At the risk of displaying my confirmation bias on this, here's what Vinay and I meant when we said "low quality studies" LOL: https://grftr.news/why-was-a-major-study-on-ivermectin-for-covid-19-just-retracted/
This actually shows a few important meta-points:
1) If there was a global conspiracy to suppress Ivermectin, why did it take so long to discover that this seminal trial was bullshit? Some medical student figured it out. Some global conspiracy LOL
2) GOOD data, good peer review, matters. This trial had neither.
3) You wonder about the rest of our scientific database (although to be sure, this trial was off the rails in terms of quality control and wasn't peer reviewed).
4) Pierre Kory and the ivermectin squad of "science by press conference" have been pushing this trial as a central piece of RCT evidence. Maybe they should have read it...carefully. Makes you suspect of the rest of their data claims (as we've been from early on)
5) Ivermectin might still work, but only current RCT trials underway can help us answer that properly
While immersed in Flushing NY's seriously Chinese vibes, my kids bought a shit-ton of weird-ass snacks and then tried to recreate some random Chinese TikTok video they are obsessed with: https://www.tiktok.com/@gildrtsy/video/7405511542667545861?_r=1&_t=ZP-8y7QlZyNCxz
The result? This 😆
Hanging in a traditional Japanese (traditional) machiya house, very roomy (by hotel room comparison), traditional futon beds, pour coffee. A super cool experience! Even sporting the Z-Merch! (pics in comments)
From Sunday Zen on YouTube! Enjoy ❤️
Let's dive deep into the themes of trust, surrender, and the Threads of Awakening model introduced by Dr. Pierce Salguero in this live episode of Sunday Zen.
I've been reflecting on how traditional spiritual models can leave us feeling lost, stuck, or even scared, and how Pierce's approach offers a more inclusive framework that resonates with my own experiences.
We share insights on the different threads—emptiness, energy, unity, and psyche—and how they manifest in our lives. We discuss the challenges of spiritual ego, which I've grappled with myself, and discuss the role of psychedelics in opening new pathways of understanding. And we touch on the importance of embracing the unknown as the true entry point to the nature of reality.
Topics covered include:
The Threads of Awakening model and its impact
Trust and surrender in the spiritual journey
Navigating spiritual ego and its pitfalls
Psychedelics as tools
Embracing the unknown and the ...

...the space between speaking and being heard, between reaching and touching, seeking and finding. It's the pause after words are released into the universe, that moment of surrender where we've done all we can do and wait for response, for resonance, for the echo that tells us we're not alone in the vastness. The bridge that connects the known and the unknown...

Is it bad that I had to put on my reading glasses to see this thing? hahaha in Manhattan at the Columbus Circle Shops 🍆 (mini-eggplant)
Since we are interdependent, we will invariably be part of the problem. Because we are a part of the problem, we are also the solution. Untie the knot of fictitious self-concept and there never has been a problem. Stay in that identity, fighting for and protecting that identity makes problems inseparable from you and existence for the duration. Noble Truths!
Artificial Intelligence is no threat when our discernment is real. Keep it real! 😉
