    I woke up this morning with what I thought was pink eye. So I use two drops of DMSO eye drops four or five times today. It’s 8:30 pm and my eye is 100% fine.

    Eye Health: I make up a batch of DMSO (Pharmaceutical grade) eye drops every 3 months. Note: the drops sting a little.
    • NOTE: Do not use DMSO inside the eye if you have a false lens from cataract replacement surgery, as the DMSO can blur the lends. Instead you can apply it over the skin of a closed eye twice a day. Amandha Vollmer, Healing with DMSO, pg. 69.
    ***************

    Some chapter info found @ HealingwithDMSO.com.
    • Alexander M. Saytzeff, a Russian doctor, discovered DMSO in 1866. The use commercially was in the 1950s.
    Here's a partial list from Pg. 21 "DMSO’s Activities".
    • Has antimicrobial properties
    • Is a muscle relaxant
    • Increases production of white cells and macrophages, import cells for the immune system
    • Increases cell membrane permeability, allowing for removal of toxins
    • Is radioprotective, reducing the mutagenic and lethal effects of x-rays
    • Is an excellent heavy metal detoxifier, binding to aluminum, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, and nickel and eliminating them though urination and sweating
    • Is an effective pain killer, blocking nerves conducting pain signals
    • Is a bacteriostatic agent, meaning it inhibits the growth of bacteria
    • Acts as a diuretic
    • Reduces inflammation and swelling by affecting inflammatory chemicals
    • Increases delivery of oxygen to the cells
    • Has a calming effect on the central nervous system
    • Protects the cells from mechanical damage more rapidly than pharmaceutical drugs

    This is why they are constructing 15 minute cities. They want you to be in perpetual lockdown pretty much for the rest of your life.”
    15 Minute Cities
    From Niko: The biggest part of the 15 minute cities that you all are missing is the Carbon Credit.


    What is the Carbon Credit?
    This is where they're telling you that they want to monitor, track and trace every so called kilogram of CO2 that you emit. They say that global average needs to be 2 tons per person, per year, while you are using 16 tons per year which means that your activity needs to go down by 800%.


    So how do they plan to do that?
    Well first of all they have created these new black master cards that are going to have carbon allowance for every single purchase that you buy, and to make sure that everything has a so called "Carbon Credit" when you buy food or anything else. It’s now going to show you this nice little chart of how much kilogram of CO2 has been used in making of that product.

    Now for those that eat meat, it's going to be off the charts, so meat is a big no-no, but bugs are fine and completely safe until you consume them.

    When you buy stuff even at your local restaurant, it's going to be a requirement to show the amount of CO2 that was used in the production. Literally every single thing that you buy is going to be a tracked.

    They want to put limits on how much you can spend monthly, so we need to go down from 16 tons a year, per person, to 2 tons per year.


    What exactly does 2 tons per year look like?
    For example, let's check this on Google flights. If you wanted to fly from Florida to Paris, that flight is using 431 kg CO2. That's almost 25% percent of your YEARLY allowance, but don't worry if you happen to go over your limit, they will charge you $170 for every excess kilogram of carbon credit that you have used over the limit.
    Now imagine all that in a world without cash where government gets to control every single transaction.

    This is why they are constructing 15 minute cities. They want you to be in perpetual lockdown pretty much for the rest of your life.

    Just wanted to caution that I've seen a few different Elon Musk memes on the internet recently that I don't think are really Elon Musk, I think they are AI. The Elon Musk meme above about Oreo cookies sounds like an AI generated voice to me. Though I imagine there is a strong possibility that Oreos are in fact satanic.

    Pest control is a major gardening issue that comes up again and again. We want organic bug sprays and neem oil and pepper sprays and whatever will kill bugs in the garden. Yet we need to take a step back!

    Sometimes the best garden pest control is to grow different plants. Or to grow plants in a different way. Today you'll learn how to control garden pests by building a vibrant ecosystem and growing the plants that want to live in your backyard.

    Guilin, China
    Guilin is a city in southern China that is famous for its impressive landscapes formed by karst limestone.

    It gained its worldwide fame thanks to the amazing beauty of the landscapes - a unique combination of the waters of the Lijiang River, green mountains, stone grottoes and bizarre stones.

    All this beauty is complemented by a fertile climate - snow falls here extremely rarely, and flowers can be seen at any time of the year.

    CARMEN AMAYA has been called “the greatest Flamenco dancer ever“ and "the most extraordinary personality of all time in flamenco dance."

    She was the first female flamenco dancer to master footwork previously reserved for the best male dancers, due to its speed and intensity. She sometimes danced in high-waisted trousers as a symbol of her strong character. 1944

    This will Change Everything You Know (14 min)
    A snippet out of mini-sessions by Chamath Palihapitiya, an early senior executive at Facebook from 2007 to 2011:

    Social Media is “Ripping Apart” society. I think the tools that have been created today are starting to erode the social fabric of how society works. And what I meant by that is the following thing. Today we live in a world now where it is easy to confuse truth and popularity. And you can use money to amplify whatever you believe and get people to believe that what is popular is now truthful. And what is not popular may not be truthful.

    For example, Joe and I have we've been on the other side of climate for long time. And the reality is now I can take money and I can use that through all of the social media systems that exist, to hundreds of millions of people, and I can convince all of Joe's friends and everybody like him of my opinion and in very subtle and small ways. And he can do the same to me. We can do that about vaccines. We can do that about gay rights. We can do that about bathroom laws. So I think the question we have to ask ourselves is, “How do we live in a world where this is now possible?

    We know for a fact that what all these systems do, every single one is it exploits our own natural tendencies in human beings to get and want feedback. And that feedback chemically speaking is the release of dopamine in your brain. And so what these feedback loops do and they exist everywhere… they get you to react.

    "Young people cannot be trusted to form their own opinions. This business about open-mindedness is nonsense. It’s a waste of time trying to teach students to think for themselves. It’s our job to tell them."
    1964 Educational Film on Despotism (2:10)
    This 1964 educational film on “Despotism” was required curriculum at every high school in America. The associated 11 pages test quizzed students on the concepts. By 1967 this film was removed from all libraries.

    ~ Despotism - the exercise of absolute power, especially in a cruel and oppressive way.
