So when Spinoza refers to substance, is he referring to the conditioning of the cells? It’s the substance on the outside of the cells that makes them depressed. The substance is conservative.
The rhinoplasty corrects the breathing problem. No longer making the substance the brain is able to work out the cellular conditioning in time. Little by little the cells improve. The person thinks clearly better after the rhinoplasty. This is my recent reading of Spinoza.
Today is his best day.

There is more writing on Gevluef about Rhinoplasty. I mentioned Spinoza. I believe that he was also distinguishing the dominant and recessive traits of the conscience. This is a major theme at Gevluef: see Conscience Page (about 9 pages).
UC Santa Cruz students head to class this week along Porter-Kresge Road as Kresge College is rebuilt behind them. The college was founded in the early 1970s and according to a press release from UCSC, was designed with “concepts of collaboration and participatory democracy at the core of its identity.” Kresge is being rebuilt in a two-phase project and the first phase, which included three new residence halls and a new academic center, has already been completed. The second phase is expected to be completed late this year. Kresge was the sixth college established at UCSC and was named after Kresge Foundation and K-Mart founder Sebastian Kresge. San Francisco-based architecture firm Studio Gang received the Honor Award for the Kresge College renewal project at the San Francisco chapter of the American Institute of Architects’ 2024 Architecture Awards.
