If you haven’t read my book you won’t know that my story is one of significant heath challenges most people never have to contend, or at least maybe not until they are much older. But from the time I was a child I was taught by ignorant, self-hating parents and society that health problems are rooted in failure to diet and exercise sufficiently…
FOOD
Seafoods are sources of nutrients like strontium, iodine, and bromine which can’t as easily be found as abundantly in terrestrial foods. This is because many elements are highly water soluble and collect in runoff, ending up in the ocean and lakes. Specifically, mollusks like clams, oysters, and mussels can be very high in B12, zinc, strontium, selenium, and bromine.

Utah is about to become the very first state in the USA to ban fluoridation of public water. But I’m not mad about this. To understand why, it first helps to understand exactly what the facts are about fluoridation and oral health. Fluoridation of water is praised by the CDC as being “one of the 10 greatest public health interventions of the twentieth century.” But the CDC also says that water fluoridation only reduces childhood cavities rate by about 25%.
In 2014 when I first found out there were five tumors on my thyroid gland it was a great relief. I had been struggling mightily with my health for several years, been to five different doctors, and this was the first time any of them had gotten any tangible test results and not the rapidly tiring, “you have elevated white blood cells, but you’re fine.” At the same time it seemed like it might be too late. Five tumors?

At the end of last year I posted an article, “Cryptocurrency as a Lesson In Metaphysics” in which I discussed an upcoming parade of planets opposing Uranus that would result in a significant decline for cryptocurrency which would be a great demonstration of the laws of metaphysics which underly reality such as what the practice of astrology seeks (but often fails) to describe.
Everyone knows smoking causes lung cancer. But then how do you explain Jeanne Calment, the oldest verified person in history and lived to the age of 122 who only quit smoking 5 years before she died, at the age of 117?

I haven’t been doing astrology very long, and while my new book resolves several big problems within contemporary astrology I am not exactly ‘good’ at it. That being said, the end of the year is rapidly approaching and suddenly we only have three weeks until 2026 begins.
I was watching a streamer today who dropped a very common phrase, stating that they had an ‘addictive personality,’ but in spite of that had not gotten an addiction to gambling, even though they had gambled occasionally. I presume they believe they ‘have an addictive personality’ due to active nicotine addiction and past experiences of drinking alcohol excessively, and probably some unhealthy attitudes toward food, mistaking cravings for carbs and calories as an addiction response.
In relation to my new book, Under a Libra God, I wanted to discuss something happening right now which is a pretty incredible demonstration of how the Universe actually works. As discussed in ULG, the Universe is built upon principles of mathematics, which is why math can be used to describe natural phenomena, but the mistake that most people make is that math does not only apply to physical nature but also metaphysical nature, wherein all events and occurrences in reality ARE ALSO governed by rational laws and mathematics.
The Constitution of the United States of America is one of the first such constitutions in the modern world, and is currently the oldest written/codified national constitution. Its establishment enshrines not only law by Representative Democracy but also the ability and right of The People to amend it as they see fit. Yet, while this right to amend our founding document is well established in the document itself and has been used in the past to do that very amending, it has been many decades since the last time an amendment was passed…
The news media gleefully reporting that scientists have used CRSPR gene editing technology to cut your cholesterol and triglyceride production by 50%. Of course everyone knows that cholesterol is bad for you, right? So this is worth celebrating, right? RIGHT?
In the last several years of High School, when I was 16 and 17 years old, I was a competitive swimmer and practiced with my team in the morning before school, during the last period every other day, and even after school. The last period of the day was supposed to be for our training, but our coach had become excessively ambitious to win State and National titles and had increased swimming practice from once a day to 2 and 3 times a day. To children.

I don’t often talk about things like the reviews of my books. For a start, there aren’t many, and a few years ago when Facebook was revealed to be selling people’s personal information I deleted my accounts and pages even though that page contained even more reviews than what are otherwise available on the internet. But there is one review in particular that has always really stuck, that lives rent free in my head, and I just had to talk about it for the following reasons.
The internet is a great place to learn. But it is also a great place to become confused. Or to learn incorrect things. If you’re like me, a great deal of content you might see in places like YouTube, Instagram, and other content sites that will not be named, might actually just be confusing, or even demoralizing. What do you mean, tesseract?
Whenever I think back on my younger life and the problems I used to deal with, the one that always sticks out prominently is sitting down to my laptop in an apartment in Los Angeles at the age of 27 and practically trembling with fear at the spectre of having to look at my bank account. I could not avoid it because my debit card had just been declined, even though I was sure there had been money in the account…
Unlike many who get migraines, mine occurred only infrequently, on average about once a month. But when they did happen it was usually so intense that an entire day or more would be lost just sitting on my couch, being unable even to lay down which would only worsen then pain and suffering, with all light and sound extinguished just wishing for the pressure and nausea to swiftly vanish.
No one feels more silly talking about astrology than myself. In one moment I will be discussing the role of opportunistic microbial pathogens like Porphoromonas gingivalis or parasitic Trichomonas protists in the etiology of cystic fibrosis and chronic immune dysfunction and then in the next moment discuss how the influence of Saturn shapes our experiences of structure and responsibility.
Several days ago it was reported that a young man committed suicide after being encouraged to do so by ChatGPT, one of the most prominent “AI” (it’s not actually Ai, but a large language model) products on the market and widely used by many people. While it is clear the AI played a major role in this young man’s suicide we have known since its inception that “AI” is a notoriously unreliable product
Several months ago I met someone who wanted to put my books into their AI client so they could discuss my book with the software. This initially confused me because Ai is not Ai, at the moment, it is actually only just a large language learning model which parrots or mimics human patterns of speech.
We live in some pretty wild times. Rent across the entire country is too expensive for people to afford while more millionaires and billionaires have been created in the last few decades than even seemed possible. Governments start wars but chastise other governments for starting their wars, genocide remains ongoing in Palestine and Sudan…
Growing up in a large, conservative family it never occurred to me the future could hold such loneliness as I often experienced as an adult. Yet while loneliness often seems a very personal experience the majority of our generations have been uncommonly plagued by an epidemic of loneliness, which is most ironic considering there have never been so many humans on the planet.
Many times in the zeal to implement scientific progress for the benefit of humankind we end up actually causing harm instead. For instance as I discuss in my other article on Fluoride and Dental Health, fluoride was shown to lower rates of tooth decay but does not actually do it by much (maybe about 25%) nor does it in a way that is proven to be healthy—arsenic would also lower rates of tooth decay, but we wouldn’t add that to dental products…
