While you're correct, my freakout lies in the fact that microplastics have been found to bypass the blood brain barrier... https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-024-03453-1

Somewhat related (submarine war movie), is Crimson Tide with Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman. I can't vouch for the military accuracy, but can say that the drama and intensity is one of best i've seen.

I wish this article covered the more nefarious side of these organizations and "Coaches". Broken families, ruined relationships etc... Here's the quick and dirty of my brother. Full disclosure, I have not attended any Wright

I have read three of his books so far - Snow crash, Cryptonomincon, and Seveneves. By far his most fully formed and epic book for me has been Seveneves. It is hardcore Sci-Fi at an epic scale both in world building and time. I got 700 pages

FWIW I've had a lot of success with this neat little device: https://getbrick.app/ $40 and no subscription. No affiliation with the founders (who I believe have bootstrapped their business).

I dont have data to support this, but I can't help but feel that increasingly America has a habit of "pendulum" swinging around societal issues. That is, we severely overcorrect (often time a little too late) that also has th
