    Ancient Americas

    There is an awful lot of controversy around the routes, dating, and patterns of settlement of the Americas. Orthodoxy insists on a narrative of Asiatic inflow through a "Beringian" land bridge joining Alaska to Asia during intervals of lowered sea levels. Movement beyond that came later, and...

    Gardening: Comfrey As Fertilizer?

    Has anyone ever heard of this? It sounds like an amazing addition to compost heaps. It seems to have disappeared because it was found to be toxic as a food. But as fertilizer that doesn't apply.

    Anyone Trying Out "Alexa+" Service?

    Free trial period running now, at least in the US. After that $20/month unless you have Amazon Prime. Sounds "hella pricey" to me, but I have Prime. Sort of a conversational AI thing. Not sure what it will do for me yet, but it does seem to be more flexible with smart devices. For example I can...

    Bacon

    Bacon vs. "Canadian" Bacon. Peameal Bacon is a significant Detroit export to Ontario. It's been made there well over 100 years. One of my Grandfathers grew up in Ohio. So he always preferred thicker cuts of bacon with "the rind" i.e. pork skin along one edge. I was always creeped out by the...

    Law changes around credit cards coming soon. Merchant refusal and new purchase fees. First I'd heard of this myself. I wonder how big the actual impact is going to be?

    Cold Weather, Hot Drinks

    There are plenty of "old standards" for this category, but maybe we have more unusual alternatives to suggest or even twists on the mundane. Cutting way back on carbs I shouldn't be going for the old standby of hot chocolate. Yet it can be hard to resist when tea and black coffee just don't...

    "Climate Change" Hoax Now Being Abandoned?

    Looks like it didn't sell, taking the potential profits down with its fall. Bill Gates is one of the bigger names backpedaling on decades of alarmism. Of course a challenge ahead is deprogramming those of younger generations who have been traumatized by the incessant media blitz that ran so long.

    3I/ATLAS Is Spooky!

    Canada Healthcare Stress

    Canada has a lot of issues these days that look a lot like Europe's but with their own spin. One of these is in the socialized health care system in the face of its own flavor of mass immigration. So much has come in from all castes of South Asia that the racist-flavored "Operation Currybomb"...

    UN Global Carbon Tax

    My take is that the UN knows its time for suckling at the teat of Americans is coming to an end. They want additional sources of funding in order to maintain their goals of domination, ultimately as a socialist world government. To that end they are pressing for the authority to levy taxes...

    Homeless Tolerance - A Vicious Cycle?

    Is Western nations' homelessness due to "income inequality" or is it really due to its tolerance? Places like Ecuador with a far lower standard of living have almost none. But of course they do not tolerate or subsidize it. You can end up in jail for vagrancy or you might starve by the side of...

    New Blood Pressure Guidelines

    A rant about changes in guidelines within the US and Canada. His main beef is ignoring insulin resistance and overconsuming carbs. I'm SO BLOODY FURIOUS: New BLOOD PRESSURE Guidelines Are CRAZY I wish I'd seen this before my cardiologist visit yesterday. One thing I noticed was that the nurse...
