Which Medications Should Not Be Taken With Turmeric?

On the topic of Toxic Masculinity

I'm just going to keep this post at the top from now on. 

Now that I have pretty much satisfied most of my personal medical obsessions- I am going to turn my gaze on the one I think causes the most problems in the world:  Men’s obsession with their dicks.  

It’s pathological.  It has destroyed civilized society.

Here’s my hypothesis:   Your penises are never happy because you don’t know how they work.  They are mistreated and abused.   They become impaired.

First of all, most of them have been chronically infected by germs that live in saliva.   Do the math.

P. gingivalis impairs the sensory nerves in the skin.   That’s a big problem.  Sexual success is dependent on the ability to perceive pressure and vibrations. 

It also causes inflammation in the tissues.   Which is irritating.    Abrasions then allow the germs into blood vessels, and they get less elastic.

It also gets in the ducts and impairs the draining function.

I wouldn't be surprised if it traveled to your spine and gave you all that back pain...

 

Secondly, you don’t know how to operate them properly.   You’re terrible drivers.

Orgasm does not just occur in the genitals.   It also drains the glands in the face and throat.  You never ever include that in your workout.   There are vibration sensors in your nasal sinuses too.  You must move your head and neck, you need to stretch your face and tongue.  If you synchronize this with your hips, you will be able to drain your cranium and relax completely.   Yes it looks stupid, but it’s important.

It’s not a wonder you people are never happy.  

Stop blaming women.  You’re the ones suffering from Hysterical Suffocation.  Y'all should have figured that out a long time ago.  Try some curcumin soap and lotion instead.  Reduce your inflammation and infectious burden.  Fix your nasty teeth, they impair your facial nerves.  Clean your mouth and nose before sex too.

And please, stop doing weird anti-masturbation rituals.  It’s quite healthy and satisfying if you do it right.

(for the record, I'm pretty sure you're going to want your children to have a vaccine for this...)

You're Welcome.

Quickie Hypothesis

Stefan Milo put out this video about the Black Death today.   He got me thinking,

New genetic research shows the Yersinia pestis bacteria appeared many different times on the Eurasian steppes and then swept west over Europe.  These strains were unique and seemed to be spontaneous.

These are some of the questions raised by the research:

What was the reservoir for Y pestis.   It lives in fleas now, but not then.   They can’t find an animal reservoir.

Why were there so many different strains that didn’t survive?

Why was it suddenly so much more virulent?

You can probably guess my answer.

There was no animal reservoir.  Yersinia pestis evolved from Y. pseudotuberculosis.  Y. pseudotuberculosis lives in the soil and on vegetables.  Occasionally, as humans would forage through the landscape they would disturb the soil or eat infected food.  It causes intestinal infections in  humans, but they are usually mild.

However, the Yersinia family of bacteria have a number of interchangable genetic sequences.   Plasmids and DNA fragments inherited from other species.  They recombine often to create strains with varying virulence.   I assume that this accounts for the sporadic isolated outbreaks.

The virulence factor for Yrsinia bacteria reside on one kind of fragment. It codes for a group of  iron extracting molecules.   The more iron it gets, the more deadly it is….

See where we’re going?

Porphyromonas gingivalis gjngipains are molecules that extract iron from the blood.   They float around until they find some hemoglobin, and they combine with it and release the iron.

A virulent strain of Y. pseudotuberculosis would clearly thrive in a host infected by PG.  And I bet over time it mutated to live in the blood rather than the intestines.  This is what took it to the next level.

There were already well established long range trade routes.   Of course it worked it way back to the steppes.   And then they started farming too.

Ahem

Diabetes in adults nearly doubles worldwide, study suggests

I believe this is caused by rampant over-prescription of antibiotics that don't kill P. gingivalis.

The thirty years that doctors told us to eliminate fat and eat carbs didn't help either.

Honestly

The man is certifiably insane.  He's had a fucking worm eat his brain.   He eats wild animals all the time.   Who knows what else is living inside that toxic bag of protoplasm????

Back to the Matrix

Multiple Sclerosis- I think this is one way MS could be caused:  P. gingivalis interacting with Epstein-Barr Virus.

 Effects of Porphyromonas gingivalis on the central nervous system: 

The present study provides evidence that infection with a periodontal pathogen, such as P. gingivalis, may play a role in the pathogenesis of CNS inflammatory disorders such as MS.

Study identifies how Epstein-Barr virus triggers multiple sclerosis

A new study found that part of the Epstein-Barr virus mimics a protein made in the brain and spinal cord, leading the immune system to mistakenly attack the body’s nerve cells.

Relationship between Porphyromonas gingivalis, Epstein-Barr virus infection and reactivation in periodontitis

These findings suggest that the interaction between EBV and P. gingivalis is bi-directional, with EBV reactivation suppressing host defenses and permitting overgrowth of P. gingivalis, and P. gingivalis having the potential to induce EBV reactivation.

See the vortex.

More thoughts on Archaeology

For the record, the large room at Karahan Tepe is an industrial kitchen.  I have remodeled 18 kitchens.   I know a kitchen when I see one.

There is a fireplace.  The pit outside is a water reservoir.  Those are not benches around the edge, those are counters for baskets and grinders.  Ancient people sat on the floor.

It's a grain processing center.  The small pillared room had a floor on top and was heated for malting the grain.  It probably had a chute to go into the big room at one time.   The depressions in the stone around the pit were probably to hold posts for scaffolding.  Bags of grain were dunked in there before malting.  

These people were drinking a lot of beer...

The weird pillared room in Gobekli Tepe is probably where the circumcisions were done.   It's so fancy. Super High Tech.  Has a Secret Tunnel. Ambient lighting. Weird acoustics.  Definitely designed by a man.

Giant Hard Penises

An alternative explanation of Neolithic Stone Phalluses

Statues like this were made and distributed all over the Zagros plain all of a sudden at the beginning of agriculture.  This one is at Karahan Tepe.

Why are they associated with grain harvesting sites? What were they trying to say? 

You boys sure have a lot of unsurprising ideas about that.

I’m going to speculate it was in response to a real crisis.   That they started eating less meat and drank way more alcohol.   The transfer over to grain based diet not only shifted their carb balance, it also introduced gluten and candida (yeast).   P. gingivalis stuck to their teeth and ate into their faces and hearts and brains and private parts.

We know a predictable complication of this infection is diabetes.   And erectile dysfunction is a complication of diabetes. So is wasting.  This is a monument to an epidemic.

Maybe all those glorious stone images were used to pray for an erection.    Or for relief from phimosis.   It seems obvious that was a problem too.  We all had to learn the biblical myth.  The town of Haran first appears in the Book of Genesis  as Abraham's temporary home. Haran is currently identified with Harran, now a village of Sanlıurfa, Turkey.  Cha-ching.  

Those are the Temples of Diabetes.   I'll just assume that they made offerings of bread and beer...

I suggest that during the ensuing perpetual violent conflicts in that area, this less-than-heroic backstory for ritual circumcision has been obscured.   And it looks like that was deliberate.   All of the sites were buried.

Prehistoric penile plague plausible deniability?  Now that's believable.

I wouldn't be surprised if the evidence disappears again.  

Same as it ever was.

In the Air Tonight

I started college in 1980.   I stood on the corner by the student union and promised myself I would figure out what the fuck was really going on.  I already knew my doctors were full of shit.

The auditorium was acoustically perfect.  In 1983, Phil Collins came to play.   They recorded this song there.  I was in the first row of the balcony.

That's how long I've been thinking about this moment.

 Have you seen the movie "Children of Men"?

You probably should.  It's a prophecy of our times.

See the future.

What can be, unburdened by what has been

Well, it looks like America is sicker and crazier than I had hoped.  When you are septic, you are capable of anything...  especially cruelty.

It's time to start the Global Zombie Reanimation Project.   We're going to need some help from the rest of the world.  They are going to cut off our public health insurance soon.  Hey Sweden... can you make that vaccine real quick?

P. gingivalis interacts with many microbes to form highly resistant colonies.  The reason Curcumin is so effective is because it disables many of those other microbes too.  

The problem with the research is they have completely bought into the idea of systemic inflammation - they insist on raising our blood levels via the intestines.  That is difficult and can be toxic.  This problem is infectious, direct application works better.  

Start experimenting.  Scrape your teeth.  Get some gummies or tea and coat your mouth.   Get some soap or lotion.   Put it on things that won't heal.  

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Such a subtle boy

Donald Trump over the past few weeks has occasionally been discarding his iconic blue suit, red tie and red "Make America Great Again" baseball cap, and instead wearing a black suit, gold tie, and black and gold MAGA hat.

Black and gold are the colors of the far-right group the Proud Boys, who "instigated critical breaches of the Capitol" during the January 6, 2021 insurrection. Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was handed a sentence last year of 22 years in prison for orchestrating a failed plot to keep Donald Trump in power after the Republican lost the 2020 election.
