A lot of people don't know this, but Amazon is used (without their consent) as a massive money laundering funnel where government agencies buy overpriced goods sold by "vendors" via Amazon, and the vendor gives a kickback to the government decision maker who made the purchase.

That's how you end up with $20,000 printers and $15,000 blenders, etc. It's all government money laundering through Amazon.

It's not Amazon's doing, of course. They aren't pushing this. They do make a percentage, however.

You can brainwash yourself into liking the gym, and the work you keep putting off. The people who do these things every day aren't forcing it. It feels easy to them, and you can do the same.

The thing stopping you usually isn't laziness. It's that the action feels heavy before you start. Your brain guesses how bad something will feel, and it guesses high, so the dread shows up before the gym does. But the dread isn't about the gym. It's about your brain's guess, and a guess can be changed. You change it by running the whole thing in your head first, in detail, before you do it for real. Walk through the action in your mind enough times, paired with a light and easy feeling, and your brain stops expecting misery.

There's a physical reason this works. When you vividly imagine moving, the same brain circuits that fire during real movement fire too, the signal travels almost all the way to your muscles, then gets cut off right before it moves them. Those circuits get stronger with repetition whether the reps are real or imagined. People who only imagined practicing piano ended up with nearly the same brain changes as the ones who actually played. So when you finally do the thing, it isn't foreign. You've done it before, in a way, so it's easier to do for real.

Here's how to actually do it.

Get in a comfortable position and close your eyes. Pick a trigger that already happens every day, like your alarm going off or closing your laptop at the end of a shift. Tying the new behavior to something that's already there is the part that matters most. Once the link is built, the alarm fires the behavior automatically, the same way a smell can drop you into a memory before you've decided anything.

Then run the action from inside your own eyes, not watching yourself from across the room.

For the gym: hear the alarm, feel yourself getting up before you can talk yourself out of it, your clothes going on, walking out to the car in the cold, the drive there, the gym door, the smell of the place. Then the weight in your hands, the bar, your breathing picking up, the burn in the middle of a set, and you just keep going.

For work: feel yourself sitting down at your desk, your coffee next to you, looking at the task without it feeling like too much, picking the first small piece, and starting it instead of reaching for your phone.

By the time you actually go, you've already done it in your head dozens of times, so it doesn't feel like starting from zero. The first move gets easier the more you run it.

27 to 33 is the age where every decision you made in your early 20s starts showing up.

You see couples either deeply in love or filing for divorce.

You see people immersed in work they love or trapped in work they hate.

You see some people become bitter and others become hopeful.

None of the decisions felt like much at the time.

But it all starts to show up here.

The life you live today is based on an accumulation of all your past decisions. Be very intentional with the decisions you're making right now.

27-33 is a wake-up call, but it doesn't have to dictate the rest of your future.

[Fiona Rose Diamond @CoviLeaks]

Yes, we did. And people want to forget all too quickly exactly who they were during that time. For two solid, torturous years, it was a daily gauntlet of weaponised hate, threats, being spat at, and hostile stares. Buses refused to stop because I stood there unmasked. I was accosted off the Tube, verbally abused in supermarkets, and snitched on by pathetic shoppers while security tried to throw me out.

I stood my damn ground and refused to obey their stickered arrows. Every single day was filled with spite and ignorance from low-IQ masses who genuinely believed the 'virus' paused while they sat with a pint, but became lethal the moment they walked to the pub toilet without a mask. I never gave a single detail to 'track and trace.'

And that was just the cost of surviving daily life - not even counting the grueling campaign work I did at mass vax centres or the community outreach I pushed through multple times per week. The raw hate and abuse we took out there was a different level of vicious. And the absolute most heartbreaking part? We did it because we actually wanted to save your lives...

For refusing the jab, we were banned from events, barred from venues, and blocked from travel - though I had my sneaky ways around that, too. Millions of you should be utterly ashamed for joining the mob. Tens of millions took those injections because you wanted a trip to Benidorm, a music festival, or simply because you lacked the spine to handle the heat of doing the right thing.

Every single one of you who joined the ignorant hate-mob and behaved that way is still a problem - even if most of you lie about who you truly were back then. It is hardwired into you. Your default setting during that time is who you really are. That's the truth.

[Ross 🧬🔬 @GutOptimized]

My experience with women's health clients taught me how little many doctors know about female hormones and women's health.

Many women with significant hormonal issues are referred for hormonal blood panels either with no instruction when in the month to take the test or told to test follicular phase. Making data useless.

Treatment outcomes are usually pain relief or birth control, so requests for further investigation are dismissed - because it won't change treatment outcome in physicians mind.

Any concept of systems physiology, gut health, particular nutrients and so on, being relevant to painful periods or otherwise is not considered.

This lack of knowledge is then amplified x 100 when it comes to perimenopause, and particularly, early onset perimenopause.

But often the journey with issues around perimenopause starts years earlier when every single warning sign was dodged and jumped over, or just simply not even understood, by treating physicians.

If you need incandescent bulbs in the EU/UK, just look for “rough service” bulbs.

Rough-service incandescent bulbs are made with a thicker tungsten filament and extra support wires to withstand vibration and knocks. They are made for industrial and trade use (machinery, inspection lamps, trailers) where a normal bulb's fragile filament would snap.

Due to the rugged filament, these bulbs are a little dimmer per Watt (roughly 450 to 620 lumens vs about 700 for the old 60W).

The most important health-related characteristics are color temperature and the blackbody spectrum; you can think of these as approximations of the amounts of red and near-infrared output. The loss of red and near-infrared light is the main issue with LEDs. Incandescents are around 2700k, and rough service bulbs run only 100-200k cooler, so they are almost identical in that regard.

There are also rough service LEDs, so make sure you are getting incandescents.

Note: flicker can be an issue with LEDs, but this is a driver issue, not LED tech. The core issue is the black body spectrum, the relative loss of red, and particularly the beneficial near-infrared.

[The Culturist @the_culturist_]

In the Inferno, lying is actually considered worse than murder.

Sins of passion or weakness of will are punished less severely than fraud or malice — sins of perverted will.

Why? Becoming a slave to your physical passions is bad, but corrupting the mind is much worse. The corruption of the highest faculty (the intellect, a divine gift) is what leads to the greatest evils.

It is more human to sin out of uncontrolled desire. But lying is a calculated betrayal of Truth. It divorces the mind from reality.

There will come a time in your life when you will ask yourself a series of questions

Am I happy with who I am?
Am I happy with the people around me?
Am I happy with what I'm doing?
Am I happy with the way my life is going?
Do I have a life, or am I just living?

Do not let these questions strain or trouble you. Just point yourself in the direction of your dreams and make your transition.

Do not spend too much time thinking and not enough doing.

Did I try the hardest at any of my dreams?
Did I purposely let others discourage me when I knew I could?
Will I die never knowing what I could have been or could have done?

Do not let these doubts restrain or trouble you. Just point yourself in the direction of your dreams and make your transition.

There will be people who say you can't, but you will.

There will be people who say you don't mix this with that, and you will say, "Watch me."

There will be people who will say play it safe, that's too risky, but you will take that chance and have no fear.

You won't let these questions restrain or trouble you.
You will point yourself in the direction of your dreams and make your transition.

For those who know it's time to leave the house and go back to the field.

Point yourself in the direction of your dreams and make your transition.

[Path of Men @PathOfMen_]

Stop spending your best years indoors. There's a whole actual world out there with real people, real experiences, real memories waiting to be made. You cannot look back on your 20s and be proud of the hours you wasted on screens in a dark room. Go outside. Talk to people. Feel things. You were not put on this earth to spectate life.

[Path of Men @PathOfMen_]

Being shy as a man is a waste of time and life. Every conversation you did not start, every room you stood quietly in, every girl you watched walk away, every opportunity that went to the guy who took action — that is the real cost of shyness and it compounds over years. Confidence is not a personality trait you are born with. It is a muscle you build by repeatedly doing the uncomfortable thing until it stops being uncomfortable.

[Collin Cleary @collin_cleary]

Harvard political scientist Robert Putnam studied diversity and came to conclusions that surprised him: “Diversity seems to trigger not in-group/out-group division, but anomie or social isolation. In colloquial language, people living in ethnically diverse settings appear to ‘hunker down’ – that is, to pull in like a turtle.” Putnam’s research shows that in diverse “communities” people become less trustful even of members of their own group. Distrust, isolation, and a general hardening and callousness toward others increases.
In short, sentiments such as sympathy, the very basis of morality, weaken and atrophy the more “diverse” society becomes. The only alternative for those who advocate multiculturalism (or who perceive it as in their interests) is to lecture us all with abstract moral principles about the necessity of coming together and cooperating (while simultaneously, of course, proclaiming that which divides us as our greatest strength). But this approach presupposes that morality is a matter of following abstract rules. The truth, however, is that in moral judgment sentiments come first, and “reasons” follow. Unable to rely upon sentiments-based morality to bind people together in multicultural societies and make them behave, governments have to resort more and more to surveillance and policing. It is difficult to see how such societies are sustainable, and impossible to see how they are desirable.

[Jack @jack_schroder_]

Fluoroquinolones (eg., ciprofloxacin) are bio-weapons hidden in disguise as antibiotics.

They act to kill bacterial cells, but that's the trojan horse, the main target is your mitochondria.

They are mitochondrial toxins, by disrupting enzymes related to mtDNA replication (topoisomerase IV + DNA gyrase), which leads to heavily mutated mtDNA where your mitochondria don't work well anymore.

They are lipophilic, so they enter your cells and pass through your blood-brain-barrier with ease.

Oh, and of course they happen to have potential NMDA receptor agonism as a "off-target" effect.

If that's not enough, they also have antagonistic effects at inhibitory GABA-A receptors.

They contain fluoride which inhibits ATP production and induces mitochondrial dysfunction, whilst disrupting thyroid hormone production.

They bind important minerals like magnesium and copper.

Because of all this, they have the potential to induce encephalopathy, peripheral neuropathy, seizures, myasthenia gravis, and even psychosis or delirium in certain studies. Your brain contain some of the highest mitochondrial density out of all the organs in your body, second to the heart.

And of course the heart is another target. Beyond mitochondrial dysfunction, within the cardiovascular system, fluoroquinolones happen to block voltage-gated potassium channels which causes heart arrhythmias, and potentially worse.

It seems that have this potassium channel blocking effect in other cells like pancreatic beta cells to induce hypoglycemia in rare cases. I wouldn't be surprised if this also occurs in the nervous system to further induce excitotoxicity.

They also upregulate MMP enzymes which destroy your #1 semiconductor, being collagen — leading to disorganized networks that can't leverage their piezo-, flexo-, and pyro-electric properties, alongside shuttling energy/information in the form of electricity. This is also why tendinitis tends to show up quite commonly in those who are "floxxed"

Gut infections, blue light/nnEMFs, and environmental toxins make the gut lining and blood-brain-barrier leaky; this further induces chronic inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, neurotransmitter dysregulation, and more. They all synergize together perfectly.

The worst part? Antibiotics like fluoroquinolones don't penetrate biofilms, and most individuals with chronic gut issues tend to have robust biofilms.

What negatively occurs here is 3-fold:
1/ you don't kill off the infection in the first place
2/ you further destroy your potentially beneficial flora that's not embedded in biofilms
3/ you take more rounds of antibiotics to deal with the infection, and this further reinforces the same cycle

...all the while you continue to destroy your mitochondria.

[Master Metabolism @lowmegatron]

When I had appendicitis, they tried to give me Ciprofloxacin. This class of antibiotics is a potent mitochondrial toxin. I asked for other antibiotics, but I was told they wouldn’t work. I asked for another doctor, and they said other antibiotics probably wouldn’t work. Neither could explain why they had that opinion. I told them to try other antibiotics. The nurse returned with the antibiotic… it was Cipro. I didn’t notice until about 30 seconds into the IV. I got them to take it out quickly. The other antibiotics worked just fine.
