Unlocked[^sober] the Happy State again in which everything is beautiful and nothing hurts.
[^sober]: While sober. Roughly, finding new mental states through blind experimentation is boring and tedious. But constant drug-use is unsustainable. Thus, find the state through drugs, then stabilize it (if it's worthwhile) through meditation. Besides, I like that this reverse the typical dynamic where the drug pulls me, screaming and kicking, into weird states, and instead I drag the weirdness, slowly but surely, into my normal life.

I had just taken a hot shower and had stepped outside into the windy autumn weather[^g] to just be sad for a few moments, because sadness is actually such an amazing emotion, a prime candidate for That's What Wireheaded Transhumans Will Experience All The Time. After a while, I recalled Ze Frank's fix to the [Everything Thing][], and so I gave it a shot, lying down on the ground, staring at the giant chestnut tree up the hill that looms over our house, promising, one day, maybe during a powerful storm or after being hit by lightning, to crash down and kill us all. (Or, as we hope, the neighbors, who totally deserve it.)
