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 watched a man standing outside a party surrounded by NYPD last night, the man was shouting at them, “They’re doing illegal drugs in there!” An officer replied, “You’re just mad you got kicked out of the party, go home.” Dreamlike.

Today the DEA withdrew their plan to prohibit DiPT, 4-HO-DiPT, 5-MeO-MiPT, 5-MeO-DET, and 5-MeO-αMT. As opposition mounted, they decided to cancel the hearing. Kratom was the first time public opposition prevented the prohibition of a substance, now we have five more successes!

2021 has had more overdose deaths than any year in history. I've lost four friends and many more acquaintances. I never dreamed I'd see so much unnatural death of young men outside of a war. If you have lost someone you love, know that you are not suffering alone.

A reminder to all who think the legality of Cannabis should remain a States' rights issue: The federal prohibition of Cannabis effectively renders the 4th Amendment moot. If a police officer claims to smell Cannabis it's probable cause to search your body, your car, or your home

Today the FDA rejected MDMA for treatment of PTSD. A terrible blow to patients, researchers, drug policy reformers (yes, medicalization facilitates policy reform), and the many brilliant people that worked tirelessly for decades to prove the safety and efficacy of this treatment.

I accidentally dropped my phone into a vomit basin shared by the patients at an iboga ceremony. As I gazed down into the phone, now shimmering distantly through the sickness of so many strangers, the metaphor for everyday life became far more repulsive than the vomit itself.

Terracotta pots promote an unrealistic body image in plants. Not all plants have root systems that are wider than they are tall, what about Cactaceae with taproots as opposed to fibrous root systems? It's fucked up that it's 2018 and I still have to say this.

I'm getting very tired of hearing people say their substance of choice is "not a drug." Instead of pretending the psychoactive plants or chemicals you enjoy aren't drugs, why not accept the far simpler truth that just because something's a drug doesn't mean it's bad?

Just because your perspective is unoriginal dosen’t mean it’s true. Oxycodone has been known to be addictive since at least the 1950s, no thinking doctor should have ever assumed a high potency morphine derivative is non-addictive just because a salesperson told them so.
