IoT stands for Internet of Things and it can be a very broad topic, indeed. This category used to be called “Blogs and Blogging,” but now encompasses any thing relative to the Internet, including social media, so-called “smart” devices and maybe even Pokemon Go.
I really want to attend the 2009 Rethinking AIDS conference, to be held in Oakland this fall, but am not sure I’ll be able to afford it since Michael has just been laid off from his job. Asking for money is not a new experience for me. Getting it, however is another story. My…
I just posted a new video on youtube, discussing the LOTTI study I blogged about yesterday. Video is a new medium for me and I had such a positive response from my first video that I hope it helps get this message of hope out to more people. This second video has far higher…
I’ve been negligent about blogging for several weeks. I also became disillusioned with Open Salon and deleted all my posts there, which is a shame because I had developed something of an audience. I just didn’t feel comfortable with the direction the site was headed. Their decision to place advertising on my blog that…
An interview on Open Salon Besides this blog, I am a member of and contributor to Open Salon, another unique blogging/social networking site. While many of my posts are cross-posted, both sites also host unique offerings from me. This morning’s post is an interview conducted by another OS member, cartouche. If you want to…
For some reason the blogger known as disinter has linked to my blog for a video he had found interesting entitled HIV = AIDS Fact or Fraud? (Note: that link is no longer valid. Try this one instead, or Google the video title.) This 1996 video is rather dated, but still worth viewing for…
More than ten years ago I wrote about what I was thinking and feeling immediately after I got my diagnosis of “HIV-positive”. What I wrote then shows how I was once a fervent believer in the mainstream AIDS cult. Since then I have come to a dissident perspective on my own, and was actually…
And in terms of me and the media, I guess I’m looking at the media and saying, you are not exactly in great shape, are you? I might be in better shape than you. Because of this bullshit, because they have not spoken to people. They formed this tower for themselves and really just…
There is a new website online for those questioning the mainstream AIDS hypothesis, and I’m impressed. reducetheburden.org is a veritable warehouse of research documentation from dozens, perhaps hundreds of sources ranging from Natural News to the AP, challenging the status quo about AIDS and making it a bookmark site for anyone confronting a chronic…
Throughout the procedure I watched the rainbow flags flutter on Market Street. That’s what flags do in the Castro–the heart of San Francisco’s gay community–they flutter. Especially rainbow flags. Rainbow flags flutter on San Francisco’s Market Street (photo: QueerBeacon.com) It hurt more than I expected. The dental drill-like vibration against my shin bone radiated…
WordPress provides bloggers with a tool that reports the search terms that result in a link to this blog. Needless to say, as a relatively new blogger I don’t get much traffic here. About once a week or so, however, I notice someone is finding this site by searching for something like “survive AIDS”….
This site is no longer updated, but kept online for reference. You should not see this popup notice on future visits.
While much of the information on this site is no longer current, it represents almost a decade of my life. It was a period of considerable reflection and writing was my therapy.
I have moved on from that era and am now moving into what will undoubtedly be the last chapter of my life. My love for writing and telling stories-mine, as well as those of others-goes with me. Join me, if you will, at jondbarnett.com for the adventure.
