A cousin who had been a nurse for almost 40 years assured me that my acid reflux was because I had a weakened esophageal sphincter and that fatty and spicy foods were triggering my episodes. I believed her. One of my favorite dishes was a spicy shrimp diavolo and I was almost guaranteed to get reflux in the middle of the night after eating it. Little did I know that it wasn't the spice and the fat in the dish. It was the pasta fermenting in my gut. It's well documented. It's called SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth). It's when excessive bacteria in the small intestine ferment undigested carbohydrates. This produces gases such as: Hydrogen Methane Hydrogen sulfide That leads to bloating, heartburn and reflux. I was fortunate to accidentally "cure" my acid reflux by going low carb but I never understood the mechanisms until many years later. I just knew that after I quit eating pasta and pancakes, no more reflux. Anyway, I found a science backed article that validates everything I believed and experienced and I'm waiting for the right time to share it with my nurse cousin. Or should I not bother?

New podcast between two clinicians about the biophysics of our patients in this modern world. This was probably my most enjoyable podcast of 2026 because it was high level decentralized medicine at its finest. youtube.com/watch?v=HKFgMZ… I'm greatful Nick asked me to to do this. Gratitude makes us confident. Confidence makes us passionate. Passion fuels the journey. When life seems complicated, sometimes all you need is a different vantage point to look at things differently. Words or musical notes can spark the flame. This is why quotes and songs are capable of moving people to action and thought. Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained. Go grab life by the throat and ball out today.

⚡️Children remember the moments when the family becomes fully alive. That is the core. Vacation is just the common vessel. A child does not encode childhood as a spreadsheet of responsible parenting. They encode atmosphere. They remember the motel pool, the gas station stop, the smell of sunscreen, the weird restaurant, the long drive, the sunset, the parents laughing differently, the feeling that normal life cracked open and something larger appeared. That is why ages 5 to 10 hit so hard. The child is old enough to form durable narrative memory and young enough for the world to remain enchanted. Parents still feel mythic. A beach, cabin, lake, theme park, road trip, or even a cheap rented house can become sacred geography. The real mechanism is interruption of routine plus emotional safety. Ordinary life teaches stability. Trips create myth. The family leaves the repeating loop of school, work, chores, screens, exhaustion, and time pressure. For a few days, the child experiences parents outside their normal roles. Mom and dad are no longer just managers of homework, food, discipline, bedtime, and logistics. They become companions inside an adventure. That imprints. The money matters far less than parents think. Luxury is mostly adult vanity. Children remember intensity, freedom, attention, surprise, and togetherness. A $200 trip can beat a $10,000 trip if the child feels wonder and the parents are emotionally present. Many adults are starved because their childhood had no sacred interruptions. Everything was duty, stress, survival, noise, pressure, or emotional absence. No mythic family scenes. No private homeland in memory. No recurring proof that life could be warm and strange and alive. That matters for the adult psyche. People draw from childhood memories during loneliness, fear, ambition, loss, and love. Those memories become inner architecture. Deepest compression: a good childhood is not built only by protection. It is built by unforgettable shared worlds. Take the kid somewhere. Break the loop. Make the ordinary world disappear for a few days. That becomes part of them forever.

@ActuallyClimber What’s your solution to this climb? Give it to our children and grandchildren? The money is broken. Bitcoin is the solution.

6. If you’re a rational person, you believe this or another degree of Bitcoin winning has a certain probability of occurring over a certain window of time. If you read Bitcoin books or listen to Saylor, you likely believe it’s a guarantee.

1. If you think Saylor’s Bitcoin buys have elevated Btc price, without him we would have broken below the powerlaw trend. 2. If you believe they haven’t helped (mostly proxy effect) then Saylor is delusional as he strongly believes the opposite. 3..

@prospertarian Thanks!

@phirenzey Mountains outside of Metapan were my favorite. But all of it was great!

I'm in love with El Salvador 🇸🇻 Can't wait to go back. And there is a long list of others wanting to come with me. 🙏🏼

@Ken00554732 @ActuallyClimber Buy signal

@ActuallyClimber Look who finally crawled out of their hole. It’s only down to 76k, you couldn't even wait a bit longer?

The moment companies created preferred stock on the sole premise that Bitcoin CAGR will be greater than the high yield the market demands for the prefs seems to be the same moment that CAGR stoped being so great. Some would say it’s poetic. Reminds me of..

Your best alpha is probably just your ability to buy and hold, and do nothing for years or decades.

@gavinnixon7 @DrJesseMorse @DrJackKruse lol Definitely. The 30% I did understand was life changing though

@phirenzey @DrJesseMorse @DrJackKruse Very tough read lol

I love the come back but it highlights my beef with you. You DO NOT UNDERSTAND mitochondria. The ones at 20 yrs old are not the same one as 100 yrs old. Why? One picture. When you decentralized your mind and realize what I am saying and do not out your centralize Rockefeller thinking we'll get somewhere. Right now you're helping the audience understand why you are clueless and I rather like it.

@gavinnixon7 @DrJesseMorse @DrJackKruse Rainbow and the worm aswell

@DrJesseMorse @DrJackKruse It’s just easier to read all of the books he recommends and finally start to get it than argue. I’ve read everything I could and it only makes you realize how correct Uncle jack is. Read nick Lanes books and beckers work to start.
