Involuntary Vomit
Wouldn’t it be great and evolutionary if one were to involuntarily vomit after ingesting (hearing, and or seeing) toxic (useless for the soul’s advancement) information.
Same goes, after one’s bullshit meter stays pegged at max.
“You’ll be listening to some guy, saying, well, he’s fairly intelligent.
Ah, he’s full of shit.”

Like drinking excessive or dangerous amounts of alcohol, your body (in order to protect itself) expunges the overwhelming toxins. Usually in the form and / or color of food sitting underneath it.
For example, listening to corporate/government/propaganda media randomly is like a single glass of wine or a cold beer. You stop by, listen, and move on. No harm, no foul. Its lasting effects / affects are usually gone within an hour.
But when you listen over and over, imbibing excessively on the same drinks, (fear, hate, division) delivered by different bartenders (show hosts, aka talking heads) at the same bar (networks) you involuntarily vomit. With nary a chance to make it to a porcelain throne.
Since it is your brain, overwhelmed by the deceptions and distractions, it produces a gray bile, different from “regular” puke, so you would at least know when to stop. Leave the bad bar. (Turn off the TV or radio)
Drink some coffee (listen to music / read a book) to let your brain and imagination recuperate. Question why it was necessary to even seek out such toxicity. …
Perhaps, recognize that the perceived inadequacies of self are the cause of both alcohol consumption and deceptive distractions. Realize that you are enough without substances or sour sentences strung together to strangulate your sense of self.
“gray bile”!! – such a perfect description! Genius.
How is it possible that we have any capacity to feed ourselves non-nutritious mental food (same for physical food)? It’s anti-evolutionary. (eventually, I suppose).
Thank you for helping us recognize the truth of all our being. Being itself is enough!

I saw a post questioning,
“If grocery stores have “health” food sections, what are they selling in the rest of the store?
Maybe that is why there are no televisions in libraries.
