One of the greatest scientific discoveries of this century: Ancient DNA resolves the origin of Indo-European languages (spoken in most of Europe, Iran, north 1/2 of India, even a part of China). @razibkhan open.substack.com/pub/razib/p/we…

I will no longer be wasting my time on X. Elon Musk is a hypocrite of the highest order.

I believe I have confirmed with some certainty that I am shadowbanned. Looked at my account from an incognito window and my posts are hidden. Looked at other accounts and they are not. Elon Musk's X is a great champion of free speech guys.

If you see this, I'd appreciate a like or reply just so I can see who is seeing my content. A shadowban checking website is saying I am, in fact, shadowbanned.

I am actually considering the possibility that I'm shadowbanned on X. My posts, even those without links, get extremely low views compared to what they should get with 1.4k followers. Am I just really bad at poasting? I'd assume I'm just bad at posting if the view/engagement…

I had chatGPT generate an image based on my recent substack article, described in the quoted post. For those who have read it, did chatGPT do good or did it do really good? The thing makes dumb mistakes sometimes, generates lots of bullshit, but when used properly can be an…

New SS post --> The Strange Attractor at the Heart of Myth. It's also Chapter 1 of my upcoming book "The Return of the Great Mother". See the attached images for a summary of the similarities between the "meta-mythology" and strange attractors. Link in bio.

Extremely excited to announce that I'll be premiering my new film, produced in collaboration with the @wakingup app, at the @PsychedelicSci Conference in Denver this week! It's called "Unraveling the Dream: Psychedelics, Meditation, and the Brain"

Whether you support him or not, President Trump’s systematic retaliation against law firms like Susman Godfrey for representing clients or causes he opposes is more than an attack on those firms — it’s an attack on the rule of law itself. Lawyers make easy targets. But as John…

Thomas Sowell denounces Trump’s tariffs. I had assumed Sowell was too old to still make public appearances. I like the idea that Trump’s policies are so stupid they shocked him back to life.

Thomas Sowell on Trump’s trade war: “Oh my gosh, an utter disaster. I happen to believe that the Smoot-Hawley tariffs had more to do with setting off the great depression of the '30s than the stock market crash. Unemployment never reached double digits in any of the 12 months…

I'm growing very concerned that Republicans are provoking a lawless backlash when Democrats take back power. Imagine if the shoe were on the other foot: A Democrat president could hire and promote government employees based on political loyalty. They could award government…

1. What's at risk by disrupting NIH? With only a bit of hyperbole: a mechanistic understanding of life itself, & therefore better treatments for cancer, dementias, autoimmune disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, birth defects, aging & more. Notes on a revolution interrupted 🧵

New post --> "The Revaluation of All Values, Part 6: The Will to Power as Relevance Realization." brett-p-andersen.com/p/the-revaluat… I make the case that Nietzsche's description of the will to power shares too much in common with John Vervaeke's description of relevance realization to be…

Wow I’m sure those who still believed Trump was honest are going to be shocked and change their mind now.
