Both get in the same place in a cross over. Both can infect the other and spread.

Which of them take over at the end?

How different will BB be if Walt and Jeese had to deal with Lalo instead of Tuco? Assume Saul was still in Lalo's good books. Everything else remains the same.

Seems a lot of support more towards Rhaenyra,
going by various comments in other forums. Checking the sentiment.

Glad that LOTR was made as a Trilogy rather than as a single movie, after watching The Odyssey. Too many rushed scenes, it looked just like the director wanted to cramp everything about The Odyssey in 3 hours runtime. Wish it was split into 2 parts atleast, so there is enough context given to each mythological scene (viewers with no idea about the original story would likely be scratching their heads as to whats going on).

ps: i used ai to convert to readable format from my rough notes.

I’m a healthy male in my forties and have decided to run a structured 3-month experiment using what I believe is one of the most comprehensive commercially available microbiome stacks currently available.

This is not medical advice, and I’m not trying to treat any disease. This is simply a personal experiment to see whether a broad microbiome approach can measurably improve metabolic health, gut health, oral health and overall well-being.

Baseline
Healthy male in my forties
Weight: 68.5 kg (151 lb)
Fasting glucose: 97 mg/dL
Hemoglobin A1c: 5.6%
Fasting insulin: 10 µIU/mL

One interesting observation is that my fasting insulin has already improved from 15 µIU/mL to 10 µIU/mL over the past six months while taking my original microbiome stack consisting of Pendulum Glucose Control, Pendulum Gut Fuel, Pendulum Polyphenol Booster and EVOO. Ha1c didn't change, could be due to my sporadic sweet tooth.

I’ll repeat my blood work/test after approximately three months and will post the complete results—including both objective biomarkers and subjective observations—during the last week of September.

I’d also appreciate feedback from this community. If there are any important commercially available probiotics, next-generation organisms, prebiotics or postbiotics that you think I’m still missing, I’d genuinely like to know.
