We are looking for an off grid isolated small home in a rustic isolated setting, raw and austere, beaten up by time, ideally with trees and woods nearby, or a mature garden, to shoot our next film about a couple resisting the Smart City by living off grid, a small symbol of resistance. It can be an old stone cottage or a weathered wooden cabin.
Possible locations are: Cornwall, Yorkshire, Wales.
Needs to be isolated and quiet.
If you know anything and have any links and photos, kindly DM me: @robinmonotti

Anthony Webber has prepared this petition:
"No direct or indirect military action on behalf of Ukraine, without a Referendum"
'The government has spent billions prolonging the Ukraine conflict, which is of no strategic or economic interest to the UK. This policy has adversely affected the cost of energy and of living. There should be a pause in the policy until there is a national debate and Referendum on the issue.
UK governments have been stoking up conflict in Ukraine for many years, without any approval from the British public, who are a peace loving nation. The UK should have kept out of the conflict in 2022, but instead discouraged peace efforts. There has been mass slaughter since then on both sides. The UK has officially given Ukraine ยฃ25bn and now the government is risking British security by involvement in attacks on Russia. There has been a consequent major rise in energy and cost of living costs.'

The car producer's plant in Germany's Lower Saxony region is set to partner with Israeli defense company Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and investment Aurelius Capital to manufacture components.
As part of the partnership that starts in 2027, the site will manufacture:
This is not the Zionist regime's first venture into Germany, as Israeli defense companies Dynamit Nobel Defence, EuroSpike, and EuroTrophy GmbH have been active in Germany for over twenty years.
The Rafael-Volkswagen deal comes as the carmaker struggles to keep up with competition:
But despite the crisis, Volkswagen somehow still finds the funds to appease Israelโฆ

"Medicine is art, and should not be considered a "science" at all. Real doctors listen to the patient and evaluate the symptoms - what the person says, how they look, how it relates to thousands of other people they have observed over time. ALL PEOPLE ARE UNIQUE and different from each other. There is no one illness that's the same across all people, even the simplest kind of ailment. Every illness is a personal experience, and good doctors (of which there are practically zero left) understand this and work from this premise. That's why the only thing that should be really trusted is presentation of the illness (symptoms), and not some lab baloney spewed out from a computer model, based on bad science and fraud. And also, biology is not chemical. All current science models assume it is, but that's simply not true. Chemical models are inapplicable to biology. All chemicals in vitro are dead matter. All biology in vivo is alive matter. These two things are entirely incompatible scientifically."

WHY DO PEOPLE FALL ILL AFTER FLYING ON PLANES?
Modern aircraft draw outside air through the engine's compressor section to pressurize and condition the cabin. While this air is not from the combustion chamber, synthetic engine oils and hydraulic fluids can leak past worn or failed seals into the compressor stream. This heated, contaminated airโcontaining organophosphates and other toxic vaporsโis then mixed with recirculated cabin air and distributed throughout the aircraft.
Key Articles and Sources
"Airline cover-up: Toxic oil from jet engines poisoning passengers" (Natural Health 365): Details how the shift to bleed air systems in 1963 introduced synthetic oils containing organophosphates (used in pesticides and nerve gas) into the cabin air supply.
"Toxic Cabin Air? New Information Reveals the Potentially Neurotoxic Effects..." (Legal Examiner): Discusses how internal Boeing documents from the 1950s recognized air contamination issues and how fume events can cause immediate headaches, dizziness, and potential long-term neurotoxic effects.
"'Cancer causing aircraft'" (The Ecologist, 2024): Reports on allegations that jet-powered aircraft routinely contaminate cabin air with heated engine oil and hydraulic fluid fumes, noting that HEPA filters remove particles but not gases or vapors.
"Aerotoxic syndrome" (Wikipedia): Explains that while HEPA filters clean recirculated air, they do not filter the "bleed air" from engines, which can carry contaminants from auxiliary power units (APU) or engine seals into the environmental control system.
Industry Response and Exceptions
HEPA Filters: These hospital-grade filters capture 99.97% of particles (bacteria, viruses) from recirculated air but do not remove toxic gases from the fresh bleed air supply.
Boeing 787 Dreamliner: This aircraft is frequently cited as an exception, using an "electric bleed" system that eliminates the use of engine bleed air, thereby removing the risk of oil contamination from the engine compressors.
Official Stance: Manufacturers like Boeing and regulatory bodies like the FAA maintain that cabin air quality is safe, citing studies that compare airline air to other indoor environments, though critics argue these studies do not adequately account for low-level, chronic exposure to chemical vapors.

HOW DOES VIRAL PNEUMONIA INFECT LUNGS?
1. Viral infection spreads through lung cells, this can be preceded and caused by other infected body parts such as the throat, then descends down the respiratory system reaching the lungs.
2. The immune system then kills the infected cells
3. Bacteria then grows on the dead cells in the lungs killed by the immune system.
4. Bacteria then spreads also to healthy cells in lungs.
5. The immune system now tries to kill these cells too.
6. The virus now can also spread in this bacteria.
7. Pneumonia is now primarily bacterial, yet also a residue of viral particles.
8. This is why antibiotics "work" for viral pneumonia: they target the bacterial side of the co-infection, reducing the pressure on the immune system to deal with two infections at once.
9. The body now heals naturally, and clears the dead and previously infected cells.
10. The pneumonia started as a viral infection, the antibiotic stopped the bacterial progression of the infection.

WHAT IS THE ORIGIN OF THE WORD "INFLUENZA"?
Infuenza comes from the Latin phrase 'ab occulta coeli influentia' which translates to "from the hidden influence of the sky" or "from the hidden influence of heaven."
In a historical and medical context, this phrase was used in the late medieval and early modern periods to describe the hidden or unseen causes of epidemics, particularly influenza. The term influencia (influence) originally referred to astrological or celestial influences believed to affect earthly events, which later evolved into the modern medical term for respiratory infections.

Henri Bergson was a critic of scientism who argued that the scientific method is fundamentally limited when applied to life and consciousness. He believed that science, relying on intellectual analysis, reduces reality to static, spatialized concepts to facilitate practical control, thereby failing to capture duration (durรฉe) and the fluid, creative nature of existence.
Instead, Bergson proposed philosophical intuition as the necessary complementary method to science. He viewed science and philosophy as two distinct, irreducible ways of knowing: science deals with inert matter and relative knowledge, while philosophy seeks absolute knowledge of real becoming through intuition. Thus, his work is best characterized as a philosophy of life or process philosophy that seeks to balance scientific rigor with metaphysical insight.
รlan vital (French for "vital impulse" or "life momentum") is a central philosophical concept introduced by Henri Bergson in his 1907 book Creative Evolution. It is defined as an original, creative force or impulse that drives the ongoing process of biological evolution and distinguishes living organisms from inert matter.
It acts as a dynamic, spontaneous tendency that propels life forward through perpetual creation and diversification, rejecting mechanistic or predetermined views of evolution.
Immanent Impulsion: It is described as a continuous flow of consciousness or energy that penetrates and organizes matter, starting from a common source and bifurcating into divergent lines (such as vegetative, instinctive, and intellectual paths).
Opposition to Mechanism: Bergson used the concept to argue that life cannot be reduced to simple physico-chemical processes or fixed laws, emphasizing instead life's irreducible creativity and unpredictability.
Human Cognition: He related the concept to human experience, portraying instinct as an intuitive alignment with this vital flow and intelligence as a tool for navigating inert matter.

People who try and apply the scientific method to biology & medicine are about 120 years behind in their understanding of the philosophy of biology.
Life is irreducible: Living systems cannot be fully explained by physics and chemistry alone, as they possess an internal momentum toward freedom and creation.
Evolution is inventive: Rather than adapting solely through environmental selection, life actively shapes its own development, branching into divergent paths like instinct (insects) and intelligence (humans).
Time is qualitative: Evolution occurs within duration, a continuous flow where the past accumulates to inform an open, undetermined future.

It was, and still is, a strategic mistake for half the medical freedom movement to stake its position on a religious belief in the scientific method and to want to apply it to living things like the human body.

In terms of denial, I personally go a lot further than virus deniers: I refuse to believe in virology as an exact science, and I also refuse to believe that the scientific method can really help us understand living organisms, which by their nature are instead all different, extremely complex and highly unpredictable.
Virus deniers only deny half way, they deny virology but they do not deny that the scientific method can apply to life in any useful way. I do. I go much further than them.
I am a hardcore scientific method denier when it comes to life and living organisms. They don't get this.

Reducing living organisms to separate constituent elements is precisely the wrong turn we took in the Enlightenment when it comes to medical practice.
I do not seek any concrete isolation of any part from the whole, including viruses.
There are categories of infections which present themselves with clinical symptoms we ascribe to viral infections.
Ultimately it does not really matter what we ascribe them to, but that we recognise the patterns, to then take informed treatment measures for ourselves only, which may vary from person to person.
Doing nothing, or doing less, worrying less about it all being often the best course of treatment.
We will heal regardless of the names we use for categories of clinical symptoms.

Why the Scientific Method Generally Does Not Work:
Confirmation bias:
The tendency to unconsciously seek, favour, or interpret data that supports your hypothesis while ignoring or dismissing contradictory evidence. Research shows this often operates implicitly, shaping choices about comparators and outcomes without the researcher realising it.
P-hacking (data dredging or data snooping):
The practice of running many statistical tests or analyses on the same data and reporting only the ones that come back "significant." Even with no real effect, enough repeated tests will eventually produce a false positive by chance. A related practice, HARKing (Hypothesizing After Results are Known), involves formulating the hypothesis after seeing the data, then presenting it as if it were pre-registered.
Publication bias (or the "file drawer problem"):
Studies with positive or significant results are far more likely to be published than null or negative ones, skewing the literature and making effects look larger than they really are.
Sampling and measurement bias:
Flawed or unrepresentative samples, uncalibrated instruments, inconsistent data collection procedures, and failure to account for confounding variables can all invalidate results even when the overall process looks correct.
Neglecting controls and replication:
A single experiment without proper control groups, or one that cannot be independently reproduced, provides weak evidence. The replication crisis in psychology and other fields has highlighted how many published findings fail to reproduce.
Conceptual errors:
Confusing a hypothesis with a theory (a theory is a well-supported, broad explanation; a hypothesis is a specific, testable prediction), or treating findings as fixed truths rather than the best current explanation subject to revision.
Mistaking correlation for causation:
Observing that two variables move together and concluding one causes the other, without ruling out alternative explanations.
In short, the method is only as good as the discipline applied at each stage, and most of these pitfalls stem from human cognitive tendencies, structural incentives (e.g., pressure to publish positive results), or poor experimental design, including deliberate fraud.

Why the Scientific Method Fails with Living Organisms:
Indvidual Variation:
Individual variation is fundamental, not noise. Unlike a chemical reaction in a flask, every organism is genetically, epigenetically, and environmentally unique. Group averages from a clinical trial may apply to no single individual. The statistical assumption of ergodicity โ that the group average equals the individual's own average over time โ rarely holds in biology, yet it underpins most standard analysis.
Complexity and non-linearity:
Living systems are riddled with feedback loops, redundancy, and parallel pathways. It is impossible to write down or measure all the relevant variables, and small changes can produce large, unpredictable effects. This makes controlled experiments far harder to design and interpret than in physics or chemistry.
Placebo and Nocebo Effects:
The placebo effect and self-healing. In healing specifically, the act of treatment โ expectation, context, the therapeutic relationship, even the ritual โ triggers real neurobiological responses. This means you can never fully isolate the "active ingredient" of an intervention from the healing response the intervention itself provokes. Open-label placebo studies show improvement even when patients know they're receiving an inert pill, as long as they're told it works.
The Immune System
Many conditions (cold sores, migraines, back pain, viral infections) resolve on their own. Without a properly designed control, it's nearly impossible to tell whether a treatment helped or the body simply healed itself. You can never know, for a given patient, how long recovery would have taken without the treatment.
Reductionism: isolating the parts from the whole:
Modern biology and medicine tend to study isolated molecules, cells, or pathways. But a living organism is an organised whole with emergent properties that don't reduce to their parts. A drug that works beautifully in a cell culture can fail โ or cause harm โ in a whole organism because of interactions the reductionist model never captured.
Interspecies Differences:
Model organisms don't transfer cleanly. Findings in mice, zebrafish, or cell lines often fail to replicate in humans. Inbred lab strains lack the genetic diversity of real populations, and interspecies differences in physiology, immune response, and metabolism limit extrapolation. The thalidomide tragedy โ safe in animal tests, catastrophic in human pregnancy โ is the canonical example.
Ethical Constraints on Human Testing:
Ethical constraints are far tighter on humans. You can't randomise a patient to a treatment you suspect is harmful, can't repeat an experiment on the same person, can't expose a developing embryo to a new compound, and can't withhold a known-effective therapy from a control group. These constraints mean many important questions in medicine simply cannot be answered by the idealised experimental method.
Time and irreversibility:
A living organism is a time-bound, perishable system. You can't "reset" a patient to a baseline state, the trajectory of illness and recovery is unique to each person, and long-term effects may only become apparent years later.
Subjective outcomes:
Pain, fatigue, mood, and quality of life โ often the things a patient actually cares about โ are inherently subjective and hard to measure objectively, making them vulnerable to both placebo and reporting bias.
In short, the scientific method was developed for a world of repeatable, controlled, measurable phenomena. Living organisms violate nearly every one of those assumptions simultaneously, which is why medicine remains the most error-prone and replication-fragile of the sciences.
The scientific method is simply not widely applicable in a reliable or helpful way as a method to understand the healing processes of living organisms.

Living systems are riddled with feedback loops, redundancy, and parallel pathways. It is impossible to write down or measure all the relevant variables, and small changes can produce large, unpredictable effects. This makes controlled experiments far harder to design and interpret than in physics or chemistry.
Placebo and Nocebo Effects:
The placebo effect and self-healing. In healing specifically, the act of treatment โ expectation, context, the therapeutic relationship, even the ritual โ triggers real neurobiological responses. This means you can never fully isolate the "active ingredient" of an intervention from the healing response the intervention itself provokes. Open-label placebo studies show improvement even when patients know they're receiving an inert pill, as long as they're told it works.
The Immune System
Many conditions (cold sores, migraines, back pain, viral infections) resolve on their own. Without a properly designed control, it's nearly impossible to tell whether a treatment helped or the body simply healed itself. You can never know, for a given patient, how long recovery would have taken without the treatment.
Reductionism: isolating the parts from the whole:
Modern biology and medicine tend to study isolated molecules, cells, or pathways. But a living organism is an organised whole with emergent properties that don't reduce to their parts. A drug that works beautifully in a cell culture can fail โ or cause harm โ in a whole organism because of interactions the reductionist model never captured.
Interspecies Differences:
Model organisms don't transfer cleanly. Findings in mice, zebrafish, or cell lines often fail to replicate in humans. Inbred lab strains lack the genetic diversity of real populations, and interspecies differences in physiology, immune response, and metabolism limit extrapolation. The thalidomide tragedy โ safe in animal tests, catastrophic in human pregnancy โ is the canonical example.
Ethical Constraints on Human Testing:
Ethical constraints are far tighter on humans. You can't randomise a patient to a treatment you suspect is harmful, can't repeat an experiment on the same person, can't expose a developing embryo to a new compound, and can't withhold a known-effective therapy from a control group. These constraints mean many important questions in medicine simply cannot be answered by the idealised experimental method.
Time and irreversibility:
A living organism is a time-bound, perishable system. You can't "reset" a patient to a baseline state, the trajectory of illness and recovery is unique to each person, and long-term effects may only become apparent years later.
Subjective outcomes:
Pain, fatigue, mood, and quality of life โ often the things a patient actually cares about โ are inherently subjective and hard to measure objectively, making them vulnerable to both placebo and reporting bias.
In short, the scientific method was developed for a world of repeatable, controlled, measurable phenomena. Living organisms violate nearly every one of those assumptions simultaneously, which is why medicine remains the most error-prone and replication-fragile of the sciences.
The scientific method is simply not widely applicable in a reliable or helpful way as a method to understand the healing processes of living organisms.
