How to Harness your Own Free Energy for Free
Free energy doesn’t have to be complicated… humans have done it for thousands of years before the grid.
Most of the complexity comes from the system itself…
permits, regulations, “certifications”…
all carefully designed to gatekeep what is actually simple and ancient.
This thread 🧵, provides the minimal resources needed to generate free energy for a home or small community, requiring no special expertise and easily shared knowledge.
It provides a full spectrum of free energy harvesting, using what nature provides and what the system throws away. These methods require minimal tools, rely on salvaged or natural materials, and break the illusion that energy must be bought or controlled.

12-40% of species extinct is considered catastrophic. So many amphibian species (~50%), plant & bird species (~40-50%), insect & mammal species (~30-40%), and reptile & fish species (~25%) are currently seen as being at risk. 48% of species are in decline. How will humans cope?
1. under a pessimistic global warming scenario (~4°C increase), climate change alone might only cause the extinction of ~20–30% of extant species in the next ~50–100 years [41,42]. Taken together, these losses would be catastrophic, but very far from 75%.'

2. 'Current projections of future extinction seem more consistent with ~12–40% species loss, which would be catastrophic but far from the 75% criterion used to argue for a 6th mass extinction.'
Some experts fear >50% at 3-4°C even with moderate emissions.

Ok, so Life Of "Pi" just represents the two Alleys.. Both in A "TT" ..
The Yellow garage door is A reflection of the 3 doors West down the alley of her T side.
Which is what "3 Doors Down" band represents ..

That would be the garage to the left of the 3 G-doors across/West. I saw her cutting her grass one summer in A neck brace as I was walking by, I asked her if I could help her & told her it wasn't ok she was cutting her grass in A neck brace. So from that day forward I cut her
grass for free, for quite awhile... Maybe A few years, never allowing her to pay me anything. One day she asked if I wanted to use her lawn mower, she opened her garage for me to take A look at what she had for me to use.
Yesterday, Rep. Cory Mills (@RepMillsPress) voted against censuring Ilhan Omar for suggesting Charlie Kirk was to blame for his own murder.
Rep. Mills must resign. He has a conflict of interest and cannot represent his constituents faithfully.
A thread.

A thread.
Ilhan Omar is loathed by Republican voters, and her comments about Charlie were beyond the pale. This should have been straightforward.
But Rep. Mills claimed that First Amendment concerns guided his vote - and implied that Charlie himself would agree.
But Rep. Mills claimed that First Amendment concerns guided his vote - and implied that Charlie himself would agree.
One doubts that this is Rep. Mills' actual rationale. For one, Nancy Mace claims that he threatened her over text last night. (Rep. Mace authored the censure resolution against Omar.) Hard to imagine he cares about Ilhan Omar *that much*. So what's really going on here?
Photoreceptors are useless without retinal, which is produced in the eye. When retinal is liberated oxygen becomes a toxin and Fe is a wrecking ball.
phys.org/news/2018-08-c…
nnEMF activates VGCCs, flooding cells with Ca²⁺ and ROS/RNS, damaging mtDNA and heme proteins (cytochromes, CYP11A1, CYP19A1). Blue light liberates retinal, impairing melanopsin and dehydrating melanin, lowering éR and DDW production. This stalls StAR (STARD1)-mediated cholesterol import via TOM/TIMM/VDAC2, blocking pregnenolone synthesis.
Dehydrated melanin disrupts microtubule dynamics and protein synthesis, exacerbating "pregnenolone steal" toward cortisol, depleting sex steroids. The retina, as a "window to the brain," thins under suboptimal light causung blindness, degenerating brain tissue (e.g., frontotemporal dementia precursors). nnEMF/lack of sun alters AMO in skin/eye, changing central retinal pathways. Oxidative stress increases peroxide (ROS) levels, altering UPE signatures and heme construction, and is linked to hormone-related disorders by disordered UPE transformation in the CYP enzyme system.
In humans, iron is a double-edged sword, especially in the brain. It’s essential for energy production in mitochondria and for synthesizing neurotransmitters like dopamine, which governs movement and reward. Iron accumulates naturally in the brain as we age, particularly in regions like the basal ganglia, globus pallidus, and substantia nigra. These areas, rich in gray matter, hold two to four times more iron than white matter, where myelin insulates nerve fibers.
But when iron accumulates excessively, trouble brews. In neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and Friedreich’s ataxia, iron overload in neurons triggers oxidative stress, resulting in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that damage lipids, proteins, and DNA. This process, known as ferroptosis, is particularly devastating in the retina, where photoreceptors and intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) are particularly vulnerable.
These cells, which detect light to regulate our circadian rhythms, rely on iron-containing proteins and melanin, a pigment that chelates iron to protect against oxidative damage. When this balance falters, ferroptosis destroys neurons, disrupting circadian signaling and contributing to diseases such as Parkinson’s, where the loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra is linked to iron overload and reactive oxygen species (ROS).
Why does iron accumulate in sick or dying neurons? The answer echoes the stars. Just as a star amasses iron in its core as it runs out of energy, neurons hoard iron when their energy production falters, often due to mitochondrial dysfunction. In both cases, iron signals a system on the brink, teetering between stability and collapse.

2. 95% of melatonin is made from mitochondria. So what happens when mitochondria are damaged from blu elight toxicity? You get high blood glucose and insulin and flatlined cortisol.
What happens when you knock out melatonin receptors via melanopsin dysfunction from the liberation of Vitamin A? You get insulin resistance and set the stage for many mitochondrial diseases like diabetes and cancer.

@RandPaul The impact of the cannabis law in germany and why the Israeli attack on Hezbollah's leadership was not only a blow against terrorism, but also against the international drug trade.
@RandPaul The CanG is already having an impact in germany, and it is better if consumers grow their own weed than the money benefit certain clans and terrorism.
@RandPaul Lebanon is one of the largest cannabis growing areas, and farmers import fertilizers from the West, which are becoming increasingly expensive due to inflation. mena-watch.com/libanon-cannab…
If you’re confused about what’s happening with Jimmy Kimmel, here’s the deal:
Most people don’t realize this, but in the U.S. there are ownership caps on how many local TV stations one company can control. It’s meant to stop one giant corporation from monopolizing the airwaves.

Nexstar Media Group is already the biggest TV station owner in America. They don’t run a national network like ABC or NBC — they scoop up local affiliates across the country. By law, no company is supposed to control more than ~39% of U.S. households.
ABC’s parent company (Disney) has a deal with Nexstar that would give them control over more stations than the law allows. To make that happen, they need the FCC to sign off and grant an exception.
What a retard. "Decoupling from Israel."
So...no intelligence from Israel, no technology from Israel, no $30 billion spent a year by Israel to purchase US weapons , no Israel doing America's dirty work...
So many fucking retards.
