Blessed are the cheesemakers.

Ya know... I kinda like the Orange Catholic Bible. The top one is called "anamnesis" in Greek. Its one of the fascinating artifacts of pre-Constantine Christianity. Whenever I learn something, I feel like I'm actually remembering it. Maybe I am... Idk.

Fun factoid! Some, and possibly all at one point, of the original Christian gatherings were called "agape" - that was what church was called back when it was illegal in the Roman Empire, before Constantine twisted it into an emperial war religion. *_Agape_* is Greek for the highest form of love.

Learned a lot about the "gut-kidney axis" today, so called for how positively reinforcing they are. Basically, an inflamed gut will fail to contain proteins, which then your kidneys have to filter, which increases oxidative stress, which scars the nephrons, which reduces filtration and excess is routed back to the gut, which raises the pH and further inflames it, thus making a downward spiral. Or an upward spiral - reducing inflammation is a matter of sealing off damaged epithelial gut lining, which you do with short chain fatty acids and/or soluble fiber goo - that soluble fiber becomes the SCFAs, so that's helpful. And in doing so, you reduce the load on your kidneys, which causes a reduction in albumenurea, if I spelled that right. You can check to see if your diet is improving kidney function by observing the time it takes for pee bubbles to pop. Yes, I'm my own patient, and I'm observing this... Bubbles will last longer if they contain more protein, which shouldn't be there, so if they pop quickly then the diet is working. When my research began 4 days ago, they weren't popping at all ; now they pop instantly, meaning I've eliminated protein leakage, which in turn means I've eliminated kidney disease (as long as I keep the gut-kidney axis happy). Interesting factoid : the cells in your gut are completely replaced every 3-5 days. The gut is the fastest regrowing part of your body, so theoretically any gut issues should be entirely healable, and quickly.

🤔 cells are literally computers made of water

🤔 better to be hated for what you are than loved for what you aren't. Just heard this... I like

Why does Nostrudel want to access other devices on my network? That's a little odd...

Beware of triumphalism... I'm seeing more and more right wing cheerleaders saying more and more unhinged stuff. But hubris is always followed by nemesis. Every time... Watch closely over the next month to 6 years. Hubris is always followed by nemesis. Always. Always. Always. Never in all the ages of man has it failed.

How worried should we be when someone makes a threat here on nostr?

A couple of interesting bits from my bio book today : This is a green alga, which is the cell that caused my whole interest in biology. Its not the whole interest anymore... Its basically a bookmark in my mind, now. This is a depiction of a molecular railroad - the microtubule is a fiber made of actin proteins ; the vesicle is a cargo container that carries the freight ; and the stuff between is a little railroad car, powered by ATP. This whole complex answers the question of how the newly synthesized proteins get where they need to go. #Biology #study #studystr #learnstr
