Wild how @MindMedicineAU can't mute ppls mics in a large webinar, but as soon as they saw me in the meeting, booted me out 2x, for nothing 💀. I didn't even comment on the absurdity of Peter aggressively telling people to ignore any critical researchers.

(1/3) #PitchFestival was cut short due to extreme fire danger. Thousands of festival-goers had to evacuate. But instead of getting people out safely, @VictoriaPolice prioritised drug testing people on the roads leading out of the festival. #pilltesting #drugchecking #auspol

Great, so we're doing estimated 'street values' for seized vapes now. Tune in next week for 'record seizures show our plan is working', 'landed another decisive blow against organised crime', and other fact-free furphys from the prohibition crowd. theguardian.com/society/2024/j…

There is a concept known as "drug seizure porn". You know the deal: guns, drug and money in a photo next to a story about a massive drug seizure. However, this is new: vapes. We are not really sure how to categorise this!?! #AODMediaWatch #drugs #lawenforcement #media #journalism

@Kgreenstien It is still advertising directly to patients. The Australian code allows direct advertising to referring specialists, but not to patients themselves (cf advertising for prescription medications in Australia vs the USA where there are no such restrictions on advertising )

@stephenjbright Ah interesting - I got this info by email. I must have signed up at some point so maybe because of that it’s not strictly “public” advertising

Psychedelic/MDMA therapy at Monarch clinic in Australia will cost $25,000 or $19,000 if no private insurance. This includes 12 psychotherapy sessions with 3 psychedelic dosing sessions (of 6-8 hours duration). Is anyone aware of other Australian clinics with pricing out?

@samuelxgarcia @Kgreenstien Indeed! There is a pill testing debate happening here right now after more MDMA deaths, so it is a very weird juxtaposition that says something about the Australian class system, which apparently isn't a "thing" here x.com/AODMediaWatch/…
AOD Media Watch@AODMediaWatch

EXEMPLAR: Great story on #pilltesting by @heyracheddie via @theage featuring @AshBinAus and @ssdp_australia! The fact that Victoria prohibits official pill testing, despite similar monitoring of drugs occurring, is ridiculous and hypocritical. theage.com.au/politics/victo…

@Kgreenstien At the same time those two substances are criminalized, isn't it? This is completely unethical & the cost is immoral Protocols pre-establishing the # of dosed sessions just indicate that they're calculating profits, that # should be clinically adapted ad hoc for each patient

@m_wall Wondering if this could be considered a breach of the TGA advertising code? I've heard that the TGA are actively trying to avoid having a situation like that with medicinal cannabis where they can't get the toothpaste back in the tube.

History in the making - this is the first 'normal' (i.e. not in a clinical trial) script written in the modern era for psychedelic assisted therapy (180mg of MDMA) by Dr Ted Cassidy in Melbourne, Australia. More details here: linkedin.com/posts/tedcassi…
