This conversation began with my sister-in-law, and little did she know it would send me down a rabbit hole. I’ve since had several more discussions on the topic of whether or not a supplement is required and, if so, which one?
Continue reading Magnesium SupplementsIn an effort to overcome my current and continuous struggles of ennui with my life and writing, edging towards apathy and hopelessness, I’ve decided to revisit something that once left me excited to write, even if a bit frustrated at the end where one tends to drift into that typical grad-student “over-it-ness” and you can’t look at your writing even one more time: my dissertation on nutrition and ADHD.

Imagine being so bad at your job that your legacy is marred by a “shit storm” – a nation plagued with diarrhea.
Amazing.
Spoiled /spɔɪld/ 1. destroyed, damaged, or no longer able to be used 2. someone…who is allowed to do or have anything they want, usually with the result that they behave badly and do not show respect.

After having visited the town, a place I’ve been weirdly enamored with since moving back to the U.S., I learned more about Jim Thorpe’s death. Well, more about what happened to him post-death.
Continue reading Jim Thorpe, the TownA couple of weekends ago my friend hosted a power point party. In case you’ve not heard of this, this is where everyone puts together a power point on any topic they wish to discuss and presents it at the party. It sounds like work, and it sort of is, but it is also a lot of fun. I won’t detail all of the power points that were presented that day, but there was everything from how beavers are little ecosystem engineers, saving wetlands and forests to musing over what makes something a door or a window to using one’s own acid-fueled dreams to demonstrate the energy and water cost of AI by depicting said dreams as simple AI comics. That last one was both a comedy of comical comics as well as a sad realization to what we are doing to the environment for a few lolz.

The person so detached from a reality in which everyone else has agreed to participate. At some point, I took the red pill. Or maybe I took the blue one. Who knows. In these conversations, the bottom line for the other person (or people) is always about humanity.
Continue reading Do Fish Deserve Care?Ok, I’ll be honest, I’m annoyed with this current administration. Annoyed is an understatement. Today I’m feeling petty. So I’ve decided to look at the nutritional guidelines put out by the folks at MAHA (Make America Healthy Again, for those of you who decided to go off grid after November 2024).
Continue reading MAHA Food GuidelinesAt first, you might hear the term “food desert” and assume it has more to do with the environment’s ability to support crop growth. Not to worry, humans have made an impressive commitment to growing produce and livestock in unlikely places – often to the detriment of said environment.
Continue reading Do You Know What a Food Desert is?There is a great deal of conversation happening these days surrounding health and medicine, thanks to a new faction of influencers who have rooted themselves in the MAHA movement (a Trumpian health campaign, Make America Healthy Again). Much like the MAGA movement, it is fueled by misinformation and emotions. As someone who believes in the power of blending eastern and western medicine together, I find someone like RFK Jr. to be a danger, as he seems to prefer blending science with pseudoscience to sell his ideas, so…let’s talk about some of these spaces of health and wellness (and since it is a bit longer of a post, I’ll break it out into four sections).
