1/ Depending on your mindset what you normally like can become disgusting, and the reverse, what you hate can become something you like. The person you most love can become the person you most hate. Finding a dead mouse in your favourite food can put you off that food forever
2/ If you are starving to death you will eat food from bins, the pavement, or half eaten by strangers – you may even eat someone’s vomit. It’s not that you would like eating someone’s vomit, just that you would do it to survive.
3/ REVELATION: Hours before my Mum died she vomited on her jacket; the jacket was my least concern I put it in the garden, hung over a chair. For weeks after she died I kept the jacket with her dried vomit, it was the only remaining organic part of her.
4/

What's disgusting can become precious. What you love you can hate. Strong emotions.
5/ TEST – This is a simple test, but you have to find the right person to use as your guinea pig. Find someone you know who likes coffee *and* red wine. When they are relaxing, watching some shit on TV, ask them if they’d like a coffee.
6/ If so, go to the kitchen and warm up some red wine and put it in a cup (like a cup of coffee) – take it to them and say there was no milk so you made them a black coffee (at a glance, red wine in a mug looks like black coffee). Sit down and wait to see what happens.
7/ It’s hilarious. On taking the first sip of ‘coffee’ they will be disgusted by the taste, practically spitting it out. They thought they were getting coffee but instead got a mouthful of red wine.
8/ Even though they like red wine, their expectation that the drink was coffee meant the red wine tasted like skunk’s piss. This works every time – try it out on different people.
9/ What you think you like, can be changed. What you think you are scared of, can be changed. Who you think you are, can be changed. What you think you can achieve, can be changed. All of it comes from your mind. It sounds like psychobabble bullshit, but it’s true.
10/ Steer clear of people who say, “a leopard doesn’t change its spots” or “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks”; they're not the sort of people u need in ur life. They think they know u; but they know shit -they don’t know u. They are putting u down, scoffing at your ambitions

Bella in Somerset. This is a field not a lake.

A few years ago (when i lived there) much of the Somerset Levels was flooded. I wrote about it in Gang Fit 2 -'Expendable in Emergencies'. The roads became rivers, people were stuck in Island villages, and the Moles got very soggy.. Image
Acres and acres of land was flooded to 5 or 6 feet; the water remained for weeks. Deer were made homeless.

When the waters receded, millions of frog spawn was left, lying on the wet fields. [Frog spawn is in clumps, Toad spawn in strings]. Image
After this money was given to the area to build a couple lakes where excess water could be pumped to (not sure this happened tho) + plus farmers and the local authority cleared the banks 9and dredged) of water channels and rivers so the water would run faster & drain quicker

UNEMPLOYABLE

Roguehealth @Mangan150 said I had a Phd in unemployment and in a few words reframed my last 30yrs.

Maybe I should set up an online 1-year degree course. Millions would be interested because they just f**king hate employment.
I'd call it, 'Unemployable' - no one university has given classes/lectures on that

- how to escape entrapment (a job)
- how to survive with no money
- how to deal with *massive* pressure
- how to deal with being 'a loser'
- what to do whilst unemployed
- turning down work
Other subjects; keeping healthy, coping strategies, serendipity, fear, timidity, opportunity, generating ideas, what to say in company/at parties, self-respect, gaining knowledge, nature as a relief from misery, discovering the hidden city, building your own empire of the mind,

Can confirm. I made ~$60k this way - zero start up cost, zero advertising cost, zero stock, no money invested. All I had was an idea - something I was interested in. I've seen others make far more than this doing the same thing.

The drive was freedom, the vehicle was technology.
It's not abt the sum of money u make as $60k is nothing to many people I know on twitter - it's the satisfaction of living how you want, not having to commute, &the beautiful effects of uncertainty, serendipity, not having an enforced schedule or knowing where you'll be in a year
Further, I am nothing like my friend @jaffer - he is a true old skool entrepreneur; his skills honed in business trench warfare. I am an normal person not an entrepreneur, I think the term entrepreneur puts normal people off - they believe they need an innate business gene..

"All a lockdown does is defer the problem, it doesn't make the problem go away".

Lockdown can have a benefit if it stops society being overwhelmed (+ gives time to implement other strategies) i.e a *short, sharp* measure; but the longer it goes on the worse the -ve effects.
If you take out whether the lockdown was appropriate for this particular virus, and look ONLY at the dynamics of a lockdown; an EMERGENCY life-saving measure is verrrry appropriate but will itself harm the agent if used too long.
View it with regard to anaerobic/lactic energy production - this is an evolutionary life saver, but eventually harms the body (PH imbalance) so must stop.

Life-saving methods are just that - they are appropriate acutely, not chronically.
