Tegan + Sara Establish Their Own Origin Story In New Memoir

There are a couple ways to tell them apart. They have different tattoos, and Tegan has a piercing below her lip (she’s not wearing it in this interview tho).

[@miketns2212]

[@topgurl9313]

True but to me it's very easy to tell them apart. They look different even though they're genetically identical.

I was walking in a town 8 miles away. Suddenly, a guy crashed through a plate glassed window yelling, "Jesus is a charlatan priest!" And yes he was on acid and yes, he was my friend from our town.and yes, six months later he stuck a gun in his mouth and yes he is no more. No acid for me, thank you very much.

I didn't know that, @@Skepticalresident - there are a lot of Sanskrit words in Thai language (via ancient Khmer), maybe that folk belief comes from the same source. I must check with my friends in Indonesia and Lao: there are also a lot of Sanskrit words in Indonesian, but few in Lao. Thai not only is linguistically super similar to Lao but also shares a huge vocabulary. I would like to see if that 'first in, last out' thing is possibly from that shared Sanskrit source or is a wider belief across Southeast Asia.

Don't know why others are trying to tell you what drugs to take (and not take)... Just do your research, be careful, and take whatever drugs you prefer. It's literally nobody else's business as long as you're not hurting or robbing others.

[@victoriabaker4400]

Make sure you have a reliable source. Set it up so that you have an experienced person with you, preferably not getting high to serve as a guide. Do it someplace that you love and that you're completely safe in. Take 50mg of 5-HTP which gives your brain serotonin that the LSD, and a lot of other substances, use up quickly. Have a light, low-fat meal a couple of hours before you take it, don't eat anything that makes you gassy. Dissolve it under your tongue, don't swallow. Put electrolyte supplement into a gallon of water so you have it handy and stay hydrated.
