  • Business and government do different things. The government is like the brain of the body, it receives info and dispatches messages to various areas to have the body respond.

    The economy is our blood, it literally transfers resources like food to various areas of the body.

    They do different functions. They do different things. How can you run a brain/nervous system like a circulatory/blood system? They are different and for different things. They mean they want to run the country BY businesses, as if businesses had control, not as if it was its own separate business.

    Further with this analogy, the peripheral nerves are like our communications systems, the lymph is like the military combined with 501cs (mix of attacking and helpful resources, eg vitamins in chylomicrons). And the people are all the individual cells, do their best in their specialized roles and communicating with the brain what needs they have so the brain can dispatch or change things to keep everything running well in homeostasis.

    A group of cells (like a business) who demands too many resources/blood supply will kill other cells. It can be hard for the brain to figure out why cells are dying and may attack the wrong cells to correct it, and give resources to the wrong cells. This is how the US has started to die.


  • You don’t own your land like that, you basically rent it from the government for the price of property taxes, and because you do it that way, you get better protections and deals and things you can do for your “ownership” than a typical tenant/landlord. You also get the money you pay into the mortgage/land when you resell it, another huge advatange over real rentals.

    Whatever you put in the ground, including mercury for gold mining, has broad impacts and we should indeed regulate that for everyone. No one wants mercury in their well water.

    Idk what’s going on with your mom/her county, but usually structures like that just mean the property isn’t able to get financing. What specifically is their issue with her sheds? I’ve never heard of such a thing, even for partially collapsed barns, unless they live in a HOA. And further, why would she pay the COUNTY anything? Are they building it?

    It depends on the state and what you built, but there are people who have entire houses they live in built illegally. Property just can’t be insured and can only be sold for cash. They dont get fines though.


  • Corporations wont let us have Medicare for All - why? Why do they ALL lobby so hard against it? It would make their costs cheaper, right? They wouldn’t have to pay for our health insurance. Plus we could get medicines so we can be at work more instead of home sick or spreading sickness at work. So it must not be cheaper in some way for them to have Medicare for All - right? Why do they think it would be more expensive for THEM if we all had public health care?

    Because that would detect cancer (and toxins) and allow us to class action sue companies for them. Can’t sue if it was never detected. Thats why they find carcinogens and lead in kids’ products so much - their products dont have more lead in them, but kids all can be on Medicaid and that catches it. Flint, MI, water poisoning was detected by a kid on Medicaid.

    They don’t want us to all have healthcare because that is public science and it will absolutely detect what theyve been lying and poisoning us with. It would probably destroy all the big companies like Nestle, Johnson&Johnson, Colgate, etc…

  • “All else being equal,” it’s not equal though, that’s what I’m saying. Our legs have electrical and muscular aids in them which make them unlike a lever completely.

    You shortened it down to simplify a complex topic. I’m pointing out it’s not that simple and it’s okay to learn more. As we age we should keep up with learning dense subjects to keep up our neuroplastocity, and it’s a social virtue. Right now I’ve been learning about electrobiochemistry for instance. You can just download textbooks. Please stop committing to simplicity when reality is complex.

    Physiology wouldn’t encapsulate a huge subject and multiple specialty fields (physiologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, medical technologists, physical educators, surgeons, biomedical engineers) if it was simple physics. We wouldn’t need all the other muscles and junk if it was all simple physics. It’s not. It’s a highly complicated series of biochemical, magnetic, electrical, energetic, and physical properties that work against and with each other



  • This isn’t totally true (about longer limbs=harder to exercise), because it doesnt take into account how myosin works on a longer muscle/surface area, along with how electrical differences between limbs and the torso help with electrical flow due to potential energy.

    Look at a thoroughbred (fastest over medium distance), an Arabian (best for endurance), a quarter horse (fastest in burst over short distance) versus a donkey (stronger pound for pound than a horse but not faster), vs a mule (stronger than horse, faster than donkey). Keep in mind there’s different types of muscle development, eg burst vs long distance. Look at their legs. They are walking on (1) finger, look at where their ankle is. Their feet, like many animals, are angled completely differently than humans. Elephants have a similar foot to humans in that their sole contacts the ground, but obviously their feet don’t extend like ours (and they have bigger muscles). So it is interesting but I think theres more to it



  • Yeah you know how priests aren’t usually really good guys? Turns out that 501c leaders are the same ig

    Also there are a lot of weird Diddy/Ashton clips, REALLY WEIRD clips about what he’s said and done with Mila when she was a minor (don’t even get me started*), and other stuff on like Pranked about counting down until girls were 18 even when they were minors. It’s just a LOT of weird shit altogether.

    • Sorry. That Mila married him after being groomed doesn’t absolve anything and further it should be considered soft core child porn, and illegal to produce, anything that involves physical romantic touch including “platonic” hugs. These kids are getting molested with pervy directors making them do scenes repeatedly that they can write themselves. Dan Schneider making Amanda Bynes do her first kiss ever, over and over again on set in front of everyone while everyone laughs - WHY?

    Why must children be compelled to kiss in theater or TV? If it’s needed, do a shadow puppet thing or forced perspective where they aren’t actually kissing. It’s fucking weird and it should be outlawed. Just like how some old movies are ruined because it’s obvious animals were abused on set, I can barely stomach some of the shows from my childhood because I KNOW they took advantage. I don’t even want to link scenes to make my point or list many shows because I feel like it’s making a porn list. It’s just sickening to hear Ashton say some of the things he did about Mila. Ugh





  • Mushrooms are a good option, and you can just make up a species if you want specific time frames/symptoms. Mushrooms can cause a lot of weird symptoms.

    There’s also a brain eating amoeba or other sickness from still water (people back in the day were very aware of tainted water).

    If you have access to polar animals, a unique poisoning would be vitamin A toxicity from their livers. It’s a horrific way to die, though (skin sloughing off).
