Howdy vinaigrettes!
*tap tap* Is this thing on?
It’s been a minute since we posted and we have some big updates.
DIY Medicine World Tour
First is that the trailer for our upcoming docu-series is live. Our front man Mixael has been back on his bullshit, traveling across the world to historic anarchist spaces and punk houses giving talks and doing interviews on everything from anarchist history to DIY medicine.

The full doc is releasing later this month, but if you join our Patreon you can see it a little ahead of schedule: https://www.patreon.com/c/mixaelslaufer (This concludes the shilling portion of today’s message)
The documentary touches on:
– Compounding techniques and the trade-offs that emerge when you go from bespoke processes to scaled-up production
– The particularity of synthetic biology and why you sometimes need someone with just the right experience
– Synthesis of hormones in plants and other ways to get HRT
– How the medical establishment fails to deliver on its potential
– Finding your people and getting to work
We’ll also be releasing individual talks with additional content over the coming months, so stay tuned!
Library of the Unfinished
We are also releasing the beta version of our Library of the Unfinished – a collection of papers that we think contain promising avenues for research. If you find yourself wanting to dig into DIY medicine but aren’t sure where to start, take a peek at this archive. There are hundreds of articles and abstracts on a wide variety of topics.

We have more projects and updates coming this year so stay tuned and as always…
Keep each other healthy. Keep each other safe.
