“And that’s because the key to success for weight loss is, and continues to be, caloric intake.”

I found this a fascinating documentary, it’s worth watching twice. On first Swatch, letting the plot unfold, so many issues and questions. On second watch, I distinctly disliked Sarma, still deflecting responsibility, sbottom line despite the lasagna, narcissist meets narcissist, chaos ensues.

It’s Loki Jim, but not as we know him.

Maybe an ignorant question, but are unsweetened oat milks not an option yet? I’m big time Team Soy Milk since I became lactose intolerant in the early 2000's, and maybe it’s a little sneaky, but longtime non-dairy milk drinkers know that ‘original’ means ‘sweetened’. Soy tastes just fine unsweetened and I suspect oat…

I’ve been lifting for 36 years..I’m 68. Lift as heavy as you can! You will not get huge..I am slender, though my arms are obviously muscular because I like them like that.

Just for what it’s worth
I have been meaning to improve my swimming - which was basically total shit, I had enough ability to not drown for a while.

Started going once a week. Liked the idea, kind of hated the activity.
Decided it was now or never, committed to the pool going once a day.
Weeks of fucking embarrassing…

I broke down and re-entered the gym back at the beginning of November. The gym does a pretty serious job of keeping everyone on the mask train, and I have called out those that chose not to follow it, and the gym kicked them out. I bring my own bottle of cleaner with me and wipe down before and after anything I use. I…

I haven’t been to my gym since March. And I went five or six days a week for about 20 years. Until I get vaccinated, I won’t be back. The thought of being in the spin studio with a dozen other people, all breathing extremely hard from the exertion, for 45 minutes, fills me with fear. Masks are required, but it seems…

I’m GenX. In 2008, I retired from the Canadian civil service so I could take a decade off to travel. I thought I’d job hop, but quickly realised that I needed to start working for myself — I ended up being a pioneer of the digital nomad lifestyle. I started off in transcription in the summer of 2011 because the…

I’d like to point out another aspect of job hopping that is mentioned in the beginning but isn’t really addressed.
 
For reference: I’m a late Gen X, and was lucky to have been insulated during the 2000 recession (I got super lucky), the 2008 recession (switched careers, super lucky) and that dystopia we live in now…

Haha yes I was so confused by that comment as well. My partner and I have a shared calendar and we tend to confirm any plans that may affect the other, even more so now that we have a young child who requires a ton of planning around.

I saw a short video on YouTube by Daily Gist where it was removed. Seeing a Black surgeon carefully and tenderly attending to a Black woman’s hair and scalp moved me to tears. I was certain her hair was done. He found a way to resolve the problem while preserving what was important to her. It reminded me of the sister…

I dunno, maybe its just me, but I think I’d appreciate a partner checking in on how we’d done this week/month/year...

But she purposely used Gorilla Glue, she knew exactly what it was and didn’t get confused. She admitted this.

I believe they were going for an “Apple to Apple” comparison, and B&J doesn’t even attempt to make an edible plain non-dairy ice cream alternative. There options are all loaded down with flavorings and candy, which mask the taste of the non-dairy alternative.

Yeah, mine too. However, my company will remotely shut down my laptop without notice. It also has an extremely long boot time due to the encryption and other dumb reasons. I have to wait through 5 loops of the same DELL boot logo each time. Not sure why.

My work computer has to stay on so they can push updates overnight when needed.

I use sleep because I like coming back to my PC and getting back to whatever as quickly as possible. I have no patience for slow systems, mine included. I get back, slap the space bar, my PC recognizes my face and ta-daa! I’m back where I left off.

It’s not throwing money away if it works for you.  

I know renting is technically like throwing money away but not having to deal with all the maintenance shit of one’s home just keeps sounding nicer and nicer.
