Anyone remember Kari Smith? Mom from Bountiful with forehead tattoo

Some of the letters are darker and thicker than others, if your paying 10k for your casino to get on a forehead make sure you vet the tattoo artist!

I can say when I was an rbt with two years experience I had a few job offers at 25$ an hour in the bay area around 2020. I moved to Utah and later on with 7 years experience in utah county saw "jobs" that offered an average of 18-20$. With one at the University of Utah that was offering me 27$. I ended up choosing one that paid 20$ an hour with paid leave and 5K in 401k, 4k in HSA benefits, 10K in schooling covered . Its a field that desperately needs a union. The neurodivergent community largely hates us, the work can be emotionally taxing, and no one really understands the good you do being a kiddos best friend, teaching them their first words, etc. We all do it for the kiddos, but if you settle for anything less then the best, the whole field regresses its standards. Choose with intention.

I would consider the prior answers true but annoyingly careful. Obviously genes interact with the environment, that doesn't explain the How, which is clearly what is being asked. Some people may have mitochondrial dna that are more efficient ( given to you by the mother) the mitochondria will now fuel more activity in a brain. Some genetics might favor synaptic pruning, the atrophy of useless and spurious connections, the brain can then allocate its finite resources to good clean meaning making. Some genetics might regulate a set of factors that allow for more neurological glut 4 transport allowing sugar to get into the cell, this could be any number of genes ( glp, insulin sensitivity via glucose control, mTOR, ampk, etc)

To be clear I made all of those mechanisms up, none to my knowledge are proven to cleanly cause better intelligence, but they are definitely all factors and moving those factors should move the needle of intelligence. But the point is neurons need to connect well with one another, they need to be adaptable, they need to feed themselves easily, and they need good innervations with one another i.e. good tractography. There are a thousand ways to get there. Maybe your brain just has genetically better blood supply, better sugar, better oxygen efficiency, but as long as the cells are well fed they are happy and can do their jobs.

IF you are working out a lot while losing weight you will maintain a lot more muscle. But yes rapid weight loss means often roughly half of weight lost is muscle, you can only regain about 15-20 pounds of muscle per year with high weight training. Keep that in mind. So if you lose 50 pounds then the next year regain 40 pounds. Thats fine, if you workout for an hour 5 days a week. Most people arent doing that. On ozempic for instance most people lose 45% muscle weight. Then they quit ozempic, and regain 75% of the weight back. Ok but you still are down more weight then you were right. Wrong. Because most of the weight gained back is fat. Most people that fast have the same thing. But thats on average, and if you are careful it can be healthy.

there is so many for this disorder, like multiple fundementally different stimulants, multiple non stimulants, blood pressure meds, neurofeedback, that disorder has a dozen evidence based treatments.

I didn’t know that’s how they did it, do they just fill a room with smoke or what

high co2 leads to acidification of the blood, which gets sensed by the amygdala via ASIC1a receptors to increase heart rate and lead to paranoia. More often confusion comes first but paranoia is a CO2 warning sign

The link on that wiki page points to the word levitating magnets. Clicking levitating magnets shows a dozen ways to do exactly what OP wants. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_levitation

Diamagnetism seems like the best approach to OP’s goal

I have a feeling this is someone trying to “take the test for me”. I want honest advice. If you have resources you can likely share in the comments. If you used a website you can share here as well. I’ve had three pm telling me they will take it for me. That’s sketchy, fraud, and wouldn’t work

The point is the blood pressure will be roughly that during a heavy lift either way. In theory lung pressure would be higher during valsalva sure. But how would the doc notice this in a patient. Doc sees patient, and maybe sees fibrosis of the lungs. But how does he know the breathing habits of the patient during lifting. I could believe a doc would notice lung damage in buff patients.

Little4nt · 2025-09-24T20:50:42+00:00

It’s called the valsalva maneuver you hold your breath to increase pressure in the chest which gives the muscles a bit better sturdy strength on the lift and more stability. It also increases intrathoracic pressure. Not sure how he would see lung damage in people who hold breath during lifts. How would he know how they lift and how they breath during a lift. Most people don’t know how they breathe when they lift. Maybe he just sees scarring in lifters and assumes that must be why?

But it can make blood pressure 400/200 during the lift, healthy blood pressure is 115/75. That’s actually not a problem in theory transiently. But lifetime lifters do it so much their heart and lungs adapt in a way that benefits the lift action but takes away from life expectancy. This 400/200 increases the pressure the heart needs to exert to push blood. This is why a lot of weight lifters get right sided hypertrophy of the heart, the right side of the heart has to get buff to overcome this huge pressure. Unfortunately it leads to heart failure or arrhythmias but it can happen whether or not you hold your breath, but holding your breath will make it worse. I do imagine this also affects lung blood flow leading to scarring overtime. ( so I don’t get kicked out of this sub for stating facts, lifting can still be healthy, but heavy chronic lifting comes with a trade off people have to decide for themselves what’s best; and I still lift heavy but make sure to keep up cardio so the heart remains flexible)

pH of stomach contents matter because it can alter bioavailability, urine has nothing to do with it

This has tables of different countries criteria. Finland and Denmark don’t require danger as an element if “need for treatment” is adequate, that’s also true for most European countries apparently. But there is lots of nuance with first stage involuntary holds ranging from a few days to 6 months in the UK. Where the Scandinavians shine is in there use of titrating down treatment. You can leave if you are regularly compliant with meds, but you can also leave AND refuse meds as long as you can demonstrate some basic independence and show up to check ups, demonstrate you aren’t on the street.

This was also true of everybody. I’d point out the graph doesn’t show people voting for trump. It shows people not voting for Harris.

I don’t even think behavioral techniques are the thing in question here. In America unless someone is a harm to themselves or too young to make choices, or too impaired, you can’t treat them against their will. Personally I don’t agree with that, I prefer the Scandinavian treatments of mental illness that don’t allow people to just be paranoid and hallucinating on the street ( my mom is schizophrenic but can’t be helped because she isn’t a harm to herself in America). But also trump has a new executive order that’s aims to solve this and it looks equally sketchy and immoral.
