That one time I painted a Ukelele really Spooky!

Oh, hello. I almost forgot about this blog. Thankfully, it's still here. It's been a few years since I last posted about brains. Speaking of brains, I did a painting commission for my friend and sometimes co-conspirator Doctor Popular. He wanted his Ukelele to be covered in brains, gore, and other gruesome things, so I obliged.

Incidentally, if you would like to see what I've been up to lately, I have a new website. It also has a blog. But I'm not sure it's better than this one. have a wonderful day, and keep your brain safe.

SO I was reading neuropharmacology papers on Nature.com and came across an article entitled Switching Into A Disassociated State, written by Jake Rogers. I started reading the first paragraph:

“The cellular and circuit mechanisms that produce dissociated states — in which an individual’s internal experiences disconnect from the environment — are unclear. Now, Cichon et al. show that, in mice, ketamine-induced dissociated states are triggered by populations of active or silent cortical pyramidal neurons switching their activity state”

At about the end of the paragraph I spilled my coffee on my desk and all over my keyboard. I didn’t even get to realize that the full article was protected by a subscription wall until 10 minutes after clean-up.

There’s a joke here somewhere.

FAR AWAY COMIC update

Hello true believers. I recently got my hands on a printed version of Doc Pop's Far Away. I was fortunate enough to help Doc with the book, a challenging and rewarding experience. The comic should be available to buy in digital and print versions. You could also check out DocPop's website for more details on this book. Cheers!
