This is the Capella dos Ossos in Faro, Portugal, with autumnal light slanting beautifully over the bones. I could hear small children laughing in the playground behind the chapel, emphasising the fragility of the boundary between life and death, reminding me to appreciate the small beauties in life

Found this yesterday.

Pink card with these words written on it: veil breach

Someone operates too long at the border between systems of meaning (mundane consensus and deeper pattern recognition)

A confusing diagram showing 51 in a box and x in another with arrows pointing away. "Scroll field vs the simulation" written below it.

22 cell towers. One man who planned and executed it all. From prison, WIRED spoke to Sean Aaron Smith, the most prolific anti-5G arsonist about the origin and details of his anti-5G crusade to understand the delirious, very online political violence of our era.

👻 "Dark Forest Within" 🧠
What if the brain is a creepy forest? Our neurons are the 🌲, old (as old as we are!), and without mobility. Suddenly, comes the microglia, our brain's immune cells. Everything lights up when they move around.

Viral trigger in Alzheimer’s disease is the real scary spooky #FluorescenceFriday.
Amyloid-β🟣 is an antimicrobial peptide that can be produced to trap pathogens in the brain. But it also induces an extensive neuroinflammatory response, as shown here with 🟠astrocytes. #NeuroCovid
