Danny Roddy's twitter/X account has "disappeared"

I mean, that was kind of a soy tweet by Roddy. Who cares if people want to cover their fridge light with red tape? Blue light does affect you. Why do you think every smart phone now has a warm light filter for night time? Sol Brah is odd sometimes but I personally like him and think a lot of his ideas are correct.

If he has a problem with every tweet not maximizing peoples health in the way he thinks it should, he could have made a tweet on how to do it instead of subtweeting someone like a bitch.

I thought it was odd when he randomly stopped doing the podcast with Mike and Jay

Peatful

I used to have two very legitimate issues with Danny

After reading some of the data here, I respect him more for having boundaries
And having a conscious

He was defending Ray’s widow
Nor has he sold his soul à la Mercola and Mike

I’m not disagreeing that Danny is not a competent clinician.
However, he is a researcher and he’s done a lot for this community.

Gonna go search for the podcast where Ray says he can talk with cats….

Yea he is or has been a bit doomy (etc), fair. Swimming is hard.

@sunsunsun said in Danny Roddy's twitter/X account has "disappeared":

yo i think what i did was weong and cringe

Maybe it is that.

He's under no obligation to tell you or I really. Hope it is. You can just do things, you can just log off. He lives in a beautiful place surrounded by animals.

Also like 80% (probably) of my wake is wrong and cringe. Only in a different way.

From Danny's telegram today:

"I'm an advocate for sick people, who I think would be best served by the information that Ray Peat and others provided. If I can satirize or mock performative health practices driven by hype or monetization, to help orient a sick person in a better direction, I will do so without hesitation. If you don't understand where I'm coming from, then maybe you've never been that sick, or haven't interacted with allopathy or alternative medicine enough to experience how impotent, dangerous, and demeaning the strategies typically employed are."

@Peatful totally agree!

@dapose I know what you mean, I have found Danny's approach and communication a little "vague" at times, though I give the benefit of the doubt and assume he's trying to "guide" as opposed to dictating - just my thoughts and assumption. It's similar to how some of Ray's interviews were somewhat vague too in terms of advice, however I later understood this to be him guiding that specific question/person in that particular situation.

Hope he rejoins twitter to crack more jokes.

@Ismail wow man thanks for sharing that quote. Yeah, I wasted like 2 years of following Peaty stuff (so far as exchanging emails) and not availing his foundational advice first, stuff like topical application of lidocaine, antibiotics, and actual synthetic thyroid (T3) instead of my monomanic naturalist fallacy chasing things like herbs and desicated thyroid (they had minimal impact).

I don't think people understand how reductionist and monomanic (obsessive interest on a single thing) alt-health gets. For instance, blocking a blue led light on a fridge may be a nice quality of life thing if that fridge is in your bedroom at night, but holy crap, it's not doing anything to save your life like getting digestion under control is.

"People wonder why I don't make much content anymore, but they might not know that I'm a chicken farmer."

He could be like the owen benjamin of peating. Farming, conspiracy and bass guitar.
