but I was in eighth grade.

So I woke up the next morning with these extreme visual distortions. And I thought that it would go away. I tried to make it go away, but There's really no cure for HPPD. It's a lifelong condition. So it's just a matter of dealing with it and realizing that it is only visual. So when people ask me, hey, I have HPPD, how do I cope with it?
