This is a systematic review published in 2021.

It's #BlerdTime. Reading a summary of David Hawkins's Maps of Consciousness. There's a lot I didn't know about thinking and aliveness that's examined here. It's all plausible, so far.

Since I have a bunch of new followers and need to wind down, running another #BlerdTime session.

Tonight, we're gonna read about #SickleCell. So far, I'm the only person in this section of the #fediverse that has tooted about #SickleCellAnemia. That has to change.

Let's read an abstract.
