I'm having TMS done for 9 weeks starting at the end of this month for treatment-resistant, endogenous depression. Wish me luck. I'm considering doing a ketamine treatment too.

You're conflating a range of colors with a single color. "In the middle" is red. Red is red. It's not red-orange. It's not red-blue.

Regardless of Ethiopia or #TeamTrees, trees are not fast or permanent enough to sequester anything substantial. Not all tactics will be equally effective. It's worth investing in the approach(es) that are most effective in proof-of-con

That's a rosy, invalid assumption and equivocation. Climate drying, and effectively biome changes in the direction of desertification, across much of western North America and other parts of the world due to climate change isn't c

And no to that too. RDAs try to be one-size-fits-all guesstimates. For Vitamin D3 in particular: "The model developed for UL derivation was summarized in 1998 (IOM, 1998), and it acknowledged that the lack of data would affect the abi

That's what the minimum bar of excellence should be, and it's the same standard for everyone. Americans are more illiterate overall and have a level 5 rate comparable to the global average (which is low compared to top-performin

How would someone control their cortisol levels? Maslow's hierarchy of needs, medical/pharma interventions, and/or something else?

Incorrect. The RDA and TUL amounts for vitamin D are wrong. 10k IU/day is safe. Dr. Fauci takes 6k IU/day. My levels of 25(OH)D3 are optimal. It takes slightly over what the real average TUL should be because of my mass and appare

White text on a blue background are what we used for Wordperfect for DOS in the ye olden days specifically because the white popped out of the background. If this is paradoxically worse, then maybe there is an actual problem. But I would lo

See the stacked bar graph at the bottom of the article. The US is near the bottom and Japan is at the top. I doubt the average American or Japanese person is any more or less intelligent.

In the US, TSCA grandfathered-in thousands of chemicals without any evidence of safety for purely economic reasons. Also, new substances aren't required to be tested for safety beforehand, so it's a "closing the barn door aft

I was shocked when I saw this figure. I assumed it was 8-15% at a lower limit. What this implies is that you can have a substantive intellectual conversation with only roughly 1 in 50 Americans. Update: Think of how stupid the average pers

My vitamin D level is only optimal when taking an average of 11000 IU / day (D3 + K2). It hasn't improved my sleep quality. As an example, I woke up at 3:30 am this morning and feel like I haven't slept at all.

One has to adapt to the biases and reality for survival. Lie about your age if it ever comes up. Lie downward about your experience too. Fuck their discriminatory bullshit.

Ageism is real. It's not some sour grapes of under-performers who let their skills decline, or move or think at a dotard pace. It's essentially "We don't want anyone old because old = bad, new = good."
