Given how every *single* GOP position is doublethink, I propose that all their positions be given in the form of both competing beliefs.
"Only true patriots are willing to commit treason and attempt to secede. You're the one's committing treason and seceding, not us."
This is now turning into a mainstream GOP platform.
Given how every *single* GOP position is doublethink, I propose that all their positions be given in the form of both competing beliefs.
"He said X. He also denied X."
"He said his opponent was doing Y. He also stated his willingness to do Y."
Do not help them give the illusion of having a coherent ideology or position.
Find another, which you will, who claims that it's the federal government that's actually seceding from him.

An interesting thing about carp is that they can go into anoxic hibernation and switch to an anaerobic metabolism based on converting glycogen to ethanol.
The waste ethanol is diffused out the gills

Carp can switch over to an anaerobic metabolism and quietly exhale booze until the situation gets better.
They basically evolved the same metabolic pathway as yeast, independently.
In theory, if you spent a few thousand years breeding carp for it, you could use them to make booze.
They'd be enormous, almost entirely glycogen deposits with a fish added as an afterthought.
The really interesting thing about anaerobic carp, is that they can go 4-5 months without oxygen by relying on liver glycogen.
You, a human, have only about 100 grams of glycogen in your liver, about 400 more grams in your skeletal muscles. Call it 500 grams total.
In humans, glycogen is also burned for energy. This is where the marathon runner's bonk comes from: you only have about 2,000 calories worth, and running a marathon burns those 2,000 calories.

Look at some historical examples of mass psychogenic illnesses: dancing plagues, laughing plagues, meowing nuns,
Here's a video on them:
They are interesting, but what is more interesting to me is Culture Bound Syndrome. https://t.co/hMKaApUMZn
Basically: mass psychogenic illness, and presentation of various mental illnesses, do not occur in a vacuum. Cultures shape them.
For instance, Koro.
There have been several mass outbreaks of men completely convinced their penises are shrinking, anchoring them with string at night so they don't get sucked back inside.
Almost all in Southeast
Here's a description of one outbreak in Hainan in 1984:
