Have We Been Looking in the Wrong Place? I’ve been a surgeon for over 25 years, and the longer I practice, the less I’m interested in structure — and the more I’m drawn to physiology. I don’t ignore the structure… but I weigh the findings differently. Early in my career, I

No Peace Prize for Trump: he waited till the atrocities had been implemented, Gaza flattened, 60,000 civilians killed, kids maimed on a genocidal scale. Bottom line: US will never sanction Israel the only way that would work, by stopping arms sales.

Good. Excellent. The court upholds the freedom to protest. 💥 theguardian.com/australia-news…

We need a national campaigns that teaches the general population why “catching it early” is a little more complicated than we think. Currently I reckon 99% of everyone thinks testing to ‘catch it early’ is only ever a good thing.

100 years ago milk was pasteurized, copper was a popular insecticide and magnesium was used for fruiting trees, and hens lived in yards and sheds - no-one "pastured" poultry.

Can the media please just ignore Barnaby Joyce? He's playing you for all the attention he can get - for doing nothing. It's been like that for a long time!

I realise this type of post/info is a “contrarian’s” wet dream. So let me add: For almost all other interventions, not only is there no high quality evidence, there often isn’t any relevant scientific evidence at all!

The irredeemably stupid Sussan Ley shoots herself in the foot for a second time in a week with the distraction of confected outrage.

High time we got rid of the lot of ‘em. It is absurd and demeaning to pretend that this creaking, dysfunctional family somehow reigns over us. abc.net.au/news/2025-10-3…

Excellent post on low carb without eggs. Especially the comment on "cold food". This is the norm in Europe where cold meats, cheese and yogurt/quark are common low carb breakfast fare. For example, I regularly eat cold meats left over from the previous night.
