Catching a Nouvelle Vague For a Week

No Idea outcomes, but it’s my birthday tomorrow; just arrived up here today, will be here for 5-6 days, depending on when I feel like leaving. Family is coming up starting tomorrow. Lots. Haven’t seen my long haul truck driving baby bro in almost a year and I get weepy when I think about seeing…

The Ominous Duck Dodgers Comment Grace Liu Deleted

She doesn’t want to you to see it in her Jan 23, 2015 comment thread. Duck Dodgers has left a new comment on the post “Lose Weight, Body Fat, Improve Blood Glucoses and …”: I’ll try again, P1, and hopefully Grace won’t censor me this time. [The cunt did – Ed]. P1 said: “Duck, can…

Let Me Go All Homophobe On Your Butts

Ha, just realized the title has an implicit contradiction in terms. Oh, well. That Chick-fil-A post yesterday was off the cuff, stream of conscience…just a nagging itch, really. I got a pretty reasonable comment from a person who happens to like different genitals than I (assuming male, since ‘gay’ and not ‘lesbian’ was used). It’s…

Chick-fil-A Is Definitely Discriminating

Beyond the sin of having a really head shaking, Dumb-ass-Name, I merely recall some time ago flocks having ruffled feathers, squawking on and on—like they’d had their heads chopped off—about how the chain was interfering with various pecking orders…or something. There’s been one around here for some time and so I decided to check it…

Antagonism is the Opium of the People

Die Religion … ist das Opium des Volkes Wikipedia gives the basics in terms of origination. “Religion is the opium of the people” is one of the most frequently paraphrased statements of German economist Karl Marx. It was translated from the German original, “Die Religion … ist das Opium des Volkes” and is often rendered…

Help Some Kids Get A Library Book Grant

I’m generally immune to blegs asking me to vote for stuff online. Generally, that is. The wife unit gets dispensation. So, no, I’m not asking that you vote me the most curmudgeonly a-hole in this part of the blogosphere. Rather, I’m asking you to vote so my wife’s school gets $10,000 of private grant money…

The Hunt is On: Tiger Nuts, Per Grace Liu

It was interesting skimming Grace Liu’s latest post (part 6 of her Gish Gallop on how RS2 is gonna killz U—after making you fat, destroying your “ancestral core,” and giving you hamster gutz, among other very bad stuff), in spite of thousands of anecdotes to the contrary, including a couple of recent revelations of individuals stopping their…

Overlooked: Fasting For Gut Microbiome Health

Just a kind of quick one here Sunday morning. Haven’t been that motivated to blog lately and plus, I’m all excited about finally doing this auto transformation I previously blogged about: Zombie Apocalypse X5.   So, to the left is what it looked like when I dropped it off with Tommy at California Wheels yesterday…

Here’s Your “Gut Goddess” Right Here

There’s other comments to highlight, but I’m on a roll. Haven’t felt like blogging, I have a big post in draft on everything you never knew about honey, so this just hit me and I picked it. I am one of those too that tried to follow Grace and take out the rps [Raw Potato…

Did Impotent Give a National State Welfare Speech?

I was delighted to learn that I’d missed all media reference to a Grand State of The Union speech before it happened. Next day, I heard whispers of aftermath and I’m like: ‘cool, it’s not important anymore.’ It’s not. It’s pretending to be important. I like how Matt Welch put it in a bit over…

Internet Security: A Lesson in Diminishing Returns

I’ve had my own PC since 1990 (used one since ’87, leading the SEVENTHFLEET to do stuff different—we literally bought a bunch of IBM clones in Hong Kong) and have been on the Internet since 1992. That’s 23 years. My first modem connection was via a CompuServe account that came with a heavy manual and…

Animal Farts Powder 1.0 Beta

  Part inspiration, part scouring around, part listening to some commenters, part total shot in the dark…I’ve made perhaps the 1st HUGE gut biome food designed with them in mind. May they blister your dreams. It’s 13 different powdered gut foods in one—from pectin to potato starch and mung bean; to FOS, psyllium, and a…

“The Microbiome Diet: Evolving Past Paleo”

I don’t usually like to blog one single article, but I sometimes make an exception because there are some keen insights here. And I especially like them because all of them have been in my book draft for some time. 🙂 This is an article by Dr. Raphael Kellman, author of [easyazon_link asin=”0738217654″ locale=”US” new_window=”default” nofollow=”default”…

Hacking and Tweaking at Back Pain Day By Day

Here’s the post that came across email yesterday. After four years of successfully staging annual Ancestral Health Symposiums, we regretfully announce that AHS15 will not be held. We were looking forward to it so much that we began planning for it before AHS14 took place, but despite our jump on the process, we hit several…
