Been many a year since I heard that expression!

Or drug testing for pills at dance raves. Even IF the pill contains no toxic impurities it can still kill stone dead a person who’s system cannot process the drug.
Psyche Drugs Mess You Up
Never a truer word spoken! All you have to do is read the label to see they cause increased risk of suicide and homicidal ideation to recognise they are the problem, not guns.
Plummeting insect numbers ‘threaten collapse of nature’
The world’s insects are hurtling down the path to extinction, threatening a “catastrophic collapse of nature’s ecosystems”, according to the first global scientific review.
More than 40% of insect species are declining and a third are endangered, the analysis found. The rate of extinction is eight times faster than that of mammals, birds and reptiles. The total mass of insects is falling by a precipitous 2.5% a year, according to the best data available, suggesting they could vanish within a century.
The planet is at the start of a sixth mass extinction in its history, with huge losses already reported in larger animals that are easier to study. But insects are by far the most varied and abundant animals, outweighing humanity by 17 times. They are “essential” for the proper functioning of all ecosystems, the researchers say, as food for other creatures, pollinators and recyclers of nutrients.
Insect population collapses have recently been reported in Germany and Puerto Rico, but the review strongly indicates the crisis is global. The researchers set out their conclusions in unusually forceful terms for a peer-reviewed scientific paper: “The [insect] trends confirm that the sixth major extinction event is profoundly impacting [on] life forms on our planet.

A Future Worth Working For
Now this is future scene with which I can agree and work towards!
The Connection Between Blood Pressure and Celiac Disease
Can blood pressure medicine cause celiac disease? That is the question that researchers at Mayo Clinic have been asking and exploring…And the simple answer answer is yes. In this Gluten Free Society Update, I break down the research linking blood pressure medications to inflammation of the GI tract that mimics celiac disease. You will want to watch this video if your doctor has prescribed an Angiotensin II receptor blocker like telmisartan or olmesartan to you for the treatment of high blood pressure. Especially if you have started to develop diarrhea, weight loss, muscle loss, or dehydration.
Live In Truth and Survive Or Live Lies and Perish
Truth, correctness and being right leads to survival and lies or wrongness lead to death. If you say to yourself that there are no cars on a busy road and you step out believing the lie you have told yourself then the most likely short term result is a funeral – yours. If you correctly observe cars on the road, their speed, the breaks in the traffic and your walking speed, you are far more likely to survive to the other side of the road.
Obviously road traffic is an extreme example and most other facets of life are not immedately obvious as totheir life or death choices. They nevertheless do impact. I sometimes pass a homeless person and wonder what were the key decisions they made that led to their being out on the street, surviving at a much lower quality than you or I.
This is one reason I share what I do. I wish you to survive, to your full potential.
A New Paradigm Required
We need to change this paradigm! Labor and Liberal created the mess. They’re not going to fix it. The Greens want most of us dead. Time we elected some independent candidates who have our best interests at heart!
