@ashleyschendel Sounds like it’s time for seniors to downsize and/or maybe consider a nursing home

English

Seniors should not be priced out of a house they already paid for because the area around them got more expensive.
They didn’t suddenly get richer because Zillow says the house is worth more. Most of them are living on fixed income, paying higher insurance, higher utilities, higher groceries, and then the tax bill shows up like they somehow got a raise.
People can argue all day about how to fund schools and services, and that part does matter. But making older homeowners keep rebuying the same house every year through property taxes is exactly why so many people feel like ownership is never really ownership.

1. The moon belongs to all mankind; you can’t have it
2. You’re literally describing something that happens in Dune

Theoretic question. Do you think if Jews made a moonbase and lived there people would leave them alone? Or do you think we’d start hounding them through the far reaches of space? Because I think mankind would fixate on it and try to destroy them there too.

Modern life has tricked us into thinking travel is good.
It's kind of barbaric for the body.
Last time I went to Asia we measured my biomarkers.
The data was bad…
+ 9 days for blood glucose stability
+ 9 days to re-entrain my circadian rhythm
+ 18 days for sleep architecture recovery
The research:
+ people who travel constantly for work (3+ wks a month) have measurably more anxiety, depression, and drinking problems than people who don’t
+ repeated jet lag is linked to memory-region shrinkage in flight crews
+ your immune system takes a hit. Dry cabin air dries out mucous membranes that block infection which can leave you more exposed to getting sick
This is intuitive because the body runs on a clock. Biological processes kicked off by another, with sleep + sun running the show.
Cabin altitude is ~7,000 ft. Hypoxia alone disrupts cortisol and suppresses nocturnal melatonin for hours after you land. Cabin humidity drops as low as 5% (drier than the Sahara).
If you’re budgeting your international trips: I’d suggest no more than once every 3 months. Evidence shows you need ~1 day per time zone to re-entrain, and east is worse than west.
Once Kate gets back she’s starting the female protocol. This also means she can’t travel internationally for at least a few months while we collect baseline measurement.
The body understands time zone changes as trauma.
I hope that this is my last international trip for a very long time.
