Oh interesting! Do you have a recommendation on where to start with him? The COVID corresponding to the solar cycle 25 starting is too much of a coincidence with the emf stuff. I certainly thing there's something there.
I've seen this referenced a number of times and finally am taking the plunge. It's surprisingly readable but I'm never super excited when things are 800+ pages long π
Thomas Campbell was the physicist that helped design and run a lot of the foundational research for Robert Monroe in his development of the Gateway Experience.

In Robert Becker's the body electric he raises concerns about the impacts of electromagnetic frequencies such as those generated by standard home office equipment on our body systems, noting that in particular male hormones are impacted. I wonder if there's ever been a study showing a correlation between time at computers and male hormone disruption.
Oh did you think AI would make knowledge cheaper and easier to access for layperson's instead another cudgel for authority figures to use as a gatekeeping and control device?
Glyphosates and other chemical poisons like that I see as acting on us in a micro way, like seeping into us from below.
The metals and electromagnetic type pollution I understand as acting on us in a macro way. Like your whole body vibrates from the top down.
Both are happening simultaneously and have similar effects on us in terms of cancer/sickness and stupid/craziness. Both profit certain industries enormously, and research on the dangers of both are supressed by those same industries. The same industry that Eisenhower warned us about, right before his successor was killed. The same industry that owns most of our politicians now. I think everything we're experiencing is much more connected than we understand.
No but I did see a shooting star later so I'm feeling all kinds of lucky π₯°
North America is under a cloud of electromagnetic pollution which affects how sunlight reaches us and also makes us sick and crazy.
Beautiful day out at the pools! I know itβs not a #vlog nostr but itβs kinda close ishπ

I encourage everyone to check out The Pearl: A Journal of Facetiae and Voluptuous Reading. These were published 1879-1881 and make frequent mention of the commonly known, obvious to them at the time, three genders: man, woman, and boy. Defined by the, ahem, roles of each gender in the grand tradition of things going back to the ancient Greek.
It's always been more than just a dichotomy, and people have always tried to simplify things to control others. Often we're not going to agree, it's best to just mind our own π₯
Itβs all lies and poop

This is a deeply interesting perspective shift for me. When you say part of a structure, you mean like doing volunteering or something? Thanks for the wisdom!
Happy #caturday this is Princess Aurora's favorite friend here, named "Kitty Cat Cat"

I love that you've broken it down into joy/rage. I think that's very true. It's been pointed out to me how my personality seems to be like, killer/sunshine. And it makes sense in this framework exactly. What else would I do? Be sad and lay down in defeat? Pfft!
Imma be happy and joyful and if you get in the way of that you're gonna get what's coming to you π

Yesterday I had a bit of a revelation during meditation. A thought I've often had drifted by, an angry thought about an old slight.
"Why am I thinking about that still?" I wondered, "That's boring old stale news and I'm not even angry at it really anymore."
And I received an answer. Angry is the only energy that gets me activated and doing stuff. The other productive energy motivation would be inspiration towards love or creativity. However, it has happened enough times that when I followed that energy I got shut down by the people around me. I can think of dozens of examples of cleaning or cooking or caretaking etc. that I did out of love, wanting to create a good or at least better atmosphere for myself and the people I cared for, only to have it met with ridicule or rejection.
When that type of shut down happens often enough it like, paralyzes that love productivity energy. I feel sad because it used to be often that I would get the urge to do something nice, and I cannot even identify when it pivoted to 'why bother'.
Anger and spite are fantastic motivators and have really helped me excel on my life journey, I think I could have gotten very depressed and stagnant but anger wouldn't let me. I'm glad for that, but I look forward to letting that energy retire a bit. I want to see what life becomes when the stuff I do is motivated by love and beauty for love and beauty's sake π

Right in the abstract it explains the use of the placebo in the randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial. You can get around the paywall by using scihub. If you don't like this study you can find dozens on Google Scholar, and so long as it's pre-2021 you can use scihub to get around the paywall.
If you don't want to zap, that's fine. But don't make big declarations about zaps you'll give for information you haven't even bothered looking at. There's plenty of studies available for both sides of this argument and if you don't know that it's because you haven't looked.

Oh hey now there's an idea π
Yea I grew up having my hair bleached... I literally thought I was just blonde. Nah my mom wanted me blonde. Had to cut it all off when I was 18 there was so much damage it wasn't salvageable π
I did henna for a little bit, that made my hair glorious but it was such a pain in the butt that I just keep it all natural now. And yes white streaks for me too since COVID. I'm framing it as a good thing though, one day I'll be the wild old lady with way too much hair π

I mean isn't that why we know of the issue? If they don't go back in time now then it might change things!
Man, most of the time if I don't hear back I just assume I was rejected. But this morning I got officially rejected from something I applied to five months ago, so, there's that. I feel it was kind of unnecessary.
Rejection still sucks π
As someone who specialized in international trade for some time, THANK YOU! The uncertainty of the past few months and the economic consequences that will follow are so unnecessary.
The whole thing makes me so sick, but honestly so many of the people very loud now about Epstein were also very loud AGAINST the me-too movement for exactly this reason. It might be subconscious or maybe they don't get the harm they're doing but still.
This is nothing new, these guys online want to show up and play hero until it's time to actually listen to victims and prosecute the people they voted for and/or look up to.
Grammarly is decent with grammar because that's its focus. ChatGPT is honestly bad at grammar because it was taught scraping anything on the internet instead of just things with good grammar.
I started on default relays but think I got the attention of not so nice folks and started getting flooded with bots and spam until a friend suggested paid relays which mostly fixed the problem
Every time I get apocalyptic-levels angry I think of that scene and it helps me calm down and have a little giggle π€
I have no paid #relays. i have around 30 that I use. I #follow #hashtags and #people and that's all I look at. occasionally some #bots appear and I #block them. and, I occasionally broadcast my npub with this tool: https://nostr-broadcast.pages.dev/
no spam or bots.
I'm using #amethyst on #android
I like amethyst a lot. But apparently some of the hashtags I follow might be bot central so I'm going to clean them up sometime tonight
Ok π€·ββοΈ
You have to remove your relays and then try adding them back one by one to see which relay is showing you the spam. So add a relay then restart the app. Is the spam there? If not, add another relay and check. Eventually youβll find out which one is the problem. Then you can just drop that relay.
I donβt completely understand web of trust. The idea is that you are part of a relay that only shows trusted users. My quant might be able to explain it better though nostr:npub1rzg96zjavgatsx5ch2vvtq4atatly5rvdwqgjp0utxw45zeznvyqfdkxve
Thanks this helps. That pickleball news idk how it even found that post to comment on because there wasn't any hashtags. I will check through the relays sometime tonight
Ah that might be it π
Thank you for the advice, I got a few paid relays set up which helped me with the spam but I still see mostly bot content. I have not had success on Primal in avoiding bots, there even the bots I block always show back up liking and following me.
I don't really understand web of trust? I thought using the paid relays was about getting that?
Is there a way to just not have any bots in my Nostr experience? It was a huge part of why I left each of the legacy socials in turn and honestly the more I block bots here the more seem to turn up and I'm realizing there's only like 10 other actual human beings here.

π Did I just get comforted by an AI pickleball bot on my post complaining about how AI is making everything shittier?
How to escape the egregore π
I dislike Primal for my own reasons, but even I can admit it's a great Nostr app. It's the only one I could get a wallet to work on π€·ββοΈ It's great for onboarding layperson's who don't know anything about this stuff (like I was 6 months ago).
So I've been paying for a service which parses my resume, compares it to job postings, and helps me get the resume to pass the ATS system. When I first payed for it the service seemed well worth it as previously I was getting no callbacks at all, and it turned out ATS was literally not picking up anything on my resume so it seemed blank and went straight to trash. Once I started using ATS screening on my resume before applications I at least started getting interviews.
However I guess they've updated themselves and now it does not allow me to edit my resume. The PowerEdit option used to work well, and used to be optional. Now it's the only option and it is erasing my job titles, changing the locations of jobs, clearing the bullet formatting on some but not all jobs. This is absolutely trash. I went to go cancel because hell no, and all of the cancellation pages are giving 404 error. Don't use JobScan y'all it's a fucking scam now!
This is really feeling like a straw that broke the camels back situation and I am so frustrated with absolutely everything. I hate AI and how it's making the job application process horrible, I hate that I can't count on anything consistently working because everyone wants to update and enshittify their programs, and I hate how unsuccessful I've been at securing income over these past few months. I know it's not just me, I know this too shall pass, and normally I can stay positive but I am struggling at the moment.
Off to go cry out of frustration
I took her to the vet a few times over the past few weeks getting rid of the cheat grass in her ears and an infection it caused. It all seems to be cleared up now but we have another follow up on a few weeks so I'll ask them too π

Working on puppy training myself atm. Luckily I got him young and I've had experience puppy training.
Yea she's my first dog. I've had her since she was only 3 months old! She's a little sweetheart otherwise but this behavior isn't ideal π
Really lovely reminder to do my morning meditation thank you π
GM Nostr, I've got a dog training question. Princess Aurora has started resource guarding and it's getting to the point where I've got to stop it. I don't understand why its happening because there is always food available here, one of the three dog bowls upstairs is always full and I keep her dog bowl full in my room.
However, she is not eating her food anymore. Instead she guards it fiercely and attacks the other dogs if they even look in my room. She instead takes the other dogfood throughout the house which is not a huge problem as there is plenty, but it's just not behavior I want to encourage.
I've been taking her food away when she's not eating it but she's just whining like she's starving, but will still not eat the food when I set it out just goes back to guarding it. Wtf is happening in her brain and how do I correct her behavior?
#asknostr #dogstr
Its a 7am PST correct?
Oh same, hard same. My attitude is that we have a choice to see silver linings so I try my best. It's a hard read though, I've always been squeamish about this stuff π
