Unfortunately, most people "consume news" mindlessly and do not remember what they heard a month or a year ago.

They do nor even want to be reminded. Why?

Because they "consume news" to get affirmation of their views and their feeling of self worth.

a hypothesis: the vast majority of news and raw information, by itself, is not actually valuable to the average consumer.

the average consumer doesn't have an easy, cheap, direct way to make money on most raw information. the vast majority of the time, the vast majority of people lack what they'd need to make a buck from the vast majority of information. and the vast majority of people are not interested in or curious about most information. for most people, most information is just noise.

by contrast, the vast majority of people can immediately benefit from being told a joke or having their serious philosophical biases confirmed. they react to it by feeling good. or feeling like they're not alone. and viewers don't have to invest anything or risk anything to obtain that benefit. they just have to sit there and watch.

what's more, they can use that "news programming" as a common experience with other like minded people to build stronger social bonds. that kind of "news" is something they can actually work with, on a social level.

if you're a media company and you want to provide immediate value to the end consumer, this sort of "newstainment" programming is a far stronger and more attractive offering than mere droll information about irrelevant things.

This is a bit pedantic, but batteries conserve their stored energy longer in the cold. It’s the heat that saps them prematurely.

Yea, but when the batteries freeze, you have a big issue. Heat makes the reaction go too fast, but cold can keep it from happening fast enough to work at all.

You might want to spend a little more attention getting it right, before you pontificate.

Yes, batteries self-discharge more slowly as the temperature goes down, but so does the max current delivered. Are you really not aware of the limited range of electric cars in colder weather?

Expand full comment

There is nothing technically incorrect in my original response, but as I noted in a reply to Bandit below, I was coming at this from the experience of someone who has lived primarily in hot climates and whose experience of battery failure has always been premature draining, not adversely-impacted current in the cold.

In my mind, battery problems almost always = dead battery, so I wasn't thinking about a still operable but poorly performing battery in super cold temps.

Sep 12, 2022·edited Sep 12, 2022

I think the northerners and southerners are experiencing different problems with their car batteries that lead to the same result: a dead battery that doesn't work.

In the case of hot climates, it's well known that battery life is shorter than in cooler climates since heat accelerates the chemical activity within a battery, so they drain faster.

I believe the people in this thread trying to say I'm wrong are experiencing an altogether different problem where it's *so* cold that the liquid within the battery freezes and ruins the cells, rendering the battery inoperable for a totally different reason than what we experience in the South.

Since cold also slows down the chemical reactions inside a battery, I suppose people probably also experience difficulty starting their cars even when the battery isn't totally ruined, but again, that's not the same thing as having a totally dead battery whose energy has been completely spent more quickly in a consistently hot climate than one that works in a milder environment.

I stand corrected about the "not working well in the cold," although my original response is technically correct since cold temperatures *do* slow the chemical reactions within a battery, and thus prolong its life (if it doesn't get ruined by freezing).

A bit of an anecdote: my husband has two sons from a prior marriage. Younger son is married and has a four year old who has been tentatively diagnosed with autism. We have read up on it, and there might be some things that can be done from a nutritional standpoint that could help. We think he is childhood vaxxine injured.

Older son works with autistic kids and has a psychology degree. He is skeptical that any kind of alternative therapy can work, and is having a hard time wrapping his head around the fact that it could be the childhood vaxxines.

So much for university degrees. That being said, the older son is smart, and may eventually be open to other ideas.

My stepson is smart, and I do think he will eventually open up to the idea that childhood vaxxines could be harmful; he is already skeptical on the CV vaxx and has NOT taken it. I've also watched a bunch of interviews with Judy Miskovits, and she's said the same thing regarding weird things in vaxxines. I don't have kids, so I never really had to confront the problem of vaxxes, but kind of thought about the "wait and spread out the vaxxes" approach. Now... I don't want any vaxxine near me.

On another blog, there was a conversation about polio; some indicated that it could be caused by something entirely different, like pesticides. At this point, I'm not going to argue that's no possible. The FDA/CDC has made me 110% skeptical now, and I'm questioning it all.

Living in deep country I spend my life out-of-doors, and there's lots of old metal and barbed wire here. I had a bad cut from a knife last year and ended up getting stitches. I was fine with a tetanus shot - first one in eight years, after a bad cat bite. I'd never get one prophylactically but it seemed wise to get the shot after the event, hopefully the last I'll ever need. I'm glad the serum exists. Fighting tetanus after it has set in is not fun. I've had the rabies series as well. So I'm fit for a life amongst wolves.

"A recent paper published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases suggested that tetanus and diphtheria booster vaccines are not necessary for adults who have completed their childhood vaccination series. This advice aligns with the current World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations. The researchers reviewed WHO data from 31 North American and European countries between 2001 and 2016, amounting to 11 billion person-years. (Person-years is a measurement that reflects the number of people in the study multiplied by years followed). After comparing the incidence of tetanus and diphtheria, they found no significant difference in disease rates in countries that require adults to receive booster shots compared with those that do not. Based on this, the authors suggest that childhood vaccination alone protects sufficiently against tetanus and diphtheria without booster shots." https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/do-adults-really-need-tetanus-booster-shots-2020051219786

So I guess he’s fairly protected against tetanus.

I stepped on a rusty nail recently! Here in the city, wearing sandals, right out in my building’s front lawn. So it’s on my mind now. I just wish you could get the tetanus vax / booster in isolation.

Expand full comment

In the U.S. today, tetanus vaccine is administered only in a combination shot (DTaP, DT, Tdap, Td) that contains vaccines for tetanus (T), diphtheria (D) and possibly pertussis (whooping cough) (P). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved twelve different combination vaccines that include tetanus toxoid vaccine. There are different rules for use of these vaccines by different aged groups. The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) currently recommends administration of a tetanus containing vaccine (DTaP) at two, four, and six months old; between 15 and 18 months old; and between four and six years old. Another booster dose is recommended at 11-12 years of age (Tdap).

Why is the FDA running pharma advertisements? I believe pharma cannot advertise EUA products, so our tax $$ are doing it for them. Does anyone know this for a fact?

Expand full comment

The law around emergency use authorization has been abused and violated repeatedly.

Even after remdesivir and paxlovid and various IV monoclonal antidobies were approved to treat covid, the FDA continues to grant EUA to the latest bivalent Covid jab and other jabs. Today, some doctors, like Vinay Prasad, are openly arguing for a formal end to the "emergency" and a return to normal FDA rules and regulations on new drug approvals.

But the EUAs keep coming. It's a period of FDA lawlessness. And I suspect it won't stop until lawsuits and federal judges make it stop.

Expand full comment

That is correct. Pharma can run "informational" ads for EUA products, but there are required disclaimers, e.g., stating that the product is not approved, is only authorized for emergency use, etc.

Per the Letter of Authorization dated May 10, 2021,

"All descriptive printed matter, advertising, and promotional material relating to the use of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID 19 Vaccine clearly and conspicuously shall state that:

• This product has not been approved or licensed by FDA, but has been authorized for emergency use by FDA, under an EUA to prevent Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) for use in individuals 12 years of age and older; and

• The emergency use of this product is only authorized for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of the medical product under Section 564(b)(1) of the FD&C Act unless the declaration is terminated or authorization revoked sooner."

I find it an interesting point of note that the app encourages people to "update" their protection, like a software update.

It is revealing of the mindset of the technocrats that now drive science and medicine, that they see humans as "hackable animals" [to quote Yuval Noah Harrari] and think of pioneering medicine-delivery platforms like mRNA as the idealised future of medicine — where our bodies are treated like computers or devices, and they've come up with an operating system (mRNA) that they now want to use for almost all disease, just switching out the 'software' running on the operating system. And they envision a lucrative subscription model for this new type of medical future, whereby they continue to push out 'updates' that we must 'install' to stay 'protected'.

You have to have more clinical thinking skills than this. And you literally cannot call it a vaccine… It is just a therapeutic if all it is doing is boosting your immunity and not giving you long term immunity. It seems to me they created the problem by not allowing your body to make normal good long lasting natural immunity so that you have to get regular boosters.

Like Kim Kardashian, who said a drug was safe for pregnant women and babies in utero, when it had never been tested in that setting. Imagine someone saying a drug was safe when it was only EUA'd, or saying a drug was safe for a population in whom clinical trials had never been done, or hadn't been completed! Who would do that?!

https://time.com/3993799/kim-kardashian-west-fda

Kim Kardashian West has been the unfortunate recipient of a warning letter from the Food and Drug Administration.

On Tuesday, a letter from the FDA was released asking that the 34-year-old reality star remove an Instagram post from July of her promoting Diclegis, a drug she credited for helping with morning sickness. According to the letter, Kardashian West failed to mention any risks related to the drug.

The FDA took note of the soon-to-be mother of two’s inclusion of the drug’s web address, but said that it was not sufficient since her post implies that the product is safe and does not carry any risks for the baby.

A portion of Kardashian West’s original Instagram post read: “[My doctor] prescribed me #Diclegis, I felt a lot better and most importantly, it’s been studied and there was no increased rick to the baby. I’m so excited and happy with my results that I’m partnering with Duchesnay USA to raise awareness about treating morning sickness.”

Dutch expats I've spoken too are afraid to go there to visit friends and family. They aren't sure they'd be allowed to leave, or be let into Sweden again.

Not going to write an essay on those points, how well- or unfounded such fears are: it says enought that such fear (which would have been laughed at just ten years ago) can even exist.

I am not sure, but don't think the European countries are still doing that, but the US is. You can leave the country unjabbed but you cannot come back in. A German nurse tried it earlier on and wrote a blog about it. I am not leaving the US anytime soon ! God forbid I can't come home again !

It varies by nation and vaccine-status if it's Covid-relatd, so you have to check the rules for where you're going from, any nation you pass on the way and your destination. They've ease off in lots of places, but moronic mandates may return whenever someone in authority wants it too.

Otherwise, main thing you may get hassled on here if you're a dissident targeted for Zersetzung is stuff creating problems for you, like customs insisting on doing a detailed full search of your car, making you miss your plane or ferry. Permits to being renewed for no reason. Tax audits. That kind of stuff.

already told my family in Europe I might not come anymore. Don't like traveling, got animals, garden, hate airports and usually get chosen to have a full search of luggage LOL. One of those lucky ones !

Sadly, none of these questions may be relevant to the approximate 19 million college students in the US who are being required to be boosted ("up-to-date") on their C19 jabs in order to resume their studies. I'm beyond angry about the abuse of power and they level of coercion used by all these corrupt institutions. It's easier for me (58) to say "f**k it", I'll stay home and figure out something else than it is for a 20 y.o. to give up a college degree that would likely boost his career goals and financial prospects. I'm trying my best to keep my kids unjabbed but the onslaught of govt ads and colleges pushing this crap is unbelievable. God help us!!

EGM, In the headline, "promotion" is misspelled. It is so obvious you should really fix it. Love your work.
