Running miles and miles

Was watching a guy run down the sidewalk today. He had a little backpack with water in it on his back.

So I guess he was going to run a couple of miles. And then I thought, “when in the history and evolution of mankind was that ever a good idea, or did that happen when it was Good thing?”

Like, I understand that we’re doing that for exercise now.

But 15,000 years ago, the only reason you would run, was to elude an animal or attacker. And even then, you didn’t run for hours.

Now, on the other hand, our natural history suggests that we walked fairly long distances to find grow or harvest food, and we worked quite hard whenever we got where we were going. There was also a lot of ‘physicality’ in surviving by way of food-preparation, game harvest, and shelter creation.

In other words, there was a lot of walking, and hard work.

But I don’t think that our ancestors ran for miles. In actuality I bet our bodies were only engineered to succeed in a 1/4 to 1/2 mile escape, OR be eaten. 

Survival of the fittest didn’t come down to running 5-10 miles in one long, terrifying dinosaur chase. Daily.

I think it’s unnatural. Unnecessarily concussive, disc-compressing, and heart straining. 

Fast walking? Great.

Swimming 1/2 mile? Sure. 

Walking 5 miles? Totally. 

Digging weeding planting or harvesting 400sq feet of garden? Yup. 

Running 5 miles with a heart-rate pushing “He’s almost got me, look at those sharp teeth!” 180bpm? That’s a No.

Who Says “ Toxic Masculinity”?


“Toxic masculinity” – When used by a new age Liberal female: Means testosterone and masculinity in an ‘actual’ man, who prizes a female who is feminine enough to trigger visceral desire. 
Men with toxic masculinity see the modern introverted, frumpy Liberal Women neutrally, like sweaty boys except they may have vaginas.

 

Commonly used by mostly plain-looking, damaged, and or obese females who were ever abused by, laughed-at by, pranked-by or rejected by males. “Toxic Masculinity” 
When used by today’s estrogen-rich, agnathic, soft bodied and soft spoken male: The term refers to their Dads and every other male who ever abused, laughed-at, pranked or rejected them. The legions of men who are obviously more manly and confident than them.  Damaged, videogamer forever-boys.
Modern males, intent on remaining boys and avoiding the protective functions, leadership and accountability qualities of actual “men” use the term to demean the manhood they will never achieve. 

Why?
 You can’t be ‘fired’ if you quit first. So, if you can’t attract a manly man or BE a manly man it ‘saves face’ and doesn’t feel as bad, if you’re pre-demonizing and devaluing them. 
 The men who ARE actual men, and the women who are emotionally and physically eligible to HAVE an actual “man”, do not use the term “Toxic Masculinity”.  
Just the misfits “On the outside looking in.”

Breakthrough in Feeding Dogs and Cats

People have struggled with the weight of their dogs, and CATS especially for a long time.
Putting a cat on a “diet” usually fails because the cats pester the owners while they try to sleep. Finally the owner gives up and decides “FINE STAY FAT”
With dogs, your family can double feed, over pour, mis-measure and add stuff to the food while they feed.
All that is solved with a good Automatic Feeder.
Yeah, I thought I didn't need one, too.
I thought “What a luxury. Not worth it.”
Now I think I'd never NOT have one.
With an autofeeder:
  1. Cats stop bothering you for food because they realize it's the Feeder and NOT YOU they have to bother.
  2. Dogs, same.
  3. Feeding a specified amount of dry food twice a day pulls weight off fat dogs.
  4. Not begging is nice
  5. Not being tempted to Put Something On The Food and fatten a dog up is nice.
All of this, with the wonder of an automatic feeder. I compare a couple here at drjohnson.com/autofeeders

Recovering Narcissists Can’t:

Because All Narcissists Always: 

  • Defend themselves
  • Say they’re being a victim
  • Dismiss the other person’s concern
  • Decline they did anything wrong
  • Minimize the actual impact
  • Criticize and fight to distract from the issue
  • Crawl back with obsequious promises and sugar

There’s literally nothing Recovering 

Narcissists can say without being “Narcissistic” even if sometimes they should. 

A Recovering Narcissists who doesn’t want to be that way:

  • Doesn’t defend themselves -> Recovering Narcissists have to “not defend” and can be blamed for anything and everything including both sides of the whole mess. 
  • Doesn’t say they’re being a victim > Recovering Narcissists can be treated any way you like.  They can be verbally abused, treated unfairly and insulted and cannot feel or claim they were wronged.
  • Doesn’t dismiss the other person’s concern -> In an argument you can expand, omit or embellish ‘facts’ to make a point and Recovering Narcissists can’t contest it. 
  • Doesn’t decline they did anything wrong -> Recovering Narcissists can be accused of anything real or recalled without contradiction. If Recovering Narcissists decline anything, especially false accusations, it’s gaslighting.
  • Doesn’t minimize the actual impact -> Experiences that trigger prior PTSD or ‘hit a nerve from a past life’ can get as ‘big and histrionic’ as they want without comment from Recovering Narcissists.
  • Doesn’t criticize and fight to distract from the issue -> Recovering Narcissists can be verbally abused and insulted and cannot get angry, respond or throw it back. 
  • Doesn’t beg, gift or ingratiate to get their partner back. The partner allows continuation, or burns it down. Recovering Narcissists just have to wait.

The Islamic brotherhood struggle with Israel, Egypt, Syria

I can’t remember when, but I happened onto some translations of texts about the Islamic brotherhood, and the struggles they have had in the Middle East. I thought these documents were very interesting, because they were written by a member of the Islamic brotherhood, perhaps a historian, and it seems the audience is the Islamic brotherhood. So I think it’s kind of unvarnished.

The pages are not in any particular order, there may be duplications, I don’t know enough, or honestly care enough to try to arrange and clean them up. But if they are interesting to you, then, yay.

How Much Should I Feed My Dog?

Badlands Ranch Beef & Salmon diet. 

That diet is interesting because it’s not the usual low-carb spread, it’s 30% protein and over 20% carbs. It’s fine as long as feeding that achieves a Body Condition Score of (BCS) BCS = 4-minus 

What’s a BCS 4 Minus? 

See:   

https://drjohnson.com/bcs/

Since that particular diet is 440c/cup and Charley is 10 pounds, you would feed 1/4 cup twice a day. And even that might be a LITTLE too much so if she got a bit rotund (BCS 4 plus) you’d cut back to 3 tbsp twice a day. 

I made a list of the BEST diets you could buy face-to-face in Marietta. Several from Hollywood Feed, some from Petco, and one from Costco. The one from Costco is JUST as good as the other six. 

https://drjohnson.com/diets-that-seem-to-help-or-even-fix-bad-skin-chronic-infections-and-allergies/

^^^These diets are held out as “good for skin and allergies” but in fact they are just top notch diets being free of chicken, free of grains, and they’re based on Salmon. 

Then if you wanted to actually cook for your dog, the easiest and best home cooked diet is the Salmon, Whey and Sweet Potato diet. There are two versions, one is “regular Carb” and the other is “Low Carb” and both are here:

^^^ The page contains the diet RECIPES and also, the breakout sheet of all the nutrients and their percentages and actually how much to feed.

How to eat to live

A few things

1) Recognize that sugar and sugary items are NOT FOOD. THEY AREN'T FOOD AT ALL. Sugar energizes you with multiple costs. Food nourishes you with no cost for a longer time.

2) Focus on proteins. Not even lean proteins. Just proteins. 

3)Discern between hunger and lack of hydration. 

4) Discern between boredom and hunger. 

5) Listen to your body when you DO eat. Getting full? Get ready to quit. Already full? Quit. Save it for later and enjoy it MORE. already full and can't quit? You're eating the wrong food – sugar or cheese is involved. Get away. 

6) Never shy away from physical activity. Take the elevator rather than the stairs, that doesn't matter. But never say “other people have to move that desk” or things like that. Keep moving. 

Everyone always said “iT's jUst uR aGe. yOu'LL c wEn u gEt oLdER. Hurrdurr” Bro, I'm 30 with a receding hairline and crunchy knees. How old do I have to get before my advice and experience is valid? LOLOL

If I exercised more and with purpose, I could eat way more, and more sugary things. As it stands though, defending my health involves cutting carbs and reducing unnecessary intake which is easy when you cut carbs. How many unflavored bites of chicken breast could you eat before you got sated? Not that many. WAY less than if it was coated with a delicious seasoning or worse, BBQ sauce (which is Satan's temptation. It's so good).

7) Recognize you are robbing your future self of future physical and emotional comfort by damaging your body. Your opinion of yourself matters and will be dictated by your regard for your meat suit. 

8) Similar to above, but recognize that you're probably going to get laid more (and better) if you take care of your body. Nobody likes to think of it like this, but would you rather have a cookie every day, or would you rather get laid every day? Hmmmmmmm. 

Pick whichever motivation you want, but it's a wise statement to say “if you want to see big changes, change the way you see things, not how you do things.”

Secret tip: #8 is huge. Just remember, when you put that snickers bar in your mouth, it's like spitting out a nice titty. Foolish. Just foolish. 

Still, were all humans, and food be scrumptious. It's why I do so well with black/white. No carb or all carb. No carb got me where I wanted after ROUGH transition periods. Nothing else did. Nothing. So I'll take the initially painful guarantee than the forever-painful gamble or worse, the forever painful, yet sugary guarantee of poor health.

Inbreeding Doodles for a Pure Line: BAD IDEA

WhatDidYouDoodle? (The End of A Valuable Mutt?)

If you, or someone you love, ever thought about buying a “Doodle” you should read and understand THIS!

Background: Once upon a time, a person crossed a poodle with a Labrador. They got a “Labradoodle”. And it was amazing because it was a sweet, healthy HYBRID of the two parents. Which combined low shedding, high durability, keen intelligence, or a decent size without being a large breed,

And they were cute, and they looked good. And they did not shed.

Then, they bred a poodle with a golden retriever. And got a “Goldendoodle”. It was also amazing.

Since then, they breed poodles with any breed out there. And it becomes a “InsertBreedaDoodle”. And to be honest, they’re pretty cool. And they don’t shed. And they're hybrids.

This is where the story gets really upsetting.
