Physician for the underserved. Community builder. I open space so that suffering might relieve itself, if it so will. Bridging medicine, psychedelics, and AI.
A year ago, I told my medical residents I was done teaching them medicine.
AI can teach pharmacology and differential diagnoses better than I can.
The math of medicine has been permanently outsourced.
I teach them how to read a nervous system.
How to hold the physical weight of a cancer diagnosis in the room.
AI does the cognitive long division.
Elders hold the space.
Alcohol relaxes & numbs our bodies to everyday stressors. It also helps to temporarily take away depression & anxiety. Do we all have "alcohol deficiency syndromes"? This EXCELLENT video is a must-watch for anyone on antidepressants or thinking about them.

6/ If you want to learn more about consciousness and "waking up", I strongly recommend @SamHarrisOrg@WakingUp app. It will make every moment of your life better.
3/ Instead of worrying about things I can't control, I will continue my efforts to open consciousness. That means facilitate ppl waking up to the realities of our culture and how their own brains process the assault of CNN/Fox/TikTok/Facebook/Twitter.
5/ Consciousness drives culture which drives economics which drives politics. That's the biggest reason why psychedelics were outlawed 50y ago. Nixon was afraid conscious individuals would see through his Vietnam War propaganda. Consciousness threatens traditional power.
@elonmusk is taking control of Twitter over the next six months. He says he will reverse the permanent ban on Donald Trump since it was "immoral".
My take, in aπ§΅:
1/ I believe in Freedom of Speech, but not Freedom of Reach. If an individual is given a megaphone that can reach >250k followers, they shouldn't be allowed to spew easily verified misinformation.
I have many ppl I count as broβs, but I donβt identify as a broβ and prefer not to be broβd. In Web3 Iβm a ser or fren. IRL Iβm Doc T or Doc Tony. In spirit I just _am_. Def not a bro.
8/ Beauty spawns diamond hands. I am thrilled to hold this piece "Queen" by @BlackmonPhotos. If the print was good enough for Sir Elton John . . . NFT works for meπ
7/ Beauty in a PFP: @JustinMezzell's MoonBirds are the pinnacle of pixelated on-chain PFP; QA approaches PFP differently. As per Web3 ethos, @heyparkerday challenges traditional identity and self-creation with her ICONS. Remember a Clockwork Orange?
