MarkAdley @markadley.bsky.social · 13/03/2026It was only a few years ago that I thought academics talked about things like ontology and epistemology to confuse us mere mortals. This blog is aimed at me a few years back, perhaps a practical example might explain things.

MarkAdley @markadley.bsky.social · 26/02/2025Sign me up for a blind test (dosage ½ mug) and I would be pretty darn certain of a 100% success rate! Lots of factors at play though in individual effects - for sure. 020
MarkAdley @markadley.bsky.social · 26/02/2025On that we agree. However if - as you suggest - it doesn’t have any effect that shouldn’t be an issue. I would certainly caution any 12-step folks about it. Dosage may also play a part in effects, of course. I say hats off to Prof. Nutt for this gem. 010
MarkAdley @markadley.bsky.social · 26/02/2025I beg to differ! It may well have been placebo but I really felt this. Having said that I’ve had about 1 unit of alcohol in about 3 years so that may play a part. I enjoyed it that much I stopped buying it! 🙄 010
