      Looking forward to speaking with @joerogan on his podcast tomorrow. What topics should we cover? (Go ahead, get us into trouble.)

      Does DMT give any valid insights (e.g. helping to 'see behind The Simulation', in some sense), or is it just another meaningless kind of hallucination?

      How would you quantify this? Not being glib. Could you give an example of an "invalid" hallucinatory insight.

      A valid hallucinatory insight would be one you write down, and test empirically, and it proves correct and replicable. Many examples of that across the sciences -- basically creative imagination is being supercharged. Invalid would be, it doesn't withstand any empirical test.

          Does making an unenjoyable music festival enjoyable count as a valid insight?

          You should see some of the YouTube videos of people recoded their after thoughts post DMT. Some say they step outside of a rectangular view of spacetime, as in seeing past, present and future all as one. Made me think of Growing Block Theory of the universe..

          Thanks for clarifying. So you're basically saying it's validity would need to be subjected to methodological analysis, and then confirmed through replication. Can you think of anything example where that would be possible?

          Would a hallucinatory insight, that gives better understanding of one's motivations be "valid"?

          Are you asking about unfalsifiable insights from DMT because then they with undoubtedly fail your metric. Or subjective insights like revealed personal experiences or lessons

          Can you clarify what you mean by "a valid hallucinatory insight?" I get the feeling that you're using all three of these terms incorrectly, the sentence makes no sense to me, but it seems like an interesting thought.
