I finished Jim DeKorne’s Psychedelic Shamanism today.

The episode is out, space opened up, and I’m not excited about the next book.

I’d rather build. But I will probably order the Baghavad Gita.

This is CatalogMiner, mechatronics, a reply from DHH, and a few stories I already told once and still can’t leave alone: Acre, Yawá, the journals I burned, and a cannabis joint that got me a full scholarship at @TimDraper 's Draper University.

It's pretty nice. Enjoy!
