I got a job!!

After being diagnosed with epilepsy last year, resigning myself to a short life of little, I have pulled myself out of the depression (I say pulled myself, thankyou NHS). I now feel I am able to work.

This was only my second interview since the behining of this chapter. They offered me the job on the spot. I almost cried.

I'm not trying to boast (although, maybe I am?), I am just very happy that I have made the steps towards accepting, and thriving within, my new situation.

That is all. Thank you Britain.

We often malign our country, often rightly so. One must take a step back and appreciate what we have. Free health care, a social saftey net that allows this space to people, and genuine oppurtunity.

Anyway, I hope at least some of you are is in as good a mood as I am!

Hi all,

I'm booked in to get my first tattoo, inspired by my historic psychedelic use, interest in philosophy of mind, and their intersection with my recently-ish diagnosed epilepsy.

Hi all,

I've the outline of a concept I'd like as my first tattoo. Never thought I would want one...

So, I've always had an interest in philosophy of mind and psycedelics. I was recently diagnosed with epilepsy, which quite neatly/cruely intersects these interests. I'd like something that represents their intersectio, whilst being visually appealing.

The graph line trough the middle is an EEG trace going from normal waking state to seizure, before exploding into psychedelic fractals. The left side neural networks, the greek "Phi" is a core concept in a theory of how perceptiom comes about and a possible starting point for answers to the "hard question", Integrated Information Theory.
