You’re holding in your hand the making of history: For the first time in our 48-year legacy, OFM is doing psychedelics! Well, an issue on psychedelics, that is …
Yes, we’ve done a drugs issue before, and we always do the cannabis issue in April. But now we bring you something new: a psychedelics issue every September, in honor of 9/20, the holiday for psilocybin.
Why a psychedelics issue? We believe that—much like how Denver and Colorado changed the cannabis landscape in the country at large as more states started to legalize—having decriminalized mushrooms in Denver is going to similarly change things. We also believe that functional mushrooms, psilocybin, MDMA therapy, and other substances that used to be demonized are going to transform the worlds of recreation and health for queer folks.
So, expect some mushy love from us every fall, along with some celebrations to boot. In addition to the informative content on our website this month and in the issue, we are stoked to throw our Psychedelic Dreams party at Meow Wolf later this month during their Adultiverse celebration on 9/18 and let the 9/20 fun roll (safely, legally, and consensually of course)!
If you have thoughts on the emerging mushrooms market, tips for OFM on what to cover, or if you just want to connect, please drop us a line. This is us tipping our proverbial mushroom caps to you, good sirs and madams, gays and theys. Let the festivities begin!
