1/ Maybe it's a strange day to share a "death positive" #documentary, but believe me, it will awaken in you a powerful reason for giving thanks. Co-produced by my dear friend Barry Koch and his business partner Jason Zamer, it's called "A Butterfly Has Been Released" (TGBeyond).
Poster for "A Butterfly Has Been Released", a death-positive film by Jason Zamer and Barry Koch (TGBeyond). Hospice nurse Allyson invites her family, friends & hospice coworkers into her dying experience.

"Runctitiononal features"? "Medical fymblal"? "1 Tol Line storee"? This gets worse the longer you look at it. But it's got to be good, because it was published in Nature Scientific Reports last week: www.nature.com/articles/s41... h/t @asa.tsbalans.se

It’s my birthday! A really wonderful gift would be if you could listen, like and share my new podcast series, Uprising: The Civil Wars (and, if you have enjoyed it, give it 5 ⭐️)

In the words of Henrietta Maria, Merci.

Every book you by from #Amazon has two effects:

1. Makes B*zos, the richest man in the world, richer
2. Takes support away for independent bookstores

"Jeff B*zos, Amazon founder and space investor, is worth $239 billion as of July 2025 (Forbes)."

This wax model of a human head from the 19th century shows the internal structure of the brain, complete with its protective covering, the meninges, the eye, cheek, neck and jaw. Wax models were used for teaching anatomy to medical students or as part of popular anatomy shows.
