 i  had   this   idea   that   you  could 
  construct reality checks (as for lucid  
 dreaming, where  you'd learn this  habit 
 of trying  to  sneakily  break the rules 
 of   causality  or   physics,   such  as 
 flipping a  light switch  to  see if  it 
 actually  turns  off   the   lights,  or 
 trying   to  get  your  hands  to  phase 
 together. the thought being that if  any 
 of the "checks"  actually  worked, you'd 
 know  you  were  dreaming)   for  datura 
                  plants.                 
                                          
 i  thought,  you could  get in the habit 
 of throwing  things on the  ground, like 
    pens. meant to portray cigarettes,    
 because everyone who  does datura smokes 
 cigarettes.  (they  in  fact aren't, and 
 so   sooner  or   later  the  cigarettes 
 disappear,  and they search the  ground, 
 but nothing's  there.) throwing  pens on 
 the  ground  and picking  them  back up. 
 and be  really concerned if they weren't 
               to be there.               
                                          
 this  is  probably  not  how  deliriants 
 work.   but   i    had    the   thought.
