This is what Rafah looks like now, 2 years later. The IDF invaded Rafah in June 2024 and systematically destroyed everything that sustained life.

"Israel" is incompatible with humanity.

Moving to Toronto has been so crazy because there is truly so much to do that I do not have time to be depressed, I do not have time to think about killing myself, I got places to go, films to see, classes to take, books to read, streets to explore. I love it here!

Andrew Gallimore: Ayahuasca May Be a Pharmacological Technology for Contact

*Consciousness

This clip comes from Graham Hancock’s conversation with neuroscientist and DMT researcher Dr. Andrew Gallimore.

The discussion is about DMT, ayahuasca, indigenous knowledge systems, and whether some “alien” or non-human encounters may involve normally unseen intelligences rather than only hallucinations.

Hancock frames the central idea very clearly.

Among some Amazonian traditions, the ayahuasca vine is not treated as just a plant or a drug. It is often understood as a guiding or controlling spirit. Hancock suggests that the vine may somehow use the DMT-containing leaves as a way to access human consciousness.

He then connects this to what he calls one of the major ideas in Gallimore’s book Death by Astonishment: that humanity may have been in an interactive relationship, often unknowingly, with a vast alien intelligence for thousands of years.

Gallimore’s response is careful but provocative.

He says indigenous groups have taken these intelligences seriously for hundreds or thousands of years. He references the Asháninka and the Maninkari beings, described as beings that are seen as members of the tribe and treated as real as any other individual in their social world.

According to Gallimore, the key point is that these beings are not merely “mythology” in the way modern outsiders often assume.

For these communities, they are beings that can be interacted with, but access requires certain tools.

Gallimore describes ayahuasca as one of those tools.

His strongest line is:

“Ayahuasca is not just a drug.”

He calls it a “plant-based pharmacological technology” developed to interact with these beings.

That wording is important.

He is not simply saying that people get intoxicated and imagine entities. He is suggesting that some indigenous cultures may have developed a repeatable biochemical technology for entering into contact with ordinarily unseen forms of intelligence.

Gallimore says anthropologists often call these beings “spirits,” but he argues that terminology may not matter as much as the underlying claim: there appears to be some kind of normally unseen discarnate intelligence.

In modern language, he says we might call this a “non-human discarnate intelligence.”

He also says that, from our perspective, this is very much “alien,” and that with DMT he does not think it is a misuse of language to refer to these encounters as alien.

The conversation then turns to the Yanomami and their descriptions of hekurã beings: lively, multitudinous, giggling beings central to their worldview. Gallimore and Hancock note that these descriptions sound very similar to what Terence McKenna famously called “machine elves.”

Gallimore pushes back against the idea that people only report elves because McKenna popularized the phrase. His point is that similar beings have been described by indigenous groups for centuries, possibly millennia, long before modern psychedelic culture.

This is the most interesting part of the discussion.

It raises a serious question:

Are DMT entities just internal hallucinations produced by the brain, or are they culturally filtered encounters with something that humans have been interacting with for a very long time?

To be clear, this is not proof that DMT entities are objectively real, extraterrestrial, or independent intelligences.

DMT is a powerful psychedelic, and experiences under its influence can be shaped by neurochemistry, memory, culture, expectation, and symbolic imagination.

But Gallimore’s argument is worth discussing because it challenges a very modern assumption: that indigenous entity encounters must be “just mythology,” while modern scientific language gets to define what is real.

Maybe the better question is not whether these beings are “aliens” in the spaceship sense.

Maybe the question is whether non-human intelligence can appear through altered states, plant technologies, and forms of consciousness that modern materialist science still does not fully understand.

What do you think: are DMT entities purely brain-generated hallucinations, or could ayahuasca and DMT be tools for interacting with normally unseen forms of intelligence?

Jon Taffer has kept 141 bars alive. Gordon Ramsay has kept 18 restaurants alive. The success rate gap is 51% vs 21%, and the reason has nothing to do with who yells louder.

A bar's profit center is alcohol. Gross margins on spirits run 75-85%. On draft beer, 80%. The average pour cost sits around 20%, meaning for every $10 a customer spends at the bar, $8 is gross profit. When a bar is failing, the core product still prints money. The problem is almost always operational: theft, over-pouring, neglected kitchens, bad branding. Fix the systems and the margins do the rest.

A restaurant's profit center is food. Average net margin for full service: 3-5%. The product itself has to be excellent because there's zero cushion. When Ramsay walks into a failing restaurant and the food is terrible, he has to fix the chef, the menu, the sourcing, the kitchen workflow, the plating, and the service simultaneously. He's rebuilding the engine while Taffer is changing the oil in a Ferrari.

That's also why Bar Rescue health violations look like they're from a different planet. When 80% of your revenue comes from liquor, the kitchen is the last thing anyone invests in. Every dollar going to the fryer is a dollar away from the profit center. The food exists to keep people drinking. Walk-in coolers rot because nobody checks them. Grease traps overflow because nobody cares. The kitchen is an afterthought maintained with afterthought-level attention.

Taffer figured out the highest-leverage consulting niche in hospitality. High-margin product, operational problems with operational fixes, and owners desperate enough to listen. Ramsay picked the game where the economics work against you from the jump. Both are elite at what they do. Taffer's success rate is 2.4x higher because the math was always on his side.
