:drugnerd: America is a culturally dead society so drug induced visions are pretty much the only remaining source of inspiration for art. just look at how the music business started to go to poo poo once it became a requirement for artists to be sober

Well legal drugs might also lead to American game companies putting out better games. You can't tell me that Phil Fish would be a lot better off if he toked up and chilled out

all groundbreaking artists who used lsd or weed including the beatles have said on record that they made their wildest stuff completeyly sober (just too much musique concrete and indian ragas i guess). it helps that post-war mass culture enabled musicians who weren't formally educated or on the payroll of big studios to publish their poo poo if they just found some publisher who was insane enough to do it.

of course people who aren't as imaginative or talented think you must use drugs to achieve anything unique and thus make it their excuse to use drugs & not groom their neckbeards & never take showers.
