Florida Home to the Nation’s First Legal Mushroom Dispensary

Florida Home to the Nation’s First Legal Mushroom Dispensary.
It actually happened. The first legal mushroom dispensary in the US is right here in Florida, according to a store in Ybor City.
Magic mushrooms, also referred to as “shrooms,” are prohibited by federal law, just like cannabis. Nevertheless, these “shrooms” are also making their way into shop shelves legally, much like Delta 8 weed, which is a legal substitute.
According to Fox New 13, the “Chillum Mushroom and Hemp Dispensary” located in Ybor City, claim to be the first legal mushroom dispensary in the US.
Now I don’t know about you, but I always thought Uncle Sam didn’t want his citizens experimenting with psychedelics. I thought communicating openly with aliens andinterdimensional beings was… Ya know, frowned upon.
The owner of the Chillum Mushroom and Hemp Dispensary says that while his shrooms WILL make you trip, they don’t contain any psilocybin. (That’s the active ingredient in Magic Mushrooms that makes you taste sound and feel color man) That does sound magic! What’s next? Beer with no alcohol but still gives you a buzz?! What sort of sorcery is this?!
A growing trend in the study of Psychedelics is the concept of microdosing. Some large Studies have shown that mushrooms can be highly useful for treating trauma, PTSD, and anxiety. Some smaller studies coducted by college students say that mushrooms made their house cat like really weird and stuff… It’s like it could read our minds dude…
Well… If the walls start breathing, expect more of these shops to pop up all over the country.

Chernobyl, Nearly 30 Years Since Catastrophe
SharePRIPYAT, UKRAINE - SEPTEMBER 29: A mushroom growing on a radioactive "hot spot" that measures 10 microsieverts per hour stands outside in the city center on September 29, 2015 in Pripyat, Ukraine. Pripyat lies only a few kilometers from the former Chernobyl nuclear power plant and was built in the 1970s to house the plant's workers and their families. On April 26, 1986, technicians at Chernobyl conducting a test inadvertently caused reactor number four to explode, sending plumes of highly radioactive particles and debris into the atmosphere. Authorities evacuated 120,000 people from the area, including 43,000 from Pripyat. Today Pripyat is a ghost-town, its apartment buildings, shops, restaurants, hospital, schools, cultural center and sports facilities derelict and its streets overgrown with trees. The city lies in the inner exclusion zone around Chernobyl where hot spots of persistently high levels of radiation make the area uninhabitable for thousands of years to come.
