  • beyond genetic differences, I understand there’s also a growing body of evidence that a person’s gut microbiome plays a pretty big role in how the body processes food. I heard of a case where someone got a fecal matter transplant, their diet and level of activity didn’t change, and yet they started gaining significant more weight.

    As I understand it, the “matter” part is a hold over from physicists trying to fix their faulty calculations.

    Looking for “matter” that only interacts with gravity is a bit like looking for the perfectly smooth frictionless plane. I mean, somethings gotta account for the sums being off, but the real world explanation is anybody’s guess.






  • The english speaking world may be largely secular, but its a Protestant secularity. The same pattern of behaviors and underlying assumptions just transfers over to politics.

    Every instance of Christendom leftism is actually untrue and wrong and doomed to failure except for the personal beliefs of me and maybe a few people in my local church discord group.

    And the emphasis is always on personal beliefs, rather than actual actions. It’s how you get the Lockheed Martin engineer who “hates capitalism”. Doesn’t matter that they’re contributing to the globe-spanning death machine, because they personally believe the right things in their head.
