Hang in there with your reading. Many of understand where you are.
If you equate your time spent reading with the real time line of earlier civilizations evolving.... It is similar to watching the trailer for a 6 part documentary.
This wouldn’t have been possible without those toting a gun on behalf of the puppet masters. BaCk da bLuE!
You've got a long read ahead of you.
Things don't happen fast because it's a volume of philosophy with a story plot woven in.
Don't so much think of it as reading a novel or a story but more like reading a book of philosophy and see what points you can apply to your life and what to skip.
Normally I recommend folks read The Fountainhead first before diving right in to the big epic main tome.
If you can stand more reading after you finish that one, go back and read The Fountainhead, then also try Anthem and then We the Living.
Just remember that like many isms and dogmas, there is both lots to learn from her works and dangers in going all in dogmatically on her ideas without properly understanding their weaknesses and problems in the actual real world.

"COVID-19 Vaccines Are Not Associated with Sudden Death" - FDA Response to an American's Concerns About COVID Vaccines | The Gateway Pundit | by Joe Hoft
Everyday Americans, who had no record of medical issues, are suddenly dropping dead. Many people believe these sudden deaths are due to the COVID vaccines.
www.thegatewaypundit.com
Edit:
Unbelievable, they are saying myocarditis is occurring from improper injection technique, representing failure to aspirate to make sure the injection wasn't directly into a vein. You can't make this stuff up.
Quote:
Yet this appears to be the CDC opinion on the topic:
“Aspiration before injection of vaccines or toxoids (i.e., pulling back on the syringe plunger after needle insertion but before injection) is not necessary because no large blood vessels are present at the recommended injection sites, and a process that includes aspiration might be more painful for infants...
If the mRNA vaccine is to be an IM Injection, isn’t it possible that, with poor syringe techniques, vaccine gets injected into a vessel, at least in part, with the resultant spike protein in the vascular system causing an inflammatory response that destroys the vascular endothelium eventually resulting in the Sudden Death effects we are seeing?"
FDA gaslighting y'all. Ignore the at least 300k you have seen of your friend, family, and (ex) co-workers drop dead. Its not from what you think.
Can't wait to see responses from Doctors Malone, McCullough, and Ryan.

Your post kind of hit home for me. A few months ago my neighbor flopped over in the street in front of my house, I didn't have CPR training but another guy that was a few houses down did have training. He started it, then instructed me on what to do. The EMT's were 20 minutes out (we're a little remote) we were pretty sure it was a drug overdose, meth, fentanyl but I kept pumping for 20 minutes. He didn't make it even with the Narcan stuff. My friend is a nurse and a CPR instructor talked to me about it and said that only about 2-4% of people that need CPR actually make it. Is that true? And yes I'm signing up for CPR and Stop The Bleed class.
I will finish it, so tempted to do a "cliff notes" read on it, but I think it will ruin it.
Time and realization is like post-nut clarity. Once the excitement of those profits coming in slows down and public sentiment continues to turn against them, the "oh shit" factor increases steadily.
I don't want to give too much away, but I am finding little things here and there and just laughing my butt off. The anniversary party was great with James and "Frisco". And I was yelling at it after the thing in Mexico. Then a little later the light bulb came on.
I think those little exchanges in the book are what is keeping me going. Also all the building up of the people in the book made me like/dislike them more.
Hope I am not giving too much away.
I am so in the dark as the order of the books I did not know what came first when I started. That one seemed "more popular" that is why I choose it.
Sitting here at work and I am ready to get home and read more. Why did Rearden leave her "standing at the airport". I have a feeling I am going to find out pretty quick.
Newer stats are up to a 10% survival of witnessed out of hospital arrests (before the "thing"), depending on: 1) prompt activation of EMS, 2) correct chest compressions of at least two inches with minimal interruption, and 3) prompt defibrillation for shockable rhythms. (Prior to you know - that "thing"; the most common cause of codes was pulseless ventricular tachycardia.) Edit: How good can it be in the right setting? The CCU I was in had 2/3 ROSC out of a code. That's impressive but that was a well-organized machine with everything right there.
The Adult Out-of-Hospital Chain of Survival Steps Are:
- Activation of Emergency Response System
- High-Quality CPR (emphasis on chest compressions)
- Rapid Defibrillation
- Advanced Resuscitation by healthcare providers
- Post-Cardiac Arrest Care
- Recovery
The Pediatric Out-of-Hospital Chain of Survival Steps are:
- Prevention
- Activation of Emergency Response
- High-Quality CPR (emphasis on chest compressions)
- Advanced Resuscitation by healthcare providers
- Post-Cardiac Arrest Care
- Recovery

Don't say that. Life as you know it will certainly be over. You may have to start each day searching for a reason to live, but life is only over if you give up. Where there's life, there is hope.
As a Rush fan, I first read Anthem and then Atlas Shrugged at the tender age of 13. And when your done with the book, the entire novel is broken down into three movies usually available on Youtube (warning - they change the actors with each movie).
FDA - Fauci Drug Administration
Been many years since I had my first responder class. Short version of chest compressions, recipient must be on a hard surface. You interlace your fingers with one palm over back of the other hand. Squeeze your fingers together like trying to make a fist but with one hand behind the other. This is to make as wide and ridged of a surface as possible. Lock out your elbows and thrust downwards with your upper body weight. If done correctly high probability of breaking rib bones. The rib cage is shielding to heart, so you have to get your force past that or it’s all for nothing. Also your heart is not in the center of your chest. Halfway between left nipple and center of rib cage.
For one person, yes. Compressions are more important than breaths.
Compression rate is between 100-120 per minute. 30 Compression, then 2 breaths. If you are alone, just do continuous compressions. Let the chest rebound completely.
Ive done CPR solo and in teams dozens of times when I was a cop. If you don't feel ribs breaking, you're doing it wrong. Period. Lock your elbows, use your upper body, not your arms. People usually let up once they feel ribs breaking because they're afraid of hurting someone. Congratulations, you feel better about yourself, but you've now going to kill them all dead because you're weak-minded.
I've successfully resuscitated an adult male with no long-term brain damage from lack of circulation after I broke 8 of his ribs doing solo compressions for several minutes while waiting for the heros to arrive. The treating cardiologist tracked me down to tell me that was the first he'd ever seen a CPR recipient NOT have brain damage in 20 years of practice.
Their life depends on you. Do it right. They deserve your best.
I actually got in on the crowdfunding for that 3 part series back when they first kicked it off & have the nice steelcase DVDs for it.
My main gripe is that they changed the plane crash scene completely and it totally negated the following lesson in capitalism that sprang from it.
I think the actor that played Dagny in the first movie was probably the best suited for the role out of the 3.
I didn't much care for the way the middle one acted the part, it was portrayed a lot more "tired" than the energetic person in the books.
Realistically it's not a great story to try to make movies or a trilogy out of.
It would be actually best suited for being made into a long series, either live action or animated.
Anyone can buy an AED - Philips Heartsmart. The machine reads the heart rhythm for you and determines whether rhythm is present/shockable. Major edit: EEKS: My comments an AEDs were way off. Not only was my price off, but I just spoke to the American Heart Association, because they basically negotiate "Group Buys". I was informed that AEDs after the pandemic are in such short supply there is a 12 month backlog on receiving items after purchase!
I wouldn't be surprised if the "SADS" hears do not set off (are not shockable) an AED; so are pretty much DRT (or DOS). I don't know the circumstances from Damar Hamlin - but my guess is that reason for 10 minutes of CPR is that he initially had no electrical activity - EPI was likely given via ET tube which alone with compressions induced a shockable rhythm to occur. Super rare but that's why its in the protocol for ACLS.

The American Heart Association is kind of weird on this (anybody more current please feel free to chip in). They suggest "untrained" people should just focus on compressions (mostly because breaths done incorrectly without proper jaw tilt are worthless and hence a waste of compression time), and "trained" people should give rescue breaths and compressions. I think it boils down to making sure you have an open airway (see the chest rise with rescues breaths) and how long the person is down for. Most out of hospital arrests have one person "first appearing at the scene", and then others approach (hopefully the first person alerts others, orders another to call 911), when multiple people appear then breaths can be done much easier. To me, it doesn't make sense to not give rescue breaths providing you can see chest rise with breaths, which can be difficult if alone. The recommendations for untrained paper to just do compressions are based on statistical outcomes.

Ha, I think my order was Anthem, We the Living, Atlas Shrugged, Fountain Head. All good books; but from a philosophical point, I think Anthem and Atlas Shrugged are the ones where her Anti-Commie is best on display.
I would like to think that, but we have been one for a very long time. Married her when she was 18 and I was 21, and no she was not knocked up. We fought very hard against a great many things. Including my family trying to have my marriage annulled behind my back. Oh yes we fought long and hard together. It would be like trying to live with half a heart.
And that does not take into account if all this is going on people are generally pretty stressed out. It is hard to "calm down" think and do what you need to do. Even going to class does not make you ready for "real life".
Life take a lot of twist and turns... Just sent out the link to the obit for my first ex...... Brings back a lot of memories and "what if's"...
Life, no guaranties.
