Okay I’ve been taking 4 scoops of creatine on waking at noon but then that’s really not enough and I have to take another by 6, but then by 10 I’m even more tired on 4 10-hour-old scoops and one four- than I had been on five scoops on waking before?
Like the one thing I’m thinking maybe it’s that I’m using a new scoop that’s easier to level off? So I’m not getting overage? And in fact maybe the previous scoop which didn’t come from a jar was just bigger than 1 standard creatine scoop all along?
I dunno. I’ll try again in two weeks, I’m getting real tired of thinking I’m about to hit 4 but then not
Realizing I just can’t ask people “wait what is that playing? do you hear that?” anymore because it might actually be the memory jukebox thing, and I might look crazy cause I’m legitimately hearing something in my head (bcuz I’m legitimately crazy)
Now that this flagpole is in place, after the holiday I will regularly be flying a “tea-stained Betsy Ross flag”, because it may just signify “American history!” but that’s probably the right thing to sign the front door of my residence with.
i think one reason (of many) that anime appealed to me in my early teens was that it felt like it was being marketed to me. not sure to what degree this is true, but a lot of western animation gave me the vibe that it was being marketed to my parents as something that would be “appropriate” for me to watch
Yeah it’s not like fucking shonen isn’t packed with like, Prosocial Messages and Themes About Growing Up either, it’s just "viewer stand-in has an epic adventure where he’s terribly important to everything and gets some chicks" was far more satisfying than “viewer stand-in navigates some social situation like he’s Supposed To and somehow everything breaks in his favor for that to work out, tune in next week for a completely different version of the same thing”
there’s no way it’s true, but a part of me wants to believe that Elon Musk is, like, some sort of galaxy-brained Terra-Ignota-character long-game utilitarian
who thinks “if we keep letting social media rot our minds, we’ll never make it to Mars, as a species”
and so, in an act of noble self-sacrifice, has taken it upon himself to destroy the worst – the most consequentially mind-rotting – of the social networks
even if he has to sacrifice his business empire to do it, even if he has to make himself a laughingstock in the public eye … it’s worth it, you know. for the greater good. for Humanity. for Mars.
low prior here but you can’t say the evidence doesn’t keep piling up
