my morning view 🌲

@retired_68W It’s a daily struggle

The tension between me and permanently deleting my account.

@SaltyTexasFit @FreeSpchMan Only in the inside

@jpattco @FreeSpchMan I’m not dark enough.

I need all the help I can get these next 9 weeks. Cmon $100!

@SaltyTexasFit @FreeSpchMan That’s a creative way to say that you’re a frequent customer of the bodega up the road from the plant…

@FreeSpchMan You could sell handjobs at the bodega up the road from the plant….

🚨🚨🚨ATTENTION🚨🚨🚨 If you were planning on competing in Men’s Physique at the Ronnie Coleman Classic, lemme help you out and save you some time… Just. Stay. Home.

Today I learned indie means independent

@SaltyTexasFit @ironnfox

@jpattco @ironnfox You would know this Josh…

@SaltyTexasFit @jay_acuna Leave Kylie alone. She’s just trying to feed her family.

@jay_acuna Typical California male…. I’ve seen this one play out already from that dude @CalisthenicKyle

Practicing for my weekend gig because California is getting too expensive now and being nurse is just not enough 💰.

@TJ_Bongiorno @VanceE Reference @GutFirstHealth. Top tier info dedicated to this.

@VanceE You know what would be sick? Doing an entire episode of a sick health show about this

If you are highly HIGHLY reactive to everything, including compounds that could possibly help heal your gut, look into Ketotifen. This is an antihistamine specifically for the gut and you need a compounding pharmacy to make it. For a leaky gut approach (not medical advice) the protocol goes 1mg before each meal and then before bed aka 4x a day. You do this for 60 days then bump it up to 2mg 4x a day. The first 7-10 days you will have some side effects like drowsiness, fatigue, or just a weird feeling. After that it goes away. You should not take this forever, it is just for you to subside symptoms long enough to work on healing your gut so you do not have massive flares anymore.

@SaltyTexasFit Keep my wife’s name out yer mouth

@sasquatchvlogtv Way better than Florida.

What's the insurance like in states that have frequent hail storms

You added more fibre because trials show it "improves gut health". You've been told it's essential. More flax. More chia. More oats. Your bloating got worse. Your stools got stickier despite eating less fat? So you stopped and still feel worse than when you began. In a healthy gut fibre does exactly what it's supposed to. Feeds beneficial bacteria, produces butyrate, improves stool quality. But in an overgrown gut, fibre starts three cascades simultaneously. And one of them keeps running even after you take the fibre away. The first is the one you feel fastest: Gas. Bacteria in your small intestine ferment fibre into hydrogen. That hydrogen feeds archaea that convert it into methane. Methane directly slows gut transit by 59%. Slower transit means food sits longer. More sitting means more fermentation. More fermentation means more hydrogen. More hydrogen means more methane. That cycle doesn't stop after one meal. It accelerates through the day. The bloating that's mild in the morning and unbearable by dinner, the distension that makes your waistband dig in by mid-afternoon. Fibre is the culprit. The second is what happens to your bile. The same bacteria fermenting your fibre are simultaneously using BSH enzymes to strip your bile acids apart. Nearly 60% of bile function can be lost this way. Less functional bile means fats pass through undigested. Stools get stickier, greasier, paler. Overgrowths persist as your naturally antimicrobial bile is broken. But the bile isn't just being destroyed. It's being converted into something actively harmful. A 2022 study in Nature showed that bacteria modify bile acids into a compound that triggers an immune response in your gut wall. IL-33 activates immune cells called ILC2s and causes type 2 inflammation resembling an allergic reaction inside your intestine. The researchers proved it was specifically the bacterial enzyme doing this. When they knocked BSH out of a single bacterial species the fibre caused next to zero inflammation. Same fibre. Same gut. Remove one bacterial enzyme and the inflammation vanishes. The fibre isn't the issue but what the bacteria does with it is. The bloating AND the inflammation AND the greasy stools all traced back to one group of bacteria processing fibre through BSH. Until the microbiome is balanced, both fats AND carbs/fibre are going to cause issues. How come once you tried cutting it out things didn't get any better? A third group of bacteria converts hydrogen into hydrogen sulphide. H2S doesn't just smell like rotten eggs. It directly damages your gut lining cells. Combine this with the toxic bile acids and plenty of damage is being done. Those cells have mitochondria that consume oxygen and keep the inside of your intestine almost completely airless. That airless environment is what prevents gram-negative endotoxin producers from taking over. It's what allows beneficial bacteria to dominate. It's what keeps antimicrobial peptide production running. When H2S damages those cells they stop consuming oxygen properly. Oxygen leaks into the lumen. Gram-negatives expand. They are made of more endotoxin. More endotoxin damages the lining further. Less antimicrobial peptide production. Less defense against the bacteria causing the damage. More oxygen. More gram-negatives. The cycle is now self-sustaining. It doesn't need fibre anymore. This is why you stopped the flax and chia weeks ago and your symptoms are the same or worse. The fibre lit the match. The fire is feeding itself. The environmental damage created conditions where the bacteria driving the damage now have a permanent growth advantage regardless of what you eat. Two people add the same fibre to their diet. One gets better digestion. The other triggers a cascade that outlasts the fibre itself. Same input. Completely different outcome. The difference was never the fibre. It was the state of the system processing it. Fixing it means addressing the environment the fibre exposed, not just removing the fibre. Zinc L-Carnosine to repair the lining. PQQ and CoQ10 to restore mitochondrial oxygen consumption. Butyrate to fuel both the lining cells and mucus production. Baicalein to shut down the BSH enzymes degrading bile. Boswellia to lower the inflammation and thicken the mucus layer that protects the lining from further damage. Remove the fibre and the input stops. Fix the environment and the cycle breaks. If you want to break the cycle and figure out how to put out the fire and stop more matches lighting it up again in the process: gutfix.ai/quiz

@SaltyTexasFit Woah now

Summers upon us, son.

@Polymarket I was certain I had misread this

NEW: A group of more than a dozen dwarfs has reportedly raided the Church of Scientology.

@ErickLorinc I just saw this on Tubi recently and thought the exact same thing.

Almost caught off guard when an old show on streaming HASN’T had all of its needledrops replaced with generic stock music

@CodeByNZ John Ternus has openly said that they use Claude/AI for their workflow/day to day operations. This should surprise no one.

Apple accidentally left Claude.md files in today's Apple Support app update (v5.13)

@therlwrites @PromoteHorror What a glorious time

IT WAS CALLED THE SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR AND THEY BROUGHT THE BOOKS TO THE SCHOOL AND SET IT UP LIKE A BOOKSTORE AND YOU COULD GET GOOSEBUMPS AND FEAR STREET BOOKS BUT ALSO MICHAEL JORDAN POSTERS AND NICKELODEON BOOKMARKS AND PENCILS THAT SMELLED LIKE CUPCAKES

I told him if he has dinner now he’s going to be hungry later, but he DEMANDS. 🦮

@VanceE Sold

DO NOT TAKE PINE POLLEN, BUTEA SUPERBA, AND SHILAJIT. It never fails.

@DiscussingFilm This might be cool if it had a different title. Let it stand on its own. This trend of attaching everything to legacy IP has been run through the mud. If your movie is good, you don’t need to do this. *Emphasis on “if”

The first trailer for Zach Cregger's ‘RESIDENT EVIL’ has been released. In theaters on September 18.
