I’m hearing there has been an increase in the area of people experiencing Alpha-Gal and I’m the Columbia and surrounding areas, really wondering if this is true…

If anyone is experiencing this, could you share what’s happening and if you’re really experiencing immediate impact to inability to eat meat and/or other animal products and other symptoms you may be experiencing?

I thought this wasn’t really happening out here but it may be true and want to be vigilant.

Thank you for considering sharing…

Was watching David Quaid on Edward Strums video where he said “his experience” which was not extensively researched, showed that any of his websites hosted on Cloudflare were being blocked from being crawled by the LLM’s.

I don’t experience this to be exactly true, but I’m wondering if anybody has tested this that may be hosting their DNS through Cloudflare?

He said this issue happened regardless of clicking the option to allow AI crawlers on the site inside CloudFlare.

If anyone is looking to do volunteer work, I wanted to share my experience here.

I was looking to do some Volunteer work in Columbia, I called many places, emailed them too. Not many reached out at all, sad to say. But I got a next-day call back from the Food Bank, did a one hour same-day easy training session, and I was able to schedule working the next day.

They allow Volunteers to work either the Food Bank Grocery Store, or the Warehouse. I've even made it a regular thing to donate funds there too.

They have a very impressive set up, you can sign up for the hours you want online, a log-in and log-out process similar as if you were an employee, and they have a really friendly staff. In the Warehouse they even have an impressive playlist of music.

Work is scheduled in 2 to 2 ½ hour blocks, and you can sign up for as much as you want.

They also bring in a lot of students from Mizzou and other Universities, I even notice some companies have their staff do Volunteer hours. It's not uncommon in one of your shifts to work with 40-60 Volunteers and that is super impressive.

They keep everything clean, they are very inclusive, everyone is incredibly nice. I've worked with people trying to complete community service hours, those looking to improve their resume or school transcripts, and retiree's just looking to talk, connect, and feel valued.

So if you have time on your hands, want to get out and about, want to meet some new people, this is a great way to do it that is not centered around going out to bars. You get to do some good, work around great people of all ages, and see a community helping each other.

I am proud of the hours and time I get to donate there and appreciate them making it easy for me to get started!
