Blood Test Results After “Lubing my Arteries with Butter” for 3+ Years

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Nutrition

In spite of the diet I have practiced for well over 3 years now (which I’ll discuss in a moment), I’ve never been very interested in getting blood work done. My thinking has always been, why should I care about results that even the people taking or requesting them don’t understand.

Point blank: if a health practitioner does not truly understand what the results mean, or even what influences them up/down/left/right or center, why is the test even worth getting in the first place?

Not to mention, I was absent an actual problem that would motivate me to have these tests done. I’m 23 years old and in observably perfect health, with the exception of a damaged left knee (traumatic injury/high school football).

Anyway, after Keith decided to get his blood work done, my curiosity was peaked, and I decided I would at some point soon get the blood work done, at the very least to make an interesting blog post or…

The Pinnacle of Stupidity

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Independent Thinking

 
A former political leader in the US cannot make a conceptual distinction between free will and voluntary action, even after having it explained to him in the simplest terms possible.

This guy is not even a liar — he’s just fucking stupid.

Death Penalty for Lemonade Sales

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Independent Thinking

 
Sell lemonade without a permit in your front yard, stop, or face thousands in fines, and/or imprisonment.

Refuse to pay, refuse to be locked in a cage, and you’ll be shot when you defend yourself.

Grow a tree in your back yard?

If it’s not the right kind, you’ll be forced to remove it.

Refuse to remove it and you’ll be fined thousands. Refuse to pay and you’ll be imprisoned. Refuse to go to jail — by defending yourself — and you’ll be shot and most likely killed by armed law enforcement officers.

You have a right to sell lemonade on your own property. Anyone crazy enough to violate your right to do this, with a gun, deserves to be shot in turn.

This is how fucked up this country is. You sell lemonade on your own property only when we allow you to, or you die. It’s very sad how easily fooled people are. A fine or imprisonment with a threat of violence behind it is a death penalty if…

Ron Paul is Right: A Draft is Coming

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Independent Thinking

 
I’ve talked about military slavery — aka “the draft” — a lot on this blog. I talk about it because I hate it so much.

I talk about it because it is one of the “lines in the sand” for me. It’s a line I will never allow anyone to cross. Which literally means I would view a modern draft properly and accurately: as the threat to my life and liberty that it is.

Rationally, this means self-defense, which consequently means, retaliatory violent force directed against the individual or group of individuals attempting to conscript me.

In everyday speak, that means self-defense against law enforcement officers, which is a very taboo or “sacred cow” topic in America. It’s taboo because it requires a person to think, and think hard. The question being: does a law enforcement officer retain any authority when he himself breaks the law?

What about when he and five of his buddies break the law?

What about 10?

What about 100?

Of course, anyone…

Upcoming Events

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Event Architecture, The 21 Convention

There are half a dozen upcoming events you should consider attending this year. In chronological order they include,

I’ll be at PaleoFX 2012, all three 21 Conventions, and there is a slim chance I’ll make it to Primal Con. Paleo FX is going to be the biggest out of all 6 events. Attendees, speakers, volunteers, and staff, they should break 500 people, which is insane.

What’s even more crazy is that it’s not just one event, it’s 4 events in one, simultaneously, for two consecutive days. It will be the biggest, and best organized Paleo event to date. And if you can’t make it, don’t worry, they won’t mess up the videos like AHS 2011 did. I’m personally making sure they come out awesome =).

As for T21C, a lot of people have asked me about speaking lists, because I have not released any of them yet. I will soon, but I am in no rush this…
