Has anyone else felt that time doesn’t feel normal anymore? Days disappear, weeks blur together. Everything is moving so fast, something is off.

Are you noticing it too?

[Johnny @biojohnny5]

Here’s how your diet should change for the winter season:

Eat more:
• Potatoes & root vegetables
• Red meat, eggs, butter, ghee
• Bone broth & gelatin
• Berries, apples, cranberries
• Salt & honey before bed
• Warm liquids (milk, broth, coffee with cream)

Eat less:
• Coconut water, pineapple, mango
• Cold smoothies
• Excess fruit juice

Winter isn’t just colder. It’s darker, slower, and drier. Your metabolism shifts with the light. When sunlight drops, dopamine and thyroid output fall, and your body naturally moves from burn mode to preserve mode. You’re not supposed to fight that rather you should support it.

Grounding foods hit different this time of year. Potatoes, red meat, butter, and broth deliver minerals, collagen, and fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, K2) that your body stops producing as sunlight fades. They keep your metabolism stable when the cold normally slows it down.

This is also the time to pull back on tropical foods. Coconut water, mango, pineapple which are all loaded with deuterium, a heavier form of hydrogen that slows mitochondrial energy flow. In summer, this isn’t a problem because sunlight provides the energy your cells need to process it. UV exposure and longer days increase your metabolic capacity, so your body can handle higher-deuterium foods. But in winter, with less sunlight and slower metabolism, they can weigh you down.

And don’t overlook sleep. Shorter days aren’t an inconvenience, they’re a signal. Almost every animal sleeps more in the winter. Obviously we’re not bears, but our biology still shifts the same way. Darkness increases melatonin and lowers cortisol. Fighting that rhythm with late nights and blue light wrecks recovery. Let yourself sleep longer, nine hours isn’t lazy, it’s seasonal alignment.

Warm drinks instead of iced smoothies. Local fruits instead of tropical choices. Go to bed earlier, wake with the sun, and give your body the rest it’s asking for.

You’re not meant to eat, sleep, or live like it’s July in December. Your biology changes with the season. Let your habits change with it.

[The Biblical Man @Biblicalman]

Joseph of Arimathea took down a corpse.

Hands still sticky with blood.

Skin already cold.

Touched death. Held it. Wrapped it.

Became ceremonially unclean for Passover.

For a dead man.

Here's what most Christians miss about the burial of Jesus:

Joseph was a wealthy man. A member of the Sanhedrin. A respected Jew.

And Passover was 3 hours away.

The holiest day of the year.

But he climbed Golgotha anyway.

Jewish law was clear:

Touch a dead body = unclean for 7 days.

Can't worship. Can't celebrate. Can't enter the temple.

Joseph knew this.

He'd spent his entire life following these laws.

But Jesus was still hanging on that cross.

Picture it:

The crowds are gone. The soldiers drunk. The women weeping.

Joseph approaches Pilate—the man who just murdered his Lord—and asks permission.

"Can I have the body?"

Pilate grants it.

Now Joseph has to actually DO it.

He walks to Golgotha.

Blood-soaked dirt. The smell of death. Three crosses against the sky.

Jesus in the middle.

Still.

Finally still.

Joseph climbs the ladder.

Grabs the first nail.

Pulls.

Feel the weight of that moment.

God's body in your arms.

The blood isn't dry yet.

It stains his expensive robes.

His hands.

Under his fingernails.

He can taste the iron in the air.

This is what obedience looks like.

Messy. Expensive. Permanent.

Nicodemus shows up.

Another secret disciple. Another Sanhedrin member.

He brings 75 pounds of myrrh and aloes.

That's about $150,000 worth of burial spices in today's money.

Two wealthy men. Two cowards until now.

Finally brave when it's already too late.

They work fast.

Sabbath is coming. They have maybe 3 hours.

Wrap the body. Pour the spices. Seal the tomb.

The sun is setting.

Joseph is now officially unclean.

Can't celebrate Passover tomorrow.

Can't enter the temple for a week.

Think about what he just gave up:

His ceremonial purity.

His Passover celebration.

His reputation (everyone saw him bury a "blasphemer").

His position (the Sanhedrin won't forget this).

His safety (Romans might come for disciples next).

All for a dead man.

But here's what most Christians miss:

Joseph didn't do this expecting resurrection.

He did it expecting NOTHING.

Jesus was dead. Gone. Finished.

This wasn't faith in resurrection.

This was love for a corpse.

That's the part that wrecks me.

Joseph touched death—literally—knowing it meant giving up everything.

Not because Jesus promised him anything.

But because Jesus deserved honor even in death.

Modern Christianity wants clean obedience.

Safe obedience.

Obedience that doesn't cost you Passover.

But Joseph shows us something different:

True discipleship gets your hands dirty.

You want to follow Jesus?

Then stop avoiding the messy parts.

Stop waiting for clean opportunities.

Stop demanding that obedience be convenient.

Joseph climbed Golgotha when everyone else went home.

He wrapped a corpse when he could've stayed clean.

He missed the holiest day of his life to honor a dead "criminal."

He risked everything when there was no visible reward.

That's not religion.

That's worship.

The twist?

Three days later, that tomb was empty.

Joseph gave his grave to Jesus.

Jesus left it empty.

Forever.

Joseph thought he was burying God.

He was actually setting the stage for resurrection.

Your messy obedience?

God's using it too.

Even when you can't see it.

So here's the question:

What are you avoiding because it's too messy?

What obedience are you postponing because it's inconvenient?

What grave are you unwilling to give?

Joseph of Arimathea held death in his arms.

Got blood on his hands.

Missed Passover.

Lost his reputation.

And earned his name in all four Gospels.

Religion says "stay clean."

Discipleship says "get dirty."

Joseph chose discipleship.

What are you choosing?

[The Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox]

Bombshell vax vs. unvax study finally sees the light of day — and the results are staggering.

Dr. Marcus Zervos led the study, but he decided not to publish it because “publishing something like that, I might as well retire. I’d be finished.”

Here’s what the study revealed:

• Vaccinated children were 4.29 times more likely to have asthma.

• Three times higher risk for atopic diseases (like eczema).

• Nearly six times higher risk for autoimmune disorders — a category that includes over 80 different diseases.

• 5.5 times higher risk for neurodevelopmental disorders.

• 2.9 times more motor disabilities.

• 4.5 times more speech disorders.

• Three times more developmental delays.

• Six times more acute and chronic ear infections.

• In nearly 2,000 unvaccinated children, there were ZERO cases of ADHD, diabetes, behavioral problems, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, tics, or other psychological disorders.

• The study’s conclusion is devastating. It states: “[I]n contrast to our expectations, we found that exposure to vaccination was independently associated with an overall 2.5-fold INCREASE in the likelihood of developing a chronic health condition when compared to children unexposed to vaccination.”

Jesus died for us

Was tortured for us

He is a gift to broken humans

He is a teacher for the lost

He suffered so we can be forgiven

Jesus is love

Jesus is LORD

[LIZ CROKIN @LizCrokin]

Charlie Kirk was assassinated by a skilled sniper in a sophisticated operation.

Charlie was murdered at a secure event in broad daylight where he was surrounded by security. There’s no way this was not a professional hit executed by a team. The question is what entity was behind it!

Do not let them fool you into believing this was a lone wolf operation like they tried to do with the Las Vegas shooting.

[Michael Knowles @michaeljknowles]

Charlie Kirk would have been president. His friends knew it. His admirers knew it. And his enemies knew it.

This universal confidence in Charlie’s future began with his countless political accomplishments. At 18, he founded Turning Point USA, which went on to become the most important cultural organization on the American Right. By 22, he was addressing the Republican National Convention. Three years later, he founded Turning Point Action, which led the get-out-the-vote efforts that delivered the first Republican popular vote victory in twenty years. In his spare time, Charlie published five books, hosted a national talk show, married a lovely wife, and fathered two beautiful children. All of that by 31.

Charlie’s appearance inspired as much confidence as his accomplishments. At a towering six-foot-five slouching, he joked that he had descended from the Nephilim—the giant “fallen ones” of the Old Testament. He might have been born with such a nature, as are we all, but he was not content to remain so. Charlie loved his Savior. The zeal with which he debated politics paled in comparison to the excitement with which he discussed religion. And his religious life bore fruit.

Turning Point launched a Faith division to focus specifically on his followers’ souls. There too, Charlie’s enthusiasm for open debate set the tone, as he invited atheists and even Catholics to take part. But he didn’t need a specific religious conference to convey his faith. Charlie Kirk’s religion bore fruit in everything he did.

Discerning observers believed in Charlie Kirk, not chiefly for his accolades or his appearance, but for his manifest virtue. Charlie’s prudence, the principal virtue in politics, built a generational coalition that helped to transform the American government. His temperance distinguished him as one of the few on the Right to eschew whisky, cigars, and every other delight that might have distracted him from his purpose, for which he had so little time. His sense of justice produced clarity in moral vision and grace for his opponents. His fortitude impelled him to enter the public square without a hint of servile fear.

Charlie’s only fear was the holy sort—awe and wonder, the beginning of wisdom—and his clearest virtues were theological: faith, hope, and charity. We mourn his death, we take up his cause, and we entrust him, as he confidently entrusted himself, to God’s care.

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

"When you tear out a man's tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what he might say".

My thoughts are with Charlie Kirk's family.

[FischerKing @FischerKing64]

They killed a 31 year old father of two whose only crime was to go to university campuses and engage in good faith with people who disagreed with him. If this isn’t a wake up call then we’re never going to wake up.
