Comments
I discuss:
- Sergey Brin's inauguration presence.
- Trump's initial health-related actions (and omissions).
- A freeze to NIH activity that has stoked funding fears among thousands of researchers.
Genevieve Jurvetson, for example, told the crowd at DLD in Munich that her moonshot goal for 2025 is to see Lykos Therapeutics' MDMA-assisted therapy approved by year-end.
sensory "changes" are not nearly inherently psychedelic
LSD, DMT, psilocybin (4OPO-DMT), are indoles like serotonin, most literally familiar
👉like family
which is often a convenient recourse for those who are afraid of the confrontational, often * unpleasant but necessary* truths that psychedelics bring to the foreground
👉 MDMA candy-coats what psychedelics expose
Conflating these is extremely problematic, as methylated amphetamines are neurotoxins.
See Dr. Humphrey Osmond for the definition of, "psychedelic", and the specific reason he coined the word — specifically to differentiate it from non-psychedelic mere psychoactives 😎📣🍄🟫
