Massachusetts introduced a millionaire tax. In 2023, 41,000 residents left the state taking $4.2 billion with them. 70% of that came from the top tax bracket. Money moves. Always has. Always will.

Let's go to Australia. The Lyrebird can perfectly imitate almost any sound it hears... not just other animals, but human-made machines. We're not talking rough copies. We'ree talking near-perfect cloning. There are recorded cases where a lyrebird has mimicked chainsaws, camera shutters, car alarms, construction equipment, multiple bird species layered into one continuous performance and so on. You want to know what's more amazing, it doesn't just copy sounds one by one. It can sequence and remix them, creating long, structured "performances" that sound like an entire environment playing at once. Males are better at this because they do it to establish territory and attract mates. The better and more complex the sound, the better their chance of getting laid.

Dr. Andrew Huberman just confirmed a “wild conspiracy theory” about incandescent lights and LED bulbs. The long wavelengths found in incandescents increase your metabolism and “charge your mitochondria.” Conversely, the LED bulbs that most of you have in your house are “causing disruptions in mitochondrial function.” DR. ANDREW HUBERMAN: “Your mitochondria function better, you increase ATP production, your metabolism increases in the presence of red light, long wavelength light to the skin.” “Shine long wavelength light on somebody, watch blood glucose levels in a blood glucose test, and it’s blunted.” “Now, the LED lights that are commonly used now… that short wavelength light, in the absence of long wavelength light, has been shown to damage the mitochondria.” “This used to be considered crazy. This was like chemtrail crazy, right?” “But now we’re starting to see from animal studies and human studies, from Glenn Jeffreys and others, that people’s vision gets better when they get in front of an incandescent bulb once a day.” “If they get sunlight, which also has long-wavelength light, your vision improves because of improvements in mitochondria.” The Biden administration quietly pushed incandescents out of the market through aggressive energy regulations. But you can still find them online today if you look hard enough. If that health insight stood out to you, there’s a lot more where that came from.

Internationally recognized neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman reveals a surprising trick to help you fall back asleep when you wake up in the middle of the night. “I can’t promise, but I’m willing to wager… that within five minutes or so, you’ll be back to sleep.”

Why hasn’t nattokinase replaced statins? Joe Rogan discussed a study where 1,062 people took it for a year. Ultrasound showed their arterial plaque shrank 36%. This enzyme stops new blockages and reverses existing plaque. Why not mainstream yet?

No randomized controlled trials test nattokinase as a treatment for acute clots like DVT or pulmonary embolism. Existing clot resolution (even with standard anticoagulants) typically takes weeks to months, not days. The marker increases seen in studies are mild and don’t prove a large, symptomatic clot vanishes quickly. One observational report noted symptom relief in DVT patients over ~30 days (often alongside other care), but that’s not the same as “dissolved in 1–2 days.” No imaging-confirmed cases in the literature match Cole’s anecdote at that speed. Reviews (e.g., from Memorial Sloan Kettering, WebMD, and independent analyses) rate it as “promising for prevention/support” but “insufficient evidence” for treating existing clots. Risks include bleeding (especially with blood thinners or surgery) and the theoretical danger of partially dissolving a clot so it embolizes. It’s a supplement, not a drug—dosing, purity, and interactions aren’t standardized like pharmaceuticals. Bottom line on the claim It’s an intriguing anecdote highlighting nattokinase’s real biological effects, and the enzyme does have a plausible role in cardiovascular support (especially prevention during travel or for general circulation). Japanese natto consumption correlates with lower heart disease rates, and the enzyme is cheap, generally safe for most people at 2,000–10,800 FU/day. But rapid dissolution of real clots in 1–2 days? Not backed by controlled human data—it’s the kind of extraordinary claim that needs extraordinary evidence, which isn’t there yet. Cole’s history on COVID/vaccine topics adds skepticism; this feels more like promotional storytelling than rigorous pathology observation. If the previous discussion was about vaccine/spike-related clots (common in those circles), this is the same playbook: natural enzymes as “detox” alternatives. Practical takeaway (not medical advice—see a doctor): For travel clots, proven steps win: walk/stretch, stay hydrated, compression gear, and consult a physician before any supplement (especially if you have clotting history, take meds, or symptoms like leg swelling/pain/shortness of breath). Nattokinase might be a reasonable adjunct for prevention in low-risk folks after discussion with a clinician, but don’t bet on it replacing diagnostics or evidence-based treatment. Clots are serious—ultrasound and proper care save lives.—Grok

Dr. Ryan Cole: “I’ve had colleagues who have ended up with clots after long travels.” “I said: ‘Have you tried nattokinase?’” “[They take it] and in a day or two later… their clot is dissolved.”

Bunbaz@Mr_Bun_baz·
Dr. Cole’s point highlights an interesting natural approach to supporting circulation. 🌿 Nattokinase, an enzyme from fermented soy, has been studied for its ability to break down fibrin and support healthy blood flow. While anecdotal stories are promising, it’s always wise to consult a healthcare professional before using it, especially for people with clotting risks or on blood thinners. ⚠️ It’s a reminder that simple interventions sometimes make a noticeable difference, but safety should always come first.

I invariably emit a most mirthful chortle when individuals assert— with such unbecoming certitude — that my compositions are the spurious progeny of some large language model, and then proceed to brandish their so-called “AI detection probabilistically calibrated classifier” as irrefutable evi-DENCE. One might as well proclaim that the Gettysburg Address was surreptitiously generated by a silicon-based autoregressive transformer! Preposterous. No, I do not avail myself of artificial intelligence for textual generation; you are merely constructing an argumentum ad hominem whilst evading the substantive proposition itself.

Pauline Hanson's One Nation surged in the South Australian election and outpolled the Liberals. I wrote for The Nightly about why I don't think this is a protest vote, but part of a global structural change in Western politics (and predicted by The Fourth Turning).
