Would you be comfortable with your CEO taking acid on the job?

A former Silicon Valley startup CEO and cofounder has filed a lawsuit against his former employer for what he says was discrimination based on race and his mental health challenge — though the company's stated reason for firing him was that he took acid at work, bringing the tech industry's subculture of microdosing psychedelics to a potentially grabby legal showdown.

A big part of the ousted Iterable cofounder's legal argument is that he says microdosing not only made him better at his job, but also made the marketing platform more money, too. Per the suit, Zhu says he was suffering from "trouble sleeping," as well as "persistent chills in his body" and "heart palpitations that worsened whenever he heard his phone ring or saw a message from his investors. Things got so bad, he says, that he "believed he had no choice [but to begin microdosing] because he wanted to make sure that the company would be successful, and he needed to do what it took to make that happen.

Microdosing is chill, bruh. Some of these plants/fungi increase visual acuity and hearing aswell as encouraging discussion. Seems pretty good for an investor meeting. We need to work together to decriminalise these things in order to understand them better.

Micro doses don’t induce any psychedelic experience

How do you know they don’t already and that’s why it’s all so absurd?
