yeah i had my science backwards. heh. i like your work dude. i think prion disease is a big problem. if you can call misfolding proteins a virus. but back to the basics, something that can have a long incubation period, yet also high mortality. if any pathology comes close to a zombie apocalypse that would be it. and the diseases like CWD or CJD, mad cow, scrapie etc.. so many different species affected by the same thing. that can last in dirt for years and be upregulated even in plants.

you guys are smart dudes. i appreciate you guys straight talking to high school dropouts like myself. i've always been good at science. i'm more of a cosmology guy. Hawking was a giant. i didn't appreciate the later aliens are bad stuff, heh. but who can say that sort of sound bite populism was him. he would've done more great things if he never got ALS. i'm not an atheist, i believe space is god. no multi-universe. although Hugh Everett is a giant too. we don't live in the Matrix, it just makes more problems than there already is. what you see is what you get. i'm not religious. it's all connected tho, Bells Theorem. i don't really understand quantum entanglement. but science is very relaxing. with all the craziness going on in the world. science is having a cat sit on your lap. you can just sit back and relax and enjoy the little things and acknowledge our small but privileged place in the cosmos.

i am crushed to see science in such disarray these days. but i know everything that is happening now has happened before and someday it will happen again. the most important thing about life is to never give up. sure, there's very little intelligent life out there, but it never gives up. and due to the laws of quantum mechanics if you travel in space far enough and it's as big as a Googleplex you'll meet up with yourself someday. and space will repeat, even when freewill exists. and it does.

Darwin probably never really worked a day in his life. but one of the things that convinced him of evolution was when he thought about elephants. he calculated how long it took elephants to populate the planet and how much they weigh, and realized over time, they should outweigh the mass of the planet. and the reason it didn't happen, in 60 million years i think, is from what they call The Serengeti Rules, a term coined from Sean B. Carroll.

what does it all mean? i don't know. but we are living it. and it's a tragedy that mankind can't get our shit together. because we are the result of billions of years of effort. just as viruses evolve to be more contagious and less virulent, life evolves toward intelligence and cooperation. yet, each perspective is individual and unique. which is why everyone has such a hard time trying to convince everyone else what they see. because space will literally tell you someone else is moving when you're not, or vis versa.

but i do think big pharma is the biggest problem we have right now. and it was never my fight. i've been a liberal democrat for 50 years. to have everything you believed in turned upside down and admit i was wrong is soul crushing. i wouldn't wish it on anyone else. but life is about competition. like H.G Wells in The Time Machine, you don't want to be decadent.

i was never antivaxx until all this happened. heck, i've been vaccinated for rabies. the reason i ended up here is because years ago i got screwed over by veterinarians while i was trying to save my cat. i should write my own substack. but i accept responsibility for my failings. because it was my job too. which is why i waited and never got jabbed. i just never understood how trying to save my cat turned out to be such a shit show. and now i know. it doesn't make it any better.

since the mRNA or spike protein is produced by the body, and the immune system attacks it, it's the definition of autoimmunity. we are teaching the body to attack something itself produces. i think it would be good for cancer, but for a respiratory disease, not so much.

i had a question about other neurological diseases like alzheimer's if this is correct, the amino acids determine the codons. and the codons determine the shape of the protein? so if you change the amino acids you can change the shape of the protein. whether in nature or artificially. if there was a disease that attacked amino acids. if that even makes sense. then it's not misfolded proteins or prions causing other ones to misfold. it's some other kind of infection causing all of them to. it's a stupid idea, heh. right?
