I really like how, as I approach the end of the blood of dawnwalker, there are no good choices. And now there's a new twisty choice that's probably a much worse choice, but I really appreciate that it's there. It makes the whole thing very memorable & caps off what was a considerably fun experience.

The botched lethal injection of Christa Pike is not an anomaly. In fact, lethal injections have the highest rate of failure out of all forms of capital punishment. Research into the death penalty shows us how far back these botched executions go, & why they happen so often. youtu.be/VVyNMaXkeyk

New research shows us just how short video platforms disrupt memory formation in the brain. I talk about that here, along with the prevailing attitude about social media use & its effects on attention & whether or not it's backed up by science. The truth is a bit of a mixed bag. youtu.be/xL2WhJNmMBY

Mitch McConnell isn't unique in that there have been many politicians in all eras of our nation's history who have held onto power while passing out in public and forgetting their own names. Mitch himself has a personal history of falling apart in very public moments for years. youtu.be/-sy1aumGbXw

Mitch McConnell is just one of many U.S. politicians over the years who’ve hid their failing health from the public. Learn about their stories and the impending consequences of our ever increasing, post-absurdist gerontocracy. youtu.be/-sy1aumGbXw

May ICE forget their shock gloves are on as they go piss.

Took third place yesterday in the adult teams division at the shido summer camp. We were one sudden death point away from the finals. Super strong competition overall, and a lot of fun. #kendo

You guys, Mitch McConnell is actually over at my house for his intense physical therapy recovery program and he's actually bench pressing me right now as I type this.

I don't mean to throw a turd in your Mediterranean diet but we have to talk about blue zones. We often think of them as the most evidence-based aspect of wellness culture, but what if that evidence was just a bit off from the very beginning? #health #wellness #longevity #science youtu.be/MfKAFj4CyTM

The psychology & linguistics of disease as well as my own cancer journey, & the essay I wrote called 'The Truth About Heroes & Cancer' are the subjects of this deep dive. Here's hoping Kristen Bell comes across this post, just like she came across the essay I wrote 14 years ago. youtu.be/uG9mYDC7qxA

You probably don't think of Charles Darwin when you think about the modern aesthetics and standards of beauty. But you should.

There was only one set of footprints when Mitch McConnell walked on the beach with Jesus, because Mitch was dead, and Jesus was carrying him to hell.

Probably the most heated debate of all time within the healthcare community is whether or not men suffer more when they come down with a tiny cold. Well, people, I did the hard work to find out. youtu.be/-F0QcZMk_-0

Very weird how many people are big fans of pathological, resource-hoarding megalomaniacal, malignant narcissists.

SpaceX did their IPO. And it's not physically possible for Elon Musk to deliver on his promises leading up to it. The world's first trillionaire is a grifting megalomaniac. youtu.be/O6l4ND_nNE0

It doesn't matter how much money he has, Elon Musk will still be a traumatized child whose refusal to go to therapy and the social damage that causes is the most prominent thing about him. We won't remember him as a trillionaire, but a sad, disturbed, fascist. youtu.be/2vSkO9Wrg3s

This one hits hard.

As raw milk is continuing to sicken more and more people, and the new world screwworm is crossing the border into the U.S., we need to talk about RFK Jr. and the incompetent and unprepared grifters in the administration.

Remember how he couldn't get a security clearance because he was too compromised and then nothing at all was done when he was repeatedly given roles in global politics? That was fun.

I've been told I should do a follow-up to my videos about the U.S. government zombie invasion plans & do my own guide for surviving the zombie apocalypse, showcasing equipment and skills that are ideal to have in that scenario. I was thinking about that here while cutting the shit outta stuff. #

When I was a kid, and we were learning lessons about protecting yourself from the fury of nature, I distinctly remember my middle school science teacher telling us that the best thing you can do in a lightning storm is build a big metal cage on the lawn of your nation's capital & have a fight in it.

Welp there’s no unseeing this

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

There is something brutally psychically injurious to being constantly told "just do good work and you'll be successful" while watching people who do the most dogshit work possible do all the succeeding.
