Finished! It didn't have as much hard data as I was expecting (almost none, actually), but I think he was writing for laypersons, and he does extensively cite his sources, so I guess I could go read the studies if I could be bothered to. It is, however, an interesting history of the therapeutic use of psychedelics, some first-hand trip reports, and a summary preliminary studies currently underway. If you're interested in the subject, I recommend it.

At least these pricks care enough about my pussy to be an asshole about my dick!

I felt as if I had been repeatedly sucked in to the asshole of God.

I read the first ~150 pages of Pollan's How to Change Your Mind last night. The first section of the book is more or less a history of scientific research into psychedelics, and their tangled relationship with law, politics and culture. He's a good writer. I'm looking forward to reading more.

I too had a dream where Donald Trump was nice to me. It was weird.

I just ordered Lies My Teacher Taught Me by James Loewen and How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan. I'll have a lot of reading to do.

The tank is coming along pretty well now. All of the plants are established and growing. The only "problem" that remains is the pH. It's still in the 8.0+ range, which is odd because my tap is 7.2. I did have calciferous rock in there, but it's been gone for a few months now, and the pH hasn't lowered. Everything else in the system is either inert (silica sand, lava rock, clay) or should be actively acidifying the water (soil, wood, plants). I've been doing 30 gallon water changes once or twice per week. Any idea what gives?

One of my Amano shrimp is gravid (or whatever you call it when crustaceans are carrying eggs). Looks like there are a ton of teeny shrimplets in my future.

Have the Marvel comics ever addressed the fact that an "avenger" is one who seeks retribution? It's generally not considered a heroic quality. The name "The Avengers" basically marks them as a vengeance squad. "The Defenders" have a much more honorable name.

I'm re-reading Leviathan Wakes, and TBH I like the TV version better. It's a great story, but I think the TV writers tell it better. Particularly, none of the non-POV characters in the book have much depth. I've never read beyond this book, so I'm not sure if it gets better in that regard. It's still worth a read though.

I was surprised to learn today that tourism only accounts for 8% of the Bermudan economy. The rest comes from being an off-shore tax shelter for insurance companies :|

Anyway, here’s a dick pic.
