Ok, where is this psychedelic community found?

I must sample their handles for videogame character names.

Bit like asking where all the beer drinkers are! People who are into psychedelics come from all walks of life and we're everywhere :) Start talking about fringe stuff with people and eventually you'll stumble upon others.

I mean, it's not the same is it, because I can tell you where I can at least find beer drinkers … down the pub, at the bar.

If your bubble has people in it who have access to psychedelics, then great. If one's people doesn't have that, "just talk to people" is profoundly unhelpful. That's a very odd and specific conversation to bring up within some circles.

You want to find psychedelic users?

Go hang out on TripSit IRC. Go to music shows that draw that sort of crowd, like Phish and Co or EDM shows.

Check out any of the psychedelics subreddits.

Some cities have public psychedelics meetups. This was huge in the Denver/Boulder area of Colorado.

There are lots of places if you try looking a little.
