I had a great live podcast recording with Dr Jessica Knurick today, which will be on the Conspirituality feed in the coming weeks!

Debating Dave Asprey on seed oils in Palm Beach.

RFK Jr's senior advisor and supplements salesman, Calley Means, has repeatedly fabricated the story of Abraham Flexner and the birth of the modern medical system. I look into his historical revisionism and what it could mean for the MAHA movement. www.conspirituality.net/episodes/bri...

In which men talk about men. Specifically, Mamdani and Platner in the “masculine” age. www.conspirituality.net/episodes/283...

I want off this ride.

Beyond all the fear-mongering pseudoscience anti-seed oil influencers spout, they must have a horribly limited culinary palate. The idea that you should "just use olive oil" implies they have no understanding how oil affects the taste of food.

New detox just dropped!

I wish this was parody.

Vaccines account for <10% of global pharma profits. Chronic diseases make up the majority of profits, by far. A major driver of chronic disease? Infectious diseases. MAHA has always been a Trojan horse for the pharma industry.

America is such an embarrassment.

I love when tech companies are like, "oh, you liked that easy-to-use feature? Now it's 10x harder to access and understand."

As predicted, they’re going after the entire childhood vaccination schedule (second slide, from WaPo).

I had to see it and now you do too.

The Democrats really know how to slam the brakes on momentum.

After a really good night not even a week ago, Democrats possibly caving now is so fucking deflating. This is going to hurt everyone, no matter how great you think your benefits are. If you're one of the very few Americans who can pay out of pocket, good on you. That's not most of us.

Sometimes an album hits you the first time. Sometimes, you know something's there, but you can't put your finger on it quickly. When it's such a stark departure from their previous work, it's a bit disconcerting. Now 6x through Rosalia's "Lux" and it's masterful.

Can't believe it's been 5+ years since I taught yoga, but I still somehow update my playlist weekly for fun. This week it's a tribute to Rosalia, so a bunch from her, but also some of my other favorite flamenco artists. open.spotify.com/playlist/1oR...

Listened 3x today. Fully agree with this assessment.

I absolutely want someone with no prior health experience scanning my bloodwork to figure out what supplements to sell me.

I watched bigotry and ignorance proliferate in the months and years after 9/11 in New York City. Here's what happened during that time, with a little bit of hope. derekberes.substack.com/p/why-zohran...

Sadly, the only thing that's going to wake MAGA up is looking at their bank accounts. It's coming, it's happening already, and it's the only path forward.

Who is RFK Jr? Well, a pharma exec (unfortunately) passes out during a press conference. Dr Oz rushes to help. Where does Bobby go? What a metaphor for MAHA. That’s who Kennedy is.

Mikki Willis trying to dump off his cheap propaganda clothing shows you how the "movement" is going.

lololol go scratch Ross

Morning ritual.

Shot / chaser

I don’t know how we fix this, but it can’t hold.

The company that's been exploiting public benefits for years is about to make a whole lot more money exploiting public benefits thanks to the GOP. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/h...

Between this protein craze, “clean” eating, and MAHA’s demonization of so many food categories (and championing of everyday tallow, butter, and meat), we’re going to be grappling with a surge in disordered eating under guise of “health” for some time.

Thanks to the GOP’s bill, health care will increase by up to 30% for Americans using Obamacare in 2026. People who receive health care through their employer will see the biggest increase since 2010. But if you’re MAGA and well-known? You get a direct line.

“Intentional explosion” and “explosion event” sure sound a lot like bombing. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Children's Health Defense is missing a few words from the title of their new book.

Oh yes, that transcription was absolutely helpful.

42 million Americans will lose SNAP benefits tmw, and this is what the dude shares today.

This feed needs more good news stories. www.cbsnews.com/news/cyclist...

Every time I think America can’t be more embarrassing…

On the MAHA Action call this week, Eric Berg was presented as "the knowledge doctor" who "focuses on nutrition and mental health." Eric Berg is a chiropractor.

Who needs SNAP when you can buy reverse osmosis water purifiers??? MAHA Inaction at it once again.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been raised here in Portland to support small businesses feeding SNAP recipients who will no longer receive their benefits. Think about that: we're paying taxes to fund ICE but not SNAP, then using our already-taxed dollars to help those in need.

Jeffrey Tucker is a fan of teenage smoking and not a fan of child labor laws or seat belts. He was forced out of his last job due to allegations of sexual misconduct. So naturally, a perfect fit for this administration! feat @gavinyamey.bsky.social www.conspirituality.net/episodes/281...

42 million Americans are able to lose their ability to feed their families, which is going to exacerbate the health problems this agency is supposed to be solving.

Ugh. But what does "involving a car" even mean? Pretty sure there's more accurate language that can be used here. @thewaroncars.bsky.social www.koin.com/news/portlan...

Dude is blowing up boats in foreign waters without due process, taking away food from 42 million Americans this weekend, randomly arresting American citizens, and tore down 1/3 of the White House without any push back or oversight. But tell me again how he's "just trolling" about a third term.

I'm always very grateful for comments on Conspirituality episodes.

This is what Portland actually is.

Breaking up the MMR vaccine into three shots isn’t science. It’s just another angle the anti-vax lobby exploits: they know a lot of people aren’t going to want (or can’t afford) two extra visits. This is how they lower vaccination rates.

Who wants to tell her no one person “controls” a Wikipedia page?

RFK Jr advisor and supplements salesman Calley Means calling women’s bodily autonomy a “chronic condition.” Remember, Kennedy thinks the pill “needs to be studied,” and his lackey has been teeing this up for a while now.

This whole "migration kills culture" argument is laughable. Every music genre you listen to, cuisine you eat, and fashion you wear is the result of migration.
