the future may well be a marriage between Microsoft and the Disney Company

There were times in its history when the United States came close to suggesting what a utopian project might be, but the less appealing sides to American life now seem to be in the ascendant‹there’s a self-infantilism strain that gives America the look of Peter Pan’s Never-never land. However, the future may well be a marriage between Microsoft and the Disney Company, an infantilized entertainment culture imposed on us by the most advanced communications technology.

Alpha in urban dictionary, just few meanings
Sunday, August 26, 2007
1. The head animal in a pack, and by extension, an unofficial leader. Often used sarcastically of someone who wants to lead a group.George wants to be alpha, but no one takes him seriously.
2. Software undergoes alpha testing as a first step in getting user feedback. Alpha is Latin for “doesn’t work.”
3. Slang for the hallucinogenic drug AMT or Alpha Methyl Tryptamine, now scheduled in the US since 2004 but long prior available over the internet thru various suppliers.
AMT is unique in that in addition to its hallucinogenic properties it is also known to be a MAOI or Mono Amine Oxidase Inhibitor.
dosage is usually 25-75mg. Anything more than that is foolish. it is commonly compared to LSD but actually is closer chemically to psilocibin or DMT.
the length of the experience is a whopping 18 hours, and even then one may notice residual effects such as visual distortions and other perceptual alterations of the drug.
The MAOI effects mean that, in addition to the dubious “benefit” of potentizing other psychedelics, it may also potentize speed and other compounds to the degree necessary to cause fatal overdose symptoms from an otherwise normal amount.
In addition, MAOIs carry with them a severe dietary restriction against eating foods rich in the amino acid Tyrosine.
One might induce a nasty headache or worse from drinking or eating any of the foods those taking MAOIs are generally restricted from.
Eating of these foods while on medically prescribed prescription strength MAOI’s can cause death.
dude I took some alpha on friday afternoon and its monday morning at work and im still seeing colors around the edges of things… this might make doing customer service a bit difficult.
I got a whopping headache after I drank some mangoe juice while tripping on alpha the other day and it didnt go away for HOURS! Not Recommended!!!

“The Coca Cola company was the first big company to invest in mass advertising, and they did that in an attempt to keep the market they’d first acquired when they still had a substantial amount of cocaine in the drink. If you can’t hook consumers one way, you have to find another. Every commodity today tries to be as close to a drug as it can possibly be without actually being a drug.”
