Watched a sweet movie tonight with my husband. It's called I Wish You Well https://m.imdb.com/title/tt2463302/ It's not too late, so we're going to watch two movies. The second one is Take Me Home: The John Denver Story https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0224214/ I think we have a bit of a mountain theme running through our movie night. 🧡🌄⛰️🍿🎬🤭😂

Thanks @WienerMemer “They’re also regulated by federal and other agencies to help us to uphold the highest standards of medical ethics.” Yep! Sure! :) Source: https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2025/08/study-inner-speech-decoding-device-patients-paralysis

This isn’t obvious in my state …yet. However, in Victoria (where I used to live) it is very real. One person commented: “It’s happening because in order for government to justify enacting draconian laws to ‘keep people safe’ they need to let society collapse.” I agree with that statement. With the collapsing fiat system and the fact that young people feel hopelessness because any regular job can barely pay rent (unless you share with 6 other people) and owning a home of their own is an impossibility, this behaviour will surely escalate. Many young ones are barely literate, so how do they “study Bitcoin” and uncover their financial system’s ponzi scheme? Who will introduce them to the hope of Bitcoin?

The Prophet We Ignored: Why Sepsis Diagnoses Dropped 50% But Deaths Keep Rising - Vejon Health

The current pandemic exists as three simultaneous cohorts, invisible without deliberate pattern recognition. Cohort One represents the majority: persistent inflammation, immune dysregulation, frequent minor infections, reduced vitality. These patients aren’t sick enough for aggressive intervention. They’re “not quite right”—a description attributed to aging, stress, or lifestyle rather than accumulated viral damage. This is the largest group and the least visible. Cohort Two is growing steadily: organ dysfunction presenting as heart failure, kidney disease, metabolic disorders. Medicine codes these as age-related comorbidities. The reality may be accumulated damage from multiple infections over years, each one weakening tissue integrity and organ reserve. Mortality is higher in this group, but gradual enough that it doesn’t trigger systemic alarm. Cohort Three is just emerging: end-stage viral sepsis without classic presentation. This is the smallest group currently—a percentage overflow from Cohort Two. Patients present with multi-organ failure, confusion, elevated D-dimers, and rapid progression to death. Not from traditional infection patterns, but from what appears to be exhaustion. The body simply stops fighting. This cohort will eventually force attention because of presentation speed and unexpected demographics. When a highly T-cell-evasive variant emerges, the model predicts rapid cascade. Patients currently stable in Cohorts One and Two could progress to Three with alarming speed, overwhelming healthcare systems unprepared for atypical presentations.

#207 Of 365 Forward Steps Notes Wisdom On The Web Our capacity and our experience of appreciation is a profound gift. I’m sure trees and flowers, in their way, appreciate sun and rain. Each species shares its special reality. The experience of being human is truly one of the rarest in the living universe and if we appreciated that, our unity and diversity each day, what a wonderful world it would be. (Link is below)

Life Power Tip Leave the world in a better condition than when you came into it. This does not always need to be with large projects that involve thousands of other people. You can do this step by step in your daily activities. Start where you are. Be the change you want to see in the world. If you complain about other people’s driving habits, what could you change about how you drive your vehicle? After leaving a public facility, rather than complaining about the mess left by others, what could you do that creates a better environment for the next person who visits? Action Set your alarm earlier and enjoy some quiet morning time. Challenge Never postpone any task that can be completed in less than one minute. Quote Successful people aren’t supermen and women. They fail, but fail forward. Success is not about perfection, it is about progression. -Simon Reynolds Clearing Use a notebook to record phone calls rather than post-its or paper scraps. Question What do you know to do now, to not live with regret in your future? Affirmation I choose to feel increasingly valuable. Uplifting Extra Stephen Covey likes to quote Lincoln who said, “If I had 8 hours to chop down a tree, I’d spend 7 sharpening my saw”. Getting congruent is having a sharp saw. Most people get lost hacking their way through the jungle in pursuit of their goals. When you’re congruent, you fly confidently over the jungle and land next to your objective to claim what you have so clearly envisioned. Use the many exercises taught in the pages of this free PDF download to build your congruency, from the book One Minute Millionaire by Mark Victor Hansen & Robert G. Allen.
