Eating cheese affects your brain the same way narcotics do.
Cheese happens to be especially addictive because of an ingredient called casein, a protein found in all milk products. During digestion, casein releases opiates called casomorphins. “[Casomorphins] really play with the dopamine receptors and trigger that addictive element,” registered dietitian Cameron Wells told Mic. :blink: |

Quoting from the linked article above: “Basically, if milk is cocaine then cheese is crack.” I found this interesting about casomorphins: they don’t facilitate health in a positive way. Casomorphins in dairy products, especially as it is exponentially largely concentrated in cheese, impacts your health in a myriad of negative ways. Thanks for your post Gemme about cadomorphins. |
Roy Oliver Disney and his son Roy E. Disney 👍
In my daily readings across the web, I somehow have come across Roy Disney (Walt’s older brother), as Roy’s way of processing life, which has been cited in numerous literature studies done on mimicry (the unconscious stuff we copy from others we like or are attracted to).
I liked two quotes by Roy Oliver Disney (ROD) and his son Roy E Disney(RED): “It’s not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are,” (ROD) “It’s not the magic that makes it work: it’s the way we work that makes it magic,” encapsulates the essence of success. Often, we tend to attribute achievements solely to the element of magic or luck, disregarding the hard work and determination behind them(RED). |
Two things that made me smile and laugh out loud yesterday. Driving through town yesterday, there was a bird in a deep puddle beside the road and was splashing like crazy to give herself a bath. I could feel that bird's joy.
Later I was reading comments after a MSNBC article on line. Now I know I shouldn't read comments because often I am saddened to read/see the illness of my fellow citizens. This one commentator referred to DJT by saying "IQ 45" lol. Yep he wants to brand everything with a 45 and I thought that was perfect. |

The thing that bothers me the most, as well as deeply concerning, is the cult of followers who follow him over the proverbial cliff. I wish I could articulate what the most important issue to address concerning IQ-forty five, but just reading the updates page over on CNN is enough to scare anyone who lives in the US. If Alvin Bragg gets a jury to convict him of his fraudulent crimes, it would certainly make the “no one is above the law” argument believable. So far, all I see is that person getting special treatment and not being successfully held accountable for their years and fucking years of bad ass behavioral choices. In case anybody forgets, let’s remember how he LIED about COVID-19 and the millions of people who believed his lies and the thousands who died due to his lies. Your post made me smile, tho, nhplowboi. Thanks for sharing your observations today. |
You know, I realized I always have a fresh bag of baby spinach in my refrigerator. I probably eat the whole bag in a week. I add it to salads, I dice it up and add to stir fry, put scrambled eggs on top of it. It's a filler and sooo good for you!

I was looking out the window today at the birds and squirrels in my yard. The birds were like a box of crayolas with wings. There are blue jays, goldfinch, red headed woodpeckers, starlings, catbirds, morning doves, orioles, cardinals and I saw my first rose breasted grosbeak of the year. The squirrels are out there running around and looking for the peanuts the jays haven't found. What really caught my attention was when I say a squirrel pick up a piece of outer leaf bok choy I had thrown out there and started eating it. ???!!!!! Of course I had to look it up and little did I know that after reading a North American Nature article they actually like and "prefer bok choy, broccoli, arugula, red or green cabbage, chayote, cauliflower, purslane, watercress, and mushrooms." Who knew?! Now I know where all my outer leaves will go and make a squirrel happy to boot.

It is nice to have lots of birds and squirrels and other wildlife around. BUT we got a notice of the lastest law in Ontario. NO feeding any wildlife unless it is little birds and the food must be protected from squirrels. I guess that means racoons too. Skunks can't climb so they are safe. I will be in a position to become a lawbreaker for the first time in my life except a speeding ticket or two. I refuse to stop feeding the fur babies for anyone. They are use to being fed so they look for it.

I hope all those Republican sycophants traveling to NY to stand outside the courthouse and get some free TV time while supporting djt and vying for that Vice Presidential position, are doing it on their own dime. I think they should all read Rick Wilson's book "Everything Trump Touches Dies" and think long and hard about what they are doing and how it might affect the future of their political careers.

Please save America: Vote Blue for Democracy

I had no idea there was a book published about the T——p effect. The saddest part of all is that that former president is still collecting from the impoverished American tax base (the collective ‘dime’). And,,,, if everything that he touches dies (proverbially), then does this mean our country dies too??? I hope not. But it could very well happen due to those who enable and keep perpetuating into pertuity the same big lie they’ve been cultivating for years. Thankfully, people who care about telling the truth and demonstrating what a good moral compass looks like have shown up to make sure they are not associated with T——p: Like, Geoff Duncan, Lt Gov of Georgia — right? Geoff is the polar opposite of T——p. Where is Liz Cheney? I don’t agree with her Republican ideology either but you gotta give these particular Republicans kudos for standing up against the rising tide of crime within their own ranks of the GOP. Same for Democrats who stand tall and don’t accept bribes. We need to make sure both the HOUSE and the SENATE are occupied and controlled by Democrats. Hakeem Jeffries has been instrumental in leading democrats since the departure of former House Speaker Emeritus Nancy Pelosi. Thanks for your post today, nhplowboi. Appreciate your take on what is going on in our country. |
Mike Johnson
is a groupie for trump at the courthouse today. When your family is too busy running businesses to the ground, getting work done on their 'kidneys', murdering elephants and giraffe, you have to send in the 3 transactional pals you have.
Let us not forget Johnson was one of 147 Republicans who voted to overturn the election. The movie Idiocracy anybody? |

I read an Op-Ed by a resident of Berlin over on CNN, this morning. People in Germany see the exact same thing that happened years ago when Hitler used his diabolical charisma to get others to do his bidding. They are scared sick that this will happen again. And they aren’t fooled by T——p’s rhetoric or his law breaking members of congress. Make no mistake: if people let this diabolical madman and his cronies near the levers of political power to overtake America, then big trouble will commence across the world in ways no one can escape. Can you believe the chaos king’s choices in court this past 20 days??? Thank heavens for New Yorkers who represented courtside and demonstrated how this criminal case is not about lying about having sex with a pornstar. It’s about his insatiable ability to lie lie lie and lie lie lie so he can deny deny deny what we all know to be the unvarnished truth: it’s about Election Interference and destabilizing our country and democracy. It’s “for the people, by the people” …. May the unvarnished truth prevail and may the entire American electorate show the world that there is no future that includes T——p. May he rest in jail for the rest of his life. That’s how I feel about that individual. Once American society rejects the orange monster, we will all breathe a bit better. But it won’t be over until all the people in positions of power who fall behind him, in rank and file, are removed from their posts as well. |

How appropriate djt is found guilty on May 30th, the true Memorial Day. Not only has the jury spoken, so have all the fallen heroes spoken, the ones you called suckers and losers and it was appropriately done so on their most sacred day. God bless America!

The Strawberry Moon will shine bright and low this Saturday June 22. Should see it Friday June 21 but not quite as bright. The native people saw this moon as a time to start picking strawberries as they would be at their ripe stage. They would say if you pick one, remove the stem and the strawberry had a heart shaped centre at the top then it would be good luck and a good happy year. It was a time for love and forgiveness. The Ojibwa, the Dakota and Lakota belived in this. (two of the Sioux nation). If you do not believe then just enjoy the taste of this wonderful fruit, a gift from mother nature.

I was watching MSNBC this morning and their guest was Dr. Kevin Roberts, the current President of the Heritage Foundation. What a smug and pompous man who is highly involved in the Project 2025 agenda. I was yelling at my TV before I knew it! I'm at a loss in understanding what is happening to our country. How in hell have these hate filled people found their way to the top of the Republican heap. Never mind I guess I just answered my own question.

Smug and pompous is the GOP trademark, for sure. Don’t know if other people know this or not, but Sinclair media is owned by right wing Republican forces.

With seemingly unstoppable momentum during the summer of 1967, on 18 May The Beatles signed a contract to represent the BBC, and Britain, on Our World, the world’s first live television satellite link-up to be seen by approximately 400 million people across five continents.
The Beatles’ appearance was announced four days later, on 22 May. John Lennon wrote the song ‘All You Need Is Love’ especially for the occasion, to the brief given by the BBC: it had to be simple so that viewers around the world would understand it. "We were big enough to command an audience of that size, and it was for love. It was for love and bloody peace. It was a fabulous time. I even get excited now when I realise that’s what it was for: peace and love, people putting flowers in guns." Ringo Starr Anthology Our World took place on 25 June 1967. Between the announcement and the broadcast date, The Beatles recorded the rhythm track and some basic vocals. |
