JOSH told me he did DMT, and – and that’s when he experienced an alien ‘mind’ invasion.
you know little guys in way-out green suits with tiny antennas on their heads, come by and say hello on another wave length.
o.k. let’s leave it at that.
BUT looking back, that could have been – the beginning of the end, or was it just the beginning of the beginning for Josh’s manic alter ego: the NOTORIOUS – MJ LUVVY !! and all those . . . we-are-BIO (!!) – sex investigations that went on at PSEUDO, under guise of leadership, academic endeavor, future shock, or was that just . . . plain ole All American red blooded / human entertainment 101.
aka porn.
and, the biggest biz on the web, it turns out. ha.
check: if it was happening – PSEUDO was on it. leaving no stone unturned.
well, come on. PSEUDO was born of JUPITER – the very first web trend ‘tracking’ site.
Josh’s first & best-ever brain-chile – he sold Jupiter for $86 mill. something like that. hey, that’s why it’s called the dotcom days !!
drug-fueled late nite orgies, check. live sex – under 24/7 surveillance, of course.
aka the PSEUDO AFTER AFTER PARTY – ha.
yeah, that’s how we rolled – at PSEUDO.
