@nytdavidbrooks I love David but couldn’t make sense of this. They voted for privilege, funded by billionaires, who married immigrants. Not for a poor teacher and poor daughter of immigrants who showed the American dream is possible. 🤷‍♂️

Finished 27th in 36:41:22 for 13th consecutive Badwater 135. Had some leftover energy. Turned around at the finish at the portal and ran back to the start line - 270 miles total. Probably once in a lifetime. 📸 Matthew Watts (Final climb to the Portal)

Screenwriters say great thrillers have an all-is-lost moment (the debate); a charismatic, powerful, often rich villain who gets away with everything; a likable hero of humble origin who gets tapped unexpectedly to save the world. I'd watch that movie. 🍿

@BioLayne Quite the attitude you have here when you have been debunked at every corner by Bart Kay who is a Professor of Clinical Physiology: Cardiovascular Pathophysiology, Respiratory, Exercise Physiology, Nutrition and published multiple research papers himself. youtube.com/watch?v=IkQaqD…

"dO yOuR rEsEaRcH" says the random guy on twitter to the PhD researcher who has actually published original nutrition research. 2022 in a fucking nutshell

@NutritionMadeS3 PEW said in 2010 that only 6% of scientists were republican and 51% were democrat. I imagine that divide may have sharpened after all the climate and covid denial.

@NutritionMadeS3 As someone who has crossed party lines to vote several times past, the GOP is currently too awful.

So I’ve only had about an hour in Silicon Valley now But what the fuck is this This is a giant office park. It is indistinguishable from Huntsville. How are you people not embarrassed. You’re supposed to be builders

WHAT?! I had a stroke?! Me, the guy with a YouTube channel advocating whole-plant-dominant Mediterranean, Vegetarian and Vegan diets? Yet there I was in the emergency room with impaired speech. Should I have eaten fewer carbs, more meat? The med team discovered some answers…

@yaypie @PlantChompers Thanks! It was an adventure, that’s for sure. But hey, we found a previously undiagnosed congenital defect which can be fixed, so I’m happy. 😁

@Plant_proof Heh. I’m at UC Berkeley today, thinking back on the demonstrations I watched in the 60s as a teen about the Vietnam war. My memory is we were more divided then than now.

It's easy to fall into this idea that life was better x years ago. 50 years, 1000's etc. But was it really? Do we have the qualitative data to back that up? Was quality of life and happiness better? Or is that just the perception of every human in the present.

@TheCarnivoreKid It’s a very old story. I had two low carb friends die of heart attacks at 38. In this interview, the head of the world heart federation explains why slender, muscular men are so prone to it: youtu.be/xnWPMs8TcBE

@elliot_monk @Plant_proof Take a look at a country like New Zealand. Once covered with substantial native forest, logged for timber and the land then used for lamb, beef & dairy production. Suspect this applies to much of the Amazon's deforestation though they also farm soy for non pasture raised animals.

Almost half of all grasslands today used to be forests and woody savannah - natural carbon sinks. Instead, today this land is net greenhouse gas emitting thanks to animal agriculture. We’ve turned the world into a giant farm - at the expense of our health and the planets.

@elliot_monk @Plant_proof That's a very interesting paper, but they seem to be arguing that afforesting native grasslands is not the right thing to do, not that restoring forests is wrong, no?
