Phenotype vs biological normative.

Deaf people will decry “fixing” a person hearing impaired in the womb. Yet, it’s a correction to biological normative.

Adjusting a gender to a different one in the womb would not be.

Adjusting physical traits for looks wouldn’t be.

Adjusting a physical trait like spinal deformity would be.

Adjusting for general height would not be.

If there is something diagnosable in the ICD-10 codes we have, and it’s preventable in a population, it would not be eugenetics. Remove gene editing as the tool, but just say “magic” a cure. Cures apply to diseases, not traits.

You don’t cure being black. You CAN cure sickle cell.

I think the line is pretty clear.

You simply use existing diagnostic criteria of deviation from biological normative function.

Gold standard:

Be able to draw from concealment and hit a 6” steel circle at 10 yards in under 1.5 seconds. Every time, 10 draws in a row.

Ensure you can perform an elpresidente stage run in 6.5 seconds with all hits in the alpha scoring zone.

You can perform a fast drill in under 7 seconds, 3 times in a row back to back.

Your splits at 7 yards are under 2 tenths.

Your draw, shoot, reload, shoot on a 7 yard 6” steel plate is under 2.5 seconds. 10 times in a row.

Amateurs train until they get it right. Professionals train until they can’t get it wrong.

You always fall in the moment to the level of your training, so absolutely train if you decide to arm yourself. Otherwise you have given someone in power the ability to take lethal force from you and use it against you, or worse, you have misapplied it and harmed someone you did not intend to.

You should train how to use a gun

Aight. You do you.

I for for a fact I can work anyone breathing to the point they are maxing their heart rate and can’t stand for a half hour after we are done.

If you are not hitting that at home it’s on you.

I did 10 miles today on a stationary bike at a 3 minute mile pace. Then I set target heart rate of 145 and never dropped below it for 1 and a half hours as I did my circuit and strength plan.

Get creative with it. You can use nothing but a foam roll and get a completely wrecking aerobic workout.

You can input any bulk food and its stats into the tool. I cook most everything I eat. Lots of veggies and chicken.

All my workouts can be done at home with a few inexpensive items.

I have chronic pain. I was instructed by the pain clinic I went to, under no uncertain terms, to exercise 5 times a week. No taking a day because I feel sore or tired or because the overwhelming blinding pain is screaming at me not to. I just have to do it.

That was a year ago.

I am still going.

I went from sedentary for a decade to a healthy BMI and muscle mass because of 1 rule.

Don’t let how I feel guide how I act.

Fuck me it was hard. It is hard. It was hard today. It was hard every single day.

I have currently a torn labrum, a torn rotator cuff, 3 torn things in my knee, 4 bulging disks in my back, a herniated disk, arthritis in 5 joints, and a titanium cage holding part of my spine together.

If you can commit to tracking every single thing you eat in the app MyNetDiary ( it scans barcodes and is free), and exercising 5 times a week; I guarantee two things will happen.

1.) I will do the same and have an accountability buddy to keep me going.

2.) You WILL be successful in the weight loss and gaining a healthy life.

Your call if you want to transform your life.

I have PT exercises and low impact options for days. I have whole fitness plans and diet plans from distinctions, and hundreds of hours with PTs. I have so much to share with someone whose life I can help gain so so much…

You just have to commit to joining me.

A year from now you could be vastly different than you are now. So could I. IF we keep our promises to ourselves and one another.

It’s been a crunch my Republican talking point for a while.

Some counties have voted to remove it based on inconclusive data from some studies on fluoride exposure.

Problematically the results to childhood issues require doses far in excess of the FDA minimum. More problematic is the example we have of a similar country with similar demographics removing it, and seeing a massive uptick in oral cavities. So we know what happens as a massive test already unintentionally from Canada.

The will do nothing but cause harm to long term oral health.

There was the girl with cancer getting treatment in the US who was deported a couple weeks ago. She is a US citizen.

Her parents declared they were not, but were taking her over the border through a checkpoint to see her oncologist. As they have done 4 times prior without issue.

They were arrested and deported all.

In a totally mysterious coincidence, HIV and Malaria are two of the 4 key areas the Gates foundation is now pivoting to focus their limited resources.

The third is child mortality in developing nations (comprises both medical interventions for common infant illness and social solutions like ensuring adequate food for pregnant mothers due to being a high predictor of infant mortality)

Last diarrhea based diseases which continue to kill in many parts of the world.

Talk about jumping 4 steps down the road.

They are uniformed. No global convention or agreement mandates those elements be on a uniform. The nametag, unit patch, and other items on the uniform are just ways that force happens to enhance identification within the unit.

They are identified as uniformed members of a military force. This satisfies the convention.

None of this matters or applies at all given that there is no combat occurring that would fall under the Geneva convention. So they could be plain clothes officers and it wouldn’t apply.

Trump is a sack of dog turds, and what he is doing is largely stupid speed run overreach, but this hyperbolic shit just harms credibility of the already massive list of shit he is violating.
