Science: What makes LGBT people gay?

(SLICE Science) Can science explain human sexual orientation | Experts Explain

There's a cause/reason for it?

The great Dr. Joel Wallach, Ph.D. (criticalhealthnews.com) asserts that all ailments are caused by nutritional deficiencies, not inherited genetics. His proof? He can cure them with supplementation. He is the only person to prevail in a lawsuit with the FDA for making nutritional claims about supplements (micronutrients, trace minerals, vitamins). He cures many people of many of the most common and difficult conditions.

Treatment? Surgery and flag making is better!

Dr. Wallach solved the SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) crisis that is no longer talked about because he advocated for the supplementation of baby formula so that it doesn't happen now. He solved the mass coral die off, which is happening due to ocean acidity more than temperature. It was brought on by the building of many dams rather than allowing the normal outflow of fresh water eroded base minerals into the seas.

We want our kids to be gay and choose genders!

He can cure diabetes, warns against the use of statin drugs, praises natural cholesterol (the root of testosterone and a natural antioxidant product of the body), has a great deal of criticism for Big Pharma and mainstream for-profit medical care, and he even solved one of the biggest mysteries of our day: Why are so many kids being born with transgender tendencies?

Dolphins: the gayest animal in the sea

Presumably it has something to do with gender, sexuality, orientation, preference, and feeling at home in the body we are born into. The cause? A deficiency in one trace mineral during a critical period of gestation. If the mother is deficient, this will happen. But the news tells us to praise it, cheer it on, be happy for it.

There are also synthetic chemicals in the water, air, and soil (collectively called our environment). These forever chemicals and plastic byproducts mimicking hormones also have an impact. Other scientists do not talk about his research, patents, therapies, and procedures. Meanwhile, he and his affiliated organizations keep curing people. And everyone else does what?

21 million years of kissing (BBC News)

Nazi Nordic ideal of naked apes (Klaus/Barbie)

Humans have only been going at it for less than 5,000 years, according to science: Archaeologists discover evidence of first human kiss -- and it happened 4,500 years ago. However, kissing (smooching, pecking, making out, speaking French) has been going on much, much longer.

The first ever recorded kiss [discovered so far] happened 4,500 years ago, scientists suggest after discovering evidence that puts the event 1,000 years earlier than previously thought. A study published in the journal Science points to evidence of kissing in the ancient Middle East, in early Mesopotamian societies, documented in ancient texts from 2,500 BCE.

Kissing?

(BBC via MSN) Humans do it, monkeys do it, even polar bears do it. And now researchers have reconstructed the evolutionary origins of kissing. Their study suggests that the mouth-on-mouth kiss evolved more than 21 million years ago, and was something that the common ancestor of humans and other great apes probably indulged in.

The same research concluded that Neanderthals may have kissed too – and that [modern] humans and Neanderthals may even have smooched one another. The scientists studied kissing because it presents something of an evolutionary puzzle -- it has no obvious survival or reproductive benefits. Yet, it is something that is seen not just in many human societies, but across the animal kingdom. More

LYRICS: "Voila"

"Voilà" (English translation) – Barbara Pravi (Genius Lyrics)

Listen to me, me, the half singer

Talk about me, to your loved ones, to your friends

Tell them about this little girl with black eyes and crazy dreams

What I want is to write stories that you will hear about

That's all

[CHORUS] Voilà, voilà, voilà, here is who I am

Here I am, even if I'm scared as I'm naked, yes

Here I am in the noise and in silence

Look at me, or at least what's left of it

Look at me, before I hate myself
What can I say that another hasn't already said?

I don't have much, but I place here what I do have

Voilà

[CHORUS] Voilà, voilà, voilà, here is who I am

Here I am, even if it's the end as I'm naked

That's my face, that's my scream, here

I am, never mind

Western Buddhist nun Bhikkhuni Gotami is wise

Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà right here

Me, my dream, my will, how

I'm dying from it, how I'm laughing at it

Here I am in the noise and in silence

Do not leave, I'm begging you to stay for a long time

It might not save me, no

But I don't know how to live without you

Love me how you would love a friend who's leaving forever

I want to be loved, because I don't know myself how to like the shape of me

[CHORUS] Voilà, voilà, voilà, here is who I am

Here I am, even if it's the end as I'm naked

Here I am in the noise and in rage, too

Finally, look at me and my eyes and my hands

All I have is here, it's my face, it's my scream

Here I am, here I am, here I am

Voilà, voilà

Voilà, voilà

Soft sex robots coming: ChatGPT's Omni

Can you make one in the image of my ex?

The Daily Show's Desi Lydic talks about the AI (artificial intelligence) program, OMNI (the OpenAI version of ChatGPT) to fuel the sexbots to come, all soft and siliconey, wet with H20 and scented with synthetic pheromones for the full immersive experience of sex beyond human ability. Who will go back to mere roasted coffee after indulging in meth-laced pharmaceutical grade amphetamines like Ritalin?

Realistic-looking robot with soft skin, soothing voice

(FOX 11 Los Angeles) Uncanny valley, anyone? Her name is "Harmony," a Scottish lassie. She's a realistic-looking robot with soft skin and a soothing voice. She is what some are calling "the future of relationships." FOX 11's Gina Silva reports: foxla.com/news...

What if a man with no robotics training could build his own "anatomically correct" Scarlet Johansson robot at home? It's like Moliere's School for Husbands (School for Wives) all over again.

My DIY "anatomically correct" ScarJo robot

(Quartz) Machines with Brains (S1 E3): Chinese Christian Mr. Ricky Ma has no formal training in robotics. He spent three years and $50,000 building a robotic Scarlett Johansson. Mr. Ma is a graphic designer from Hong Kong. Without formal training, he spent three years building "Mark One," an extremely lifelike robot that looks exactly like Scarlett Johansson, famous for her role in Her (2013) out of hardware store supplies. Oh, and it she's not a sexbot (sex robot), so don't even go there (or I face legal action from a recently very litigious Mrs. Colin "SNL" Jost, who refuses to become the voice of the next Siri/Alexa).

Pleasure, end laziness, dopamine detox (video)

Dopamine detox: Take back control of life and stop laziness! | Dr. Andrew Huberman

(Tom Bilyeu) As for dopamine, people have been obsessing and hearing about this neurochemical and its role in human behavior for years. We may think of it as the "feel-good happy hormone," or we may associate it with addiction, love, lust, and sex.

The Practical Neuroscience of Buddha's Brain

As our lives convert over to a totally digital experience that is with us everywhere we are in the form of a cell phone, dopamine detox has even started gaining in popularity.

Dr. Andrew Huberman from the Huberman Lab is here again to unpack some of the more surprising discoveries and uses of dopamine. He compares dopamine to a biological "currency" that plays a role in human desire for more and more (Buddhist craving and clinging, not being able to let go even in the face of suffering/disappointment).

Dopamine is the catalyst pushing humanity forward exploring things like cryptocurrency and pushing our limitations and what is possible, but is all of that for the sake of pleasure and feeling good?

Dr. Huberman breaks down the balance of pain and pleasure, arousal and relaxation, and gives us the insight we need to start regulating our body’s dopamine release.

If we thought dopamine was all about feeling good, Dr. Huberman is about to reveal why it’s more about what motivates us in the pursuit of something greater.

Quotes

Is weed the solution? How marijuana affects brain and body (Dr. Andrew Huberman)

.

“When I say dopamine is the universal currency of everything, what I mean is, it's driving the motivation to develop new currencies.” [3:08]

“Celebrating the win more than the pursuit, it actually sets you up for failure in the future.” [16:00]

“If you can start to register that craving, and that friction and that desire, that almost kind of low level of agitation, sometimes high level of agitation...that's dopamine” [17:54].

“Your capacity to tap into dopamine as a motivator, not just seeking dopamine rewards, that is infinite.” [19:34]

“It's the craving that makes me feel alive. So it's the state of wanting that is in and of itself, the pleasurable act.” [22:37]

“It doesn't matter if it's Bitcoin or Ethereum, it doesn't matter if it's putting rockets on other planets, it doesn't matter if it's building the first automobile, it's the same currency.” [25:27]

And so we go back to this example of the person who's not motivated and can't get off the couch and doesn't want to do anything. Well, this is the problem. Remember the rat experiment? They are effectively the rat with no dopamine..." [27:47]

“Dopamine itself is not the reward. It's the buildup to the reward, and the reward has more of a kind of opioid bliss like property.” [29:51]

“The more pain you experience, the more dopamine you can achieve. If you get back on the avenue of pursuit.” [30:58]

“I would say addiction is a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you pleasure, and I don't like to comment too much on enlightenment...but a good life is a progressive expansion of the things that bring you pleasure, and even better is a good life is a progressive expansion of the things that bring you pleasure and includes pleasure through motivation and hard work.” [32:55]

“If you think about most of the growth in life comes from these rigidly externally imposed schedules and we hate them. But they are where we learn restraint.” [52:42]
