I've recently been through somewhat of a malaise. Perhaps from my own doing, perhaps from circumstances, certainly from a combination of the two. My usual routine came unbinded and I've been slightly at odds with myself and what I do minute -to-minute. Which is quite an uncomfortable experience.

New Perspective Required. Apply within.
I recently attended the Psychedelics for Psychology lecture at the UCL. The evening consisted of talks from some of the new pioneers in Psychedelic research in the field of Psychology. I was attending in a non-student, non-academic, why-are-you-here-actually? capacity which put me initially on edge.

It was delightfully funny, perhaps mainly as I watched it with my Dad … Continue reading Political Cycle Setting 2 – Extra dirty, Double stains. Broken Machine.
