I can’t find the article about the accomplished recent repeal of Psilocybin prohibition, will have to re-search for it.
Bipartisan support:
US DEA Facing Fresh Lawsuits After Denying Psilocybin Waiver, Rescheduling Request
___
Short-form postings instead of long-form neat articles with polished, researched content
WordPress supports a short tweet format, which I need to use more.
Low-overhead incremental contributions is supported by WordPress “weblog” design, intended for daily posting, with the date added in the URL.
WordPress also has a distinct design for so-called “pages” instead of so-called weblog “posts”.
That’s long-form content creation, comparable in the direction of writing a book, instead of writing a comment thread posting, at the other extreme.
____
I need a short-form forum to develop ideas about the two political parties both supporting drug prohibition and repeal of it.
To develop ideas, I need short form posting and I miss discussion thread conversations like Max Freakout used, like Yahoo Groups in 2000, where I could develop ideas with other people about this question of:
Both of the two political parties in the United States are both very drug-prohibition upholding, and yet they both also have a lot of repealing Drug Prohibition.
For example, the Libertarian party has strong, vigorous support for repealing drug prohibition, which feeds into the so-called conservative party.
I am not eager to publish long form weblog articles without first developing ideas in conversation with others, would be an easier forum for me to develop ideas
this is part of the challenge (& opportunity) of content creation everybody Work… [LOST TEXT]
____
The bug is in the voice transcription software, not in the WordPress app.
Voice dictation just had a failure in this simple text app, where it started rapidly deleting all of the transcription that I had just done.
This proves that the bug is not in the WordPress app, but the bug is on this platform; the bug is a voice transcription bug in the voice transcription software, not in the WordPress app.
____
Nested list item support is still missing or removed
A WordPress bug, yet another obstacle to content creation: they removed support for nested list items, which is very basic requirement.
I continue to need to research documentation on WordPress authoring because nested bullets, nested list items still don’t work anymore, which is a huge impediment to my maintaining my WordPress site.
_____
Voice dictation to produce text posting content
Voice dictation works fairly well [no, failed later] except when done within the WordPress app where I tried to make it work and it failed
and then I tried again and it failed, lost my attempted improved summary articulation.
and then I tried again to summarize and develop an idea (“freedom” as a key word giveaway revealing ego-premised notions of what enlightenment is), and again it failed and lost my data.
many of the ideas that I develop are sensitive, and the last thing I need is buggy software preventing me from developing these ideas and trying to articulate them.
instead, use voice dictation within the Notes app which is a simpler app and then paste into the complex WordPress app [no, that might possibly reduce the amount of data lost, but it malfunctioned a minute ago here in this simple app]
___
Mobile voice recording podcast contact and idea development
as an alternative to backstabbing recorders which is not as bad of a problem as flaky buggy voice dictation,
the voice recording app on mobile device works extremely well, although it does definitely require post- production attenuating the treble , because the microphone is extremely bright, too bright for playback on the bright mobile small speakers, causing hearing damage
There are three formats or types of platforms to develop content:
laptop computer
mobile device
dedicated audio or video equipment
in some departments the mobile device is surprisingly much better than the computer such as built-in microphone voice content because of the form factor
I have tested and developed a way of using the built-in laptop microphone for high Fidelity voice recording requiring holding the entire damn laptop in position – the microphone is in the middle of the right side of the keyboard, and a microphone needs to be kept away from the wall and surfaces and corners (or accept a boxy sound)
After I updated the mobile operating system, my voice dictation app went completely blank.
but now it has come back
so the problem of loss of data runs throughout the different technologies.

Vote – Election 2022
Voting Day November 8, 2022
hold your nose and vote for devil A or for devil B
both of them devoted to upholding drug prohibition, but both parties also have potential to Repeal Drug Prohibition.
68% of Americans support cannabis decrim , so it is supported by many ppl in both parties.
within so-called conservative discussion forums there is a striking lack of consensus
an extreme lack of consensus this is even in within the edgy you might say youth filled conservative forums
it is very striking :
2 things that there is zero sign of any reconciliation between two opposing views
half of ppl in these forums are pro Christianity, and half of them are anti-Christianity.
there is a vigorously entrenched three-way standoff between advocates of:
atheism vs.
European paganism vs.
Christianity
all of them at each other’s throats, all trying to convert each other to “the solution”.
similarly, half of them are calling to ramp up Drug Prohibition (A brilliant idea that no one has ever thought of or tried before! I’m sure it would work; we should try Prohibition and see if it works or not), and half of them are calling to repeal drug prohibition, with no sign of any agreement at all
it is easy to observe that the conservatives who advocate drug prohibition are ignorant suckers doing empty virtue posturing who have no idea what they’re talking about yet and end it is that very ignorance that enables them to speak very vigorously
and I’m talking about supposedly edgy supposedly perspicacious youth conservatives eager to get on their soapbox and reveal themselves to be utter ignorant fools
their complete ignorance is what enables them to go on their soapbox and spout off asserting we ought to give it a try , of drug prohibition because – I have an idea that no one ever thought of before! – or that no one ever tried: we need to increase drug prohibition!
Big brain, there, edgy young conservative independent thinker; what a great alternative perspective you bring.
these edgy young conservatives, heads filled with an empty vacuum, revealing their complete ignorance.
they ought to try to read a few articles before they go spouting off and regurgitating unthinking prohibitionist notions,
it is empty ignorant virtue signaling: “we need to crack down!”, these edgy innovative alternative thinkers say; “instead of the status quo”, they say, “we need to crack down on drugs” , say these young, edgy, innovative, independent thinkers.
and then the other half of these so-called conservatives is at least a little bit informed about what they’re talking about.
the ones who have read about the subject and who have informed themselves about the subject, they call for the repeal of Drug Prohibition.
there is , as of one year ago, a gigantic rift, with all ignorance on one side with conservative virtue posturing, and with all the informedness on the other side.
The conservatives who call for a crackdown on drugs are the ones who reveal that they have read absolutely nothing on the subject, which is how they are able to so self confidently posture and assert that we need to ramp up and increase drug prohibition – that’ll solve it!
Sort of like the ego death loss of control experience spiraling out of control by trying harder the same thing:
my attempt to gain control is failing, so I better increase my attempt of that very same nature of attempt
oh no , now that there’s even more loss of control – better double down again the same type of effort that failed!
When drug prohibition doesn’t work, the right thing to do, they say, is the increase the same strategy that’s failed.
But a real problem with that line of critique is there are some bad values mixed in with that.
The blanket condemnation of the altered state is part of the problem.
It is not the case that all drug use is bad and therefore we all just have a disagreement about how to get rid of this bad problem.
We have actually a deeper disagreement about whether the drug use is inherently and necessarily bad.
Even fundamentalist Dave Hunt book author around 1999 wrote a page or two arguing that psychedelics are not necessarily against spirituality.
He just cautioned that they could possibly be misused in spirituality. he reserved judgment – a wise man.
it is a complete standoff , last I saw a year ago
But things have rapidly changed, ppl have seen through illusions and deceit, and so I don’t know if these so-called conservatives and young conservatives have now gotten a clue that drug prohibition is 100% sham.
and not only is there a disagreement within conservatives about how to end “the drugs problem”, there is also a deeper disagreement about the value of drugs.
That remains the best future podcast topic, for transcendent knowledge podcast and Egodeath Mystery show, is the subject of:
what is the value, and on what basis do we hold that the highest value is psychedelic religious revelation?
we can see this grappling and debating about the value of psychedelics in Jan Irvin, who converted from gnostic media brand to Logos Media brand, converted to some version of Christianity.
Last I heard, he was reduced to condemning psychedelics with faint praise and admitting that possibly perhaps they’re not entirely bad.

earlier –
damn! This dictation just now went into rapidly deleting as fast as it can — delete delete delete — all of the voice transcription that it just did
BUGGY bleeding edge
that’s it
I need to research , I need to get and buy a voice transcription mobile app that’s not a buggy piece of —-
I will post these notes as a weblog posting and then I will perhaps use the mobile device microphone to make a voice recording podcast by reading aloud and verbally commenting on the web blog posting
I had an extremely elaborate set up at six microphones but that’s mostly broken down and put away at the moment
it was really nice (putting aside the electric guitar miking which I am pretty happy about ) – Regarding microphone voice recording,
it was really nice to have a microphone and recorder all set up and ready to record at any time by just pushing a single button at any time
This mobile device, used for voice recording, is incredibly easy to use and foolproof, and really has been more reliable than dedicated audio equipment that always thinks of two or three excuses to lose data.

VOTE 2022
in November 2022, 5 states have cannabis repeal of prohibition on the ballot, and I guess that is independent of which political party.
David Borden implemented the idea that I proposed to him around maybe 2005: at that time all drug policy news was always exclusively negative: this bad thing happened then this bad thing happened
it was 100% setbacks
they were not interested at all in reporting news about progress in drug policy reform and the repeal of Drug Prohibition
I told Borden you need to have a strong emphasis and webpages about the many many successes and victories.
the fruit of that meeting:

The Egodeath theory 
The route that psilocybin is taking, in appeal of prohibition, is through the path of psychological/medicinal treatments, which will lead the patient into dependency upon the therapist. It is not taking the route to egodeath, which in itself, is its truest form.
Since no one can measure the sincerity of a politician, it is difficult to see which of the politicians, if any at all, are not exploiting drugs, to gain popularity for votes.
