Octopuses Rolling on Molly

     by Kathleen Hellen

Gül Dölen, Ph.D., assistant professor at Johns Hopkins University, says when octopuses are on MDMA, it's like watching "an eight-armed hug."

Alarms turn off, the neural circuits open up——

Usually I lounge with sponges, loosejaws/jellies. Plunge, squish to

she seems lovely, so does he, emotions shared by bees and crabs and sea slugs (humans?).
A hunger unfamiliar bathed in psychoactive drugs, not to be confused with
love but awfully touchy-feely.
