This is an open letter to @andyburnham the PM of the UK @10DowningStreet.
Why are you in total denial about the climate and ecological crisis?
You claim to have all these plans to address the cost of living crisis, and to fix the economy in the UK. But absolutely none of these plans take into account, real climate change and biodiversity collapse, as it is happening. The current heatwaves and the threat to our food supplies, make it clear that your economic policy, is just fantasy, until you acknowledge that we are in the midst of a full blown climate and ecological emergency, caused by the failure of not only the UK government, but all major governments around the world, to respond proportionally to the climate and ecological crisis outlined at the 1992 Rio Earth Summit, and which world leaders promised to address.
Instead of addressing these existential threats to our civilization, world leaders just carried on with business as usual, as if the climate and ecological crisis, did not exist. Now we are in deep shit, because of this 30 year procrastination.
The thing you are completely missing is that it is climate and ecological impacts, driving the cost of living crisis, and they will eventually drive food prices up to unaffordable levels, with food shortages, in a system with a free market economy, where supply and demand determines price. You appear to be primarily advised by economists, none of whom have any understanding of ecology and climate science. You ignore real experts like Professor Kevin Anderson, @kevinclimate, who has been warning for years, that current climate policy, Net Zero by 2050, after the 2015 Paris Agreement, will not reach Net Zero, and puts us on course for 3-4C of warming by the end of the century, which is globally suicidal.
I have been consistently warning for 16 years that it is the leading edge of climate change, what is happening now, which will cripple our societies, most likely through food shortages.
There are multiple warnings about imminent food shortages in the UK and that the current Super El Nino, just starting to unfold, which will likely cause serious food supply problems until 2028. Yet your recently policy announcements, falsely assume that this is just a temporary problem, caused by the "weather". Whereas climate science has been warning for 40 years, that it is going to get warmer and warmer. This year is not even the new normal, because it is going to progressively get much worse and worse, for perhaps hundreds of years.
Your recent policy announcements, seem to be based on the premise that the UK economy will just carry on, somehow unaffected by the unfolding climate and ecological emergency, even though the UK is struggling to cope with the current heatwave, and Europe is even worse affected. The major premise of your thinking, and that of your economic advisers seems to be that this is just a temporary effect, and things will return to normal, when this might actually be the coolest it is going to be for the next few thousand years, on the current trajectory. Climate science, says it is going to get much worse in the future. Why are you ignoring this? You certainly can't address this with a bit of renewable energy, or the government's, quite frankly laughable, and totally inadequate Net Zero policy.
Your own intelligence chiefs produced report, that predicted major ecosystem and biodiversity collapse by 2030-50, causing global food supply collapse, and conflict. Many of the worse conclusions, your government redacted.
The climate and ecological emergency, are the overall parameters, which will determine what is possible in our societies and economy, in the near future, not your economic policy, when the economy is totally reliant on global ecosystems, which your own intelligence chiefs, have said are in a state of collapse.
See below for the Natural Security Report, by UK intelligence chiefs. It is on the governments own website, but you are just ignoring it.

AHOY MATEYS! The following is an archive of the 'SpongeBob Design Evolution' thread that I was able to recover from the original account! (August 2022)
Today's thread topic will be: SPONGEBOB'S DESIGN EVOLUTION.
Today's thread topic will be: SPONGEBOB'S DESIGN EVOLUTION.
If we want to track the entire design history of the character SpongeBob SquarePants, we'll first need to start with Bob the Sponge.
While not actually an early design for SpongeBob himself, its obvious to see how the two are connected.

The next step in this Sponge's life cycle are these rough drawings by Stephen Hillenburg. Obviously now we are getting a little bit closer to SpongeBob as we know him! Obviously though there are some key differences.
To me, the most interesting difference between this Sponge and our SpongeBOB is that one drawing shows him wearing a hat. Why is this interesting, exactly? Well, see here, reader, to our next "evolution:"

Ralph Baric's interview with @RandPaul shows the dangers of allowing scientists & funders to decide what gain-of-function is permissible.
Baric said Defense Dept announced funding for GOF research & NIH did not consider genetic engineering of animal coronaviruses to be GOF.
Baric said Defense Dept announced funding for GOF research & NIH did not consider genetic engineering of animal coronaviruses to be GOF.
@RandPaul Baric claims he does not have unpublished SARS-like virus sequences.
Given that he cannot recall a lot of things like a damning research proposal from 2018 where he was going to put furin cleavage sites into SARS-like viruses, it's better to check his lab records & databases.

@RandPaul There were several US scientists on the 2018 Defuse proposal. Apparently, when news of a novel coronavirus in Wuhan broke, none of them thought to check their emails and shared documents with the Wuhan Institute of Virology. They all could not recall.

The Wolverine Stack just got a green light from the FDA.
An advisory panel voted to recommend both BPC-157 and TB-500 for the compounding bulk substances list.
And honestly, it's not surprising once you understand this stack: (1/11)

To grasp why this stack is effective, you need to know what each peptide does individually.
Both are healing peptides and have anti-inflammatory properties.
But they work in completely different ways, and that's exactly why they pair so well.
Let’s start with BPC-157.

Let’s start with BPC-157.
BPC-157 stands for Body Protection Compound.
Your body produces the larger parent protein (BPC), but not BPC-157 itself. The 15-amino-acid version that people inject is synthesized in a lab.
Its function is to speed up healing in tendons, muscles, ligaments, and nerve tissue.

Your nerves don't tell your brain that something hurts.
They send energy, and that energy can be redirected.
A little girl's legs had hurt every day for 7 years. Not one minute of relief. Then her mom stuck a patch on her. Within seconds she was sobbing:
"Mom, it's gone. It's completely gone."
This was no ordinary patch. It's closer to an antenna — and it came out of a military project. 🧵

This was no ordinary patch. It's closer to an antenna — and it came out of a military project. 🧵
A five-foot antenna and an 80-pound backpack. That’s what one man on every deployed Navy SEAL team had to haul out of a plane in 2012, and if that antenna broke on the jump, the team couldn’t communicate back.
Mike Hammond wasn’t trying to build a wellness product. He was a serial entrepreneur fresh off a company exit when a friend from business school asked him to invest in a military antenna project out of Utah. The mission: shrink that five-foot rig into something a soldier could actually carry.
They did it. In Mike’s words, “they basically shrunk that five foot antenna down to the size of a credit card by shifting it to work on electrical microcurrents instead of magnetic fields.”
Then came the part that matters for you: your body runs on those same microcurrents. It’s the current keeping your heart beating while you read this. And when something hurts, your nerves fire that same energy up to your brain.
The patch is, quite literally, an antenna for it. Mike explains: “when your nerves create that energy that goes up to your neural pathway to the brain, when it hits our patch, it’s easier for that energy to go into the patch instead of up to the brain.”
You can feel it happening. Put it on and the patch gets warm. “Well, that’s your energy going into the patch. That’s why it warms up.”
No drugs enter your body. Nothing shocks your nerves like a TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) unit. And after five clinical trials, Mike says the results keep repeating: “it’s going to work on 85% of people, most are going to have results within 15 minutes and the average decrease is going to be over 60%.”
He adds: “It’s actually floored our doctors how similar every single trial’s been, even with different types of elements.”
And the track record at scale, according to Mike: “we’ve sold over 800,000 of these in the last few years and we haven’t had anyone call us with side effects because we’re not putting anything into the body.”
