My journey towards bowing to the feet of the Lord of Darkness has been a long one. I can’t be sure exactly where it began, if it was when I started using coconut flour to cut gluten out of my family’s diet, or if the seeds of demon worship were planted in me when I was forcing my kids to drink chlorella-and-milk-thistle smoothies to detox their livers. But I am pretty sure that by the time I threw out all our pediatric Tylenol and replaced it with colloidal silver, my love of Ammit, the eater of souls, was already being well established.

The fish oil to Mammon pipeline is surprisingly short. One minute you’re fermenting your own cider, and next thing you know, you’re pledging the souls of your offspring to Gruumsh, he who never ceases in human destruction. I admit that it must have been part of my online algorithm, because it was within weeks of buying that anti-fluoride chelating solution that I started getting targeted ads promising me a seat at the right hand of the Fallen One.

Donald Trump has signed an Executive Order nominally aimed at “Restoring Gold Standard Science”. Setting aside the absurdity of “restoring” something that never existed, what does that purport to mean? Gold Standard Science means science conducted in a manner that is: (i) reproducible; (ii) transparent; (iii) communicative of error and uncertainty; (iv) collaborative and interdisciplinary; (v) […]

“Republican Sen. Joni Ernst faced a number of agitated constituents at a town hall on Friday who expressed concerns that the Republicans’ cuts to Medicaid under their major legislative effort to advance President Donald Trump’s agenda would cause people to die. Her response: ‘Well, we all are going to die.’”

All flesh is but wheat chaff scattered by the breeze. And wheat chaff, as your claims specialist will inform you, is not covered under your mini-med limited-benefits plan.

You are an insulin drop trembling on the tip of an out-of-network EpiPen. Glimmering. Pure. Bankrupting.

Medicaid expansion is clinging, and clinging is the enemy of inner peace. The truly enlightened refuse coverage, choosing to drift from urgent care to urgent care like cherry blossoms on the wind. Like their pulse, thoughts of single-payer systems soon fade.

It’s striking how quickly certain segments of the Labour Party have been seduced by a right-wing, deregulatory approach to housing policy. Much of this, I’m sure, stems from a genuine desperation to tackle the housing crisis left by the Conservatives. We’ve inherited sky-high waiting lists, and homeownership is a distant dream for millions. But the […]

Believe it or not, I had a transcendent experience at this year’s Border Security Expo, the annual event that brings Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) together with private industry. I hesitate to describe it that way, though, because I was on the exhibition hall floor and instantly found myself in the very heart of the U.S. border-industrial complex. It was early April and I was surrounded by the latest surveillance equipment — camera systems, drones, robodogs — from about 225 companies (a record number for such an event) displaying their wares at that Phoenix Convention Center. Many of the people there seemed all too excited that Donald Trump was once again president. You might... Read more
