Excited to be a part of this novamentis.ca/news/2021/11/0…

This is what I’m a part of these days, optimizing the delivery of psychedelic compounds. Having a lot of fun being a part of this. biospace.com/article/mycrod…

I swear, some people just live their entire life following an awkwardness minimization strategy and set of heuristics. Gotta keep one's distance from them... It's contagious.

When I use “Best,” in an email signature it’s not shorthand for “All the best” or “Best wishes”...Responding to emails is tough work and “I did my best.”

The DEA have announced their intention to place five tryptamine psychedelics in schedule I on February 14. Despite apparent progress, the gears of prohibition continue to grind away at personal and scientific freedom. federalregister.gov/documents/2022…

If you're a scientist who works with 4-HO-DiPT, 5-MeO-aMT, 5-MeO-MiPT, or DiPT at a university or other institution and would like to help oppose the prohibition of these substances you can reach me at [email protected], otherwise please retweet to raise awareness.

Our latest work is out (open access): link.springer.com/article/10.100…… MBSR was associated with lower trauma + depression in victims of gun violence. This pilot did not include a control group, so the results should be interpreted with caution, but they are at the very least, hopeful.

Ann Shulgin died this morning at the age of 91. Her writing made PiHKAL and TiHKAL more than books about chemistry and psychopharmacology, she made them into great love stories. I know that she believed consciousness survives death, I hope she's right and rejoining Sasha.

I don't believe the 'life is a simulation' thing mostly because a 'simulation' just reflects our current understanding of technology. The ancients thought life was a giant clock only because clockwork was revolutionary tech at the time
