1/ Pretty close to what I predicted.

Side note -- many have expressed frustration with their doctors or simply not seeing one at all. I should emphasize that I prefer my family and friends see their doctor and get bloodwork done at least once a year at a minimum...
2/ If you find you're fighting with your doctor a lot given they have different goals or perspectives, don't give up on the entirety of annual care -- consider taking the time to shop around for a new doctor. There might even be a #keto/#lchf doctor already near you...
3/ I've now used @DietDoctor's doctor locator page at least a dozen times to help find med professionals near friends/family that were going low carb. dietdoctor.com/low-carb/docto…

1/ I’d like to address @JTMarlin77’s point in depth...

For what it’s worth, I think it’s not only fair to critize my work, it’s something I invite. Let’s debate the theories, methodologies, and data...
2/ In fact, I proactively seek out educated, thoughtful opinions that oppose my hypotheses. I don’t just retweet these individuals, I invite them onto the channel (#CholesterolScience series) and even have amazing people like @DrNadolsky write us a pro LDL lowing case for CC.
3/ I bring this up because — like these same people — I often point to associations out loud all the time.

An example would be the thread @JTMarlin77 was referring to where I pointed out my surprising reduction in symptomatic bacterial / viral sickness since my LDL increased.

1/ I think this would be a great time to discuss my process, particularly in connecting with people who feel very strongly that I’m wrong.

Why give anyone time or attention that has disparaged me or people I care about in the course of making their arguments?
2/ A cynical reading of this would be that I’m trying to bolster a reputation of being evenhanded while secretly being completely attached to my viewpoint all along.

A generous one would be that I’m truly seeking the challenge my hypotheses and finding the best people to do it.
3/ The irony is that I believe — if I’m being a good scientist — I don’t know how much the first is true vs the second.

But I do know this...

... It’s very hard to defend a hypothesis that is flawed if you find the very best people to shoot it down.

1/ How to Lower Your LDL Cholesterol when Low Carb
(if that's your thing)

*** This thread is not medical advice ***

While it's true I like to say I'm "cautiously optimistic" with regard to high LDL in a healthy metabolic context, there are many who would prefer to lower it...
2/ First, you should know that I believe the reason for this higher LDL when metabolically healthy is generally due to being powered by fat, which "ride shares" with cholesterol inside these "boats" called lipoproteins. You can find out more at CholesterolCode.com/model
3/ This is important to note, because it can explain why the most dramatic changes I've made to my own LDL in experiments were in the context of swapping out fat calories for carb calories. My most dramatic experiment demonstrated this effect last year cholesterolcode.com/the-tandem-dro…

(THREAD) BREAKING: A top Trump ally revealed Trump's impeachment defense today—and it's not what many expected. I break it down here using Ukraine-scandal reporting and my experience as a defense lawyer. I hope you'll read this and RETWEET—as America needs to know what's coming.
1/ First, a note about how to conceptualize crafting a defense in an unwinnable criminal investigation—as media tends to only value the analysis of former prosecutors and longtime prosecutors who have become the sort of high-priced defense attorneys who can choose their clients.
2/ I was a public defender for years—which means I didn't choose my cases. As every "high-volume criminal defense attorney" knows, the difference between our ability to spot a defense and the ability of former prosecutors or case-selective defense attorneys to do so is—well—vast.

Beer and the Wheel

1. The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer and the invention of the wheel. Beer required grain and that was the beginning of agriculture.
2. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented, they just stayed close to the brewery. That's how villages were formed.
3. The wheel was invented to get man to the beer and vice versa. These two were the foundation of modern civilization and together were the catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups: Liberals and Conservatives.

✨TAROT TIPS FOR BEGINNERS (like me :P)✨

note: these are all the tips that i've learned/found online (pinterest, tumblr, sites like biddy tarot, etc.). Correct me if there's something wrong with the tips that i'm sharing! I will definitely appreciate it. 😊
I will continuously add something here, you can add your own tips too! Feel free to share them and let’s help each other out!
First of all, Tarot is a deck of 78 cards, each with its own imagery, symbolism and story. The 22 Major Arcana cards represent life's karmic and spiritual lessons, and the 56 Minor Arcana cards reflect the trials and tribulations that we experience on a daily basis.

@FBI @FBITampa @CIA @NSAGov @realDonaldTrump 1. First court thoughs
2. Second Mom thoughts

This begs questions.
I cant get past the odds.
The odds, of all these combined events, because I would love to be wrong, dictate these events in my case allude to tampering and smear. Its self evident. But....
@FBI @FBITampa @CIA @NSAGov @realDonaldTrump I made one call. One call under another pin. To my sister. As previously noted. To imply the pin, its arguable its known. Its arguable that eyes were on. One. Call. Swear. I have records that will match every one, unless doctored.

184) Everything that was doomed, tragic, wrong about the U.S. invasion of Iraq became apparent in the days before the statue of Saddam Hussein was toppled in Firdos Square. On April 6, 2003, the Marines who would tear down the statue arrived at the Diyala Canal outside Baghdad.
185) More than two weeks ago, I tweeted a photo that I took of an Iraqi corpse on a bridge, and said I would tell its story. The story begins today.
186) The bridge at the Diyala Canal was about 9 miles from the center of Baghdad. When McCoy's battalion approached the bridge, Iraqi soldiers shot at the Americans with RPGs and small weapons. I got into an open-backed Humvee that drove toward the fighting.

Almost all of the Road Runner cartoons are available via the @BoomerangToons app.

I subscribed for $5 & decided I'm gonna watch & tweet about 'em all in chronological order, even the later, terrible ones, for which I have an irrational affection.

Here we go.

Boomerang lists them alphabetically not chronologically so Chuck Jones masterpieces sit side-by-side with 1960s atrocities (& later 'revival' attempts.)

I am going to start at the beginning. I will also be including Wile E. Coyote/Bugs Bunny & Ralph Wolf/Sam Sheepdog shorts, FYI
September 17, 1949: "Fast And Furry-ous"

Chuck Jones intended this short to be a parody of cat & mouse "chase" cartoons. Instead, he accidentally created the definitive chase cartoon series of all time.
