Absolutely in love with this set by Sasha. Everything I love about electronic dance music.

It's from just after the pandemic restrictions lifted, there's such a joy to everyone, being back together again. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbU9...

Being afraid is fine

Being afraid of being afraid is what gets you

No matter how hard it seems, keep pushing forward. When you get to the other side of the challenge, you will be proud of yourself for working thru the challenge.

The trick to spirituality is learning how to convert the fuel it runs on mid-flight.

Everybody comes to practice broken, suffering, filled with shame and self-hatred. This fuel burns hot, and dirty, with frequent crashes.

On the spiritual path, it's easy to get sniped by generalized platitudes.

"Love everyone" - NO. Love a specific person.

"Heal the world" - NO. Heal a very specific relationship, or help a loved one to do it.

"Follow your bliss" - NO. Follow service to real people.

And so on.

It occurred to me that media coverage of Lykos this year is interesting historically and hard for any one person to compile as it spans newspapers, substacks, and expensive pharma industry sites. So I have started a project to pull together as much of it as possible.

"Psychedelics, the lay term for substances classified
as hallucinogens..." claimed @floriannaudet.bsky.social , @eikofried.bsky.social, and @ioanaacristea.bsky.social et al...

Is this really so?

Let's take a historic tour and make an etymology assessment to reveal something👇🧵

Most people think that psychedelics are hallucinatory and normal waking consciousness is reliable.

lol, lmao

In his fascinating presentation about 5-MeO-DMT and Minimal Phenomenal Experience (MPE, aka cessation/nirodha/ego dissolution), @christimmermann.bsky.social offers a hypothesis that blocking the 5-HT2A receptor would prevent advanced meditators from entering a MPE. youtu.be/iY7hXwr8UyU?...

Writing tip: say "here's a weird idea" and then write the idea.

Then go back and delete "here's a weird idea."

Everyone is already high agency. Everyone is already doing what they think they have to do.

Much of it is ineffective, self-sabotaging, stagnating. Not because they're low agency, but because this is what their agency is bent towards.

Had a dream where my wife showed me a secret staircase to a secret area and tried to get me to crawl into a secret tunnel to a secret place but the tunnel gave me claustrophobia and I wouldn't go

Probably nothing
