i think maybe the silicon wasn't dry yet, this morning. i just ate a meal without having to endure the stench of drugs and smoke for the...

somebody smoked a large joint and i crashed hard this morning and missed my appointment again. but that's 12 hours of sleep, so let'...

i pointed out that my headaches seem to have resolved after boosting my b vitamins, specifically b5, which i think i was severely deficient ...

so, i was awake again on thursday afternoon and intended to get everything in order and have a long and productive day: === so, i've got...

i was up within a few hours and finished my fruit and took some pills, but it didn't really take and i found myself back at sleep until ...

so, before i sat down to make the fruit bowl, i turned the computer back on to check my email and found that the blood results had come in, ...

ever since i moved in here, i've been focusing on writing projects, and living mostly in my bed. when i decided to get up and out of bed...

it is now friday morning, and i've clearly been pre-occupied with my iron levels. but, how did i get here, and what else has happened? i...

so, i had to stop to do a first silicon run on the window in here because the stench was just vicious. the last few days have been sporadic,...

i want to be clear about what i said about testosterone and ferritin. my rbc counts are a little low - my ferritin counts are very low. so, ...

so, i've got some sleep and need to catchup, after i make some fruit.

conversely, if i do another test with iron levels right after i eat and it's still exceedingly low, then i'm going to need to react ...

yeah. the more i look into this, the less concerned i am about it.  this is a different reference range: The normal range for ferritin in yo...

see, when i look at a study like this... https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0235141 what are they doing, here...

this isn't exactly what i'm thinking, but it's in the right neighbourhood: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5066702/

but, my position is actually as follows, and i'm going to double down on it - i think i'm poorly evolved for the canadian climate. w...

does estrogen affect iron levels? it seems to be unclear, with studies arguing both positions. what i'm going to say is this: while it...

i guess i can't spare much blood, huh? what am i doing about this? well, i went to the store looking for heme iron and the only option w...

wait. i'm low in iron. i just got a blood test. now i'm tired. obviously?

i mean, look at the fruit bowl. yes, it has a lot of wheat bran. but, it has 100% of the iron (some of it fortified in the bran), 250% of th...

i could be just eating too much wheat, too: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2820048/ i need to do some typing, but i'm exhausted. i'...

i mean, i don't think it's going to work, but i need to try something until we can get a better idea of it.

i should get some heme supplements, for now.

i crashed this morning, but that wasn't unexpected.  so, should i eat meat? i don't have any good reason, at this point, to think it...

my counts are elevated - 1.0x10^9/L - but not high enough to bring up concerns like leukemia. and, this is the first notice of it.

i wonder if the high eosinophils response could be a reaction to cleaning down here. a few days ago, i was blowing dust out of my nose. i gu...

what i'm doing - bombarding myself with vitamins and trying as much as i can to avoid smoke - is about as much as can be done for ms. bu...

proving you have ms is hard. and, the unfortunate reality is that it doesn't help much, because there's no treatment options.

while jumping to conclusions on this is unjustified, i'm leaning back towards that old concern about ms, again.  i'm going to wait b...

i also have high eosonophils, for some reason. i don't actually  know what that means, but i'm going to need to find out.

so, i got some eggs this morning and crashed half way through eating them, took a nap, was up in the afternoon, spent a while cleaning mysel...

i'm probably going to need to finish the diet saga up to what exists  - or at least produce a rough first draft of it - in order to fini...

again, i didn't find myself learning much from the aztec episode, but it was enjoyable and engaging to watch. where did these people com...

i found myself pent up and frustrated and couped up last year and needed to get out. that's not going to happen, this year. this year, i...

that was more sleeping than i would have liked today, but at least it was during the actual day. i need to finish my coffee and make some pa...

this is a later reflection, about 2008-2009, on obama and his relation to bombing campaigns in the middle east. https://jasonparent.bandcamp...

i just want to clarify where i stood regarding "the war on terrorism". after the 2001 attacks, i was one of the first people point...

it's a shame they're sinking into the ocean - this is where i belong and want to be, not this backwards frozen wasteland full of dru...

just to be clear on a point... i tend to prefer to buy almost everything second hand; yes, i'm poor, and it's cheaper, but i'd ...

so, after looking at the options available to me, i decided that the cheapest option in front of me was actually to get a table shipped to m...

so, where am i with the cleaning and reinstalling, then? - i have completely cleaned my bedroom space from top to bottom. every nook and cra...

ok, so i can't do a brute force hack on the pasta bowl or the eggs and i don't want  to do a final run for the fruit bowl. i've...
