Got a friend with long-term psoriasis. On a monthly injection that keeps it manageable, but he's not completely clear. Basic topicals don't cure it for him either, but helps alleviate discomfort.

  1. My friend concluded that it was more so that conventional pesticides used in non-organic foods that were agitating his psoriasis (and health in general). Yes, the gluten STILL had some effect, but it was secondary in terms of how much it affected him. He found this out when observing that his flare ups were very mild in comparison when he ate organic breads, although he chooses not to eat much bread anyway in his diet. He eats plenty of rice just fine btw since it's gluten free. Although expensive, avoiding conventional pesticides (like glyphosate) in fruit and vegetables by buying organic is highly recommended too.

  2. It would be helpful if she tests to find out what other foods causes her to flare up. It varies so much from person to person so it's hard to know. My friend flares up hard when eating eggs or sauces with egg ingredients (mayo, alfredo sauce). Pasture-raised and grass fed made no difference. Baked goods and other foods with minor amount of egg have a negligible effect, but he limits that stuff anyways. Sesame oil also flares it up for him.

  3. Avoid too much fast-food. There's just so much crap in that stuff that it's just healthy in general to avoid it. Not saying you should avoid it 100%. A good compromise is to eat more homecooked meals than fast-food during a week.

  4. On carnivore. He gave it a really good shot (lion's diet variation), but it was miserable for him. And though it was healthier, paleo had a negligible effect on his psoriasis (I think because he was eating non-organic veggies). I think it's a more realistic perspective to look at those diets as elimination diets. The health comes more so from what you eliminate than what you're eating IMO, although yes, there are good nutrients and minerals in meat, but I don't think that's the thing that's making the person feel better. It's more so what they DON'T consume (pesticides, seed oils, overly processed) anymore. There are other elimination diets that you can try besides carnivore (AIP, Whole30, etc).

Although you already know this, when finding out what foods trigger flare-ups, it's best to observe the effect after 24 hours. They don't necessarily happen right away. Sometimes the effect can be subtle, so it's best to be VERY observant the next day. There are formal food allergy tests too if you want to try that. Healing psoriasis patches can take time (weeks even) so hopefully she'll be patient when she doesn't see results right away. What's important right now is to identify what food makes her patches noticeably more itchy than usual the next day.

I don't really understand if the constant lashing-out of this post was necessary. Perhaps frustration boiled over to the point where it couldn't be contained. But I get it. I sympathize. I've been in that state before dealing with people on social media.

Anyway, from what I've seen, a lot of popular influencers have prematurely concluded that Trump is siding with Israel, denouncing him, but are unable to consider that maybe it's simply one step in a grand scheme. I hate giving cliches, but I think it's basically just one move as part as a bigger chess game for leverage. Slowly and carefully dismantling satanic structures and deception without giving way to societal chaos. People of both sides always want things to be done directly and conveniently in one step, but Trump's team doesn't seem naive and they seem to understand that complicated issues must be dealt with carefully in sequentially planned steps; careful engineering instead of clumsy brute force that might give way to unnecessary death and harm. Instead of breaking the whole dam, it's more of a "drip drip," especially if you take into consideration the possibility of the "Samson option."

As for the criticisms on the "awaken" people, I think it's best to give them some grace and patience. No one is perfect and those who have woken up do so at varying and different stages. Initially for many, from the first red pills of information they are exposed to, they may start blaming all jews, then perhaps later move onto learn about the "khazarian mafia" or satanists. Even if you're unhappy with their progress and how they label things, I still think they're heading towards a direction that slowly sharpens their discernment and clarifies all these layers of subversion as they go. It simply takes a while for people to learn how deep this subversion is and how it's used by these powers; how they hide behind multiple groups, organizations, labels and use them as shields for misdirection.

I get lashing out in frustration (I make this mistake all the time), but I DO think enlightening people with grace usually makes it easier for people to be open minded and reconsider their perspectives. Perhaps this post was more aimed at the popular social media influencers that are SO SURE of their takes, but for everyday people, I haven't really heard one that claims to know everything. Most I see are humble enough to be open minded to new information.

So tired of Don and false equivalencies everywhere by immature woke leftist liberals. He should really get it to his dumb head that the people being pulled are illegal immigrants/invaders and people harassing and attacking law enforcement. Illegals are not citizens and they are "processed" as such, quickly and swiftly. Falsely equating all this to the civil rights movement is so laughable, but the woke leftist liberals just fall for anything and are easily manipulated by surface level labels and phrasing by legacy media without deep thinking.

If the woke had actual brains to comprehend this image they'd seethe at their own ignorance, but they'd be too arrogant to accept truth anyways if they could...

The woke mob still live under the delusion that they are "good" people, yet agitate and harass people and STILL somehow expect to be liked and supported by people with brains? No self-awareness whatsoever.

Like some have said, their values of "compassion and empathy" are often hypocritical. They don't even meet their own standards, but point fingers at everyone else but their own selves. Zero self-reflection or accountability.

It's also laughable that they are protesting for the sake of keeping criminals, scammers, and assaulters in their communities that have absolutely ZERO shame in hurting or taking advantage of them. "Useful idiots"...

It's hard to know for sure what exactly happened during his time as director. My guess is that he faced a lot of impediments and political blockages/redtape in terms of getting justice done to the degree and breadth he wanted to. Combine that with a lot of people's valid frustrations of how it seemed like there wasn't enough done and I can see why there's frustration and agitation on Bongino's side too dealing with that sort of response. If the world dogpiles you even if you did the best you could under unpublicized restraints, you'd get frustrated too.

It honestly reminds me and mirrors a lot of Elon's crashout after finding all the fraud with DOGE and seeing how the Big Beautiful Bill didn't clean it all up completely. Lots of effort and stress, for not as much gain as expected.

Although you'll hear otherwise from the feminine (nagging, complaints, distaste for "patriarchy"), feminine energy is USUALLY attracted to a stable, secure, rock-like masculine figure. That's not to say there aren't going to be moments of conflict or disagreement, but in general, these two dynamics and energies complement each other very well. The problem with soy boys is that they take on too much feminine energy on their own so the balance is out of whack. They also take what women say at face value so they go along with being soft because they believe that's what these liberal women want based on what they say on the surface in order to "attract" or win them over, or so they think that's how it'll turn out...

For SOME women (not all), this lack of a masculine energy or "rock" results in a very emotionally chaotic and unstable life. I know it's corny, but the best analogy I can use is that feminine energy is like splashing water on the sidewalk. It splatters everywhere with no coherent direction. It's a powerful energy, for sure, but without direction it's wasted and can be exploited by others (like media & immature groupthink) to create chaos in society and future generations. The RIGHT kind of masculine energy is like a sturdy container or hose that can help direct that energy in the right, responsible, and thriving direction, for the individual AND collective society/community. Instead of splashing it on the sidewalk it can be directed to plants or whatever. This is why a lot of women prefer a guy who actually has goals and things to do OUTSIDE of fawning over a woman every waking moment of his life. It might be fun to get that amount of attention overload at first, but over the long-term it's a dead end. Despite liking it, at the same time, women can get bitter and annoyed at their partner over time because of this.

The only issue you might run into is a weak or misguided container/hose from the man. That's where it becomes a gamble, unfortunately, if you're talking about romantic partners. However, you can get this masculine energy from other areas in your life, like a competent father figure or a close, trustworthy family figure.

Liberal left wokies only get a small window of opportunity to "wake up" and it involves going through an external event that shakes them out of their delusional bubble for a short moment. THEN and ONLY WHEN they take the initiative examine themselves (actually being responsible and mature enough to use self-reflection, accountability, objectivity on themselves and their bubble) and actually see the inconsistencies between what is said by their group and media and MAYBE actually feel slighted/exploited/betrayed will they ever wake up.

The simple matter is, you're essentially dealing with children in adults bodies pretending to know it all. They think labeling you a bad name (n--i, racist, etc), screeching loudly over you, throwing rioting tantrums, using adult versions of "no u", violence, and deflection are legitimate "wins" in their book and they back-pat each other as if they achieved some victory for doing so, but it's really just a means to cower away from a legitimate debate and uncomfortable truths they can't handle for some reason as adults. They are children who think they are Disney/Marvel superheroes fighting a big bad evil so they will twist reality into fantasy and disingenuously frame any situation to their liking instead of objectively laying out the facts. They will even twist things to the point of betraying their own values and being hypocritical to their own "virtues"; where they constantly point fingers and hold everyone else to a certain moral standard that they can't even meet on themselves. Double standards and false equivalencies everywhere.

Look to the Mao's Red Guard for a parallel comparison. Youthful students under the delusion that they were being violent and screeching for the greater good. Only DECADES later, A FEW actually looked at themselves outside their bubble objectively came to regret their behaviors. I have no faith in today's liberal left wokies as it's not only younger kids, but older delusional "adults" who fall for it as well. They don't understand that their desires to be "good people" can be easily exploited. They oversimplify and remove the nuance from every human issue like it's a short 2 hour kids movie.

It's like fish who don't notice the water they've been swimming in their whole lives. They need to be taken out of the liberal bubble by an external event to actually have an opportunity to mature and think objectively. Save and protect your energy. They need and feed off your validation more than you need theirs.

The nuance here is that they took the most extreme knee-capping solution instead of regulating it in a more measured way. Rand, in his rebuttal, said he offered solutions and ideas for more regulation, but was scoffed at essentially. I don't disagree with you getting rid of bad actors and products, but surely there was a better and more measured way to handle it than what was snuck into the CR bill by McConnell. Hopefully there is legislation that is approved within the year before this all unravels.

They also had understandable reasons to question the CR bill which snuck in severe limits to the hemp industry. Someone on here keeps posting how it's about removing bad actors, which is understandable, but why not set rational regulations instead of knee-capping the whole industry? Rand even stated that he and others have proposed and offered these sort of solutions before.

It's astounding because we have recent and past examples of what Islamic invasion entails; current day UK and invasions throughout Europe centuries ago. To turn a blind eye to clear examples staring NY voters in the face is supreme idiocy. Yeah yea, "it's RIGGED THO!!" In my real world experience, not enough people are awake even after years and years of events and opportunities to do so. I don't deny the reality of rigged elections, but that doesn't dismiss that a large portion of people, perhaps a majority, are just naive, oblivious, and will remain that way. I'm suspicious of the 4-6% claim as it doesn't seem reflective of what's actually happening.

Adding onto that, what's even worse is when they start doing it to themselves. I saw and spoke to so many of them before DJT got re-elected. They were telling each other that they were going to get rounded up and killed, that all of a sudden all of the trans were somehow going to die. I saw kids of parents being scared sh*tless by the disingenuous fear-mongering their parents fed to them about some non-existent MAGA boogie-man coming to get them. Crazy how they don't see that they are doing it to themselves.

I even reminded them, "Hey...um we already had 4 years of Trump before, did any of that happen?" They cowardly exited the conversations by calling me names and referencing the end of the world b/c of Project 2025. I couldn't help but face-palm at their self-inflicted hysteria.

Yeah it's tough. I sympathize. I have two good friends I'm too stubborn to let go of, but they are EXTREMELY liberal/woke and double down on everything. I don't talk to them much anymore, but I still pray that they will be granted discernment. It's been years now waiting...

The woke liberal is notorious for false-equivalencies. The oversimplify and distort nuanced reality to fit into their biases instead of looking at things as they are with their evaluations. It's like that meme picture of DJT sitting on a chair or sipping on water and showing a picture of Hitler doing the same and saying they are the exact same person. It's laughable and immature. That's what they are, petty children. They are not adults who think responsibly. They are the easiest to manipulate and have their supposed "kindness and compassion" taken advantage of by media and other forms of influence.

Lol. They're trying sooo hard. They don't realize they need to start with the foundation of being authentic first and foremost, not being fake posers that say and do anything (including being hypocrites) to gather votes. Those with discernment see through the BS.

No problem! And thanks for your posts as well. We're all doing our part. Glad you were introduced to him.

You don't have to watch this, but this is the clip that made rounds and made him viral last year.

Reminder that Islam is a poisoned religion from its very origins and Muslims are acting towards their own spiritual demise without realizing it.

For a a more historical and non-woo woo context. Raymond Ibrahim (a long time historian that worked once at the Library of Congress) has a great Youtube channel and has been going viral lately giving a more truthful and realistic depiction of Islam's violence throughout the centuries. He's written popular books like, "Sword and Scimitar" and "Defenders of the West". Example videos:

"What Is — and Isn't — Wrong with Islam?" - 7 Minute Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEU38ps8JuA

"White Women Are Just for Sex!” Islam’s Eternal Fantasy - 9 Minute Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSH7AvlbAFU

If you are okay with a woo-woo spiritual perspective, this person (a former Muslim) theorizes the archangel that inspired Mohammed and the beginnings of the Islamic religion was an evil entity that was mistaken as a good one.

"Islam's Angel Gabriel Revealed! MUST WATCH!" - 15 Minute Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gllUSqHZGMg

Note: I have no affiliation with these channels. I simply feel the truth must be spread about Islam because its evil doctrine (Jihad) has been sanitized to gullible people who believe it to be an innocent religion.

mayolettuce 3 points ago +3 / -0

Reminder that the origins of Islam may have been likely a Satanic entity or "Jinn" tricking Mohammed, not some benevolent archangel people claim it to be. Muslims rarely question the authenticity of this entity, blindly believing that it must've been good. It's a religion that mixes very generalized feel-good tenets with the poisoned philosophy of justifying abuse and death upon non-believers. Millions don't realize they've been tricked into their own spiritual demise with the concept of Jihad.

Evil can only manipulate and whisper in the ears of humans to do their bidding for worldly rewards. Evil doesn't have the power of pure creation and manifesting miracles. Nothing about this "archangel" exemplifies Godliness. It's an evil entity doing what evil entities do which is tricking humans and having an insatiable god-complex.

Edit: Former Muslim's take on Islam's origins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gllUSqHZGMg

Raymond Ibrahim, a historian, sets the realistic context of Islam's history https://www.youtube.com/@RaymondIbrahim-HW/videos

I have no affiliation with both. I just think it's good information.

The whole Sandy Hook incident is suspicious as heck. The footage of officers meandering around, Alex Jones getting sued into oblivion... These supposed mass casualty incidents are manipulative and annoying, but also effective because if you try to question anything at all, the public kvetches and immediately shuts down any discussion, labeling you as some kind of insensitive bigot resulting TPTB getting away with the mass manipulation.
