Portland Center Stage presents tick, tick … BOOM Portland Center Stage presents tick, tick … BOOM! A portrayal of honest love and defeating fear: Full story in bio. "In the 1970s and ‘80s the AIDS pandemic rocked the LGBTQ+ community, disproportionately affecting gay men. In addition, misinformation and stigma during this time caused increased homophobic discrimination and prevented many from receiving adequate or even life-saving care. According to Portland Center Stage Literary Manager Kamilah Bush, some of the stigmatized practices from the AIDS pandemic have lasted for decades. “There were immediate bans on gay men donating blood—a restriction that still hasn’t been fully lifted and only became less rigid during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic,” Bush said. “Travel bans were put into place, which were not lifted until 2010 by President Obama.”

"2020 was an eventful year, with the new COVID-19 pandemic and the nationwide uprising for Black lives and police abolition after the murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. In Sept. of that year, we Oregonians also faced poisoned skies choked by millions of acres of burning forest. During this two-week period, the Portland and Salem areas had the worst air quality in the world with Air Quality Index readings literally off of the charts. According to the Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM), at the end of that horrendous wildfire season over one million acres had burned, 40,000 Oregonians evacuated their homes with 500,000 more on an evacuation notice, 4,000 homes had been destroyed and their conservative estimate of the total costs for the wreckage was $380,228,948."

Cashing in on the magic: Will the legalization of Cashing in on the magic: Will the legalization of psychedelic mushrooms just be another corporate gold rush? - Link to full piece in bio: "A renaissance for psychedelic drugs seems to be on the horizon, and we are ahead of the curve here in Oregon as voters approved the legalization of psychedelic psilocybin mushrooms with Measure 109 in 2020. Starting in 2023, the new law allows anyone age 21 or older to access the mushrooms in services for “personal development,” however, it will not have the same legal status as cannabis. So we will not be able to—at least under this current phase of legalization—just stroll into a retail outlet and buy a few grams of magic mushrooms like we currently do with cannabis. Rather, potential users will need to submit to a screening process and then seek the services of a licensed clinic that will offer the psilocybin as an “experience.” While potential psychonauts—explorers of altered states of consciousness—will not need a doctor’s prescription for the services, Oregon’s newly minted Psilocybin Advisory Board has been modeling the fledgling industry after those in one of the only other places psilocybin use is legal: the Netherlands" #psilocybin #psychedelics #psuvanguard https://psuvanguard.com/cashing-in-on-the-magic/
Psychedelics show medical promise: Link to full ar Psychedelics show medical promise: Link to full article in bio - "Almost two years ago, Oregonians overwhelmingly voted to decriminalize possession of most “hard” drugs. Ballot Measure 110 reclassified penalties for possession of various specified drugs such as oxycodone, methamphetamine, PCP, LSD and heroin, to name but a few. But looking beyond politics and the past, we come to the scope of psychedelics and pain management, which is one of the topics at the forefront of research about the properties of psychedelic usage with medical benefits. One of the types of pain that psychedelics have been looked into for treating is chronic pain. Dr. James Carson, a clinical health psychologist at Oregon Health & Science University, put their non-recreational use into perspective. “Research shows that there’s sort of a reset in the brain and it’s very well known now, scientifically, and maybe not so well known by medical providers,” he said. “[Essentially], chronic pain conditions are basically a rewiring of the brain, [as it] echoes the pain condition through the nervous system in a way that makes it very difficult to treat and alter. Chronic pain is a maladaptive neuroplastic change. Maladaptive means it didn’t help and made things worse. Neuroplastic means there was a change in the brain from the constant bombardment of pain signals altering the brain.”" #psychedelics #psilocybin #psuvanguard https://psuvanguard.com/psychedelics-show-medical-promise/

Is US culture changing its mind about psychoactive Is US culture changing its mind about psychoactives? Link to full piece in bio: "Given its history, the use of psilocybin can be complicated, especially as a white person. As Dr. Jason Luoma, psychologist and researcher assisting with MDMA clinical trials, said, “Psilocybin is… complicated because it’s everywhere, but there are these cultural traditions that it’s nested in that are growing out of Indigenous cultures… considering those factors is an important element of being involved in the use of those plants or fungi.” However, psilocybin is far from the only psychedelic that exists. Western scientists synthesized LSD and MDMA, yet their similar properties and healing applications make Indigenous cultures important in considering the use of these as medicines." #psilocybin #psychedelics https://psuvanguard.com/is-us-culture-changing-its-mind-about-psychoactives/
