Still recovering from 4 days of extreme socialising, information overload and sleep-deprivation at Entheogenesis Garden States: Regeneration.

Currently starting a write-up for the next issue of The Ethical Trip. I'd love to hear from anyone else who was there (on or off the record.)

I've been posting about this for a long time. Time to raise awareness again: the SAVE Act would disenfranchise tens of millions of American women (including myself) whose legal names do not match the names on their birth certificates.

Lawyers say a Real ID DL wouldn't suffice to be able to vote.

The Save Act – which would do the opposite of its title – could have a huge impact on the midterm elections

Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible

If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

ICE in Minneapolis has been observed wearing uniforms and reflective vests to mimic those of the MN National Guard as they line up outside elementary schools to grab little kids and their parents.

Since impersonating MN National Guard requires ICE to take off their masks, they run when filmed.

Dr Amber Domberelli and I are kicking off what we hope will become a Mid-North Coast regional chapter of the Australian Psychedelic Society.

First informal meetup: Feb 15, 10:30am, Coffs Harbour Botanic Gardens (Creek Side picnic area; café if raining). Look for the purple shirts.

White racist literally threw a bomb at black people to kill them, apparently not a sufficient cause to have a moral panic, special envoy, national introspection, royal commission, terrorism declaration, new laws, 1,000 op-eds in The Australian. We're struggling to identify why that might be.

Your worth is not determined by your health.

Your worth is not determined by your job, marital status or economic output.

Everyone is deserving of shelter, food, healthcare and social supports.

No one should have to “earn them”.

When basic needs are met, society is better off.

I wonder if these murderous, state-sanctioned, fascist thugs did training provided by Serco?
This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.

These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

ChatGPT is bad enough, but citing Grokipedia? Ugh, gross.

I can only hope this hastens model collapse and the bursting of the LLM bubble.

Ah yes, Serco, the company known for *checks notes* operating inhumane offshore detention centres and providing training to ICE agents. That's exactly who our government should pay to help with NDIS case management.
