5) AI, which is good at bullshit, may thrive because we have made a society run on bullshit. But in the end I cannot believe we will all become nothing but consumers. People MAKE. An not in the Randian "makers and takers" sense, in the yearning, stretching toward the infinite sense.

6) Art is, in the end, a way of taking a feeling out of my head and trying to jam it into yours from across space and time. There may be some tasty junk food made by AI eventually, but without intention, our appetites to make will be unmet, and we will eventually move on. 6/6

With the right conditions and supports, all of us could really be something, but capitalism makes failures of us all. Billionaires the biggest failures of all.

Do you want to be right about the bad things in the world, correct misinfo and inform the people you care about who may be putting themselves in harm’s way, or do you want people in your life?

For the record, I only send articles & studies if a friend ASKS me to. Even then, might not. I weigh how much it matters to me if they suddenly left my life, which some do bc it’s hard to look a friend in the eye when they know you know they should do better NOW THAT THEY KNOW BETTER but still won’t

My old stomping grounds! I got priced out of this neighbourhood too, neighbour, I miss my home 😭 Every time I’m passing thru this hood, see the Wallace bridge over the tracks or the Railpath bridge I used to cross almost every single day for years, it’s bittersweet. Sorry friend ❤️ I feel your pain 🫂

Also there's growing evidence that a large enough dose of antihistamines taken frequently enough can prevent the infection in the first place! I updated that blog post in a thread with more references, here: bsky.app/profile/raha...

Yup! I just restocked my Covid Kit with Claritin and Pepcid AC according to @rahaeli.bsky.social’s Covid antihistamine protocol 👇 to treat Covid should I get it, but rahaeli also points to this protocol’s preventative powers, too!

Thank you, very much appreciated!

Thank you!

Thank you!

I’m realizing this is not the nasal spray I’ve heard specifically prevents Covid, that’s Azelastine nasal spray which is not approved or available in Canada. I haven’t read anything about iota-carrageenan preventing Covid specifically, just cold viruses, but will definitely look into it, thank you!

Where does one get Iota-carrageenan nasal spray in Canada? I haven’t been able to find it.
