Estimates suggest that hundreds of ⭐️psychedelic churches operate illegally in the US.
As court interpretations evolve, religious freedom claims expand and more Americans drift away from traditional religion,
these groups are increasingly emerging from the underground to push boundaries over which substances – and beliefs – deserve protection.
The Church of Gaia recently became the first psychedelic church to win government recognition by petition rather than suing.

"What is the state of Trump? He is failing at fascism. For Trump to succeed in is fascist transition, he needs a bloody, popular, victorious war. And that is out of his reach. The State of the Union was full of fascist atmospherics. But it was also blowhard exhaustion."

STM32MP2 XC7K160T PCIe test board progress! 66 unrouted nets in the power supply, but I think it'll fit.
There's something for everybody in this board:
* 0201 passives? Check (under the SoC)
* Lots of FPGA? XC7K160T is decently sized
* Lots of CPU? Dual A35s, a M33, a M0 , and a M4
* High speed? PCIe gen2 and a SFP that is theoretically capable of 8 GT/s but I'm gonna try pushing the FPGA a bit and see if I can make it do 10Gbase-R with acceptable BER…

[…] Fast Food für Daten: schnell, billig, füllend, aber meistens eher fragwürdig […]«
Dies scheint mir noch zu wenig in der Allgemeinheit wirklich Bewusst zu sein, denn die Masse der Daten sagt noch lange nichts über deren Qualität aus. Dies ist schon lange ein Thema ua betreffend der Medien, auch offline.

Honestly, owning a private jet is just unethical. It tremendously harms the environment and withholds substantial amounts of money from society.
Even if you must regularly fly, there is no legitimat…

We desperately need to figure out how to flip this: how to lift up the creators of wonderful things, instead of rewarding whoever can acquire power over their creations.
I don’t think we know how to do this. There’s a vast spectrum of schemes for fixing this, ranging from capitalist versions of “intellectual property” to Marxist “just end capitalism” notions to various versions of “easy, society should just be different.” I find them all lacking, both in theory and in practice. This is a problem that’s existed for millennia, not decades, and I’m not convinced we have a clear solution.

Bari Weiss gushed about the popularity of El Salvador’s president,
who describes himself as the “world’s coolest dictator,”
and how safe he’s made the Central American nation
– without noting he’s suspended basic civil liberties,
has been accused of making deals with gang leaders,
and has thrown thousands of innocent people in jail without giving them a fair trial.
Months later, on Sunday night, Weiss squashed a CBS News story on the treatment of immigran…
As US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents wreak havoc on American communities,
big tech companies have been making themselves indispensable to the increasingly tyrannical state.
Among them is Amazon subsidiary Ring,
the company behind those AI doorbell cameras that have exploded in popularity over the last few years.
Back in October, Ring announced that its devices would soon be looped into a network of Flock AI surveillance cameras.
That network, an inv…
