An 80-year-old woman with advanced Alzheimer's, all but silent for five years, took 5 grams of psilocybin and woke up the next day telling stories about her life.

This case study was published just a few days ago in Frontiers in Neuroscience, and I can't stop thinking about it.

She had lived with Alzheimer's for a decade. The last five of those years she spent in the state we are all taught to dread: she was incontinent, could barely walk, and couldn't dress herself.

Her speech had collapsed into single syllables, and her family had come to a painful acceptance that the woman they remembered was no longer reachable.

Then she took five grams of psilocybin mushrooms in a single supervised session in Brazil. The first hours of her journey were hard, with heavy sweating and a long, deep sleep-like state. Then, roughly nineteen hours later, she woke and spoke about her own life for close to four hours, pulling up real memories and events from her past.

Over the following days, the changes kept coming.

She regained bladder control after five years. She started dressing herself and walked with far less help than before. She started meeting people's eyes again. She recognized her family and remembered who had visited her and what they had said.

A month later, with the improvements still holding, the clinicians gave her a second, smaller dose of 3 grams. In that session, she described surfing with her son on a peaceful island, her whole face lighting up as she spoke. At one point, she looked at the people caring for her and said, simply, "It is pleasant to come here."

Her neurodegeneration is still there, and many of these improvements lasted for only weeks. Psilocybin did not completely reverse her Alzheimer's.

But it forces a new potential to the surface, one that would stop any family that has lived through this in its tracks.

We have treated the silence of late-stage dementia as a direct readout of dead tissue. We assumed the lost functions were gone, erased along with the neurons. This case suggests those functions may never have been destroyed at all, only locked away, and that a powerful enough shake-up of the brain's networks can briefly make them accessible again.

I wrote recently about a 92-year-old woman with advanced Alzheimer's who had slipped into a near-vegetative state after eleven years with the disease.

Once her caregiver began giving her microdoses of LSD, she started talking, reading, and recognizing the people she loved, and her wit and personality came back with her.

Both psychedelics produced the same result no one thought was possible: a person their family had already grieved, back in the room with them for a while. If this much can come back, even briefly, then the question worth asking is what else we could reach through responsible psychedelic therapy.

Which neurological condition would you most want to see psilocybin studied for next?

Meanwhile, in the Asylum State of the Netherlands, authorities aren't legally allowed to check immigrants' cell phones, laptops or tablets to check their story.

Many arrive claiming to be "asylum seekers" or "refugees" when, in fact, they are immigrant laborers. By lying about their status or origin, they win free legal access to housing.

Corporations seeking to recruit cheap foreign laborers thus can offload the cost of housing their workers to the taxpayer, or by keeping salaries relatively low since the employed immigrant won't have to pay for high rents.

These are crime against society, and I suspect many corporate CEO know that they are robbing society to fund temporary profits.

The mental health industrial complex is part of a greater antihuman agenda. We've created a medical model where emotional numbness equals mental health. The treatment goal is simple: feel less. The more disconnected from your inner life, the more "recovered" you are. This is emotional lobotomy disguised as care. A person who feels nothing isn't mentally healthy. They're barely alive. Yet that's exactly what the system calls success.

Over de prachtig zwangere @lidewij_devos

Wat gisteren zichtbaar werd in de Tweede Kamer rond Lidewij de Vos, was meer dan een stevig politiek debat. Het was een demonstratie van hoe de parlementaire cultuur in Nederland in rap tempo verruwd is geraakt. Niet inhoudelijke nieuwsgierigheid stond centraal, maar het klassieke politieke hinderlaag-denken: formuleringen, frames en suggestieve vragen waarmee iemand in een morele val moet lopen.

De oude debattruc; “slaat u uw vrouw nog steeds?” is daarvan het bekendste voorbeeld. Een vraag die zo geconstrueerd is dat elk antwoord schuld impliceert. Precies dat mechanisme zag je gisteren meerdere keren terug. Niet proberen te begrijpen wat iemand werkelijk zegt of bedoelt, maar iemand in een hoek manoeuvreren waar alleen nog beschadiging mogelijk is.

En dan is er nog iets anders. Iets cultureels misschien. Iets dat ooit vanzelfsprekend was.

Want hoe men politiek ook tegenover elkaar staat: vroeger bestond er een zekere terughoudendheid tegenover zwangere vrouwen. Niet uit zwakte. Niet uit neerbuigendheid. Maar vanuit beschaving. Vanuit het besef dat zwangerschap iets kwetsbaars, zwaars en fundamenteel menselijks is. Dat je iemand in die situatie niet met collectieve agressie tegemoet treedt alsof het een bokswedstrijd betreft.

Gisteren leek dat volledig verdwenen.

De moderne politieke cultuur kent nog maar één norm: totale gelijkheid in de aanval. Emancipatie is kennelijk zo ver doorgeschoten dat iedere vorm van natuurlijke terughoudendheid inmiddels verdacht wordt gemaakt. Alsof fatsoen hetzelfde zou zijn als seksisme. Alsof elementaire menselijke consideratie ineens ouderwets zou zijn.

Maar beschaving herken je juist aan het vermogen onderscheid te maken tussen wat mág en wat gepast is.

Natuurlijk kan een zwangere politica deelnemen aan een hard debat. Natuurlijk hoeft niemand haar inhoudelijk te ontzien. En inderdaad: Lidewij de Vos stond zichtbaar stevig overeind. Maar dat ontslaat anderen nog niet van de vraag hoe men zich behoort te gedragen.

Want wat gisteren overbleef, was het ongemakkelijke beeld van een Kamer die collectief “met scherp” schoot op een zwangere vrouw, terwijl niemand nog leek stil te staan bij hoe dat er eigenlijk uitzag.

En misschien is juist dát het meest veelzeggende van alles.

Vegan: "Humans aren't designed to eat meat. Look at our teeth!"

Humans:
- Stomach acid pH 1.5 (same as vultures)
- Small cecum (can't ferment cellulose like herbivores)
- Short digestive tract (carnivore trait)
- Forward-facing eyes (predator trait)
- Ability to throw spears accurately (unique hunting adaptation)
- Opposable thumbs and tool-making hands (the teeth we built externally)
- Sweat glands evolved for persistence hunting
- Shoulders biomechanically built for throwing
- Brain requiring 25% of daily energy (built on animal fats)
- Near-zero B12 production (must come from animal food)
- Almost no amylase compared to grain-eating species
- Pointed canine teeth (in literally every human mouth)
- Ketogenic metabolism (we run on fat, badly on excess fructose)
- Liver that converts protein to glucose on demand (carbs not required)
- Bile production rivalling actual carnivores
- Heme iron absorption pathway absent in any true herbivore

Look at our teeth, yes.

Then look at everything attached to them.

Conspiracy theorists are right again.

Sunscreens in Australia contain potential endocrine disruptors and other chemicals which could impact fertility and mood. These chemicals are found in kids' and baby sunscreens.

Student: But sir, smoking is bad... how can it ever be protective?

Me: Definitely it is bad, should never be encouraged. But medicine is full of paradoxes that we as doctors need to know. Now tell the answer

[Ryan Daigler - Exposing Narcissistic Abuse 🚩🚩 @Ryan_Daigler]

“Doctor shopping” is a narcissistic abuse tactic that is very relevant right now.

When the effects of long-term abuse start becoming visible — the emotional dysregulation, the erratic behavior, the desperation — the abuser knows other people are going to notice. And the abuser knows they have a window. They can move before anyone else has time to form their own conclusions. So they take that visible damage to a doctor — sometimes “shopping” until they find one who accepts the narrative uncritically, or by presenting a manipulated account of “symptoms” and false concern convincing enough that a well-meaning clinician doesn’t think to question it. Either way, they get a narrative in place before the question of abuse ever enters the room.

The diagnosis is a preemptive strike.

Once the label exists, the abuser’s guilt is neutralized in advance. Anything the victim says about the abuse can be dismissed as a symptom. Any emotional response they have confirms the diagnosis. The damage the abuser caused now has an alternate explanation — and that explanation came with a doctor’s signature.
