melian dream log i had just been hired and was in training as line cook at german “high cuisine” restaurant, in thrall to rail-thin, heavily tattooed female chef who looked and dressed like a minor character from the first matrix film at first, i excelled at preparing one weisswurst/sauerkraut dish but was continuously frustrated by application of sauce for another, a sort of tiny and delicate beef tartar that required a mustard/egg emulsion… i would have to delicately prepare the emulsion, then add it to the plate with a plastic squeeze bottle: every time, sauce drenched the dish and would overflow and spray everywhere

Kabbalah Harris. She keeps doing a vaguely As Above, So Below' gesture with the 'unburdened by what has been...' sound byte.

Australia is so peculiar to me. My instant reaction if I think of an Australian man is honestly someone who's as tough as nails. Years ago, hanging with some Australian nationalists, this was confirmed. I feel like it just goes with the territory, sharks in the water, deadly snakes, spiders the size of Volkswagens. How did they end up with the most shitlib government?

I tried and failed once again today. How in holy hell does anyone listen to an entire @stutteringjohnm podcast all the way through? Even after skipping all of the political BS, I cannot do it!

‘Australia must consider bringing back conscription as ‘all-out war’ with Russia looms’ Extremely galling when you consider that Australia is blindly allied with one of the world’s most aggressive war mongers, the US. Doubly galling when you consider the US’s role in provoking the Ukraine/Russia conflict, from Victoria Nuland & Co.’s involvement in the 2014 Ukraine colour revolution, to the US urging Ukraine NATO membership, which was Putin’s clearly stated red line, to the US goading Zelensky to reject peace deals (after he ran on a peace platform) and instead charging headfirst into a conflict they couldn’t win. They’re playing chess and we are the pawns.

@dystopian_DU I've had a totally different experience with carnivore; it made my reflux much better. I did keto for a few months first, though, and eased the non-meat foods out slowly.

Carnivore Day 7. I have had to abandon the experiment due to a nasty case of gastritis. I have an extremely touchy stomach and as I've been hospitalised a couple of times with gastritis, I have learned over the years to listen to that sort of pain and back off accordingly. At around day 2 of trying out this carnivore experiment (all meats and eggs, nothing else), I started getting acid reflux, not just after meals, but all the time. It didn't subside. By day 4 I simply could not digest any more meat (even though I was only eating when hungry and never past full) and the gag reflex was so intense I just fasted (except for a cup of broth), but of course fasting is the worst thing to do when you have too much bile. Day 5 I still couldn't get meat/fish or eggs down, so I decided to relax a bit and have a little bit of fruit, dairy and honey. That made me able to stomach some fatty pork belly in the evening, but I still had bad acid reflux and my stomach was hurting a bit. Day 6 after eating a bit of meat my stomach started really hurting and I developed proper gastritis and had a terrible night with it. Day 7, my stomach still hurts too much to even contemplate eating any form of meat, fish or eggs, so I am taking my body's very loud and clear message and backing off. The reasons I persisted so long are: a) I wanted to see if this diet would do for me what others say it does for them - boundless energy, pain relief, total clarity of mind - and was willing to push through discomfort to give it a proper go. b) I couldn't tell if my body cues were temporary and/or just psychological hurdles, or if it was really a NO. Turns out, it was a NO, my body is not coping with such an extreme change right now. I'm transitioning now to a focus on low oxalates, with HFLC to see how that feels. I'm comfortable with HFLC but have never consciously minimised oxalates at the same time. I'm open to trying carnivore again if I feel the need, but next time I would work up to it much more slowly and see how I go. If I notice any pain relief with a low oxalate approach, I will do an update here, as some of you mentioned you have similar problems and were interested in following along with my progress. Thanks to everyone who encouraged me through my first attempt at the carnivore diet, I appreciate all the moral support and advice!

@Private_JKR @crayvenrayven @MasalaFry69 No coincidence that The Crown's Belt & Road is designed to run right through Gaza. I smell a shining brand spanking new Smart City, and an ostensibly "Free Palestine" as a leading example for global Marxism. From physical checkpoints and fences to electronic checkpoints & fences.

I'm watching Uncut Gems and I'm pretty sure there's a little callout to Short Term 12, did anyone else notice it?

@fulovitboss I hear this sort of thing all the time. "I've had five shots now. Weird multi-day side effects after each one. I still got covid twice, and it sucked. I'm getting another shot next week plus a flu shot"

Met someone today who has had 5 c-vid jabs. He is 66years old and fit for his age. His words during our conversation.. “My doctor said the boosters are worth getting” “I always feel off for a while after each jab but that’s pretty normal.” “I’ve been sick more than usual last few years. Just run down flu stuff though” “I’m taking all these new vitamins and Japanese herbs. They are helping” Yeah ok. #CatchingOnYet

@escapefrommelos The American is immunized against all dangers: One may call him colonizer, racist, ignoramus, profane, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But mention corn syrup and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back

Shake together equal parts vanilla vodka and amaretto with ice. It's called a 'nilla wafer, but it tastes more like marzipan
