>>Has anyone else noticed how much the “whistleblower” whomever he is looks like Edward Snowden?
(Maybe all millennial hipsters look alike to me.)
and also Alex Soros whom I think photos of whom with various derps is also being misidentified as “Charlie”
It’s all that soi milk.
Gen, maybe the earth is experiencing a world wide epidemic of AIWS (Alice in Wonderland Syndrome) or Liddle Syndrome, or a variation of either.
I only found out in the last couple of hours that these Syndromes are a REAL THING.
Digging right now into AIWS after I fell into a big Rabbit hole hopping around, looking for “Liddle” things after 45’s mention of the word several times.

AIWS
Words possibly associated with AIWS (Alice in Wonderland Syndrome)I am seeing in reading published medical literature are epilepsy, blood disease, Migraine, Malaria, encephalitis, parasitism, hallucination, time distortion, Micropsia, Macropsia, Metamorphopsia, Teleopsia, Chloropsia, zoom vision, akinetopsia, varicella, Epstein-Barr, Mononucleosis, Lyme,auditory hallucination,etc.,
manifesting in children as well as adults.
Alice in Wonderland syndrome
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_in_Wonderland_syndrome
Alice in Wonderland syndrome (AIWS), also known as Todd’s syndrome or dysmetropsia, is a neuropsychological condition that distorts perception. People may experience distortions in visual perception such as micropsia (objects appearing small), macropsia (objects appearing large), pelopsia (objects appearing to be closer than they are), or teleopsia (objects appearing to be further away than they are). Size distortion may occur in other sensory modalities as well.
The average age of the start of Alice in Wonderland syndrome is six but it is very normal for some to experience the syndrome from childhood to their late 20s.It is also thought that this syndrome is hereditary because many parents who have AiWS report their children having it as well.

So much out there to read. These are just a few of the websites I found.
That’s weird.
Liddle Syndrome is an autosomal disorder caused by mutations in Y-subunit. Y??? You don’t think this has anything to do with Owl/Y...?
Naaaah that’s just ridiculous.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liddle%27s_syndrome
Liddle’s syndrome, also called Liddle syndrome is a genetic disorder inherited in an autosomal dominant manner that is characterized by early, and frequently severe, high blood pressure associated with low plasma renin activity, metabolic alkalosis, low blood potassium, and normal to low levels of aldosterone. Liddle syndrome involves abnormal kidney function, with excess reabsorption of sodium and loss of potassium from the renal tubule, and is treated with a combination of low sodium diet and potassium-sparing diuretics (e.g. amiloride). It is extremely rare, with fewer than 30 pedigrees or isolated cases having been reported worldwide as of 2008.
The treatment is with a low sodium (low salt) diet and a potassium-sparing diuretic that directly blocks the sodium channel. Potassium-sparing diuretics that are effective for this purpose include amiloride and triamterene; spironolactone is not effective because it acts by regulating aldosterone and Liddle syndrome does not respond to this regulation. Amiloride is the only treatment option that is safe in pregnancy. Medical treatment usually corrects both the hypertension and the hypokalemia, and as a result these patients may not require any potassium replacement therapy.
Liddle syndrome resolves completely after kidney transplantation.
