New Cognation episode! We're breaking down the Psychedelic Sciences Conference 2025 - great interview with UCSF's Balazs Szigeti about the "unblinding" problem in psychedelic research. Participants pretty much know if they got the treatment or placebo - which complicates how we interpret results. 🧠✨

The right wing's insistence that the protests are being "funded" by some mysterious entity is telling. They simply can't imagine that people would take action for the greater good with no immediate opportunity for personal gain.

This is fucking bullshit. Harvey Milk was a damn hero. The cruelty is the point.
Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office.
Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

My model shows a 48% chance that new Liberal leader Mark Carney can prevail in Canada's upcoming elections. And I rank the best poutine burritos in Ottawa. All that and more in the next Silver Bulletin.

Kash Patel raised money for January 6 insurrectionists who attacked law enforcement.
I asked him to look those officers in the eye and tell them he was proud of what he did.
He couldn't.
