En español, el trabajo del Dr Palmetti es impecable y ademas consecuente con las generalidades de lo que el libro Parasite Pill dice. Se consigue en Mercadolibre. Según escuché, Palmetti tiene una clínica muuuuyy interesante en Córdoba. Además de comercializar productos bajo la marca PRAMA que son excelentes en su labor de revivir practicas, curas y medicinas de antaño. Palmetti tiene un montón de libros

This is the parasite pill book. A very fun and entertaining reading for anyone willing to look. https://files.catbox.moe/ko8bbs.pdf There are currently and often a couple of threads in 4chan's /x/ catalog about the parasites.

Well... I'm preparing the "parasite pill" themed radio segment for tomorrow. I mean... I will speak about parasites and how they affect us and how we can treat ourselves.

I tried to get a simple Photoshop trick out of AI . Thinking it would be easy. Prompting is not my thing: I said replace the character in the first picture for the character in the second picture instead. (I wrote it in Spanish)

Today is our 19th anniversary. We have been together with @Anto ⚖️🇦🇷📷💻 since we were little teens.

I think I'm going to make some video. Of a couple of videos. I found this old tripod, it belonged to my grandfather. I disasembled it and created the attaching screw out of a really dark Argentine hardwood. Because the one it had didn't fit in my camera. The rest was a bit of tightening the screws.. some oil... That tripod is gold standard.

Speaking of character. I just sharpened and repaired this one with that little copper rivet. I have to shave myself. One day I bought this Chinese really cheap razor and once I learnt to sharpen and use it, it was a game changer and such an experience.... I love it

Oh and I almost forgot to mention: I am repairing the workbench. It had a lot of abuse since I used it for all the carpentry of my house when building it and I did so many brutal operations on it with machines that it was all punctured and kerfed and teared in the top. So, and since I don't have money or wood to replace the entire top I decided to carve a space to inlay a board and level it. Its going to be a poplar board I obtained by dismantling a piece of a rocking chair that I will be replacing with another board. So, those are third worldish solutions to problems. The thing is that all those kerfs and holes in the top of the bench were home to dirt and little things that sometimes with bad luck would make a dent on a tool. Because sometimes it was perhaps little pieces of metal or just particles of dust and sand. It would make the top of the bench virtually uncleanable ( if the word exists) So. The top was already a set of construction beams recycled and glued. Now its going to be more pretty. It feels good. It feels kaizen-ish. #wood #woodworking #carpentry #tools #handtools #carving #craft #workshop

I've been making some kaizen at the tiny workshop. All minor improvements with potential to stack and compound with eachother. I brought my grandfather's bench grinder. He made it with an old washing machine motor. Still working after all these years... 50 years? At least. A little oil and that's all... Then I brought a picture of him. My grand father, from my dad's side. I didn't knew him. He passed when I was 6months old. Yet I was always very fond of his work and his doings. Then, there's my screw collection. Our screws ( grandfather, father and I ) because I think we have been collecting them since decades ago, the bulk just switched hands. I classified them last week and found a proper place in the workshop that feels right. (I have another tiny drawer with the tiniest of them all) I don't waste screws. Or bolts or washers. I look for them near the holes and the bumps in the streets. Specially nuts, bolts, washers... Because when there is a bump on the road they fall from old cars and bikes. Then they roll to the lowest point of pebble accumulation. There I look and always find some.

Found those resembling a cross.

Yesterday I had a really fun time classifying screws. I brought to my little workshop all the waste and forgotten collection of screws from my dad's workshop. "The one who saves always has. Said an old lady and while spitting inside a jar" That used to say my father, referencing his mania for saving every screw, bolt nut, nail and little pieces of things that we could potentially make use of. The problem with that, I think, is mapping and classification of all of it... That's a task for another kind of maniac. I always think in terms of "Kaizen" when doing it, the five "S" of Toyota's success. Probably I apply it not so well, under my own faulty criteria. But it is a good way to think, prioritise and decide. Anyway, what a simple task can do to a man. Classification of screws. Tidying up his workshop (man cave). Upgrade something, improve something, grease some hinge, wax some sticky drawer. Find hidden screws among the nails and bring them back home. From chaos to order, from unregistered, unmapped, unaccounted, to available potential. Feels like getting richer! And I know for sure some of those screws were saved by my grandfather. Godspeed to him

Things going on here: Spring is coming. Sakuras blossom. Also windstorms. A lot to do and work through with my mother's belongings. A whole life blowing up and out in things and objects and memories. I've been listening to old casettes, treasure found! I cannot take pictures or show some of my late work because my phone is out of memory and it makes everything difficult. My finances are crafty as a balancing clown on a rope on top of a mono-wheel juggling fire balls and knives. Edgy. Thank God I don't do drugs or alcohol. I've been spending time inside my little workshop a lot. I don't know if I am being productive or efficient. I don't really care much, values and narratives shift, appear and disappear when life events happen. So I rather become peaceful.

Levee is open
