I do love the irony of the universe sometimes.
Spent years expertly do***ng school(6 months was my longest record un captured), Especially when it was "solo talk" time, iwoukd be miles from the school.The FEAR was real.

Now I spend most of my time with my nose in books, studying, taking notes, writing essays no c*nt will ever read and I'm now activly making a living from standing in front of groups of people.

Thank you, old me
for when we were wee
You kept me safe
From things un seen
But now my beards grown
With blue cloak adorned
And we walk with the fear
As compas to the dawn.

A remarkable new study shows that a single high-equivalent dose of psilocybin in mice can rapidly increase neuroplasticity by repairing and creating new neural connections in the brain. Researchers observed structural remodeling of dendritic spines in the medial frontal cortex, effectively rewiring neural networks. (As seen in this Cell.com article: https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(25)01305-4) These changes were network-specific, strengthening pathways tied to perception and the brain’s default mode network, while quieting repetitive cortical loops. This work deepens our understanding of how psilocybin may support mental health by reshaping large-scale brain connectivity.

The Sun is dead and the Holy King slain. May we rise with the light and the Oak King again.
Merry Solstice.

Always follow your intuition or more practically wander , take detours, get lost and see what you can find.

I have missed my little local patch of horseradish since I moved too Narnia (AKA Forth, lanark). This hyper pungent root has been my not so secret fire cider ingredient. Although its probably the harshest flavour in the brew, I find it works like a synergist. Alchemising a myriad of strong pungent flavours into a warming tonic that fills your belly with fire but doesn't blow your head off.
