I've loved your work on Conspirituality and your early essay on Charles Eisenstein's enormous Covidian pretensions – and respected the grace with which you conversed with him and allowed him gently not to answer anything. I love your skating stories and your challenges to Derek and Julian.

Your insight a few weeks back on the projections we have given to teachers who we have put on pedestals was really helpful to me – as I had a terminal rift with my supervisor (I’m a psychotherapist) who I thought was on my side, and went down the conspiracy rabbit hole. I didn’t shout at him in the street, but we exchanged emails and Zoom words that can’t be taken back.

All of that, and I think this piece is my favourite of yours. I know little about astrology but the way you describe your journey is moving and beautiful and gives me strength in my renewed scepticism. Thanks.
