Life is really very simple. I didn’t say “easy”, I said simple! Today, we have a blank canvas, as we do any other day. We get to start anything and everything anew, moment by moment. Embrace the heartfelt messages in these 3 videos and they will open a whole new reality for your life. (Link is below) https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/life-is-really-very-simple/

Life Power Tip
If you want to achieve a goal you have set, the most crucial part is to DECIDE to manifest it. Repeatedly I have seen evidence that not only people, yet also the universe itself, can sense a lack of commitment to a goal. If your consciousness is divided against itself, do you think it will commit all its internal resources to your goal? Will your subconscious give you all the energy and creativity it possibly could, or will it hold back?

Action
Practise relaxation techniques to help calm your days.

Challenge
Keep a journal to remind yourself that you are on a mission to get to a place of purpose.

Quote
My barn burned down, and now I can see the moon. -Masahide

Clearing
Have a kitchen spot for lunch-making supplies, and another for breakfast.

Question
What can you see about any setbacks, which may actually benefit you?

Affirmation
I choose to always believe I am heading in the right direction.

Uplifting Extra
You’ve probably told yourself at some point, “I just need to be tougher on myself”. It sounds sensible, however what if it’s the very reason you keep running in circles? Harsh self-criticism feels like discipline, yet all it really does is drain your energy and crush your confidence. The truth is, if beating yourself up worked, you’d already be flawless. I’ve written a short piece about why self-compassion actually creates more resilience, motivation and courage than the harshest inner critic ever could. You’ll see how the science backs it up and why a kinder voice in your head leads to bigger results in real life. (Link is below) https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/self-compassion/

Tonight we’re watching a very old movie called Blow Out.
We just thought we’d give it a try because it has John Travolta, who’s usually good value in movies.
My husband reminded me that we’re watching a 45 year old movie, made in 1981.
I was shocked, 1981 feels like just yesterday. 😲

Let’s try and avoid death in small doses, reminding ourselves that being alive requires an effort far greater than the simple fact of breathing.

Life Power Tip
If you want time, you must make it. We all have 24/7/365. If you want more time then start allocating it and scheduling time to fit the actions and activities to which you are fully committed. If you really look…who is actually “stealing” your time, and while we are at it, your money? Same rules apply. Quit living in the “someday”. ‘Someday’ is not a day of the week!

Action
Play a musical instrument, regardless of knowing how.

Challenge
Just simply be the right person, in the right place, and at the right time.

Quote
Most people pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it. -Soren Kierkegaard

Clearing
Have a handy access list of all professional services e.g. plumber, dentist.

Whether you stand still or move ahead, life circumstances still come at you! Why not have a say in what enters your life?

I spotted this article, titled What You Say Matters, in the free Living On Purpose ezine from Ken Keis, President & CEO of CRG International Inc., and received permission to post it at the Forward Steps blog for you.

Life Power Tip
If you cannot see the wood for the trees, it is time to step away for a bit! “Every now and then go away, have a little relaxation, for when you come back to your work your judgment will be surer; since to remain constantly at work will cause you to lose your power of judgment. Go some distance away because the work appears smaller and more of it can be taken in at a glance, and a lack of harmony or proportion is more readily seen.” — Leonardo da Vinci.

Action
Plant a herb garden outside your kitchen door.

Challenge
Just for one day, let go of control. Ease it up a little today.

Quote
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning. – Mahatma Gandhi.

Clearing
Have a central place to list items you need to get, avoid many short trips.

Question

Affirmation

If you have 93 government employees per 1,000 people in Australia, you mathematically "own" a share of roughly 169 to 183 hours of public sector labor every single year.
That breaks down to about 3.5 hours a week just for you.
Of course, you can't actually get them to mow your lawn or fill out your paperwork. Those hours are already fully spoken for by the teachers in our schools, nurses in public hospitals, police officers, and defense personnel.
Still, it's a wild metric to wrap your head around: 169+ hours of government labor per citizen, every year.

Mind you, I based that on incorrect figures when we only include tax payers.
There are roughly 2.6 million government employees in Australia (federal, state, and local combined).
When you break that down against the people keeping the lights on:
• There is 1 government employee for every 6.2 people who lodge a tax return (16.1 million lodgers).
• There is 1 government employee for every 4.5 people who pay net positive income tax (11.7 million net taxpayers).
That means for every 1,000 net Australian taxpayers, there are 222 public sector workers.
The vast majority of these aren't bureaucrats in Canberra, but frontline workers like public school teachers, nurses, and police officers funded by your state and federal taxes.

🎙️ EPISODE SUMMARY

Jordan and Anja discuss what the draft proposes for digital currency exchanges, how it connects to international reporting frameworks, and why Jordan believes the detail being left to regulations matters.

Anja explains why she questions the reporting of transfers to your own wallet, and why she believes the safety of Bitcoin holders deserves more attention. Jordan shares his view on unrealised capital gains and superannuation.

The conversation then widens to the cost of government in Australia, libertarian ideas explained in plain language, the role of the state, community, and the rise of One Nation.

🔑 KEY TAKEAWAYS

Jordan says the draft would require exchanges to report transaction information to the ATO
Jordan is concerned the draft leaves much of the detail to regulations made by the minister
Anja questions why transfers to your own wallet need to be reported
Anja highlights personal safety risks if holder data is leaked
Jordan suspects unrealised capital gains could be a future focus for crypto
Jordan describes libertarianism as the premise that you are the best person to make decisions for yourself and your family
Both guests encourage viewers to read the draft and form their own view

Life Power Tip
If nothing changes… nothing changes! Taking even a small, different action breaks the loop that keeps the same results repeating. To have something different you must think, be and do different. If you truly want something to change, decide to be the catalyst for that change. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “You must be the change you want to see in the world”.

Action
Pinpoint the commonality in your happiest moments so you can recreate them.

Challenge
Invest a small amount of time each day in your continuing education.

Quote
Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. -Rob Siltanen

A friend reminded me this morning that we had seen this. I’d forgotten all about that. Oops!

Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds performed live at the Burswood Dome in Perth, Australia, on Saturday, September 8, 2007. This spectacular arena event brought Jeff Wayne's iconic 1978 progressive rock concept album to life using a mix of live musicians, a multi-national cast, and cutting-edge multimedia effects.
Key Elements of the Perth Performance
• The Production: Jeff Wayne personally conducted the 40-piece String Orchestra and the 10-member Black Smoke Band. The production featured a 3-ton, 30-foot tall Martian Fighting Machine that hovered over the stage, fired real heat rays into the audience, and scanned the stadium.
• The Narration: The late Richard Burton appeared "in sight and sound" via a giant, high-definition floating hologram to deliver his legendary performance as George Herbert, The Journalist.
• The Cast: The show blended original musicians from the 1978 album with well-known Australian talent:
• Justin Hayward (from The Moody Blues) re-created his original role singing "The Sung Thoughts of the Journalist" (including the hit Forever Autumn).
• Chris Thompson reprised his role as the Voice of Humanity.
• Australian Idol runner-up Shannon Noll starred as Parson Nathaniel.
• Australian stage star Rachael Beck played Beth (the Parson's wife).
• Australian musical theatre actor Michael Falzon performed as the Artilleryman

The Spiritual Conspiracy by Brian Piergrossi

Text from the video:

On the surface of the world right now there is war and violence and things seem dark,
But calmly and quietly, at the same time, something else is happening underground.

An inner revolution is taking place and certain individuals are being called to a higher light.
It is a silent revolution,
From the inside out,
From the ground up.

It is time for me to reveal myself.
I am an embedded agent of an secret, undercover, clandestine, global operation.
A spiritual conspiracy.
We have sleeper cells in every nation on the planet.

You won’t see us on the TV.
You won’t read about us in the newspaper,
You won’t hear about us on the radio.
We don’t seek any glory,
We don’t wear any uniform,
We come in all shapes and sizes, colors and styles.

Most of us work anonymously.
We are quietly working behind the scenes in every country and culture of the world.
Cities big and small, mountains and valleys, in farms and villages, tribes and remote islands.

You could pass by one of us on the street and not even notice.
We go undercover.
We remain behind the scenes.
It is of no concern to us who takes the final credit,
But simply that the work gets done.

Occasionally we spot each other in the street,
We give a quiet nod and continue on our way so no one will notice.

During the day many of us pretend we have normal jobs,
But behind the false storefront at night is where the real work takes place.

Some call us the “Conscious Army”.
We are slowly creating a new world with the power of our minds and hearts.
We follow, with passion and joy,
Our orders from the Central Command,
The Spiritual Intelligence Agency.

We are dropping soft, secret love bombs when no one is looking:
Poems
Hugs
Music
Photography
Movies
Kind words
Smiles
Meditation and prayer
Dance
Social activism
Websites
Blogs
Random acts of kindness.

We each express ourselves in our own unique ways with our own unique gifts and talents.

“Be the change you want to see in the world”,
That is the motto that fills our hearts.
We know it is the only way real transformation takes place.
Quietly and humbly we have the power of all the oceans combined.

Our work is slow and meticulous,
Like the formation of mountains.
It is not even visible at first glance,
And yet with it entire tectonic plates shall be moved in the centuries to come.

Love is the new religion of the 21st century.

You don’t have to be a highly educated person,
Or have any exceptional knowledge to understand it.

It comes from the intelligence of the heart,
Embedded in the timeless evolutionary pulse of all human beings.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
Nobody else can do it for you.

We are now recruiting.
Perhaps you will join us
Or already have…
All are welcome…
The door is open.

Wisdom On The Web
The law of attraction states that whatever you focus on and intend in your life, shall be delivered to you. In The Point Of Power, Peter Baksa proposes and illustrates 3 principles of “intend, declare & detach”, together explaining how to operate the law of attraction within the context of quantum mechanics. Everyone, regardless of circumstances, can achieve incredible results. Peter used techniques that he writes about in his books to achieve this own success.

Life Power Tip
Identify your passions and deep desires. Before you even put pen to paper in writing your goals, get very clear about the things that drive you most, the things that can have you lost in ‘the zone’ for hours, the things that get you excited and light up your eyes. Your goals need to be goals that will produce a result of true fulfilment when accomplished.

Action
Pick a flower to put in a vase on your desk, or someone else’s.

Challenge
Instead of emailing or phoning colleagues who are at the other end of the office, go and talk to them.

Quote
Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before. -Jacob A. Riis

Clearing
Sleep before 10pm has an amazing effect on next day’s productivity.

Question
What beauty can you find in your environment today to lift your spirit?

Affirmation
I choose to feel increasingly healthy and energized.

Uplifting Extra
Ever ask yourself the question, What’s missing from my life? What would you say if I told you there was a way to shortcut 30 years of studying self-improvement books? What if I told you that, in the process of understanding that shortcut, you will find yourself among a very rare group of men and women? Perhaps 1 in 100,000, have solved the one question that has plagued humanity since the beginning of time. (Link is below) https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/missing-from-my-life/

My husband told me that this song was banned at one time. I didn't know that. I remember hearing it lots. Maybe because I was in Holland and I had access to Radio Caroline. A pirate radio station in the middle of the North Sea. 🤣🧡 Guess I was a rebel from my teenage years. Here I am on Nostr with my sats. 🤣😂

An eagle flew over my house this evening. Shame I didn’t have my phone nearby. The smaller birds in my yard alerted me, I know when they’re panicking if there’s a bird of prey nearby. :) Definitely an eagle, as I’ve often seen the kestrel/kite. Checked to see what it might have been on AI: You may have spotted a Wedge-tailed Eagle (Australia's largest bird of prey with a massive wingspan up to 2.8 meters) or a Whistling Kite / Nankeen Kestrel, which are much more common in urban and suburban Perth skies.

Start with one habit that you really want to change. Remember that habits can also include the types of thoughts you repeatedly have.

Instead of doing what you usually do, think of something to shake things up a little.

Unreal. Mainstream media is disgusting. So far, this is an accident. Nothing has been proven. Now they’re using words like “truck attack”. Ridiculous.
Many people in the bush have a pocket knife in their pocket or car? I’d say the character was drugged to the hilt, saw a car space, did a U-turn to get the spot. She was coming around from trunk of her car to the side and horrible timing caused the accident. As for driving over her multiple times, if DUI he likely panicked and tried to back up away from the person he hit.
Our PM, his ministers and “his media” are making good use of this.
Never let a crisis go to waste!

A while back, Jodi & I completed this interview together. Jodi Chapman is a bestselling author and an award-winning blogger. She wears her heart on her sleeve and tends to attract others into her life who do the same. It’s her heart’s desire to help us plug back into life by connecting with our soul. Sometimes easier to disconnect from our true voice, our soul, our purpose, the deeper meaning of life, than it is to stay connected. Life gets so busy, we’re all driven by our to-do lists. DOing sometimes seems to be given more priority than BEing. (Link is below) https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/connecting-with-our-soul/

Life Power Tip
Identify where you went off course. If things are not turning out as you had hoped, get honest with what went awry. It is not until you can see things, as they truly are that you can make adjustments that will swing you back in the right direction.

Action
Pet an animal or look at some lovely images of animals.

Challenge
Initiate and/or maintain a healthy diet.

Quote
Life really does take some planning, and doing, and persisting. Trouble is, most operate only on a third of what it takes. -Doug Firebaugh

Clearing
Sort operation manuals and warranty cards; are any for old products?

Question

Affirmation
I choose to always bring myself back to a state of feeling good.

Uplifting Extra
More money. More love. More adventure. More health. More spiritual connection. More acceptance of yourself. It can all be yours, anything you dream of and desire. In fact, it’s meant to be yours. Abundance in all areas of life is your birthright. Yet many people grow up and still live with scarcity and fear-based mindsets. They’ve lost their connection to their natural state of abundance. If you want to turn your dreams of abundant life into a reality, you need to cultivate an abundance mindset. During this free 90-minute online training, Lisa’s going to share the most important step you can take, starting today, to begin turning your dreams of an abundant life into a reality.

The eight principles of fun is an irresistibly funky animated movie designed to help you create more fun in your life. (Link is below) https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/principles-of-fun/

Life Power Tip
How ready are you for change? Each time you begin a new project in an area of your life, what is it that stops you or slows you down after a brief period? Find out and put something in place to manage these blockages. Whether these blocks are physical or imagined, they need strategies for moving through them to go where you are going.

Action
Pay more attention to when your energy is best. Recreate those situations often.

Challenge
Increase wisdom in knowing the difference between the things you can change, and cannot change.

Have seen several goannas at various times and places. I recall one very large one when we stopped for a coffee and some food along a highway on the way from Melbourne to Canberra. It same out of the bush from behind us and walked straight up to us. Naturally we did not feed it. It's not what you do with wildlife. Though we did give it some water. I'd say it probably met many tourists this way. The wooden picnic table likely has become its haunt. 😀🧡

If you want something enough, you will find a way to do it. If you are not very motivated, you will either not attempt to reach a goal, or if you do, your efforts will be half-hearted and you will attain no measurable results. Read this excellent story titled, “Remember! It’s Your Baby”. Motivation and intention are far more significant elements of success than circumstances. (Link is below) https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/remember-its-your-baby/

Life Power Tip
Help yourself first. Consider the advice that you receive when you fly in an airline…in any emergency, place an oxygen mask on yourself first, otherwise you won’t be able to help anyone. Similarly, with any first aid training, you must check for dangers to yourself first. Again, that is because you are ineffective in helping another when you cause injury to yourself during the process.

Action
Pay for someone’s time at a parking meter.

Challenge
Increase the speed at which you walk everywhere.

Quote
Lack of persistence is one of the major causes of failure. Moreover, experience with thousands of people has proved that lack of persistence is a weakness common to the majority of people. It is a weakness that can be overcome by effort. -Napoleon Hill

Are you spending night after night, staring up at the ceiling? Do you often suffer from insomnia or sleeplessness? Trouble getting to sleep due to pain, stress, caffeine addiction? Thousands of people use special ‘brainwave’ audio sessions to get to sleep. Just slip on your headphones and click play. It works by using special tones and pulses, which help influence your brainwave patterns. Listening to this audio gently takes you down from a waking ‘alpha’ state into a deep ‘delta’ sleep.

_________________________

JohnnyMilkweed (nprofile…yhn2) Here are some funny, pun-filled name ideas for a Jerusalem Cricket serving as a Nostr brand ambassador, grouped by theme:

🌐 Nostr & Tech Puns

• Damus Earthworm – A play on the popular Nostr client Damus.
• Zap Bug – Named after Nostr's instant lightning network tips ("zaps").
• Relay Ray – Nostr relies on relays to pass data; this cricket passes soil.
• The Decentralized Digger – He doesn't trust centralized servers or shallow topsoil.
• Crypto-Cricket – Simple, punchy, and highly accurate.
• Nostr-damus – The classic pun, but this time he predicts the future from underground.

🪱 "Child of the Earth" Puns

• Sandy Protocol – Sounds like a high-tech security system, but it's just his favorite terrain.
• Clay Jensen – A very grounded name for a very grounded bug.
• Sub-Terra – Sounds like a cool crypto native, but he literally lives sub-terra.
• Deep State – Because he lives deep in the dirt, completely independent of government oversight.

🥔 Potato Bug Jokes (Jerusalem Crickets are often called Potato Bugs)

• Spudnik – A space-age name for a bug that just looks like an angry potato.
• The Hash-Brown Rate – A play on a network's hash rate.
• Tater Tot – Because he's small, round, and lives in the dirt.

🎭 Irony & Vibe Names

• Gary – Just an incredibly mundane, corporate human name for an alien-looking subterranean monster.
• Sir Chomp-a-Lot – A nod to those massive, intimidating jaws they use to chew through roots.

Wisdom On The Web
There are slow and difficult ways to get things done and there are fast and easy ways to get the same things done. Use the fast and easy ways and you naturally save time. That’s found time that can be spent doing the things you love. It’s a matter of using the best time saving tips and systems to ensure you gain control of your precious time. If you save 10 minutes here, 20 minutes there and 30 minutes someplace else, you’ve found an entire extra hour to spend however you wish. Those extra minutes and hours add up quickly when you know the right time-saving tips and tools. Before you know it those extra hours will easily add up to days and even weeks of extra time in your life. Just think what that would do for the quality of your life. (Link is below) https://www.selfimprovementgift.com/forwardsteps/501-time-tips/

Life Power Tip
Heighten the feelings you generate around your desires. Your feelings are what play a vital role in the manifestation process. Increasing the good vibes that you have associated with any goals or desires, will move you forward in taking action with them, plus will cause others to step aboard too and help you in your quest. Energy is the source of manifestation and you need to increase personal momentum.

Action
Pat a cute kitten or puppy in a pet store.

Challenge
Include regular time in your schedule to enjoy yourself.

Quote
Keep in mind that you are always saying ‘no’ to something. If it isn’t to the apparent, urgent things in your life, it is probably to the most fundamental, highly important things. Even when the urgent is good, the good can keep you from your best, keep you from your unique contribution, if you let it. -Stephen Covey

Clearing
Go through every room and put things in their correct storage places.

Question
What are your most effective and ineffective boundaries?

Affirmation
I choose to feel that I am having fun.

On the road towards Broken Hill there were plenty of emus to be seen in the wild. It was the first time I saw them in the wild and at other times I had only seen them in nature reserves.

Very funny! :)

Life Power Tip
Having lots to do is a good thing. Being in overwhelm demonstrates that you are “up to stuff” in your life. It forces you to prioritize and tackle the important, as opposed to the urgent, and forces you to take out the non-effective activities such as television viewing or Internet browsing. When you are busy you are likely expanding as a person, and you are most likely moving toward the accomplishment of some desired targets. You work out ways to be more efficient with the day to day tasks which, in turn, allows you to accomplish yet more in future and to value your time.

Action
Participate in a community project.

Challenge
In your mind, greatly exaggerate the benefits achieved from the smallest of today’s tasks.

Quote
I’ve never been afraid to admit when I’ve made a mistake. It nearly drives me nuts sometimes, making mistakes. I keep telling myself I should be perfect, but that isn’t what we’re here for. Perfection isn’t an option for us; perfection is death, Micko. We’re here to learn and change, and that means making mistakes. -Greg Bear

Clearing
Go through every piece of paper on your desk, and deal with it.

Question
What are your highest priorities?

Affirmation
I choose to value my need for fun and light heartedness.

In this newly emerging world, with endless possibilities, new leaders are emerging daily. So here are 7 keys to being considered a world class leader. It’s important to understand that you have an important choice as two roads open before you: one is the road of power, the other that of force. The road to force is the lesser road and involves a lot of arguing, sleepless nights, stress and isolation. Whereas the road to power, is the road which leads you to cooperation, collaboration and success. (Link is below) https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/world-class-leader/

Col. Douglas Macgregor tells Kitco News anchor Jeremy Szafron that Saudi Arabia is "gonna go out of business," that a new commodity supercycle has begun, and that another U.S. strike on Iran would bring "years of scarcity" for oil and water across the Gulf.

Macgregor, a retired U.S. Army colonel who fought in the Gulf War and advised the acting Secretary of Defense, breaks down the Houthi strikes on Riyadh and why he says Turkey and Pakistan won't fight Saudi Arabia's war, why the Navy can't secure the Strait of Hormuz, why refining is the real bottleneck for copper, rare earths and critical minerals, why he sees China as the real winner in the Gulf, and the diesel crunch behind Washington's Russian diesel deal. In a rapid-fire round, he forecasts $150 to $200 oil next year and $10,000 gold by 2029.

Life Power Tip
Have the courage to set a big enough goal. Set new expectations for yourself and your life. Often we play small games in life because we have small targets, we have small visions for what we believe we could accomplish. Expand your view and create a few big goals that would completely thrill you if they came to fruition.

Action
Organize a weekend away with friends, sharing the costs of a cottage.

Challenge
In your body language, whenever possible practice keeping your arms open.

GN Nostriches ✨🌙💤

Yes, I have been fortunate enough to have seen these critters in the wild, in creeks of country Victoria, Australia plus at Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary. Such unique animals. 👀
Humans have done a good job of messing with their habitat. 😢😡 How many Aussie children will have that pleasure? 🥺

The platypus is one of the strangest animals on Earth, combining features from birds, reptiles, and mammals into a single river-dwelling species found in eastern Australia and Tasmania.

Egg-Laying Mammals (Monotremes)

• Monotreme status: They are one of only five surviving monotreme species—mammals that lay leathery eggs instead of giving live birth.
• Sweating milk: Females do not have nipples. Instead, they secrete milk through specialized skin pores on their belly, and their babies (called puggles) lap it up from the mother's fur.
• Single opening: They possess a cloaca, which is a single multi-purpose opening used for waste, reproduction, and laying eggs (a trait more common in reptiles and birds).

Weird Anatomy and Senses

• No stomach: Platypuses have no stomach; their esophagus connects directly to their intestines.
• No teeth: Instead of teeth, they use hard, keratinized grinding pads on their jaws and store food in cheek pouches along with river gravel to help mash it up.
• Blind and deaf underwater: When swimming, skin flaps cover their eyes and ears, making them temporarily blind and deaf while submerged.
• Electroreception superpower: To find food without seeing or hearing, their soft, duck-like bill uses roughly 40,000 electroreceptors to track the tiny electrical pulses of shrimp, worms, and insect larvae in the mud.
• 10 sex chromosomes: Unlike humans who have two sex chromosomes (X and Y), platypuses have 10 sex chromosomes (five pairs of XY or XX) that behave more like the sex chromosomes of birds.
• Biofluorescence: Under ultraviolet (UV) light, their fur absorbs light and glows a strange bluish-green color.

Venom and Defenses

• Venomous ankle spurs: Males have a sharp 12–18 mm keratin spur on each rear ankle that delivers a complex cocktail of venom.
• Morphine-resistant pain: The venom is not usually fatal to humans, but it causes excruciating, long-lasting pain that standard painkillers like morphine cannot easily relieve.
