@IrrExuberant @DGlaucomflecken Jumping in here to say ABSOLUTELY-an vestibular problems can come out of a variety of deficits, the VOR responds very well to training, especially if it’s a peripheral injury. But that is for people with a deficit, if yours is normal there is no reason to work on it.

@DGlaucomflecken Aren't VOR exercises indicated for patients with certain vestibular issues though? Not denying that Tim is a quack but I think VOR exercises more generally can be reasonable, evidenced based interventions for other conditions

I don’t know what to say. If I saw somebody doing this I would assume he came back from the beach with water in his ears. The VOR is exactly that, a reflex. You don’t need to practice reflexes. While you’re strengthening your VOR, don’t forget to work out your patellar reflex, your gag reflex, and your anal wink.

IV. Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex Finally, we have the VOR. This is the capacity to track an object with the eyes while moving the head. It means the eyes have to counteract head movement to keep the gaze stable on a point of focus. (Also a very important feature for keeping balance) Start with small head movements and a variety of movements over time. ⇢ Perform 60s then move on to the next drill P.S. Don’t be afraid to look weird, because you will. But remember your eyes are on the line.

@DavidAstinWalsh It is truly amazing, in the worst way, how untouchable Israeli policy is. I just want to bang my head against a wall NOTHING MATTERS

But surely if you need young people to vote for you in November, your polling is in the toilet on Gaza among young voters (especially young Democrats!) and you're seeing a massive nationwide campus protest movement, there should be some political alarm bells ringing!

Even if this is right -- and I don't think it is -- it does nothing to resolve the basic political problem Biden faces, which is "How do you win over young voters who you need if they uniformly hate your support for the Gaza war?"
Nate Silver@NateSilver538

This is probably right. Most people don't form political opinions through deep examination of the issues or reasoning from first principles. It's more like picking some particular fashion label or way of dressing. Especially for younger people, who face more peer pressure.

Sorely tempted to gobble up the sofrito I just made before adding it to the beans, anyone have any tips, maybe a mantra, to avoid this tragedy?

It’s impossible to get Mayor Johnson to even give *lip service* to the idea that CTA is in crisis, to say nothing of working towards actual solutions. He’s mentioned that we have a public transit system maybe 5 times since he announced his candidacy!
Commuters Take Action@ctaaction

Today, City Council quietly scheduled a vote on the appointment of Michael Eaddy, who has no relevant transit experience we are aware of, to the CTA board: chicityclerkelms.chicago.gov/Matter/?matter…

So, for a long time I've wanted a space to write for regularly, so I'm starting a Substack called Friends and Enemies, a mix of my reading notes on the right, my weird religious ideas, plus the literary gossip y'all love. Will post at least once a week: sitman.substack.com

I'd be curious to know what people think is the kookiest thing here is. I'm going with the idea that Democrats arein the thrall of Yuval Harari (?) and his Transhumanist (??) cult (???)
April Harding@april_harding

Matt Taibbi was asked "why doesn't he pay much attention to the sins (or threats) from "the right"?" He gave a great answer: Why I don’t spend a lot of time on the Republicans: 1) There is a enormous army of MSM reporters already going after them from every angle, with most major news organizations little more than proxies for the DNC, to the point where stations hire Biden spokespeople as anchors; 2) The Republicans have very little institutional power nationally. It’s not their point of view prevailing in schools, on campuses, in newsrooms (where over 90% of working reporters vote blue), and especially in the intelligence and military apparatus, which has openly aligned itself with Democrats. Even if Donald Trump were a “threat to Democracy” he lacks the institutional pull to do much damage, which can’t be said of Democrats; 3) The Democrats’ ambitions are significantly more dangerous than those of the Republicans. From digital surveillance to censorship to making Intel and enforcement agencies central players in domestic governance — all plans being executed globally as well as in our one country — they are thinking on a much bigger and more dangerous scale than Republicans. I lived in third world countries and the endless criminal indictments of people like Trump and ongoing lawfare efforts to prevent even third party challenges are classic authoritarian symptoms. The Republicans aren’t near this kind of capability; 4) Last and most important, the Democrats are being organized around a more potent but also much dumber, more cultlike ideology. People like Yuval Harari and his Transhumanist “divinity” concept scare me a lot more than the Rs, and I was once undercover in an apocalyptic church in Texas. Ask your average Russian or Cuban what overempowered pseudo-intellectuals are capable of. I have a pretty good record of picking dangerous phenomena ahead of time. I feel confident on this one, and that’s before we get to the demographic/class shifts in the parties.

@logicman30 @byjoelanderson Honestly can’t remember the details but I lived through that era and my memory is he was a real asshole whose reputation was only somewhat saved by dying of cancer relatively young.

I may have been the only person in the world who hated Jim Valvano well past the point that it was appropriate and I still don't wanna see or hear nothing about no damn 1983.

Cool Chicago life hack: I was seeking a very specific mounting bracket for a bike handlebar bag, found the file online for the part, and put in a request at the CPL Maker Lab with the link to the project files. They'll not only print it, but send it to my local branch for pickup.
