The label reading evolution: Week 1: "I'll just avoid obvious seed oils." Week 2: "Why is soybean oil in bread?" Week 3: "There's canola oil in mayonnaise too?" Week 4: "This 'healthy' protein bar has three different seed oils." Week 6: "I'm reading every ingredient list now." Week 8: "I can't buy anything in a package." Week 12: "I'm that person questioning the waiter about cooking oil." Week 16: "I bring my own food to social events." Week 24: "I'm considering raising my own cattle." The descent into paranoia is just pattern recognition.

Germany has proposed raising the retirement age to 73 to prevent the collapse of the pension system, per Reuters

Research cancer, what it really is and the real cures NOW! If you wait until you are diagnosed, you WILL NOT have the confidence to do anything other than what the oncologist is telling you to do. FEAR will rule the day. Your family will also push you to do what the oncologists tells you to do out of FEAR. If you research it ahead of time and decide to do what the oncologist says, at least you followed what YOU believe. A good friend just told me he has prostate cancer. He has no symptoms and the doctors said it is “slow moving” / “non-agressive” (or something like that). Surgery to remove his prostate is scheduled 5 days from now.

Serious question: 🤔

I'm about to have my son! Girlfriend went into labor a few hours ago in the middle of the night and the baby should be here at any moment. It's been a while since I've posted because I've been so swamped with work, family, preparing my home for the baby, and all the other responsibilities that come with raising a kid with another on the way, but I really want to get back to podcasting and posting more regularly after my boy is born. It's just hard to justify the required screen time to do content when you have a 2 year old that wants to play drums all the time and go outside to play in the sun, on top of a pregnant girlfriend to take care of and a full time job. I've learned so much this past year with building a family and need my outlet back to share my thoughts and perspective, especially with how crazy things have become lately. We need righteous indignation and mass dissent against the powers that be more than ever right now, and I desperately want to contribute to that effort. Appreciate all of you who still follow me and care what I have to say🙏

If you had braces put on and developed irritable bowel disease a few years later, I strongly believe the two are connected through chronic exposure to nickel.

In a free society, we get to choose how we buy things. Between farmers' markets, swap meets, and purchases of used cars and farm equipment, there are plenty of law-abiding citizens dealing in cash. Bill C-2's ban on cash transactions over $10,000 is pure government overreach.
