The Journal reported executives at SpaceX worried Elon Musk was on drugs after an “unhinged” all-hands meeting in which he slurred and rambled.

    Hasn’t he been relatively open about his habitual micro and macro dosing of ketamine?

      There’s a world of difference between a micro and a macro dose. You don’t want to be anywhere near work with the latter.

        The difference being, with one you get a light, pleasant, happy, drunk adjacent feeling. With the other, you’re sitting on the ground staring into the infinite void of nothingness, head lolled to one side, while your friends dab the back of your neck with a cool towel, hoping you don’t puke and asphyxiate on it.

          I’d argue that once you are feeling effects of the drug, you are no longer micro dosing.

          Micro dosing started out as a way to describe the maximum amount of substance you could take without feeling primary effects.

            Yeah the whole thing is dumb. Let me eat as many mushrooms as I can without tripping balls so I can kinda work and think I’m a genius. That was hard enough to balance with weed in the office. Real drugs?? Are you fucking kidding me?? Worst case, nothing happens. “Best case,” I lose my career??? No thanks man. Maybe I’ll use them to clear my head on a Friday alone and use the sober new perspective on Monday. During work with no upside??? Nobody has to drive during the day??? End old man rant

                I know that the rules for spravato (esketamine nasal spray, for depression) include no driving until after you’ve had a full night’s sleep.

                  I didn’t drive regularly when I was younger and fucked around. But both then and sober old man now, I couldn’t fathom driving within 48 hours of any drugs. Even day after drinking, it’s not safe… if you’re drinking until last call, tomorrow isn’t tomorrow

            Slightly Fuzzy but not stoned is my go-to with dosing.

              But as your body builds up resistance you’re gonna have to increase the dose

              Also I imagine it’s like super sugar where people say “a little sweeter would be fine” and keep increasing the dose.

                which is also why the doses need to stay micro; so the body doesn’t percieve it as something worth building resistance to.

                I definitely don’t want to be anywhere near Level 2 of a mushroom trip when I’m trying to actually function.

                Just keep it nice and low; measure out 3.14g and split it 4 ways; have a quarter piece of Pi and all that cheesy goodness or wotnot.

          That’s what the uppers are for.

          A micro dose of those, a macro dose of that, a pinch of meth a day keeps the voices away
