Since they talk about 100% productivity, prob stims. Sedatives/tranquilizers to sleep afterwards?

Antidepressants? Since feeling emotions and being a human machine sounds depressing.

      Psychedelics and dance parties have gone hand in hand for a long time, but I think the burner community has some loose ties (or rather comes from a fascination with) with the hippie community, specific alternative medicine communities, certain spiritual communities and other groups which happen to all have rather nontraditional views on psychedelics and drugs as medicine which they’ve co-opted.

      To be fair though, they do a lot of cocaine as well. It’s not the only drug they partake in. But they often think of psychedelics as less of a party drug and more as a mind-expanding experience. In that respect I agree, I think that psychedelics are particularly interesting and useful in a lot of ways and it’s what we’re finding in medicine now that we’re able to study them once again.
