An additional point to treadmills is that it’s easier on my knees and ankles. Also, I know we’re not supposed to talk to people at the gym but I chat --ever so briefly-- with the regulars that go at my times. It’s nice to say hi to a familiar face every now and again. As I’m getting older and do remote work, it’s useful for me.

I have a portable monitor just in case and I bust it out if there’s no monitor for me to plug in.

Whenever I hear about moths, I think about the moth scene in Lost between Charlie and Locke: https://youtu.be/kmXV5iOncT8?si=Wh_d_RCkKiclyiYF

Key swing state voters are apparently idiots.

(for some nostalgic Discovery vibes)

lol when I went vegan I used a lot of meat substitutes to get me over it. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good though!

I think it can depend on where you live and dry heat vs humid and stuff, but in general I agree.

I would sleep with a fan instead of turning on AC.

Go for a walk in the mornings if a run is too daunting. Gradually go up.

A problem I had is I’m too dedicated to some things and will run a lot and then injure myself by going too often or beyond what my body is capable of instead of ramping up in a healthy way. Then I wind up doing nothing again due to injury.

I think a lot of these “cab companies” use the tips to pay the drivers now and take more for themselves.

It’s okay, it’s hydro powered.

I love the 24 hour clock and living in London, UK I used it all the time. However, I remember one time I bought movie tickets at lunch for 17:30 and my brain thought it was for 7:30pm and I called my friend at the last moment saying: “you have to leave work early if we’re gonna make it!”

I don’t know why in sci-fi or other fiction, I love it when they use Terra. Not sure why I find that more believable.

Just like how the Supreme Court justices wouldn’t take away Roe V Wade …

Yeah, a lot of true crime involves grisly stuff and sometimes violent towards women that I sometimes need things packaged up nicer to get through an entire video.

I wonder how his listeners can keep hearing this same message for years?

It’s great but I’ve had greater sensitivity in my finger tips after trying to get used to it. Then typing hurt so I had to switch to a trackball and just regular vertical mouse. I miss the gestures for virtual desktops.

I feel like an idiot. I read “bear” and tilted my phone and squinted and all that. Time to go sleep.
