Interesting... Reminds me of a few quotes from Rand's essay "Don't Let It Go" in PHILOSOPHY: WHO NEEDS IT: "The enormous propaganda effort to make Americans fear fascism but not communism, has failed: Americans hate them both. The terrible hoax of the United Nations has failed. Americans were never enthusiastic about that institution, but they gave it the benefit of the doubt for too long. The current polls, however, indicate that the majority have turned against the U.N. (better late than never)." and "Can this country achieve a peaceful rebirth in the foreseeable future? By all precedents, it is not likely. But America is an unprecedented phenomenon. In the past, American perseverance became, on occasion, too long-bearing a patience. But when Americans turned, they turned. What may happen to the welfare state is what happened to the Prohibition Amendment." She wrote those in 1971; amazing how relevant it is, now. That whole essay has a lot of salient points for today. A few more that jumped out at me, just now: "The custom of addressing a person as “Herr Doktor Doktor Schmidt” would be impossible in America. In England, the freest country of Europe, the achievement of a scientist, a businessman or a movie star is not regarded as fully real until he has been clunked on the head with the State’s sword and declared to be a knight." and "Initiative is an “'instinctive' (i.e., automatized) American characteristic; in an American consciousness, it occupies the place which, in a European one, is occupied by obedience." And "The latest assault on human life—the ecology crusade—will probably end in defeat for its ideological leadership: Americans will enthusiastically clean their streets, their rivers, their backyards, but when it comes to giving up progress, technology, the automobile, and their standard of living, Americans will prove that the man-haters 'ain’t seen nothing yet.'" If this were written today, could you tell the difference? The Deep State's expectation that people would treat Fauci like "Herr Doktor", the "climate change" scam", the contrast of Americans to Europeans in the "obedience" factor of Covid tyranny, etc...sure, the Left had made terrible inroads in education since her time, which brought us even closer to socialist tyranny than it was in her time, and even more so in places like Canada, New Zealand, Europe, and China. But like Rand said, America wa, and is, an unprecedented country. We know that the Klaus Schwab, the WEF , and the left is counting on a "Fourth Turning". Here's hoping for that "American Spirit breaking through", as claimed in the last tweet from the beginning of this post, and that American "turning" that Rand was counting on.

Reminds me of a quote I see constantly on FB attributed to Robert Heinlein: "Man is not the rational animal; he is a rationalizing animal." (This quote always rankles me from an Objectivist viewpoint, but in contexts like this? I get it...)

WOW...

Some bird> some pig. (Sorry, Wibur...)

I just saw this elsewhere, and can't help but feeling there's something to connect this to that... "The chicken that lived for 18 months without a head" (excerpts): Seventy years ago, a farmer beheaded a chicken in Colorado, and it refused to die. Mike, as the bird became known, survived for 18 months and became famous. But how did he live without a head for so long, asks Chris Stokel-Walker. On 10 September 1945 Lloyd Olsen and his wife Clara were killing chickens, on their farm in Fruita, Colorado. Olsen would decapitate the birds, his wife would clean them up. But one of the 40 or 50 animals that went under Olsen's hatchet that day didn't behave like the rest. What happens when a chicken's head is chopped off? Beheading disconnects the brain from the rest of the body, but for a short period the spinal cord circuits still have residual oxygen. Without input from the brain these circuits start spontaneously. "The neurons become active, the legs start moving," says Dr Tom Smulders of Newcastle University. Usually the chicken is lying down when this happens, but in rare cases, neurons will fire a motor programme of running. "The chicken will indeed run for a little while," says Smulders. "But not for 18 months, more like 15 minutes or so." But by any measure Mike, bred as a fryer chicken, had a good innings. How had he been able to survive for so long? The thing that surprises Dr Tom Smulders, a chicken expert at the Centre for Behaviour and Evolution at Newcastle University, is that he did not bleed to death. The fact that he was able to continue functioning without a head he finds easier to explain. It was suggested at the time that Mike survived the blow because part or all of the brain stem remained attached to his body. Since then science has evolved, and what was then called the brain stem has been found to be part of the brain proper.

How did Miracle Mike survive so long without a head?

No.

Just saw the following elsewhere, seems relevant (if presented a bit simplisticly in the article itself, which doesn't really go in-depth into the research it mentions).... "Telling Your Story May Be Good for Your Health" Mental and physical health benefits In a study on expressive writing, researchers asked 1 group of participants to select a personally traumatic experience and write about it for 15 minutes for 4 days in a row. The researchers then compared this group's responses with a group that wrote about neutral topics. Those in the first group reported an improved mood after writing, as well as long-term health benefits including improved memory, fewer intrusive negative thoughts or memories, and reduced blood pressure.1 The study found that participants with serious health diagnoses showed more improvement than those in the control group. They reported improved sleep, reduced pain intensity, and even improvements to their immune system.1 How does writing about traumatic experiences have a positive physiological effect? One theory is that bottling up thoughts and emotions related to a painful event requires work that can stress the body and mind. Bringing those feelings out through writing may reduce that stress and provide relief.2 The Health Benefits of Storytelling | HSDisease.com HSDISEASE.COM Research suggests that telling your story may be good for your health.
